250 standing
Taken straight from a fairytale, the grand 19th Century Victorian house and the surrounding 500 acres of stunning grounds, provide a truly enchanting setting for your special day.
Located just 10 miles from historic Bath, the venue is perfect all year round. The gorgeous gardens are look stunning in the summer sunshine, and the open fires provide a cosy atmosphere in the winter months.
Orchardleigh House is fully licensed to hold civil ceremonies for up to 144 guests. If you’re planning a more traditional service, there are two beautiful churches within the estate. Neither church requires you to be from the local parish to use the facility, so it is open to all. St. Mary’s Church is ideally located on its own private island. As there is no electricity supplied to the church's remote location, all wedding ceremonies are conducted purely by candlelight for a magical, romantic setting.
St. Mary’s also boasts its own helipad so you can arrive in dramatic style! From the Bell Longranger Helicopter to a 1926 Rolls Royce, Orchardleigh offers a variety of wedding transportation for you to hire.
For overnight guests, the Estate can accommodate up to 172 guests. There are 44 luxurious rooms in the main house and a variety of Lodges and Cottages on site. You can also hire the cottages for the night before the big day so there are no worries about getting to the church on time.
Orchardleigh Estate is an award-winning venue; it was declared Somerset Wedding of the Year, named second best UK Venue by Perfect Wedding Magazine, and voted ninth in Marie Claire’s Best UK Venues!

22nd December 2022 we had our 3 day wedding package here and it was absolutely incredible- especially our coordinator Anne Marie 💒 We also came back for our wedding anniversary last month and stayed in one of the Lodges on site. I talk about it all the time and miss it so much, but this venue and all the staff is absolutely fabulous.

Wedding January. Issue with our toilet not notified to us on arrival. Offered us an alternative room. Lovely canapés, plenty of different areas to sit, open fires. Bar prices good. Nice meal, loads of tables. Breakfast almost run out when we came down. Shortage of hot drinks/cups. Need to re-stock. Great venue, nice garden for photos, confetti etc. Fairytale building & location. Shallows up large party.
