Director
Will has been working to convert his family home into an events venue since 2023. He lives on site and has a Great Dane and a pet cat named Sybil (after Fawlty Towers!).

Telekinesis. I'd get so lazy though.

Kassidy Heath
Sales Director
Kassidy first came to Berwick House way back in 2015 - and we’re not sure what’s more surprising - the fact that she agreed to redevelop Berwick House into a wedding venue, or marry Will!
Kassidy leads the events & sales team and you’ll normally find her on a run or taking new bookings.

Charlie Harris
Porter
Charlie has been working as the very first Porter at Berwick House, a role we made just for him, since 2023.
Although he originally applied for the Bartender job at 16 years old (you have to be minimum 18 to work the bar at Berwick!), we had to give him a role one way or another. It's an indispensable position and Charlie loves the diversity of it.

Of course!
