Nestled in the middle of the Pembrokeshire national park near Newport, Nantwen has views over open meadows and a wooded valley, with the sea and mountains moments away.
Nantwen has been hosting weddings for a long time and is a popular, discreet and memorable place to have an elopement wedding or tiny ceremony with a handful of guests. Choose an elopement with no guests or small weddings with a handful of guests. Just get in touch with us to discuss what you are thinking and we will be happy to help.
Our prices are below. We are able to accommodate most things such as additional guests staying at Nantwen. (Nantwen can sleep 5 people in 3 beds). You can have higher or lower wedding guest numbers and children. We also have a contact list of reliable local florists, caterers, cake makers, photographers, make up artists and hairdressers. You will have additional costs to the Pembrokeshire registrar, who you will need to arrange to come out to Nantwen to perform the ceremony and register the marriage. In the unlikely event of the registrar not being available after you book online then we just move your booking to another suitable date. We accept payment by Card, Bank Transfer and instalments.
