Combining old-world charm with 21st century cool, this is Fairyhill, but not as you know it. As we toast to our future we welcome you to start yours with us. Here’s to new beginnings.

LUXURY. FIRST CLASS SERVICE. FANTASTIC FOOD. These are the things we guarantee. We believe that special moments should happen in the most enchanting of locations. Exclusivity is standard, not an exception. When you set the date at Fairyhill, you get the whole house and 24 acres of rolling lawn, walled gardens, tranquil lakes and enchanting woodland to play with.

In 2018 we reopened the grand old doors of the iconic Fairyhill to unveil the K Room, an epic glass extension designed especially to host wedding receptions. The contemporary space perfectly juxtaposes our chocolate-box-pretty Georgian mansion, offering a true sense of ‘something old and something new’. Fairyhill’s new chapter has been hailed a critical success with the venue tipped as one of the best in the U.K. The striking glass construction adds a pinch of 21st century cool, while the charm and character of the original house still offers ‘old world’ grandeur.

We invite you to be part of Fairyhill’s next chapter. Discover the magic with your own eyes…

Yours sincerely

Fairyhill

Its name was inspired by the effect that the panoramic circular array of windows created, a space that takes couples “through the looking glass” to a magical setting that truly captures ‘the outside in’.

“Our wedding was absolutely incredible, even better than we could have ever imagined, the wedding team went above and beyond to deliver on our high expectations. It was a glorious sunny day meaning the guests could take full advantage of the gardens and terrace. Everyone is still raving about the venue, especially the K Room as it offers a truly magical setting and as for the food, wow! We feel very privileged to have had all our friends and family celebrate with us in one of the most magical locations in Wales.”

“The day was simply amazing. All of our family and friends could not speak highly enough about how perfect the setting was and how accommodating the lovely staff were. We had lots going on from day to night, including a surprise Irish folk performance, but nothing was too much trouble for the event coordinators and we can’t thank everyone enough. We had rack of Welsh lamb for main and it was honestly the best meal I’ve ever had at a wedding (I may be biased but its true)! The only negative for us was that the day went by so quickly. We wish we could do it all over again!”

“We can’t thank you enough for making our wedding day so spectacular. Everything ran

seamlessly from start to finish despite booking with less than 6 months lead time to plan our

wedding day! The venue, the food, the staff, everything was perfect! If I could do it all

again tomorrow I’d be there in a flash. Thanks Fairyhill, simply amazing.”
