Combermere Abbey a Very Special Place, For a Very Special Day

The Mrs2Be Venue of the month for August 2009 is the spectacular Glasshouse at Combermere Abbey

Visit Combermere Abbey and step into a magical world steeped in history and romance - a world once ruled by Kings and Queens , where Knights in shining armour won the hearts of Princesses. Combermere Abbey was built in medieval times and carefully tended by monks, home to Lords of the Realm, Duchesses and Empresses for 875 years. 

A beautifully restored Victorian gem

The estate, with its ancient and historic landscape, large mere and woods, sits on the borders of Shropshire and Cheshire , between the market towns of Nantwich and Whitchurch.  Since 1133, it has attracted and inspired many - its spectacular setting influencing both the residents and visitors alike.

Pictured left, Combermere's wedding venue - The Glasshouse', set in the heart of a fruit tree maze within the Abbey's walled gardens, is a true hidden treasure, a beautifully restored Victorian gem. This is a truly amazing 'one of a kind' wedding venue and a 'must see' for couples looking for a venue in the area or who are willing to travel for the perfect venue.

Private, Exclusive & Stylish

If you are looking for somewhere private, exclusive and stylish to hold your wedding or civil partnership ceremony and reception, The Glasshouse is the answer to your quest. Licensed for civil marriages, civil partnerships and naming ceremonies, The Glasshouse can seat up to 120 people. For small intimate weddings up to 60 guests, the ceremony and wedding breakfast can be held in The Glasshouse. Until March 2010, receptions and evening celebrations for up to 150 people take place in an elegant marquee. In April 2010, the beautiful Pavilion with dance floor, bar, indoor toilets and catering facilities will be opened to host all wedding breakfasts, receptions and evening celebrations.

Enter the gates and drive through ancient oaks and rolling parkland to discover the magical setting around Combermere Abbey.  Enjoy the romantic and private situation of The Glasshouse, the perfect choice for your marriage ceremony and the impressive Pavilion for receptions and catered events all year round.  You could not choose a more special and memorable place. We simply cannot believe that Combermere still has some availability for weddings during 2009 and what's more offers excellent rates both for late availability and otherwise!

Romance & Elegance

We love everything about Combermere from the fantastic Glasshouse to the stunning views and the whole romance and elegance of the estate, all of which make perfect settings for fabulous wedding photos.
