Kerry W. Sent on 06/12/2024A dream garden wedding venue!
We had our garden party wedding at the Gwyn Careg Inn on June 8, 2024, and it was an absolute dream come true. It was the first—and only—venue we toured, and we knew as soon as we saw the grounds and met Rose that it was the one. The gardens are stunning, the food was excellent (and accommodated a variety of dietary restrictions!), and Rose and her team made the whole day run so smoothly. I never had to worry about staying on schedule or checking the time because the Gwyn Careg team was so on top of everything. It was wonderful to enjoy our wedding day without having to think about coordinating anything! Our guests couldn't get enough of the venue—the first question everyone asked me was "how did you find this place?!" because they were all so blown away by how beautiful it is. We also loved being able to stay at the inn with our immediate families, and are already looking forward to returning. It is such a special place. -

The most perfect venue for our special day!
We got married here on June 1, 2024 and it was everything we could have wanted it to be and more! Rose was so helpful and responsive throughout the planning process. The grounds are so beautiful on their own that we didn’t need to go overboard with decor and flowers. Everything was perfect and we could not have asked for a better venue! Our guests were in awe. The rooms are stunning and the service was above and beyond! We can’t wait to come back for one of the Inn’s other events!

Wonderful Garden Venue
The Gwyn Careg Inn was the perfect setting for our wedding of 65 people. The owner is helpful and attentive. The inn is charming and the garden and grounds are a dream. The catering partner is fantastic. Staying at the inn for the wedding was so wonderful and we hope to visit again in the future. A true gem of CT’s quiet corner. -

The Gwyn Careg Inn was everything my daughter, son in-law, and family dreamed of and more for a wedding venue!
The Inn offers a Spanish garden, where the wedding vows were exchanged. It is a beautiful timepiece surrounded by well manicured flower beds, highlighted with arrangements of seasonal flowers.
The reception was held under a large tent on the sprawling estate, near the Spanish garden, overlooking a large pond with the Inn in the background. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking!
We rented all of the lovely decoratived Inn rooms for the bride and groom, wedding party and immediate family members. Each room is lavishly decorated. The Innkeeper's attention to detail is impeccable, all the way down to ironed bed linens.
The entire experience from start to finish was wonderful. The owners and staff were professional, accommodating, incredibly friendly, and truly a pleasure to work with. Every aspect of the day went as planned; a true testament to their hard work.
We highly recommend the Gwyn Careg Inn for a wedding venue!Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Thank you Tim for your lovely review. It was such a pleasure hosting Emily and Andrew's wedding day! It was a gorgeous day for a beautiful couple. We enjoyed serving your wonderful family and friends. We do hope you have an opportunity to return for a getaway and stay in one of our guest rooms again. Best wishes, Rose & Dennis -

European Garden wedding
We loved working with Rose to create our small intimate wedding this past June! Everything was perfect and she was extremely helpful with the details and working with outside vendors. Landscaping is gorgeous and gave it a perfectly rustic garden theme with was magical.

Gwyn Careg Inn will meet your needs!
I booked The Gwyn Careg over zoom without seeing the property in person, that's how confident and safe I felt, when I met the Gwyn's owner Rose. You might think I'm crazy, but it was worth it! The Gwyn offers a fully customizable wedding. Rose is super easy to work with and makes the process fun!
I chose this venue for several reasons. First I wanted a small wedding, many venues have a minimum of at least 100/125 people, my wedding was only 75. I believe the Gwyn can accommodate up to 150 guests. Next, I loved the idea of staying at the venue for the weekend with a small group of friends and family. The Gwyn has six guest rooms, you can book all of them, or none of them (if the go unbooked, Rose does not allow anyone else to book them, so strangers won't watch you get married!) Also, The Gwyn Careg has business relationship that take care of catering and your cake! By choosing this venue, I did not have to worry about booking two vendors! Lastly, please look at my pictures. The venue and it's grounds are to die for. If you want dreamy pictures with your loved ones on a gorgeous day, choose the Gwyn Careg Inn! My photographer was like a kid in a candy store, trying to narrow down pictures!
I would recommend The Gwyn Careg and Rose to my best friend or a total stranger, it's a lovely place to stay and an even better place to get married. You will make beautiful memories and even prettier pictures here!Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Dear Lauren and Keith,
I'm just seeing this wonderful review you provided regarding your positive experience at the Gwyn Careg Inn. It was such a pleasure making your vision come to life on your special day! Both you and Keith were such a delight to work with and the long distance working relationship was seamless and most successful! I hope you have a chance to visit the Gwyn Careg Inn when you are back in Connecticut! It would be wonderful to see you both! Best wishes, Rose -

A Beautiful Intimate Experience
The Gwyn Careg is beautiful, intimate and welcoming. The Host Rose made us feel right at home, providing wonderful breakfasts and helping us pull together our wedding. We couldn't have done it without her!
The beautiful garden, small pond and lovely stonework made the ceremony just that more special. We had a very small ceremony and Rose was able to accommodate us amazingly.
Rose provided a wonderful experience for us and we hope to visit again soon!
Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Dear Caitlin,
It was such a pleasure hosting your wedding. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know you and Mariah and I hope you both make it a point to revisit the Gwyn Careg Inn. It would be so lovely to see you both again! Best wishes to you both! Warmest regards, Rose -

A little slice of heaven
I can’t even begin to describe how incredible our experience with Rosemary & Dennis of the Gwyn Careg Inn was. From the start to the end we were supported and met with joy, professionalism and memories to last a lifetime.
The rooms are unique and spacious in their style and will surely make you feel right at home. The detail in every room makes you appreciate the history of this historic inn.
The grounds, oh the grounds! They made you feel like the world around you didn’t exist. The stone walls which line the Spanish Garden was something out of a fairytale. You truly felt as though you were in the secret garden.
The horses and mini donkeys kept your experience unique and down to earth. The “girls” as Rose calls them enjoy grass and all the pets. It was special to see how much they loved the guests.
Our wedding day was nothing short of surreal. I’ve never felt more out of body then i did that day. I truly felt like a princess and the Gwyn Careg was my holy estate. You cannot beat the natural painting that is the grounds.
Words and pictures don’t even do it justice. An in person visit better get an event is a must!!! Thank you thank you we will surely be back!!Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Dear Natasha and Ryan,
Your wedding will remain a memorable one we will always remember. Thank you for allowing us to host your beautiful day! While the setting is ideal for romantic and intimate wedding ceremonies and receptions, it is truly you, our cherished guests, who make the Gwyn Careg Inn come alive. We look forward to your visit with us again. May your marriage continue to shine as the day you were married. Sincerely grateful, Rose and Dennis. -

Beautiful and Unique
The Gwyn Careg is a beautiful and secluded venue, where you’ll be the sole focus for your wedding weekend. The sky is the limit to what you can do in the space and touches you can add to personalize it. Rose & Dennis were always available to coordinate between our vendors and organize the day. They also made sure the wedding went off without a hitch. Great experience and would recommend to everyone!Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Thank you Ashleigh for your kind words. I remember your day and wish you and Andrew continued love and happiness forever after!
We hope you think of us again for other special occasions in your lives. Best wishes, Rose & Dennis -

Couldn't have had a better venue!
This was the perfect venue for our garden wedding! The location is spectacular and the property is absolutely beautiful! We loved that fact that everything was done in house, and we could have both our ceremony and reception here. We also loved that our whole wedding party and family could stay over at the Inn for the weekend, it made it that much more special. Rose and her staff were extremely helpful throughout the planning process and were very responsive and worked with us to have our dream wedding! Would definitely recommend this venue for anyone who is looking for a unique and special place to have your wedding.Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Dear Candace,
Thank you for your beautiful write-up of the Gwyn Careg Inn. We enjoyed hosting your wedding day! Both you and Matt have wonderful family and friends. The day was perfect and it was so nice to see you all having such a great time! I hope you both have an opportunity to visit us again soon! Best wishes, Rose -

What makes this inn so special are the owners - Rosemary & Dennis. They are such a lovely couple. Laid back and professional at the same time. You feel part of the family and at "home" when you stay with them.Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Dear Rhonda,
Thank you for your kind words. We thoroughly enjoy having you as our guest. It's such a pleasure hosting you and spending pockets of time with you! I hope you have the opportunity to visit us again! It gives us great pleasure to see guests again and again!
Warmest regards,

Brian W. Sent on 07/04/2022A+ would recommend
We had a magical two-part wedding here. The pandemic could have ruined things, but instead the kind and professional staff came to our rescue. It was so special that I would almost recommend people do it on purpose; have a small intimate ceremony with close family and friends, and then one year later have a big celebratory reception bash! Any way you choose to do it, the Gwyn Careg can make it happen with style. Delicious food, an enchanting garden, and a great place for a live band to set up.Gwyn Careg Inn's reply:
Dear Brian,
Thank you for providing such a wonderful review! We were so happy to accommodate you and Jackie. It was a treat to have you back, the following year of your ceremony, to host your wedding reception. God bless you and your growing family! We hope you have a chance to visit with us soon! Warmest regards, Rose and Dennis -
