About The Penrallt Country House Hotel

The Penrallt Country House is a 24-room country house hotel at Aberporth on Cardigan Bay, offering exclusive use for weddings of 50 to 60 guests, with one wedding a day.

The Penrallt Country House stands on a hillside at Aberporth, in gardens and fields that look out over Cardigan Bay. It is a country house hotel on the edge of Pembrokeshire in West Wales, with 24 bedrooms split between the main house and ten garden rooms beside it. It is a four-star hotel and has been hosting weddings, parties and other celebrations for several years.

Only one wedding is held each day. Couples can take the whole estate from midday on the wedding day until the following morning, and the wedding day suits 50 to 60 guests, with more joining in the evening. Couples choose their own suppliers and are helped by a dedicated wedding coordinator. Photographs show ceremonies on the lawn, with chairs and floral arches set out above the bay, and tables laid for the wedding meal indoors. Guests can stay on for a weekend of coastal walks, activities along the West Wales coast and treatments on site. Viewings are by appointment only.
