About Avalen Farm
Avalen Farm is a family-run wedding venue set amongst 100 acres of beautiful Cornish countryside, just outside Bodmin. Our historic granite barns and working farm have been lovingly transformed into a relaxed and welcoming wedding venue, full of character and surrounded by nature.
We host weddings exclusively on Wednesdays and Saturdays, giving us the time to make each celebration personal and unique to you.
Your Wedding at Avalen
Choose to say your vows in our beautiful ceremony room, with high ceilings, exposed beams and large windows overlooking the countryside, or get married beneath our ancient Sycamore tree for a truly special outdoor ceremony.
Afterwards, our traditional courtyard is the perfect place to enjoy welcome drinks, lawn games and time with your guests before heading into our purpose-built dining barn for your wedding breakfast and evening celebrations. The barn can accommodate up to 120 guests and has space for dining, dancing and entertainment.
Our fully staffed bar is at the heart of the celebrations, while our surrounding countryside provides plenty of beautiful spaces for photographs and quiet moments away from the main festivities.
Accommodation & Extras
Our on-site Cart House provides accommodation for up to eight guests and includes a beautiful honeymoon suite, making it the perfect place to stay and relax before and after your wedding. Additional accommodation for up to 26 guests is also available nearby at our sister farm.
We also offer styling, décor and finishing touches to help bring your vision to life, from table styling and flowers to lawn games and other personalised details.
Our Approach
We want planning your wedding to feel exciting rather than overwhelming. Our friendly team will be there from your first viewing through to your wedding day, helping you plan, organise and bring all those little details together.
You are also welcome to choose your own caterer, photographer, entertainment and other suppliers, giving you the freedom to create a day that feels completely yours.
At Avalen, it's not just about booking a venue – it's about celebrating with the people you love, surrounded by the Cornish countryside, in a place that feels relaxed, personal and completely your own.

Amazing Venue
Thank you very much to everyone who made our special day one we will remember forever.
Special thanks to Neil, Claire and Shaleigh who were absolute superstars!!!!
Best Venue
Perfect venue
The team are amazing, we dealt with Meg whilst arranging our wedding, she sorted everything and made sure nothing was missed.
The whole team are always on hand to sort anything you may need nothing is too much trouble for them to sort.
Perfection from start to finish
When we initially booked a viewing, contacting the team was so simple and we would get email replies within hours and not weeks like some! Nothing was too much trouble with days and timings and who we could bring and how many times we could view. We felt no pressure to commit to anything and all of our questions were answered from day one.
The price was so reasonable, again, compared to other venues of this scale in Cornwall it was an incredible price.
The venue itself is so beautiful, if it's a natural, rustic barn style wedding you are after but with onsite accommodation and all the mod cons then this is the one for you! The bridal suite (house!) Is absolutely stunning with loads of space for all your crew and the most stunning roman bathtub. It's also mere feet away from the ceremony room so no travel required!
in the lead up and on the day, nothing was too much trouble and everything was completely seamless. We were having some issues with my entrance music because it was a song on YouTube rather than Spotify but the team sorted it and sorted the timing as if it was nothing and it went perfectly.
They worked seamlessly with our hired suppliers, they have a huge professional catering kitchen on site and the grounds of the venue are huge with loading entrances and doors for equipment and decor load and unload. So much parking as well as additional accommodation you can book offsite for your guests and they run a shuttle bus for us to and from the venue so everyone could relax and enjoy.
They honestly gave us the wedding of our dreams and I cant thank the team at Avalen enough or give them a good enough review! Thank you so so much!
Incredible venue for the best day of our lives!
The day ran smoothly and without a hitch.
Team Avalen are truly outstanding.
The venue is absolutely stunning and we knew from the moment we were engaged we wanted to get married at Avalen, we never looked anywhere else!
The carthouse where the bride and bridesmaids stayed the night before and got ready in the next morning was beautiful
We are forever grateful for their support, hospitality and the organisation of our perfect day. I know that both of our families have spread the word across the whole of the UK about how amazing Avalen is already.
Thank you making our special day so perfect.
The perfect wedding venue, period.
Out of this world
The best day!
