Weddings

Just for you, there could be the perfect venue in the heart of Clifton, in the beautiful surrounds of Georgian and Victorian buildings, manicured gardens and wonderful hidden surprises – a shell-studded grotto, ornamental canal, statues and a fully restored rotunda.

You can experience this at Goldney House and Clifton Hill House. Both have stunning gardens, beautiful listed buildings, and some secret spaces that very few people in Bristol even know about, let alone have seen. Wow your guests with something truly different, fabulous food and personal service in a venue that is all yours for your special day.

Testimonials

Emma was great to work with to coordinate the wedding. She was very informative and very accommodating to our needs. She was aware that we wanted a small intimate budget ceremony and helped us achieve exactly that. Emma was very communicative and very patient with us. She did an amazing job. Big thanks to Emma!

We thought it was the perfect venue for us. All our guests said how great the space was, and in the early evening in particular the grounds looked stunning. Thank you again to you and everyone at the venue.
Hannah and Jack - August 2026
Thank you - everything went so smoothly and our families were delighted with the venue and arrangements. Thanks also for going above and beyond with taking photos of us. We didn’t have loads of nice ones of just us together before Friday, and now we have so many.
