The best choice we made!
We are so glad we chose Glewstone Court as our wedding venue. This family-run business really knows how to deliver service to perfection! We visited Glewstone Court for a viewing and also attended one of their dining club evenings. Every person we dealt with was friendly and professional, and we immediately felt at ease. Our wedding day felt so relaxing! Everything just seamlessly happened around us; not once did we have to think about anything. Vendors were shown to their positions, family were treated like family, not just guests, and the food was gorgeous! Another benefit of this venue is how beautiful the historic building is, it saved us a fortunate as we didn’t even have to decorate! We would have no reservations about recommending Glewstone Court. Big thank you to every single person who helped make it an unforgettable day.
Married March 2025
Well, where do we start? We made a visit to Glewstone for the first time about 18 months ago. It was the first venue we looked at, and after viewing more, we knew it was the one we wanted. The build-up to the wedding was incredible. The venue kept in touch and also put on a lot of events catered for couples and their families. Being an exclusive-use venue, these events were always so personal. We felt like we were family to the staff, and Glewstone had become our second home. The detail that the planners went into with us to make our day ours was second to none. Nothing was too much trouble, and everything we asked for we got.
We booked a 48-hour hire for our wedding, and that was the best decision we made. We got to arrive on the Friday and have the venue to ourselves while our day was being set up in front of us. Then we got to welcome our nearest and dearest for an intimate meal the night before. The food was out of this world, and again the staff were on hand for everything. A lot of our party commented on how they liked the personal touch, e.g learning everyone’s names and preferences. It really made it. The day of the wedding, the staff made sure everything ran calmly and smoothly. Keeping a bride calm on her wedding morning is not an easy thing to do, but these guys are just incredible. Throughout the whole day, they made sure everything was how we wanted, checked on us and became part of the wedding party. My maid of honour has commented, “When I shouted, they just appeared” hahaha.
In a nutshell, booking Glewstone for our wedding was the best decision we have ever made. They truly go above and beyond, make you feel like family and make your dream come true.
We will miss everything about it, but always have the beautiful memories thanks to them.
Married May 2026
Quite simply: perfect.
We wanted a venue that could host us the night before, accommodate the family and wedding party on site and have a beautiful setting with enough room for the guests to have fun and dance in the evening. It was also important that we could have a spectacular ceremony indoors or outdoors, with flexibility depending on the weather.
Glewstone Court has all of this, but the main reason we chose Glewstone Court was because it is an independent, family-run business who are dedicated to making your day spectacular. It probably helps that they’ve even hosted their own family weddings at the venue! You really get to know the team, with Sam and Charles running the day to absolute perfection and Amy planning everything to a T (and with endless patience!). They really get it.
It’s really not a ‘wedding factory’ like some similar venues in the South West. Everything was flexible and tailored, with them even sharing fresh ideas of how to do things different from our first look around.
They also have an in-house catering team, whom we’ve had three meals with now, and each one has been delicious. We knew the food would be great on the day, but it really exceeded expectations.
The whole team are everything and more you could want in a supportive wedding planning and coordinating team!
Married August 2025
I’ve tried to write this review several times, but I don’t feel any words can do justice to the wonderful family and team behind this venue. We knew how perfect Glewstone Country House was the second we arrived for our first viewing. Gary is a warm and proud introduction to the venue and how things are run. It was so obvious that they welcomed you like family. Emily and Joel answered all my emails quickly and in-depth, which meant we were able to book the right date for us and let the wedding planning begin! Amy was a pleasure to organise our wedding with, her guidance helped bring our vision in to reality. We arrived the day before our wedding and were greeted by Charles, who made the effort to get to know each guest individually and continuously ensured everyone had everything they needed. Sam couldn’t do enough to help and make everyone, from our children to our grandparents, feel appreciated and at ease. Sam and Charles together walked around with smiles on their faces and made sure the wedding morning went completely as planned from the smallest of details. We had nothing to worry about and were able to sit back and really enjoy our day. The venue itself is stunning and perfectly suited to what we were looking for for our wedding day. The rooms were decorated beautifully, spacious and clean. Especially the bridal suite! The food was wonderful, with more than enough (even for our picky eaters and big appetites!) Absolutely everybody, including our suppliers, couldn’t praise the venue and team highly enough. Thank you so much for being such a wonderful part of our day. We really can’t thank you enough for being such amazing hosts.
Married March 2024
Thank you so much to everyone at the Glewstone team for organising the best day, particularly to Amy for supporting us with all of our questions and queries in the lead-up and being so patient and helpful throughout! A huge thank you to Charles and Sam, too, for making sure everything ran to plan throughout the weekend and bringing a lot of fun and energy along the way too! Everyone said how much fun the day was, and that’s all we wanted! Glewstone is such a beautiful venue, in a very beautiful setting too and will always have a special place in our hearts. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone considering it!
Married July 2024
This venue is clear with you from the get go, everything is explained and broken down so you know exactly what you’re paying for, the staff will answer your questions and they will do whatever they can for you to have the day you wanted, I wanted a intimate ceremony and then a big party and that’s what they provided, the food was amazing and they accommodated my tastes as well, if anything went wrong on the day then I didn’t know about it as it went so smoothly and expertly organised by charles and Sam, I have so much praise for this venue I would recommend it to anyone who asks me.

Glewstone is a gorgeous venue in the stunning Herefordshire countryside
We can’t recommend Glewstone Court enough as a wedding venue. Our experience from booking, right through to the wedding in October 2024, was everything we could have wished for and more!
The team at Glewstone are professional and so passionate about the fantastic service they provide as a venue. We hired the venue for 48 hours back in October and were so well looked after by all of the team, which felt very personal. Our day ran so smoothly thanks to the planning process with Amy; then Sam and the team worked so hard on our wedding day with such attention to detail.
Glewstone is a gorgeous and classic venue in the most beautiful setting with such a special atmosphere. Our guests felt so welcomed and enjoyed the special touches like the courtyard bar serving cocktails. The food was also gorgeous and beautifully presented, which we also had many compliments on.
Thank you to the Glewstone Court team for making our wedding so special and a day we will always look back on so fondly.
Married October 2024
We chose Glewstone Court for our wedding, and we were all so blown away by how incredible it was in every possible way. They went above and beyond in every sense; Charles and Sam, in particular, were amazing on the big day. Everyone said how brilliant they were. It was certainly a joy to have people so cool, calm, and collected on such a crazy day! We’d been speaking with Amy prior to the big day, and she was so lovely and knowledgeable that it made planning an absolute dream. Gary was very polite and friendly, and it was lovely to meet him. At a lot of venues, you don’t often see the owners, but it’s lovely that he’s so hands-on here, and it’s clear that he (and everyone else) really does care and always gives 100%. We would recommend Glewstone Court to anyone, and we can’t wait to return in the future! It’s such a wonderful building, and the location is stunning. We booked for 48 hours, and everyone commented on how beautiful the food was at every meal. The rooms were beautiful and clean, very luxurious and lots of space! The decor is very tasteful, and we were all made to feel very welcome. We really feel like it wasn’t “just another wedding”. There was a real personal touch, and that made it all the more special. Thank you all so much.
Married March 2024
Flawless wedding experience.
From the moment we walked into Glewstone a year ago to view the venue and met Sam, we knew it was the place we wanted to get married. Fast forward to this year, and we hired Glewstone for our Wedding. It was simply perfect. Every single guest was known by name and had a perfect time. Charles, the wedding coordinator, was pure perfection and made everything flow. He got our music requests spot on and made every little detail magical. If you pick Glewstone, you are in great hands. They are friendly, kind, and the food is out of this world. You will not be disappointed.
Married April 2025
We absolutely picked the most perfect venue to host our wedding. It is the most wonderful venue that we fell in love with when we first visited and proved to be even more special and spectacular, surrounded by all our family and friends. The staff were attentive and provided a first-class service. In particular, we don’t think we have enough words to truly thank and show our appreciation for Sam and Charles on the day. They were absolutely incredible – attentive, kind, thoughtful, fun, and organised to perfection and took away any worries or concerns we thought we might have had. We had loads of comments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was, how great the food was, the great staff and how perfect it was for our day. We especially appreciated the thoughtfulness of the early check-in for Ellie, helping us decorate the venue (including putting up our mirror!), the glass of whiskey when needed and the check-ins throughout.
Married May 2024
Glewstone Court has been incredible from the moment we viewed it to the end. As soon as we walked through the doors, we knew it was where we wanted to hold our wedding; it was the perfect place. The venue is warm, welcoming and homely; they really care about each wedding they hold at Glewstone. We visited multiple other venues that felt like we were just another number and were shown around on the mornings of people’s weddings, but not at Glewstone. The team are amazing, they made us and all our guests feel incredibly special. We’ve had so many compliments from guests regarding the food, service, how friendly everyone was and how nothing was ever too much, people have said how it’s one of the best venues they’ve been too.
I genuinely believe the reason we were so calm in the run-up to the day was that the team handled everything for us, from suppliers, setting up, organising the day, and they even packed everything away the following day, which was so unexpected. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing the entire weekend. We knew we were in great hands.
We had our pre-wedding meal at Glewstone Court the evening before we got married which was amazing, it was so nice to have the option of having some of our closest family and friends spend the evening with us and the food was perfect. I’d definitely recommend the 48-hour hire of the venue, it made the weekend so special and felt like a mini holiday surrounded by the orchard and beautiful grounds.
I think I could list a million reasons as to why couples should choose Glewstone Court to get married at. It really is the most special place, and I couldn’t recommend it enough if I tried!
Married May 2025
From start to finish, our experience at this venue was nothing short of incredible. The team went above and beyond with their exceptional service, especially Charles, who looked after us throughout our whole stay. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We opted for a 48-hour hire, which allowed us to dress the venue the day before and have a meal at the venue the night before, which was the perfect way to start the celebrations.
All the food was absolutely amazing, from the meal the night before to our wedding breakfast and evening food, and we were especially impressed with the attention to detail concerning our guests with dietary requirements. We chose Heritage Tomato Salad for starter, Roast Lamb Rump for main and Chocolate Cremeux for dessert. We could not have been more impressed with the quality of food served to every one of our guests. Since our wedding over three months ago now, our guests are still talking about our wedding breakfast. The lamb, especially, was a big hit! As well as amazing food, Sam and the team helped organise the serving of our choice of cask beers over the 48 hours of our stay (Butty Bach and HPA), as well as favourite cocktails on their outdoor cocktail bar.
We were lucky enough with the weather to be able to have our ceremony outside overlooking the orchard and also make use of the beautiful courtyard during the evening. These areas really made the venue for us.
We had the most amazing wedding day and couldn’t be happier with our experience!
Married May 2025
We cannot thank Glewstone Court enough for giving us the most beautiful experience for our wedding day. The beauty of the venue, the wonderful staff and the warm feeling we had as soon as we visited Glewstone are what drew us to it immediately! Right from the start of the wedding day, we were met with such care and attention to detail. Even though it was raining, the whole team did everything they could to make sure that everyone was happy and settled, and I really didn’t think twice about the weather! The interior of the venue was so elegant, with the fires lit and the gorgeous, tall windows making us feel like the outside was part of the inside. It was truly beautiful! The bridal party were greeted by Sam, who immediately helped me in with my umbrella! We cannot thank Sam enough for the incredible care and support he provided to the whole wedding party from start to finish. He was so helpful and attentive and made us feel so welcome. Everyone commented on how wonderful the whole team were during the day. They really went above and beyond! All guests have commented on how amazing the day was. The food was absolutely delicious, and the rooms were incredible. We all had such an amazing day filled with smiles, fun and laughter. It is a day we will cherish forever, and we cannot thank Glewstone Court enough for that!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding venue than Glewstone Court. From the moment we booked right through to the big day, the service was absolutely outstanding.
Charles and Sam were phenomenal; nothing was too much trouble, and their attention to detail made everything run so smoothly. They truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was special.
Our wedding day was perfect from start to finish, and we’re so grateful for the care and effort that went into making it unforgettable. We honestly couldn’t recommend this venue enough!

Couldn’t have wished for better!
It’s hard to put into words how absolutely amazing the staff at Glewstone Court are, they really do go above and beyond, nothing at all is too much trouble, they will happily get stuck in if you need the help, but equally are very good at giving you the space if you need it. When we entered into our wedding planning adventure we had a bit of a rubbish experience with a different venue so when it came to our initial visit at Glewstone we were feeling a bit apprehensive but Charlie’s completely put us at ease, he was so lovely and genuinely made us feel like it was some sort of honour to them for us to have our wedding at Glewstone. We left with a feeling of excitement and happiness. We knew from the first 10 minutes of interacting with Charles and seeing the venue that this was the venue for us. Sam, Charles and all the staff who were present on our wedding day helped make it so wonderful, and without them, it wouldn’t have been the perfect day for us that it was. We will never stop recommending Glewstone Court itself and the staff, their dedication and kindness are unmatched, and we are so incredibly grateful to every single staff member. Thank you again, we will definitely be back to visit.
Married March 2025
I’m not sure words can fully capture how wonderful this venue is. We were married here in July 2026, and from the moment we first viewed the house to checking out after the most beautiful, relaxing long weekend, everything was exceptional.
The family who run Glewstone Court work incredibly hard, and their dedication shows in every detail. They are a credit to one another and to the venue. We’ve had so many compliments about the stunning setting and the food — our BBQ and salads went down an absolute treat.No request was ever too much. From being so attentive to our daughter’s additional needs to making sure our wedding party could watch the England game go to extra time, everything was handled with care and kindness.
We enjoyed every single moment and already look forward to booking an exclusive dinner and stay so we can reminisce about our day.
Thank you to the whole team, and especially Charles and Sam, for their incredible work on the day and to everyone behind the scenes who helped make it perfect.

We are struggling to put into words how grateful Holly and I are to you all in making our wedding day so incredible. From our first meetings, to postponements to the final build up. You have been professional, fair, personable and made the whole process a pleasure. We always felt a priority even though you must have had other weddings to plan too. Your family run business has allowed the remarkable personal touch that makes you unrivalled.
We will never forget our first encounter with Glewstone Court- it was when we were celebrating Holly’s graduation. It was from that moment that we knew there was something special about you and your venue – this was even prior to becoming engaged.
When we did become engaged, We knew that this would be where we would want to spend our wedding day.
You create a service that is unparalleled to anything we have ever experienced. It is such luxury service whilst maintaining a personable approach. This shone through on the day. You wouldn’t believe how many compliments were passed to us for the amazing service received by Sam and the team. You anticipated our every need before we even knew we wanted it. The whole day was so smooth, there was no stress everything was planned perfectly and you adapted to running slightly over timings.
Every single member of your team knew what our guests wanted / needed it was unbelievable. Our personal highlight is Sam as the designated shot master. You all ran so in sync.
The food was incredible the portion sizes were huge and so many of our guests were blown away by what they received. This is also another reason why we chose you as our wedding venue because the food was so superb.
Glewstone Court is such a beautiful venue – a true gem in the Herefordshire countryside. What are you offer is truly bespoke and you adapted to all our wants and needs. We have literally spent three years in the (unintentional) planning with you. You have been so calm and patient with us – thank you for that.
We had the Best day of our lives, it was everything we have ever dreamed of.
We are so happy we chose Glewstone for our wedding. From enquiring to the big day, all of the team were fantastic. Charles, the event coordinator, is exceptional at his job, and he went above and beyond for us on our big day. We had a dinner with family and friends the night before, which was amazing, and the wedding day ran so smoothly! All the staff were so lovely and all our guests and suppliers felt so welcomed. The food on the day was amazing, and we got so many comments on how nice it was! There were also a lot of options to choose from, alongside complete flexibility on our decor and a few personal touches. Since we booked the venue has been thoughtfully updated, and it is such a beautiful, cosy place. The grounds are stunning, and the bridal suite was spectacular. Lots of our guests said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. Thank you to all the team for making our day so perfect!

We could not recommend Glewstone Court enough! From start to finish, the whole process was seamless, and the organisation was incredible.
A huge thank you to Joel for helping us book our wedding, Amy for all her support throughout the nearly two years of planning, and especially Sam and Charles for making our wedding day so perfect and completely stress-free.

When you arrive at Glewstone Court, you’ll be welcomed with a drink before enjoying a selection of delicious canapés.
You’ll then have...
Yes, we do! We want you and your wedding to be the day's main focus, meaning we will not host any other event or wedding on the same day. You will gain access early in the morning through breakfast the following morning.
Absolutely! We can also hold marquees here on the grounds for up to 150 guests and arrange this for you. We use a trusted external company to do this for us, and we will organise everything for you and include the price in your total hire. Prices would depend on the number of guests and how big the marquee would need to be. If this is something that you are interested in, we can provide a quote for you at any time.
We would be thrilled to help you organise an outside ceremony within our beautiful grounds. Due to the British weather, this would be weather-dependent, of course. We will always have a backup ready to move inside if need be!
We are so confident that you will love our selection of wines that you may not need to discuss corkage. We have great local wines specially selected by our Directors. However, if you have a particular wine that means a lot to you, then we would allow corkage.
We only allow wine/fizz to be brought, which results in a corkage charge of £29 per bottle for wine, £32 per bottle for prosecco, and £49 per bottle for champagne. We do not offer corkage on spirits, bottled beers, or soft drinks.
Couples greatly benefit from hiring us for 48 hours. It gives you and your family quality time before the big day to break the ice and get to know each other better. Our incredibly talented chef can serve a pre-wedding, relaxed, family-style dinner.
You wake up here on the day with early access to the suite so you can relax and enjoy the morning. We can deliver a breakfast tray to the room and even some bubbles to get ready in style. Your guests can also access their rooms early for a more relaxed experience.
We understand that organising a wedding can be an overwhelming experience. So, we would be more than happy to give you a list of recommended suppliers that you can reach out to. We have carefully selected a list of suppliers who come to the house frequently and whom we trust, and we would be more than happy for you to use them,
Your wedding day is all about you as a couple, so we give you complete flexibility to host your wedding however you envision it. As a family-run venue, we are not held back by anything, so tell us how you want it, and we will help you bring your dream wedding to life!
Of course! We will guide you and take care of you every step, from your initial enquiry to planning your special day to ultimately bringing it all together for you on the day itself. Our wedding coordinators and front-of-house staff will guarantee you won't have to lift a finger on your special day. No request is too big for us to handle.
Yes, for a small £250 one-off fee, you can continue your celebrations until 12am (midnight).
