About
Pengenna Manor
Pengenna Manor is a historic exclusive-use events venue set in its own secluded valley near Wadebridge on the North Cornwall coast. Centred around an 800-year-old manor house, the estate encompasses converted barns, gardens, outdoor event areas and more than 300 acres of private countryside and woodland, providing complete privacy for corporate events, celebrations, weddings and residential gatherings.
The venue is particularly flexible, with clients able to hire anything from an individual room for a few hours to multiple spaces or the wider estate. Events can range from intimate meetings to large-scale occasions for up to 350 guests, with indoor barn spaces, marquee options, accommodation and extensive outdoor areas available. Pengenna works with both clients' own suppliers and recommended suppliers, making bespoke events very achievable.
Event Spaces
Cowyard Barn
The principal indoor event space, the rustic Cowyard Barn provides a flexible blank canvas with an adjoining courtyard, bar and space for pop-up catering kitchens. Current event information gives capacities of approximately 96 for dinner, 48 boardroom and up to 150 theatre style.
The Stables
A characterful converted stable building offering a smaller indoor event space. The venue publishes capacities of approximately 32 for dinner and 65 theatre style, with a projector and drop-down screen available, making it particularly useful for meetings, presentations and smaller corporate gatherings.
Drawing Room
Located within the historic Manor House, the Drawing Room accommodates approximately 20 seated guests and provides an intimate setting for meetings, private dining and smaller gatherings.
Marquee Garden
A purpose-designed outdoor area capable of accommodating bespoke marquees for events of up to 350 guests. This gives Pengenna considerably greater capacity for gala dinners, parties, exhibitions and large private events than its permanent indoor spaces.
Walled Garden
The Walled Garden provides an attractive outdoor reception and event setting in front of the Manor House for approximately 150 guests.
Drinks Terrace
Located in the main garden, the terrace benefits from sweeping views across the valley and can accommodate drinks receptions for 200+ guests.
Cowyard
The characterful former livestock yard outside the Barn provides another outdoor reception space for approximately 150 guests.
Grounds & Woodland
More than 300 acres of countryside and woodland open up considerable possibilities for team building, corporate away days, outdoor events, filming, photography and sporting activities. Pengenna specifically promotes its grounds for outdoor and corporate events.
Facilities and Services
Pengenna offers flexible exclusive hire, event coordination, bars, catering areas, AV in selected spaces, outdoor event areas and accommodation. Organisers can work with their own suppliers or use businesses recommended by the venue.

Why Hire
Pengenna offers considerably more flexibility than a conventional country-house venue. The ability to hire individual rooms, event spaces or the wider estate means it can accommodate everything from a small business meeting to a 350-person event without requiring every client to take the same package.
It also has proven corporate credentials. Pengenna specifically advertises corporate events and business meetings, and its website highlights a trade show for Cornish retailers that used the Cowyard Barn for the presentation of a new clothing collection.
