Our Story
Welcome to the Gardens of Aberfeldy
Tucked away in the Parish of Somerset is an enchanting oasis that captures the depth and essence of Bermuda’s heritage. You are instantly transported into the tranquility of a bygone era from the moment you turn into the tree-covered lane that gently winds its way through the grounds. Spot the Olivewood Bark, Bermuda Cedar, Palmettos and an array of exotic birds and rare roses that thrive here.
Our two-storey Georgian family home was once the home of Wil Onions, Bermuda’s best known and most influential architect of the 20th Century. This stunning house is surrounded by 4-acres of mature trees, terraced gardens, vine-covered pergolas and sweeping lawns and is a spectacular backdrop for your ultimate fairy tale wedding or bespoke outdoor event.
We offer space for up to 130 invited guests and have onsite parking.
