Introducing Somerset’s newest Weddings and Functions space…
The Water Wheel Suite; situated within the walls of the 17th Century, Grade II Listed Paper Mill at Wookey Hole, is a unique and elegant space able to lend itself beautifully to any occasion. Entitled the Water Wheel Suite, the name is derived from the stunning views offered through one of the many great windows of this room. Restored and revitalised, this room captures the true essence of Wookey Hole’s past. Inside, carved panels of exposed brickwork allude to this building’s rich heritage, offering a rustic look while contrasting with the most elegant interior. For weddings, this space can be beautifully illuminated and adorned to suit your individual desires.
