Berwick House sits at the end of a long drive, surrounded by wide green pastures beside the River Severn. The mansion dates back to 1731, with a significant expansion in 1875 that created a space designed for hosting and full of detail. Guests can look out over rolling fields grazed by the estate’s long-established Jersey cattle. Although the setting feels rural, Shrewsbury is only two miles away, keeping everything practical and within easy reach.
Berwick House was a private family home for over six generations. Today, the same family opens its doors and welcomes you to experience Berwick as your own. Plan a lush day event for the ground floor, or make yourself at home for a longer stay. How you choose to enjoy Berwick is entirely up to you.
There are eight licensed ceremony spaces in and around the house and gardens, giving you plenty of choice. Little Berwick Chapel is also available for flexible ceremonial use. It seats up to 170 guests and features stained glass, bells, and an original organ.
The house offers a range of rooms for each part of the day, including the Georgian Library, a marble-topped bar, the main hall with a stained glass ceiling, a double Drawing Room, the Dining Room, and the Snooker Room. With so many rooms available, you can keep each moment of the day in its own space without needing to reset areas. Up to 120 guests can be seated in the double Drawing Room for a wedding breakfast, or you can use a marquee in the gardens for a larger set-up. The house’s interior can accommodate up to 300 guests.
The venue has 18 bedrooms available, allowing you to host family and friends on-site.
Berwick gives you the freedom to choose your own caterers, whether you want something simple or more elaborate. The team can support everything from food trucks on the terrace to a 12-course meal in the Drawing Room. Your booking includes custom bar options, tables, and Louis chairs.
Berwick is easily accessible by car, public transportation, or even on foot from the Shrewsbury train station.
We were lucky enough to stumble upon Berwick House last year and secure it for our wedding. If the venue itself is not reason enough to go book, then Will and Kassidy sure are. They run Berwick with such love, care and passion, and in our experience did everything they could to make our wedding amazing. Berwick is a quirky, beautiful, grand house full of charm and possibilities. All our guests were blown away and have not stopped talking about “the amazing venue”.
Will and Kassidy went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly, and were always accommodating and on hand to help with a smile and calm demeanour. They are also just very cool and nice people to be around.
We could not recommend Berwick House enough – it was truly magical and everything we had hoped for.

This gorgeous venue absolutely blew everyone away! Our guests said it is the most amazing and unique venue they have ever seen, and we feel so blessed to have been able to celebrate our wedding in this beautiful house. We couldn’t quite believe we had what felt like a National Trust property to ourselves! Will and Kassidy were so helpful, allowing us to visit the venue beforehand to scope it out and lay our plans. Nothing was too much effort for them, and they were so accommodating in helping us create our dream wedding.
One of the biggest bonuses of Berwick House is the fact we could have lots of guests stay in the house the night before and after the wedding, meaning loved ones who had to travel long distances had a convenient place to stay. It was really special for us all to be able to spend time together getting the venue ready the day before. All the rooms were beautiful and spacious, with towels and dressing gowns provided. It truly is a stunning place to get ready, and the wedding photos from the bridal prep on the morning of the wedding look incredible.
The grounds are stunning and kids loved running round them. This place is a photographer’s dream with all the beautiful backdrops available. The fact that Berwick is dry hire enabled us to make this wedding as affordable and personalised as we like. Instead of having overpriced set menus, we could choose our caterers to suit our budget and tastes. There is an awesome bar next to the main hall which we stocked ourselves for a decent price. The flexibility of this venue is wonderful.
We had 125 guests and they were easily accommodated, with rooms like the library being a good getaway for people who want some peace and quiet away from the craziness of the party.
We had a ceilidh in the main hall, which worked great and lent itself to some awesome photos from the balconies above. Will and Kassidy were so helpful whilst we were setting up and on the wedding day, always available to lend a hand and to sort anything out we needed. One of them was always in the office so we knew where to find them if we had any issues.
I could go on and on about how wonderful this venue is, but in conclusion, we couldn’t have got married anywhere better and highly recommend you view Berwick for your wedding.

Berwick House was absolute perfection! My fiance and I visited a few venues, but none of them came close to how stunning Berwick House is. This was helped by its owners, Kassidy and Will, particularly Kassidy.
Kassidy was extremely helpful in helping me find vendors and she helped me set up the tables and chairs the day before. I was allowed to bring in alpacas and ice cream as my entertainment! Not sure how many other venues would allow this!
Our families stayed the night before and the rooms were all beautiful, particularly the bridal suite. It’s clear to see how much time, effort and love has gone into each room. Everyone was amazed. Kassidy was on hand whenever we needed her, from providing extra mattresses to finding me an extension cord on the morning of the wedding.
The actual grounds of the venue are just simply stunning. Again, you can see how much care and effort has gone into maintaining it all. Every single guest commented on what a beautiful setting it was for the wedding.
Communication with Kassidy was also great, she answered every email and text fairly quickly and gave the impression that nothing was too much – We can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us!
I would strongly encourage all couples to visit and you’ll fall in love with Berwick House just as much as we did.

From the first email, Kassidy and Will were phenomenal. They way they support you to make sure your day is everything you dream of was just outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble. Their communication was impeccable and completely supportive and realistic!
Berwick itself is like stepping into a film, and we were mesmerised. It’s huge; we personally chose and requested to close off some of the houses to keep our guests together- once again, Kassidy and Will fully supported our decision and made it possible!
Our wedding was everything we dreamed of, and all suppliers worked well together and Kassidy and Will were more than accommodating. We had the horror of our one supplier letting us down, Kassidy was so calm and literally problem-solved and came out with a miracle.
We would recommend the house, the church and the service! I wish we could do it over and over again! We had nothing we would change.

Kassidy & Will were absolutely amazing and so accommodating with their beautiful venue recently opened to the public. Anything we wished we were able to do. Kassidy provided lots of advice and tours, helping set the beds hotel style for our guests in the enormous bedrooms. The bar was fantastic, newly refurbished facilities, a very helpful equipment and crockery supplier, and even a Chapel on site to suit 180+ people; the bedrooms made it an amazing venue for our overnight guests, and everybody was stunned by the character and the history of the building.
My wife & I couldn’t have wished for a better venue to start our married lives together! The pictures, the beauty of the building, and the captivating places for dancing and mingling together made it spectacularly special. I’d have regretted choosing elsewhere.
