Woodlands Castle

The feel

Situated in the heart of Somerset and nestled within 12 acres of private parkland is Woodlands Castle, a 17^th century country house wedding venue. Owned by Sir Benjamin Slade, the house has remarkable period character and charm inside and out.

Our Orchard Suite is the largest room in the house, the walls are opulently hung with old masters and the large regency windows are framed with pale gold silk curtains to match the guilt gold cornices that have been lovingly restored. This room is perfect for smaller wedding parties.

The Ruishton Suite is a beautiful blue room at the front of the house and overlooks the rose trellised veranda and woodland gardens beyond. The original Georgian window seat provides a relaxing place to sit and is a gorgeous backdrop for photos. This room is licensed for small civil ceremonies.

The stunning Stoke Suite is one of our bridal room, it’s light and airy with its double aspect windows and has lovely views over the grounds and pond, perfect for bridal preparations.

Our Garden Pavilion is nestled in the walled garden overlooking the grounds. This is our largest and most versatile room which is fantastic for wedding receptions. It can seat up to 200 people for wedding breakfasts. This room is lit with mood lighting chandeliers, the walls are draped with ivory linings and the ends are glass giving the space a modern, light and airy feel. We have purposely created this wonderful space to allow wedding couples the option to work with any colour scheme or theme although it is beautiful as it is.

Licensed to hold wedding ceremonies both inside and out, you can spend your entire day here. For summer ceremonies, the Victorian Veranda and Garden Pavilion are an enchanting choice with summer roses bursting with colour and delight, while the beautiful rooms indoors offer the perfect spot for romantic ceremonies during colder spells.

With a brimming address book of the very best wedding best suppliers, and years of experience of creating stunning wedding days, Woodlands Castle are confident they can bring your dream day to life.
