Pennard House is a family-owned, exclusive-use wedding venue located in a small village near Shepton Mallet in Somerset. The venue boasts a relaxed, family home vibe with 10 comfortable bedrooms, plus large reception and dining rooms to enjoy and make your preparations in. Surrounded by large, lush gardens, the House offers endless photo opportunities and space for drinks receptions.

The venue has recently moved all of its catering in-house, meaning all catering from the night-before supper to the wedding breakfast and evening food is provided via the expert team at The Pennard Kitchen. The new head chef, Mike Dart and catering director Denise Bottrill together bring more than two decades of experience in catering weddings at all budget levels. The new Pennard Kitchen menus have been designed to include the freshest local and seasonal ingredients, to create delicious and imaginative food. All are sourced locally from Somerset suppliers where possible, such as dairy products collected from surrounding farms and meat from a locally-supplied farm shop.

As part of this initiative the venue has also recently introduced The Pennard Pizza Trailer, a converted horse box providing artisan, wood-fired pizzas, which are proving perfect for evening snacks and a lovely addition to the grounds in front of the 18C Coach House.
