Babington House

Nestled in the midst of  rolling somerset hills, Babington House and its 17 acre early Georgian estate offers the perfect setting for a traditional country wedding - with a slight bohemian twist.

Babington has its own chapel dating back to 1750, vast grounds, numerous spaces for eating and drinking, and 32 individually designed bedrooms.  The Cowshed Relax spa wtih treatment areas overlooking the House's Victorian Walled Garden is a place to unwind and relax before your big day.

Babington House can hold civil ceremonies in the Orangery, or help arrange a religious service for up to 80 guests in the chapel.  For dinner, we can seat up to 80 guests in the Orangery with sweeping views over the grounds and lake, or up to 120 guests by using the adjoining Log Room.

Babington House is an ideal location for a wedding at any time of the year from the warm cosy spaces and open fires in the winter months, to champagne and bites on the lawn on a sunny day.  The comfortable interiors feature feminine touches and elements of traditional design, creating an inviting space for guests and an ideal backdrop for wedding photos.

Babington's wedding packages include one nights accommodation in all 32 bedrooms, drinks, canapes, wedding dinner and breakfast.  Live entertainment and a wide array for other activities will be taken care of with an 'anything goes' approach to service.

Babington is available for exclusive hire for weddings from Mondays to Thursdays.

      A tremendous success
      I want to leave you and your colleauges in no doubt as to our deep appreciation and thanks for the care and attention you ALL gave in making Cam and Stewarts preparation for their wedding, in being a tremendous success. It is all down to team work, whether front of house, chefs, waiters or the bar. Whatever capacity in which each individual contributes, without team work and cooperating with each other, we as guests would not have been able to come away singing the praises of Babington. It is you and the staff that make Babington.
