My favourite place for a meeting. Have visited here many times now with my company Lifetime Training, including today ( Jess looked after us very well - thank you). Lovely dining room area suitable for a meeting of 20 or so people, and lots of smaller spaces that can be used for groups/working space. The beautiful environment inspires relaxed, positive, and productive meetings. The lunches offered are simple but enjoyable and much better than the limp sandwiches you find on offer elsewhere. Totally recommend. More...

We love Woodlands Castle, it is situated on the outskirts of Taunton, Somerset and is the perfect location for a country wedding. We had the privilege of photographing a wedding here recently which is a dream come true for the both of us as it is such a beautiful setting for wedding photographs. Set in private grounds with the prettiest 17th century country house, beautiful parkland for photographs (and the fact we live 10 minutes away!) makes this one of our favourite venues in Somerset! The staff were friendly and very professional and made sure the wedding day ran smoothly, we look forward to returning again soon to photograph another wedding. More...

We got married at Woodlands Castle on the 3rd August this year and honestly we could not have asked for a more amazing day! Holly who co-ordinated our wedding was FANTASTIC! We live in Bangkok and Holly was great at helping us organise from afar by email and was happy to meet at a time that suited us when we returned 5 weeks before the wedding. She guided us through the organising with professionalism but also a really relaxed and friendly approach. On the day, lots of our guests fed back how friendly the team was and how Holly and Julie helped with anything that was needed. They were great fun to have as part of the day and the morning of the wedding set up anything that was needed and took any stress that I may have had away. We were even able to set up the day before (as there was no wedding on) and had great fun doing so. The venue is incredible, our guests loved the setting and the evening fire pits were a big hit. I couldn't recommend it more. Our wedding day was perfect. Thank you! xx More...

My husband and I got married at Woodlands Castle in July and we couldn't be happier with how our day went. It was perfect. All of our guests commented on how relaxed and beautiful the venue was. We had a lot of guests travelling long distance and having the ceremony and reception in one place was really ideal. Having hotels close by was also really handy. All of the wedding coordinators that we saw in the two years of planning were really helpful and communicated well and all of the staff were friendly. The catering was exactly what we wanted as we had some coeliac guests and all of this was catered for with care. We would recommend Woodlands Castle to anyone wanting to get married. Absolutely stunning. Sally & Adam Farmer xx More...

We got married at Woodlands Castle in June, and we couldn't of wished for a better day, it was just perfect! We booked the venue over 18 months before the wedding day, we were slightly unfortunate that we had 3 different wedding coordinators due to staff turnover and illness, so this caused some stress closer to the day with missing details, however Kamila was very organised and resolved all the issues very promptly for us. The night before we were able to drop off all our decorations, flowers and outfits with the team and provided some instructions on where everything needed to be. On the day, it was all laid out exactly how we imagined and all looked perfect. We had access to the house from 9am on the day for me and my bridesmaids to get ready. We were welcomed by continental breakfast and hot drinks for all of us, we went down very nicely as it was a few hours before the wedding breakfast. The staff left us to get ready which made us all feel very relaxed, right up until it was time to walk down the aisle. On the day all the staff were very friendly right up until it was time to leave. Quite a few of guests mentioned on the bar staff being up for a good laugh. The house and the gardens are beautiful, you could not fault it. It is all kept up together very well. We had many comments on how pretty and perfect it was. Would recommend this venue to any engaged couples if you are looking for a informal and relaxed wedding day! More...

Woodlands is perfect for weddings and events, set in some beautiful grounds it's ideal for wedding photography and superbly located too. On top of that it's supported by an incredible staff team who always go the extra mile for both customers and vendors alike. As a photographer working a wedding or event there is simply a dream come true. Highly recommended. More...

We held our wedding here on Sunday 6th May 2018. From start to finish Abigail and the team couldn't do enough to make our day perfect. During the planning stages Abigail was accommodating to our requests and changes and provides load of options to make the day your own. All our guests were blown away by the beauty of the venue and the professional and friendly atmosphere of the day. The food and drink was fantastic and the venue provides plenty of different options for getting ready and for photos. We were so lucky to be able to have our ceremony on the outside veranda which looks amazing in our photos and videos. More...

I attended a wake here – a sit down buffet for 30 people. The food and drink was to a high standard (the nicest caramelised onion and cheese tarts I have tasted and decent tasting coffee) and a wide range of food (lots of different meats, porkpies, tarts, different breads, salads etc). The staff were really helpful, plentiful parking and just off the motorway. It was the perfect place for the occasion. Thank you More...

A manor house that has been made into a venue for weddings, parties & conference facilities both large & very small.
Good parking although access for the disabled may be awkward unless attending a wedding in the marquee at the rear.
Most of the meeting rooms are upstairs.

We had our reception here on 20th May 2017 - what an amazing venue with amazing staff, the wedding coordinators were great and couldn't have done anything more to make our afternoon and evening the most special day of our lives. All our guests were commenting on how lovely everything was. The food and drink was amazing we even had to source where we could get the fruit cider as everyone loved it! We couldn't have wished for a better venue with a better team of staff - thank you all so much. Love Mr and Mrs Millett xxx More...

We had our wedding at Woodlands Castle on Friday 2nd September and it really was the best day. We had a few wedding planners in the 18 months since we first booked Woodlands, but we had Thomas during the last few months and on the actual day and he ensured that everything ran smoothly. He did everything we asked and was a great help on the day. I wish we could do it all again! More...
