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

Nothing was ever too much trouble and was effortlessly coordinatedDECEMBER, 2024

From the moment we drove down Pentillie drive with the breath taking views we knew we found what we where looking for our magical place to say I do. We received the most wonderful welcome and where put at ease right away that everything would be handled perfectly. All staff at Pentillie are super efficient. Chrissie is definitely the fairy godmother with Stephen close by working effortlessly together. We had some ideas of what we wanted (our own caterer, wedding photographer) and that we would like a Ceilidh band but no idea who. All this was sorted with contacts that Pentillie have used and trusted over the years. Nothing was ever too much trouble and was effortlessly coordinated. With them being their own unique team and own place we streamed line our dream wedding with what we wanted as a couple. This stress free experience from beginning to end was just amazing.

Sarah & Richard

The weekend as a whole was so utterly perfect JUNE, 2024

We were so fortunate that we got to celebrate our wedding over 3 days at Pentillie Castle, so there are so so many great memories to choose from. The weekend as a whole was so utterly perfect, but I think the one element that will stick with us was just the overwhelming sense of love and joy in the room.

Abigail & Charlie

Pentillie ticked all the boxes on paper APRIL, 2024

Pentillie ticked all the boxes on ‘paper’ and then speaking with Chrissie [Pentillie’s Wedding Manager] ‘sold’ it. She was so organised, informative, and attentive that we knew it was the venue before we even visited. We never once second-guessed our choice.

Kristen & Sepehr
