Whether as a location for weddings and wedding receptions, as a private or corporate party venue, for conferences and a product launches or as a film location, you can be sure of a warm welcome at history-steeped Halston, one of Shropshire's most attractive country houses. The rooms, spacious and well-furnished, are bright with fragrant flowers fresh from the garden. You can recapture the peaceful atmosphere of days gone by, when horse-drawn carriages clattered up the drive.

Situated in fabulous secluded parkland set well back from the Oswestry-Ellesmere road and overlooking two lakes the Grade 1 listed William and Mary house is the focal point of a 600-acre estate with a home farm. Halston also boasts one of only two timber-framed churches in Shropshire. Experts believe it was built towards the end of the 15th century.

Today's house of mellow brick embellished with equally attractive stonework was built in 1690, then 'modernised' by Robert Mylne in the 1760s. His talents created one of Shropshire's most noteworthy 18th century interiors, according to no less an expert than Sir Nikolaus Pevsner.

Weddings
Halston is available as a venue for your wedding. Unlike hotels, if you hold your wedding here the whole venue is yours and yours alone for the duration. Smaller receptions can be held inside the house and for larger ones a marquee can be used. The historic chapel, one of only two timber-framed churches in Shropshire, is also available for marriage blessings.

Residential
Halston has a number of cottages available to rent. With excellent transport links and beautiful countryside on your doorstep, the estate really is a superb place to live.

Sporting
Halston has an excellent, well-established pheasant, duck and partridge syndicate shoot. For more information please contact us.

Lakes
Halston Estate contains two lakes: the 18 acre Big Wood Lake and the 6 acre House Lake.
