About Pentillie Castle

Sitting in the heart of a privately owned 1,500-acre Cornish estate on the beautiful banks of the River Tamar, Pentillie Castle is a breathtaking spot for a wedding. The enchanting, outstretched views of the Tamar Valley, extensive mature gardens, and secluded setting provide a spectacular backdrop to celebrate your wedding. Not forgetting of course, the chance to have your magical day in a Cornish castle!

Pentillie's extensive grounds mean that you have a wide variety of indoor and outdoor options when it comes to ceremony locations. There's always the Castle's grand interior for example, but you may choose to say your vows in the romantic wisteria-clad Pavilion, the Castle Loggia, or the intimate riverside Bathing Hut. Other outdoor locations include the Stone Circle at the highest point of Pentillie's grounds, with the estate's peacocks in the Walled Kitchen Garden, or amid blooming rhododendrons and bluebells of the American Garden.

Though grand in the name, the Castle is incredibly intimate by nature, offering the perfect venue for a romantic elopement or a small gathering for up to 60 (with up to 40 additional evening guests). For a larger celebration of up to 250 guests there are a number of large lawns and spaces for a marquee. Meanwhile, Pentillie works with a carefully curated selection of caterers and focuses heavily on the quality local produce of the West Country to make sure that all the food served at your wedding is of the highest quality.

Whether it's giant board games on the lawn, arriving at your own wedding ceremony by helicopter or a wedding menu cooked by a Michelin-starred chef, Pentillie is the ultimate blank canvas that allows you to tailor the wedding of your dreams.

Testimonials For Pentillie Castle

Pentillie is simply outstandingSEPTEMBER, 2023

When one thinks of how to do justice in reviewing Pentillie Castle, it is tricky. Pentillie is simply outstanding. From the moment you first reach out to them, to the moment you (sadly) see the Castle in your rear view mirror after the event, there is no more they could do to make this exceptional venue more so. Chrissie, ably supported by owner Sammie, have built a wonderful team of passionate individuals and they know how to make your day seamless. Thank you for delivering beyond perfection.

Mr & Mrs Smith

Above and beyond...SEPTEMBER, 2023

Chrissie and the team at Pentillie are absolutely incredible in so many ways. From the very first day that we met Chrissie she ensured that she knew exactly what we wanted from our wedding and went above and beyond to make it incredibly unique. The grounds are out of this world and the house is pristinely kept. Pentillie and Chrissie are both hidden gems in the beautiful Cornish countryside.

Mr & Mrs Lauri

The perfect day!SEPTEMBER, 2022

We were lucky enough to tie the knot at Pentillie this September. We had a perfect day, and extended weekend with close family and friends. Chrissie, Steven and the whole team couldn't have done more throughout to make sure everything went smoothly and we didn't have to think or want for anything. The house itself is beautifully restored and the extensive grounds will take you more than a weekend to explore. The bravest amongst us even managed a dip in the Tamar.  We hope to be back one day! So many special memories for our wedding. Thank you! We wish we could bottle them up!

Emma & Lee

Magic wedding fairies!OCTOBER, 2021

Pentillie is a beautiful venue in a fantastic setting which along with the ability to have our closest friends & family stay with us for the entire weekend is what made it stand out. The staff however are what make it special. Chrissie & Stephen anticipated our every need on the day. If we wanted something, it was already done. They were like magic wedding fairies making sure that we didn't have to think about a thing and that everything ran perfectly. I cannot overstate how fantastic they were!
