Clearwell Castle - a picturesque wedding setting

Clearwell Castle, in Gloucestershire, is without a doubt the ultimate romantic wedding destination. If your dream is to be king and queen for the day, then you need to visit this beautiful historic setting on Sunday, 24th January for the open day event.

Located in the Forest of Dean and within close proximity to the Cotswold, Clearwell Castle makes the perfect venue for a grand wedding celebration. In 2015, it underwent a series of refurbishments including the complete refurbishment of the Cellar Bar, which now offers a modern and vibrant space to dance the night away, and adding a majestic gold aisle carpet to the Ballroom.

In addition, 2016 will see the complete refurbishment of the Baynham Suite, one of 15 luxury bedrooms available for the night of your wedding. Offering a picturesque alternative for summertime nuptials, the Wedding Gazebo can host an outside ceremony overlooking the Castle.

Mamhead Estate: a wedding venue with history and charm

With a motto like 'Ubi amor ibi fides', meaning 'Where there is love, there is trust', Mamhead House is a superb setting for exchanging vows and celebrating your wedding day. Renowned for its historic features and the love story that led to its creation - Sir Robert Newman built it for his bride Mary as a marriage gift - this prestigious venue is now open for weddings. 

Couples can choose between 10 elegant reception rooms and there is even a separate Orangery, all of which retain period character and charm. Fully restored to its original splendour, this hidden gem is set within 166 acres of manicured gardens and offers amazing views along the East Devon coast. 

A unique wedding setting, Mamhead Estate also includes 27 luxurious bedrooms, a church, an Italian style terrace and sunken gardens beautifully designed by the famous Lancelot 'Capability' Brown. 

Adding to Mamhead's picturesque setting is the Grade II listed Castle, which was designed by Anthony Salvin and is a copy of the 14th century Belsay Castle in Northumberland. 

If you're seeking a private and exclusive stately home with stunning architecture to host your wedding celebration, look no further than Mamhead House!
