Five Centuries of Welcome

Caswell House is a 15th-century Cotswold stone estate that has been welcoming people since 1485. Run today by siblings Kate and Will, it carries more than five centuries of character into every celebration. Three beautifully restored barns sit within landscaped courtyards and private gardens, surrounded by the quiet of the English countryside. It is soulful, sustainable, and exclusively yours from morning until midnight and beyond.

Ceremonies

Three Barns. One Perfect Day.

Ceremonies take place beneath the 15th-century Loggia archway or within the historic barn, where Cotswold stone walls and warm natural light create a setting of quiet beauty. The landscaped courtyards host cocktail receptions. Rymonds Barn and Bartletts Barn carry the celebration into dinner, dancing, and late into the evening. The Oak Bar opens for the night. Every transition feels unhurried because the estate is yours.

Caswell Kitchen

Local, Seasonal, Entirely Yours

The Caswell Kitchen team builds every wedding menu from the ground up. Local, sustainable sourcing. Seasonal ingredients. The choice of elegant plated meals, relaxed family-style feasts, or something entirely bespoke. Canapes flow through the courtyard reception. The wedding feast is served in the barn. Late-night dancing snacks keep the celebration going. No corkage on daytime drinks, bring your own Prosecco, wines, and Pimms. The evening bar is stocked with curated wines, spirits, and signature cocktails.

Rymonds Barn

The heart of the celebration. Ceremony and dining in a soaring Cotswold stone barn where natural light pours through and centuries of warmth are present in every beam and wall.

Ceremonies and Dining

Bartletts Barn

Where the evening unfolds. Dancing, The Oak Bar, and the energy of a night that belongs entirely to you and your guests in a space designed to hold it all.

Evening and Dancing

The Loggia

A 15th-century archway framing outdoor ceremonies. Stone, sky, and the English countryside as your backdrop. One of the most photographed moments at Caswell House.

Outdoor Ceremonies

The Courtyards

Landscaped and private, the courtyards move the celebration outdoors between ceremony and dinner. Cocktails on the lawn, guests mingling under open sky.
