Bath Rugby headquarters at Farleigh House can no longer host weddings following Somerset Council decision
Überblick
Somerset Council has ruled that Bath Rugby can no longer host weddings at its Farleigh House headquarters without separate planning permission. The decision follows complaints from local residents regarding noise from music, traffic management issues, late-night departures, and early-morning deliveries. While existing wedding bookings for the year will be honoured, the venue is no longer accepting new enquiries for weddings or corporate events. However, the council approved a certificate of lawfulness allowing corporate events aligned with the original training facility permission, subject to specific restrictions.
