About Davenport House

Davenport House is an enchanting country estate and family residence, an exclusive wedding venue in Bridgnorth, Shropshire. Set amidst the picturesque countryside at the end of a sweeping driveway, this idyllic Georgian house has been hosting weddings for 25 years. Now, this magical venue invites you and your guests to step inside and make yourselves at home, surrounded by the history, warmth, and elegance of the property.

Entering this great house through the magnificent double doors, you might choose to say ‘I do’ in The Great Hall. At the very heart of the home, this is the perfect place in which to say your vows. Alternatively, marry in another of the great rooms, or between the pillars on the front steps of Davenport House.

The Great Hall leads through to the beautiful Saloon with its marquetry floor. It is here that you might enjoy welcome drinks and canapés along with breathtaking views over the lawns beyond. Outside, the terrace, lily pond and secluded secret garden provide a sublime setting in which to mingle on warmer days.

Luring your guests in to dine, The Dining Room features original panelling painted in elegant ‘tea green’. And, as day turns to evening, The Great Hall becomes your dance floor, while guests might also choose to relax in The Saloon or The Dining Room.

Eight luxurious en-suite bedrooms are located in the main house, while four cottages in the grounds offer self-catering accommodation. A further cottage is offered as your bridal preparation area. From intimate to lavish, and from contemporary style to the more traditional, Davenport House is your country estate that can make your dream wedding a reality.
