AboutSomerhaus
Learn the story behind Somerhaus and meet the team that makes every event memorable.
A Space Woven from Global Threads

Somerhaus was born from the same spirit of adventure that powers our sister venue, Somerset Bar—an indoor/outdoor oasis pieced together from eight shipping containers and treasures collected on global expeditions, opened in 2021 to instant acclaim.
Walk inside and you'll see the details: a 200-year-old Japanese fishing boat suspended beneath a soaring skylight, antique village gates shipped home from India, and layered textures that feel more curated than "decorated." The result is a venue that sparks conversation the moment your guests walk through the door.
