What could be more romantic than a civil partnership in an historic William & Mary Mansion set deep in the Somerset countryside?
When you are planning that stunning once in a lifetime event, you will want a setting that is not just a blank backdrop to the flowers and champagne, but an exquisitely dressed stage that will make your big day unforgettable. Your venue should not shrink into the background, but play a major role at your party. It should offer character, history and beauty. It should put your guests at their ease, and encourage them to stroll and mingle and talk. It should be the starting point for beautiful memories that will linger long after everyone has departed. For that, you need an exceptional location – Halswell.
With a growing reputation as a civil partnership venue and a dedicated team of civil partnership co-ordinators, we will guide you through every aspect of planning your special day.
A civil partnership ceremony at Halswell House is a unique experience.
The rolling lawns and fine views across the Quantock Hills ensures the photographer will provide the most beautiful and dramatic pictures of your big day.
Whatever the season we can provide that exclusive setting at an affordable price. Take a look at our special civil partnership packages.
