Pendennis Castle

Wedding days or events set in this most magnificent castle can make the most of both its Tudor history and its breathtaking position. Its romantic and towering keep set within a walled ‘chemise’, expansive lawns, banqueting rooms within a former Edwardian barracks and its panoramic vista, could be exclusively yours.

Built in the 1540’s by King Henry VIII, Pendennis Castle has stood for five centuries protecting the British mainland from foreign invaders. It is said that the Spanish Armada of 1588 was first sighted from Pendennis.

Its superb position as a look-out, today gives it extensive sea views, making it one of the most enviable wedding ceremony and reception locations in the land. As well as its centuries-old keep, it offers a series of versatile rooms with contemporary styling in an Edwardian building to give occasions the very best of both ancient and modern in one lovely site.

For both weddings or events, English Heritage provides the services of a hospitality professional to help fine tune arrangements as well as a range of carefully chosen accredited suppliers – from caterers to florists – to ensure every occasion runs smoothly and to the highest possible standards.
