Manor House Description: It is easy to see why so many couples fall in love with beautiful Rookery Manor. Set in the heart of the Somerset countryside, this glorious 16th century manor is the perfect place to say ‘I do’.
In fact, with no less than four unique rooms licensed for civil ceremonies and partnerships, the only slight hitch is that the bride and groom may find themselves spoilt for choice!
One of the most popular settings for a ceremony at Rookery Manor is the romantic Rose Room. This lovingly restored glass gazebo is a focal point of our award-winning, lakeside gardens.
Couples who wish to tie the knot in an open-air ceremony will love the Island Gazebo, where the bride can make a magical entrance over a wooden bridge or by sailing across the stunning lake.
For a truly grand affair, there is also the magnificent Desborough Suite (festooned with ivory drapes to resemble a grand marquee) or the sophisticated Iris Suite – each sparkling under a starlit ceiling.
Civil ceremonies, alternative celebrations and civil partnerships can be booked seven days a week at Rookery Manor – with a choice of weddings to suit any budget.
Our chefs can cater for receptions of all sizes from an informal buffet to a five-course banquet and there is also the Rookery Bistro for couples planning a smaller wedding.
For overnight accommodation, guests will enjoy staying at our 27-bedroom, 4-star hotel – and the Diamond Bridal Suite, with its four-poster bed and spa bath, is perfect for your wedding night.
All this, plus Rookery Bridal Boutique, Rookery Stable of Flowers, Rookery Retreat & Spa and Chitty, our vintage-style car, ensures there is no better place for your wedding.
