Glewstone Court Country House
A wedding at Glewstone isn’t just beautiful, it feels different, like you’ve been let in on a very good secret.
Maybe it’s the old cedar tree that’s watched over hundreds of vows. Or the way guests seem to settle in and exhale, drink in hand, as the sun dips behind the Wye Valley. It could be the laughter around the the building and manicured grounds heard late into the night, or the moment a father-of-the-bride, glassy-eyed and half-lost in memory, says “You’ve thought of everything.”
We’re known for that! For making it yours. For noticing the quiet stuff. For guiding without taking over.
A Little Bit About Us
We’re a family-run, independent venue in Ross-on-Wye, set within a Grade II listed Georgian country house manor, surrounded by countryside and overlooking the Brecon Beacons. Over the years, we’ve hosted hundreds of weddings, but no two have ever felt the same, and that’s something we value.
Glewstone Court recently won Best Historic Wedding Venue in the West Midlands (2025) at The Wedding Industry Awards, and we’ve held the AA’s highest accolade for quality and service for eight years in a row. But to be honest? The real reward is seeing our couples still dropping in months later, glowing with memories of their special day flooding back.
What It’s Like To Work With Us
From the moment you step through the front door, it’s about you. We’ll sit down with you, get to know your story, your vision and your non-negotiables!
We’ll walk you through the house whilst showing you how the day might unfold, how the courtyard might feel at golden hour, how we can give you a breather between ceremony and speeches or how to make sure you get a moment just the two of you.
Our team, including your dedicated wedding coordinator Charles, is calm, kind, and ruthlessly prepared. We’re creative problem-solvers, early risers, and yes, we’ve always got a safety pin.

We’ll never push or rush or standardise - that’s just not us. Glewstone is a place to be yourself, surrounded by the people you love, held by a team that quietly has your back.
Let’s plan something unforgettable!

Reviews for Glewstone Court Country House
The Dream Venue!
I genuinely believe the reason we were so calm in the run up to the day was because 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!
Flawless wedding experience ✨️
The BEST Wedding Venue
14.06.2025 - The Best Day
When it came to the run up and day of the wedding, the team were all great at coordinating with other suppliers, to ensure smooth delivery & set up.
We were eager for an outdoor ceremony and Glewstone were so flexible with this, allowing us to leave until a few hours before to make a final decision.
The team were amazing at ensuring every part of the day ran smoothly. Sam especially met our needs to help ourselves, both parties and all guests at ease, whilst transitioning to different parts of the day, at the same time making sure everyone had fun!
We couldn’t have asked for a prettier venue and even better team to help us coordinate the day.
One of our guests even asked if Sam was employed as a coordinator or part of the venue team, as he was the best coordinator they had met!
We both had the best day imaginable and couldn’t have asked for a better outcome!

The best choice we made!
Glewstone is a gorgeous venue in the stunning Herefordshire countryside
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.

My husband and I had our wedding at Glewstone on 7th October 2024. Our wedding day was perfect, and it was all thanks to Sam, Charles, Amy, Gary and the rest of the team at Glewstone. Glewstone offered an amazing service throughout, working with us on a bespoke menu which the chef and kitchen crew executed impeccably, we had endless comments from our guests about how amazing the food was, I myself enjoyed the food so much that it felt a shame that I couldn't finish my meal, we will definitely be back for their diners club. The evening food was heavenly (photo included) and guests were raving about it the next day. Gary and Amy worked endlessly in the background to ensure the planning of our day was smooth sailing, with Sam, Charles and the rest of the team handling the day itself. We had many comments about how Sam and Charles greeted guests on a first name basis and remembered their names throughout the day. Sam ordered drinks into the bar especially for the occasion. At the end of the day when my dad and sister's taxi still had not turned up, Charles even offered them a lift back to their hotel (luckily their taxi turned up in the end, as Charles deserved a well earned rest at the end of the day). We had many comments about how nice the bedrooms were, how good a nights sleep everyone had and the quality of the breakfast the next morning. The added bonus was when we walked into the Gainsborough suite and realised that the bathroom had been renovated.
The venue itself and grounds were perfect for photo opportunities and our photographer managed to take amazing photos of us in the orchards and in front of the house itself.
Having been to many weddings, we can confidently say the complete service from Glewstone was a masterclass in how to deliver an unforgettable wedding day.
My husband and I cannot recommend Glewstone highly enough, they offered everything from early check ins for guests to bespoke food and drink and everything in between.
Our perfect day
We can’t recommend this venue enough, the team helped to make it a truly magical day.

Meet the team
In 2014, my wife Karen and I took on Glewstone Court, turning it into the much-loved wedding and events venue it is today. With a passion for hospitality and a deep appreciation for the house’s history, we’ve worked hard to create a space that feels both welcoming and special.
Over the years, we’ve completely refurbished the venue, earned industry awards including 'Best Historical Wedding Venue in the West Midlands', and achieved recognition for our food and service – including 2 AA Rosettes and the prestigious AA Red Star. In 2023, we took the next step, making Glewstone Court an exclusive-use wedding and events venue, ensuring every couple and guest has a truly personal experience.
For us, it’s more than just a business – it’s a home away from home, and we love sharing the beauty of Glewstone Court with others as they celebrate life’s most important moments.
As co-owner of Glewstone Court, I’ve been part of its journey since 2014, when my husband Gary and I took on this beautiful country house. While I work more behind the scenes, I’m incredibly proud of what my family have built - a family-run venue where couples can celebrate life’s most important moments.
Over the years, we’ve carefully restored and refined the house, ensuring it maintains its charm while offering the highest standards of hospitality. Seeing Glewstone Court grow into an award-winning wedding and events venue has been incredibly rewarding, and I love knowing that so many couples have made lifelong memories here.
Though you might not see me front and center, I’m always invested in making sure Glewstone Court remains a warm, welcoming, and truly special place.
As Events Director and Wedding Planner at Glewstone Court, I’m here to make sure every wedding and event is flawlessly planned and beautifully executed. From the moment a couple books with us, I guide them through the planning process, helping to bring their vision to life while ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
I love the details - whether it’s perfecting the timeline, coordinating with suppliers, or making sure every personal touch is just right. My goal is to take the stress out of planning so couples can truly enjoy their wedding journey, knowing they’re in safe hands.
Seeing everything come together on the big day is the best part of my job. There’s nothing more rewarding than watching couples celebrate with their loved ones, knowing we’ve helped create memories that will last a lifetime.
