Overview

Venue at a glance

St Fagan’s Castle is a fabulous example of Elizabethan architecture with interiors furnished to reflect the lives of the family in residence at the end of the 19th century. A perfect setting for an intimate wedding of up to 40 guests, the castle boasts rich tapestries, opulent rose-wood and oak furniture, and wonderful portraits.

The Oakdale Workmen’s Institute
Moved brick by brick from the close community of Oakdale, Caerphilly, the Workmen’s Institute is a fantastic building for corporate away days, weddings and receptions. The building evokes a sense of late Victorian splendour with original fittings and furniture sitting side by side with modern corporate facilities. The Concert Hall can comfortably seat up to 70 people, has a wonderful sprung floor for dancing and an original stage for any entertainment.

The Gardens
The formal gardens at St Fagans reflect the types of gardens that developed around the great houses of the gentry. The walled Italian Garden has delicate orange trees, rare roses and a tranquil pool. The Edwardian Rosery offers the intoxicating romance of a secret garden with medieval fish ponds, a splendid formal parterre and a landscaped arboretum. These gardens are perfect for wedding parties and receptions and are an unequalled talking point for any corporate gathering or hospitality.
