Everything I had imagined!
Gwaenynog was such a beautiful venue with so much open space for guests to relax and children to run around. It made it extra special that our wedding guests could be there for the whole weekend and meant everyone got to know each other the night before the wedding. The day went so quickly as it was that if we hadn't had that extra time it would have been over in a flash! We had one of the only weekends of rain in the hottest summer in 30 years but this didn't spoil a thing! Fiona and Norman were so helpful throught out the planning stage - giving us ideas and tips and reminding us to book with suppliers as we were quite lax (Norman even provided an extra make shift shower when we left it too late to book with the supplier!) Being able to design everything ourselves meant the whole wedding was really personal to us and all of the guests commented on how different it felt from other weddings. Absolutely fantastic! I wouldn't change a thing.

Just visit and you won't be disappointed!
If you are looking for a venue that accommodates small or large weddings, a place where you have have flexibility, a place that helps you mould your wedding to your dream wedding and a stunning location then Gwaenynog is the place. We were lucky to be married here and wow. The venue is magical as a blank canvas but when you paint your wedding onto it it is amazing. I can not recommend this place enough. You can have alot of work to do with finding vendors and making the day yours but you are guided through the whole hour etc by Fiona and Norman. They both helped and went above and beyond to ensure our weekend went well. Yes I said weekend, if you celebrate here make it last! Amazing memories have been made at this amazing venue but you truly can make your wedding to suit your needs, check out the website for photos and ideas - no weddings have the same. I know I am biased as we married here but our guests were amazing and understood why why choose where we did and the photos and memories we have are unforgettable. Just visit and you won't be disappointed - we weren't!

Completely different and individual
What a wonderful place to be married. Completely different and as individual and to your own design that anyone could wish for. The B &B spotless clean. Breakfast lots of choices and freshly cooked by Fiona. Very helpful owners and will certainly be back for a visit.
