The Hundred House Hotel

About

The Hundred House Hotel in Norton, Shropshire hosts weddings in a 17th-century oak tithe barn, where exposed beams, original stonework, a secret garden and rambling herb gardens give the day an easy, rustic romance. It has been voted Best Barn Wedding Venue in the West Midlands four times and Best Events Team in the UK for 2025. Pricing is fully transparent with no hidden costs. Packages often come in below competitors. The seven bedrooms are wonderfully eccentric, with antique furniture, chandeliers, Victoria and Albert en-suite bathrooms and handmade swings hanging from the oak beams. Rustic, romantic or bohemian festival, the team delivers it with warmth, skill and real value.

For smaller numbers, the Hundred House runs a Small and Intimate package covering 40 daytime and 60 evening guests, which takes in the Tithe Barn, the Garden Room Barn, the Enchanted Gardens and the couple's suite free of charge when all available rooms are booked. It is listed as running up to 23 December 2026 and can be withdrawn, so check what replaces it. Below the package minimums, Micro Weddings are offered on Mondays and Tuesdays outside bank holidays, quoted individually by the wedding manager, and the venue gives an 18-guest wedding as an example.

The venue is licensed for civil ceremonies in the Tithe Barn and in the Courtroom, which suits a smaller ceremony. Afterwards guests usually move to the Garden Room for drinks, though confetti is not allowed there because of its landscaped floor. The barn, Garden Room and gardens are yours alone for the day, while the hotel restaurant carries on serving diners with a separate team and kitchen, so the two never cross.

Everything is cooked from scratch in the venue's own kitchen. You can give all guests the same meal or offer three choices per course, and with notice the head chef will design a bespoke menu. Dietary needs are handled dish by dish. The team does not allow undercatering, so every guest on the list needs to be fed, and miniature bottle favours carry a corkage charge.

The hotel has ten bedrooms, and every available room is held for you so you decide who stays. There is also a separate getting-ready carriage in the gardens with space for up to eight, including hair and make-up artists. One honest caveat: the bedrooms are reached only by stairs with no lift, although the barn itself is fully accessible with accessible toilets. The nearest hotel with lift access is about five minutes away, and there are more than 20 places to stay within seven miles of Norton.
