HAMSWELL HOUSE 07710 727 773 www.hamswellhouse.co.uk WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT? In the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty stands the historic Hamswell House and its romantic 18 th - century gardens. A fine example of English Renaissance architecture, the stately home is located within its own private estate. LET’S CELEBRATE! Couples are given exclusive use of the venue. Seating up to 40 people inside and more on the lawn, The Orangery features glorious high-arched windows and a Cotswold stone roof. After the formalities, guests are free to enjoy drinks on the terrace and soak up the panoramas before exploring the walled gardens, terraced herb garden and wisteria-clad pergola. Receptions are held in a custom-built marquee (240 guests). WE LOVE… Smaller wedding parties of up to 40 invitees can take advantage of a special all- inclusive package. PRISTON MILL 01225 423 894 www.pristonmill.co.uk WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT? With two picturesque venues on site, guests approach Priston Mill past the herb garden and farmhouse on the left and the water wheel to the right. Just six miles from Bath, it’s surrounded by green fields and a flowing brook. The Watermill covers three floors and stands proud in the centre of stunning gardens beside the mill pond. Blue shutters and climbing roses evoke a French feel, while The Tythe Barn is nestled in serene English country gardens. The interiors are full of rustic charm, with original features, soft lighting and cosy furniture complementing the exposed stone and brick. LET’S CELEBRATE! When the sun is shining, the Pergoda is a wonderful outdoor ceremony option. Indoor celebrations are held in The Watermill (90 guests), with its tall beams and Juliet balcony, or the Tythe Barn (150 guests) for bigger gatherings. Although built in the 1720s, it has everything a modern wedding could need. WE LOVE… Guests can marvel at the mechanics of the impressive water wheel from a glass floor. www.indi ahobson.co.uk www.rosi ehardy.com 16
