Perfectly placed within 650 acres of beautiful Welsh countryside is the 17th-century Hensol Castle. This grand wedding venue has been sympathetically renovated and boasts a modern décor with arched windows, oak panelling and sweeping staircases. New for 2022 are the luxury bedrooms, each with bespoke features such as roll-top baths and four-poster beds.

Celebrate in style
Ceremonies are held outdoors under the romantic bandstand, which offers impressive views of the Welsh countryside, or in the resplendent Oak Room.

Receptions take place in the purpose-built Courtyard Hall, which has a luxurious décor throughout and space for 150 guests for the wedding breakfast and 200 for the evening reception.

We love...
Hensol Castle sells its award-winning gin in miniature form, which is perfect as a wedding favour for guests. It’s distilled in the cellars at Hensol Castle Distillery, and couples can choose between having the miniatures personalised or sticking to the Hensol Castle’s branded bottles.
