Pengenna Manor

 

How does it work?

 

Pengenna is a 'blank canvas' venue with a twist. You hire the grounds, the Cowyard Barn and the Manor to use however you would like to create your dream wedding the way you want it, using the suppliers you want, and we're on hand throughout your stay to make sure you and your suppliers have everything you need. We're here to hold your hand throughout, answer any questions you or your suppliers may have at any time, meet with you if you need to re-visit, and help you with using the Manor and grounds, making things as easy as possible for you.

Make use of our indoor event space, the Cowyard Barn, for your reception...

 

This 200-year-old building has been restored and re-purposed to create a gorgeous permanent undercover space for seated dinners for up to 100 guests with views down to the Manor below. A popular choice with many of our couples, it provides the perfect rustic combination of reception location and evening venue. The space has been left purposefully blank for you to decorate and style however you like with concrete floors and bare stone walls, but with the addition of atmospheric strings of festoon lightbulbs amongst the old beams, and also some funky hidden feature lighting. Bespoke wooden rustic trestle tables (each seating eight guests) and wooden folding chairs are included, or you can hire in your own furniture for a different look. External caterers can set up a pop-up kitchen inside the barn, or in the courtyard outside. A very cool rustic bar clad in corrugated metal has been installed - and even this is on wheels so it can be re-located for total flexibility!

 

Or maybe you would like a marquee wedding...

 

If you're wanting a marquee wedding reception then we've got a fantastic list of suppliers who've all hosted weddings and events at our venue and will know the site. Your choice will largely depend on the style you're looking for, but we can recommend each of the following for your big day.

Maybe you would prefer a romantic elopement at Pengenna Manor?

 

Imagine having an entire manor house and estate just for the sole use of you and your partner (or for up to 8 of your closest friends and family to join you) to escape for a seriously romantic elopement. None of the pressure, none of the fuss, just you and the one you love coming together to say “I do”. How dreamy does that sound?
