About
The venue is built around a converted former church that retains characterful stonework and period features. The estate embraces rural charm with views across the Somerset Levels and Mendip Hills, delivering an intimate, rustic backdrop that suits both simple civil ceremonies and more elaborate country weddings.
Facilities
The venue provides an indoor ceremony space. For receptions, access is available to kitchen facilities for caterers, tables and table linen for a set number of guests, toilets, parking, and an outdoor area suitable for drinks, mingling, or marquee hire. Additional wedding features such as the Tipsy Mare bar, garden furniture and simple lighting help create a welcoming event atmosphere.
Capacities
The main indoor space seats up to 120 guests for a ceremony and will typically accommodate around 65 seated guests for a wedding breakfast; the total permitted number of guests in the evening can reach up to 150. Couples who want larger guest numbers commonly add a marquee on the lawn to expand reception capacity and create a flexible layout for dining and dancing.
Catering
Catering is flexible: the venue offers ceremony-only hire or packages that include reception use of the kitchen and table settings, while couples may also bring approved external caterers. Options range from informal buffet or grazing-style service to sit-down meals provided through recommended suppliers, and welcome drinks or canapé service can be arranged to suit the chosen package.
Accommodation
On-site accommodation includes three en-suite glamping pods with kitchenettes and outdoor balconies plus a three-bedroom cottage called Tor View, which can house larger groups or family parties. A small number of electric hook-ups are available for caravans or campervans. The combination of pods and cottage makes overnight stays convenient for couples and guests travelling from afar.
