county
Shropshire is recognised as an incredibly
beautiful county, the largest inland county in
England, no less.
The county is steeped in a rich and
fascinating history, playing its parts in the
‘Wars of the Roses’ and has been fought over
in the North by the Welsh and English. Our
county has hosted the English parliament
and is rich in heritage left by the Romans, not
to mention its association with the modern
Olympic Games. Some even believe that the
court of Camelot was in Shropshire.
We are pleased to be able to offer a wide
choice of attractive venues in beautiful
locations for ceremonies. Shropshire is
home to some stunning scenery, set on
a backcloth of patchwork fields, wooded
valleys, picturesque rivers and rolling hills
leading into the Welsh mountains.
We are sure that you will find the perfect
place to celebrate your special day in
Shropshire.
Whatever you envisage, a simple, intimate
affair or a splendid gala occasion, we want
to ensure that your special day is all that you
want it to be. We want your celebration to run
smoothly and successfully and leave you with
memories to treasure.
We hope this guide will answer all your
questions but if you have any others, we will
be pleased to answer them. Alternatively
