Clevedon Hall

Fantastic photo-opportunities abound as this magnificent Victorian country mansion now holds the prestigious Grade II*-listing, thanks to England's 'National Heritage' organisation. This coveted accreditation reflects just a small part of what Clevedon Hall has to offer all those who are looking to marry within its delightful surroundings.

With a whole hoard of rooms and various flexible configurations at your disposal, it could easily be argued that Clevedon Hall is one of the Bristol area's most versatile hireable country houses.

Exclusively yours for the entire wedding day, you and your guests would be free to wander through the halls, explore the stunning landscaped gardens or take a leisurely stroll by the lake.

History

This Grade II*-listed Victorian country mansion has witnessed several changes of ownership over the 160 years of its existence. It was originally constructed in 1850 by local architects J Foster and J Wood as a residence for inventor and sugar refiner Conrad Finzel. Then called Frankfurt Hall, after the German town near his birthplace, it has undergone many additions and alterations and was subsequently owned by a Bristol shipbuilder, and then housed St Brandon's School from 1945 to 1991.

The neo-Jacobean exterior exhibits the beautiful oolitic limestone – amongst other Mendip stones - for which North Somerset is so widely known. Step back from this impeccably designed edifice and take in the stunning vista that is presented by the landscaped gardens. With an impressive mixture of shrubs, lawns, bushes, trees and natural wildlife, you could easily lose yourselves in this serene paradise during the quieter moments of your wedding day.

Facilities

Clevedon Hall's multiplicity of useable rooms has to be one of its greatest features. Tie the knot in the magnificent Great Hall, toast your future health with a champagne reception in the Conservatory, then move on through to the atmosphere-rich Grand Library for your formal wedding breakfast.

Once the more formal aspects of the day are over with, it's time to discard the jackets, loosen ties, kick off the high heels and dance the night away. Whether you choose to celebrate in the Great Hall or in the elegant and intimate Snug is entirely up to you!

Photography

Make sure you take full advantage of the estate's plentiful photo-opportunities! Pose by the magnificent wide bay windows, in the Reception Hall with its grand staircase, or, if the weather smiles, on its balcony.

Step out for a few moments of fresh air, strike a pose by your wedding carriage on the spacious driveway, by the terracotta statue and fountain of Hebe, then maybe stroll down to the lake with your wedding photographer, taking in the idyllic, tranquil natural surroundings. Feel the salty breeze of the nearby Bristol Channel brushing your face, listen carefully and hear the gentle rhythmic swell of the Severn Estuary.

Catering

The magnificent food that complements the imposing grandeur of Clevedon Hall so perfectly is supplied by their highly-reputed in-house Michelin star trained head chef.

The head chef and his team will never just create a wedding menu from a predetermined list of food. Instead, they prefer to take your individual preferences strongly into account, in necessary balance with the twin influences of seasonal and local availability.

  • Alison & Martyn

    Martyn and I don’t have the words to thank you for the incredible stay and experience we have had with Clevedon Hall. From A to Z, it was a delight and pleasure to work with you all. We are ever so thankful to absolutely everyone who has played a part in making our wedding a truly memorable day that we will cherish forever. We received wonderful comments from our guests about the venue and the team, they left with sparkles in their eyes and were really impressed, as were we, by the very high standards that the team delivered.
    Thank you for your kindness, your warmth, and your professionalism in organising those three days for us. You have executed our vision to perfection; it was exactly what we wanted, and our wedding became a dream come true thanks to you. Thank you also to the Chef and his team, the food was delicious, and we are ever so grateful for your flexibility to meet our criteria, it was perfectly executed. Everything ran smoothly during the entire stay, the ability of the team to put everything in place and clean in the calm without disrupting anything is incredible.
    You are a fabulous team who have the incredible ability to give life to a vision and transform Clevedon Hall into a magical place where dreams come true and where people get to create wonderful memories that they will cherish forever.
    We had the dreamiest time surrounded by our family and friends. It was magnificent, and we are ever so pleased to have chosen Clevedon Hall for our wedding. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you!



  • Laura & Mike

    Your team were just wonderful throughout the whole day. Thank you so much. Everyone has said what a great wedding it was and how lovely the rooms were. The food was great as well, although my stomach was too fluttery to eat properly. Thanks again. I would 1000% recommend you guys to anyone. Big love.


  • Felicity & Jack

    We were absolutely delighted with the day - it was amazing. Personally, on the day it felt like nothing was too much to ask (albeit I didn't have to ask for anything as Jordan had already thought of it!), and I was really touched that you Jess were there also for the ceremony, as I definitely wasn't expecting this. I really appreciated the understanding of emotions and it felt like everything had been thought of. Everyone has said what an amazing day it was and a lovely venue.

  • Sara & Christopher

    We had the most perfect wedding day I could have ever imagined. Our guests had nothing but the highest of praise for how wonderful the day was. I was not asked to handle anything. It was such a refreshing change, and it overwhelmed me with gratitude for the whole CH staff. All in all, I could not envision a better day. It was straight out of a fairy tale. Thank you and Katie and the entire team for the best day of my life. All your hard-work and passion for hospitality does not go unnoticed.

  • Amelie & Ross

    The day was truly perfect, and I can't thank your staff enough. They were super professional and attentive throughout the day and really did make it a bit more special, so thank you for that. The rooms were also fantastic, and the setting is truly beautiful.

  • Natasha & Nathan

    We have nothing but amazing things to say about the venue and the staff that worked during the event. All of the staff working were professional, warm and quick to assist with anything asked, honestly made the event smooth running and enjoyable for us and our guests. We were so so pleased that we chose Clevedon Hall as the place to celebrate our special day. The food, venue, rooms everything was perfect and complimented by so many so thank you for everything!

  • Jess & Tom

    We would thoroughly recommend having a wedding at Clevedon Hall for anyone who is considering it. The house and grounds are picture perfect and being able to offer accommodation to some guests to stay the night meant having a special breakfast with our nearest and dearest the following morning, extending the fun of the wedding day a little longer. Thank you so much to the whole Clevedon Hall team, we so enjoyed the day, the venue and the food! It was even better than we thought it would be.

  • Hollie & Suki

    We had the best day ever! There are not enough words to explain how INCREDIBLE the Clevedon Hall team have been. From choosing the venue over a year ago through to our wedding, everything has been amazing. Jordan was so amazing on the day, so professional & made us feel like the guests of honour. Honestly everything from start to finish was just perfect. I cant give enough compliments to yourself, Jordan, Jarrod and the rest of the team! We would 100% recommend everyone getting married here.

  • Mikaela & Axel

    The wedding was absolutely amazing, thanks to you and Kyle. What a venue, what service, and what romance. Mikaela and Axel shared with me that they wouldn't have changed a single thing. Thank you so much! It exceeded all expectations. I wish I could thank every individual we encountered and who contributed by name. Please pass on our gratitude.

  • Alex & Josh

    The entire day was just everything we had hoped for & more. From the moment I arrived at the cottage with my bridesmaids I knew it was going to be a special weekend. You're all complete experts at what you do! We truly had the most out of this world, best day of our lives & we wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you a million times for helping our wedding dreams come true and for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime at your beautiful venue. We just hope we get to come back one day!

  • Abigail & James

    we are so so thankful of Clevedon hall and the staff for all our day. it was perfect thanks to the team and the hall, it really did look so amazing and the Xmas decorations were stunning and was an extra bonus on top of our decorations it made the day.

    We originally had another venue booked but when Clevedon said they had a cancellation on the dates we wanted we knew we had to move it! The original venue was cheaper but it’s true when they say you get what you pay for, the service up to the point we moved was not a patch on Clevedon not to mention it wasn’t as pretty & you couldn’t have exclusivity.

    The exclusivity was one of the best things ever, we had SO much space all day, having a winter wedding this was even more special, it also meant all the staff was there for us and to help only our wedding & the fact that it was only our guests in the venue all day made it extra special.

    All the bedrooms all the guests said how amazing they was even people with the standard rooms said how big and luxury the rooms was, the space in the hall was incredible and having it all to our self was so nice and intimate. People have not stopped talking about the day and saying how amazing it was and that it’s the best wedding they’ve been to, I’ve even had amazing messages from the suppliers about how amazing the day was and the venue was stunning and how helpful the staff was.

    Every single member of staff couldn’t have done more for us and our guests they all went above and beyond. It was like a seamless military operation nothing went wrong at all thanks to the staff!

    We want to say an extra special thanks to Lara and Jess, Jess was an amazing help up to the point of being handed over to Lara was so organised and put us so at ease and gave us trust that it was all going to be fine, we never had that at our old venue so I’m so thankful for that and having no worry from the point we moved the venue. Lara was absolutely incredible you literally made our day you was like the wedding fairy god mother she was so helpful and so on it, I will forever be thankful for the girls for making our day so special.

    The food was INCREDIBLE , all the guests have said multiple times it was the best brownie they’ve ever had and the best wedding food ever, the service was so quick and when we asked for cauliflower cheese we had hugggge bowls of it it was insane and for someone who loves a roast so much it was one of the best ones I’ve ever had and the cauliflower cheese was incredible.

    We will forever be thankful and wordswill never be able to explain how amazing the day was and how pleased we choose clevedon hall and not one thing about the day wasn’t perfect because of that it was worth every single penny and more!

  • Maria & Glynn

    We can’t thank you enough for everything you did to make our wedding day so unforgettable. It was simply perfect! We had the most magical time and we would do it all again in a heartbeat if we could.

    All of our guests said how beautiful the day was. Many have even said it was the best wedding they have ever attended. They commented on the amazing food, it was all hot when it arrived to each table, the stunning grounds; we were lucky enough to see the deer hopping around outside and we were again so impressed by how hard all the Clevedon Hall staff worked. Everyone was so friendly and nothing was ever too much to ask. The bedrooms were all immaculate and guests who stayed were really impressed to find their beds made and fresh towels waiting for them after returning from breakfast. You should all feel immensely proud of what you have achieved here, as not many places have such high standards.

    We left the next morning feeling so incredibly loved after what will always be the most special day of our lives. Clevedon Hall will always hold a very special place in our hearts and we will be forever grateful to you both (Lauren & Kyle) and everyone at Clevedon for making it such a successful and happy time.

    From the moment we had our first meeting, we honestly felt like the only couple to be getting married at Clevedon Hall. This was achieved by your enthusiasm and genuine excitement for our day. Your communication was excellent throughout. Thank you so much for living through the planning with us and for all your support.

    We are already looking for another excuse to return, you will definitely be seeing us again.

    Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

  • Jessie & Jon

    A big thank you for making our day so so special! From when we first looked around until checking out on Sunday everything was perfect. Thank you for answering all our questions and guiding us through the whole experience. It was better than we could have imagined and everything was perfect on the day! We have also had so many people saying how great the food was!!

  • Kate & Martin

    We had the most emotional, incredible, magical wedding at Clevedon Hall - it greatly surpassed all my expectations and my expectations were very high so I didn’t think that that was even a possibility!!!

    All we have is endless thank yous for Jess, Jordan and the rest of the team who went above and beyond to make everything perfect for us. The staff were so lovely, friendly and accommodating. Our guests are all still buzzing from the joy of the day and my phone still hasn’t stopped pinging with messages praising the staff, the venue, the food and the rooms. Clevedon Hall has a truly remarkably talented team and we are so grateful to all of them for making our wedding more special than we ever imagined it could be.

  • Jordan & Mike

    Words cannot express how thankful we are to you! You made our dream day become a reality, and it was more than I could ever have dreamed of!

    From start to finish, everything was no bother. Everyone was so attentive, so kind and so amazing which made us so calm and relaxed, nothing was too much trouble.
    I honestly cannot recommend Clevedon Hall enough, perfect from start to finish. There will never be enough words to say how thankful we are.

    We had our guests saying that it was the best wedding they’d been too, that the food was absolutely incredible and just overall how much of a beautiful venue it is.
    Thanks again for making our dream a reality, we’ll forever be grateful to you all.

  • Lisa & Darryl

    Our wedding was everything we both dreamed of, from the minute we first came to see Clevedon Hall back in Feb 2022, to our day at the end of September 2023. Every member of staff there have been such a joy to work with, especially Jess, our wedding coordinator, and Jordan, our event manager. All of our guests said how fabulous our day was - lots of "this is literally the nicest wedding I've ever been to" comments; lots of thank yous for the food (our wedding breakfast was amazing); and so many lovely comments about all the team on the day. Every single member of staff I spoke to were genuinely lovely and couldn't have done enough to make sure our day was everything we wanted it to be. The location is stunning and the hall itself beautiful, and we can't wait to see the photos with it as our backdrop.

    We simply had THE BEST DAY EVER, a day that truly was the happiest of our lives. Thank you

  • Jessie & Steve

    If you are looking for a wedding venue that will not only wow your guests but will also give you the wedding of your dreams look no further, you've found it in Clevedon Hall. From the moment I contacted Lauren at Clevedon Hall via email I have had nothing but a fantastic experience dealing with the whole team from start to finish. My husband (still sounds weird!) and I got married at the hall on 3rd September 2023 and we started our journey about 18 months before hand and looked at several venues, but just felt there was something special about Clevedon Hall. The fabulous grounds, the amazing bedrooms and the choices of spaces for ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening party all made our choice very easy. It was so important to me to never use the same space twice and I certainly didn't have to worry about that here!

    Lauren was a fantastic planner, super speedy via email, always so helpful with special requests or questions, friendly and fun at every planning meeting, Lauren we couldn't have done it without you!

    Special mention also to Lara, our on the day co-ordinator! You truly made the day spectacular, everything run with military precision, we didn't have to worry about anything. From making sure my bridesmaids had all they needed in the morning to handing me my G&T in the afternoon, you were a star!

    We chose the outdoor gazebo area for our ceremony which was beautiful with all the flowers and plants surrounding us, our drinks reception was outside as well and the grounds made a stunning back drop for our photos.

    Our wedding breakfast was in the library and the food was a triumph! Our guests loved every single thing they ate from the canapes, to the dessert (or two desserts as the groom had!) everything was so delicious. In the lead up to the wedding we had a tasting evening which included tonnes of yummy food and entertainment which was so much fun and a special little extra event to make planning your wedding even more exciting. All dietaries and allergies (we had a fair few!) were catered for so well and nothing was too much trouble to add in or change.

    Honestly we had the best day ever and in part it was down to how fantastic our venue and the team behind it was. Our guests have genuinely said it was one of the best weddings they have ever been too. Choosing Clevedon Hall for your wedding venue is a no brainer, you won't regret it and you're guaranteed to have spectacular memories to last a lifetime.

  • Natalie Oliver

    This is an amazing venue with excellent staff. We were lucky enough to get married here on 22nd Sept 2017 and right from the moment we walked in for our first visit to the moment we left the day after the wedding, we literally couldn't have asked for anything more! Special thanks to Simon and Ellie who was there to support us through all of the planning, and a massive shout out to Verity who was there on the day & did an amazing job & supported me all the way, nothing was too much trouble.

  • Jayne & Rob

    Just had the most amazing day celebrating our Wedding at Clevedon Hall yesterday. I always knew that if and when we tied the knot this would be our venue choice, the amazing grounds and house make it the perfect place!

    From the planning to the actual day could not have been a better experience! With their friendly but professional approach you could not expect more and the bedrooms for us and all our guests were luxurious - all our friends and family were made so welcome.

    So many thanks to Simon, Ellie and especially Verity and her team yesterday for the smooth running of our wonderful day.

  • Kellie-Marie and Christopher - 07/08/2016

    August the 6th! Our special day. My now husband and I could not have chosen a better venue to hold our wedding. Throughout the whole process the staff have been exceptional, nothing has ever been too much and they go out of their way to make sure that your day is perfect.

    Emily and Leonora, thank you so much for helping us organise our special day you have been fantastic. Sola, what can we say, you made our day run smoothly and had everything organised to a T! I couldn't have asked for anymore!

    The food was delicious, the best wedding food I have ever had. Having the option to design our own menu was important to us and you created our vision perfectly. The guests couldn't stop talking about the quality of the service and food!

    Clevedon Hall itself is stunning! The rooms inside the building are stunning, newly furnished the rooms are vibrant and elegant, the bedrooms are something else, it felt like I was a princess in my own castle! The grounds are beautiful, you could not ask for a better setting for photographs and videos, they are extremely well looked after by the gardeners.
    I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a venue.

  • Sarah and Adrian - 11/10/2016

    The team at Clevedon Hall (in particular Leonora and Sola) were absolutely terrific. Right from the beginning they did all they could to help us. Leonora answered ALL my questions with patience and kindness - nothing seemed too much. The venue looked absolutely beautiful! Sola even managed to button up my dress when my bridesmaids couldn't quite do it!
    Thank you so much to all at Clevedon Hall - I would without hesitation recommend you to anyone thinking of choosing a wedding venue.

  • Ben Chapman-Gale - 06/08/2016

    We had our wedding here two days ago and what a special day it was. The whole process from the moment we booked it has been a pleasure. The day was truly magical and with the attention to detail you have captured every moment that we have been dreaming about for the last 16 months. We couldn't have picked a better venue for us it was perfect, the grounds house and rooms are stunning but it is you guys that make it.

    The service throughout the day was faultless and we were made to feel very welcomed all day long.
    Emily you did an amazing job throughout the planning and put an answer to our every last question.

    Ellie you went above and beyond very friendly and nothing was too much hassle whenever we spoke to you.
    Verity and the team helping set up, hands down to all of you. You spent the time to go through everything in the drop off meeting and you truly captured everything we asked for.

    Thank you all for our special day and all the fond memories that we have created here.
    Five stars really doesn't give you the credit that you deserve.
