The Manor in Somerset dates back to the 13th century, but there’s nothing aged about its approach to celebrations: there’s space for up to 24, all the necessary technological flourishes, a dramatic banquet hall for decadent dinners, a pool table, and romantic rooms to retreat to, post-party. In quieter moments (or for al fresco events), the gorgeous grounds beckon – have a picnic on the lawns or a dip in the heated outdoor pool, admire the koi pond and the wild lake, or play a game of tennis on the courts. Whatever your desire – be it a private chef and a cocktail and canapé reception, or a walking tour of the scenic countryside – the owners will make it happen.
