What does a wedding at Court Farm look like?

Your weekend: Your booking includes two nights accommodation for up to 14 guests, arriving Friday morning. After a Friday spent styling the venue with as much or as little as you choose (Court Farm really doesn’t need anything at all, but you are welcome to personalise the space as much as you would like), spend the evening with 14 of your closest family and friends staying in our boutique accommodation. On Saturday, start your rustic country wedding day exchanging vows with a ceremony in the open air, charming English Courtyard. Or tie the knot at one of our lovely local churches, and enjoy your reception bubbles and canapes in the Courtyard amongst the fig trees, lavender and white roses. Meander towards the miniature pony meadow and The Woolshed; a spectacular industrial-chic space to host a wedding breakfast, and a great alternative to a marquee. It seats up to 108 and is furnished with rustic trestle tables, antique chairs, elegant floral hoops and festival festoon lighting (the tables and chairs can be moved to suit your favoured arrangement). Then escort your guests to The Rustic Barn. Nestled amongst the grounds at Court Farm is a beautiful, vaulted rustic barn with exposed brick walls and a high beamed roof overlooking the apple orchard and duck pond, the perfect backdrop for a romantic country style wedding and a truly unique setting for post speech dancing, a band/DJ and bar! Dance the night away under the vintage chandeliers, and between your favourite songs, toast a marshmallow under the stars at the fire pit.

Testimonials

The Perfect Place To Hold Our Wedding Our search for the perfect place to hold our wedding was over the moment we saw Court Farm. Not only was the barn the ideal spot for dancing the night away, but the setting was just gorgeous. Everything felt connected and our guests had a wonderful time moseying between the barn, horsebox bar & firepit! As if that wasn't enough, the accommodation was just perfect. After a long, hot Friday setting everything up, to be able to just kick back with a celebratory glass of fizz in the lovely accommodation courtyard and eat dinner with our closest friends and family was a really relaxing way to end the day. The beds are super comfy, so we all got a good nights sleep and there was bags of room for all of us to get ready the next day. The whole set up, beautiful setting and Jess and Ian’s kind & friendly support meant we had the most amazing day!
