The wedding of my dreams

I feel incredibly lucky to have got married at Boconnoc almost a year ago! My husband and I wanted an elegant venue but somewhere that people could feel relaxed and at home, and that is exactly what Boconnoc offers. We had seen four other venues before Boconnoc and it stood out by miles and miles.

It’s an exceptionally beautiful estate that has been thoughtfully restored. We hired the entire venue so that a big portion of our guests could stay on-site and it made everything so easy and relaxed. We had all our bridesmaids and their partners (13 in total) stay in the newly-renovated Stewardry and they loved being altogether and had the best time. Staying in the main house felt so luxurious and we felt thoroughly spoilt. We had a party the night before the wedding in the stable block and hired a local pizza van to cater which gave our guests staying on-site the chance to mingle before the wedding. There is so much flexibility with this venue - you really can tailor it exactly how you want. Having the church on-site is an incredibly unique experience and it’s a really beautiful place to get married if you want a church wedding. There are so many beautiful places on the estate to take photos - we were spoilt for choice which definitely wasn’t the case with other venues we had visited.

All of the staff, from the events manager to the on-site manager and housekeeper were incredible. I had a lot of questions and requests, and nothing was too much trouble for them! The staff also included some wonderfully thoughtful touches like providing afternoon tea for us the day before our wedding, which we hadn’t expected. The preferred supplier list is full of incredibly talented and high quality vendors and we honestly couldn’t have asked for more from our wedding venue.

Everyone helped us make memories that will last a lifetime and so many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to, which is a huge testament to everyone at Boconnoc. I absolutely adore this place and I love that they hire out the buildings for holiday hire as well, as we definitely want to go back with our family and friends and re-live some of our memories!

Stunning Location!

We went to Boconnoc House for a wedding. Stunning location and if using the church ( which is lovely) everything on the proverbial door step. The food
was very good and choices much more appealing than you usually expect for a wedding. An amazing house and grounds and certainly as a guest a big recommendation for others if planning their big day.

Stunning wedding and event venue

Boconnoc is simply stunning! I was lucky enough to help plan a wedding at Boconnoc in June and it is just wonderful. The house has been beautifully restored with lovely reception rooms and lots of accommodation for guests. If you are looking for a wedding or event venue I would recommend Boconnoc in a heart beat. The estate is gorgeous, house magical and staff exceptional! Highly rated! Helen Hopkins, Pudding Bridge

A Truly Magnificent and Magical Place

I got married at Boconnoc just over 4 weeks ago and I honestly could not have asked for a more wonderful venue. We had the whole event within the Stable Block and hired all the rooms within the house and the 3 cottages. This meant we could have the best of both worlds in the sense we had the luxurious accommodation but the rustic and relaxed feel we wanted for our wedding. The estate is breathtaking and has many beautiful walks. The house has been stylishly updated and all the bedrooms are luxurious especially the Kings Bedroom. The 3 cottages are also beautiful, my personal favourite being The Dairy Cottage which we are already talking about having a holiday in. The Stable Block consists of several rooms, a kitchen and a stunning courtyard area. It was perfect for hosting the wedding of our dreams. On top of all of this, the staff at Boconnoc were extremely helpful and tolerant of my endless emails full of questions, especially in the week before the wedding. Once we were on site there was always a member of staff on hand to help with any queries and offering to do things. I never believed I could be so relaxed on my wedding day but Boconnoc with its breathtaking surroundings and wonderful staff made that possible. My husband and I cannot thank them enough for making our magical day happen. Ourselves and our guests are still talking about it constantly

The Most Perfect Day

We got married in April and the day was absolutely perfect! This was largely down to the incredible team at Boconnoc who supported us. They were professional but with a friendly manner which had an impact on all of our family and friends. Since booking the venue Boconnoc could not have been more helpful answering all of our questions. They went above and beyond for us to make it a success. We look forward to visiting more events at Boconnoc in the future!

A Hidden Gem!

Boconnoc for us was our only choice of wedding venue. A hidden gem, we were so excited to have shared such a peaceful and beautiful location with all of our family and friends celebrating our wedding. The staff at Boconnoc are welcoming and kind. They made sure everything went perfectly for our day (even trying their hand at sewing!!). Our wedding photos taken by Victoria Walker in the garden's of Boconnoc are stunning, with the grande trees, the victorian wall and water feature in the Dorothy garden, all of the flowers were blossoming at that time of the year. Victoria said it is a photographers dream to photograph! It was the perfect day for us, the sun shone in a sky of blue, not a cloud insight. Our whole experience was a positive one and I highly recommend Boconnoc for your event or special occasion. The only downside is that I don't get to live there!!! However with their on going events we can visit for our anniversary every year :) We are both excited to visit again for the Boconnoc Flower show next year

April 2015

We wanted to thank all the team at Boconnoc for all your help, information, organisation and hard work in the run up to the wedding and throughout our special day. Andy and I managed to spend so much time at Boconnoc in the month before the wedding, and we felt so lucky to be able to do this, especially as we were made to feel so at home there, it was incredibly difficult to leave! This in turn helped make our Wedding Day so perfect, in every way.
I cannot put in to words how fantastic our time at Boconnoc was, just thinking about it brings a tear to my eye, and a lump to my throat, and that was largely thanks to Clare and the team and the beauty of the estate.
Boconnoc is truly a 'magical' place, it's the only word that comes close. We very much look forward to visiting again (and again) and rekindling the special memories of our day on 11th April 2015, as it will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Words couldnt describe how wonderful this place i

We had our wedding at this location on the 30th of May this year. The wonderful experience started when we were shown around by the very lovely owner herself Elizabeth, she was charming and welcoming and had us hooked from day one.

The lead up to the wedding was stressful, however made easier by the help and assistance of Boconnoc staff, where nothing was to much trouble. The relaxed nature of this venue/staff and the service they provided allows you escape into your very own dream ( pride and prejudice!). This venue is truly so very special and delivers a priceless magical experience, which you could never have any where else.

We had unusual requirements due to some sad times with my father in law being very poorly with a terminal illness and this was considered in so many ways with so so much kindness, which words could never describe how grateful we will be.

It was an honour to get married here and meet all the incredible people that work here and the family that own Boconnoc. Clare especially we would like to thank most of all, you worked so hard and we will remember you in our special weekend for many many years to come.

Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stunning Wedding Venue

Our daughter and her fiance were married here on July 14th and we could not have had a better venue for the event. The house is stunning and offers a blank canvas for the wedding of your dreams.

We booked the house and the cottages for our family and friends and all were delighted with the facilities, which are both comfortable and impressive.

The reception rooms, which we used for the wedding, are spacious and beautifully decorated in keeping with the period of the house. We had the use of four large reception rooms, so that there was plenty of space for people to chat or dance without encroaching on each other. We dined in the lovely garden room and the bar was set up in a separate room too. The Boconnoc staff arranged tables as we required and were discreetly available as necessary.

The gardens and grounds are equally lovely and again the tables were set up as we requested.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Boconnoc for a wedding or family parties and certainly hope to go there again.

Absolutely perfect wedding

We fell in love with Boconnoc from the moment we first saw it and knew straight away we wanted to get married there. Set in picturesque grounds the house itself is absolutely magnificent...and dog friendly so we could have our little puppy there with us for the big day!

We arranged our wedding in just over two and a half months as when we saw it in the beginning of January this year they only had one weekend available until the latter part of this year. We booked the house and cottages for the whole weekend and enjoyed a lovely family dinner for everyone that had travelled down from afar, in the Soane Room on the friday evening.

Words cannot describe how completely perfectly everything ran, both on the Friday and also on the big day itself. We were married in the old Bath house and it was the most incredible setting. As luck would have it the sun was out and the birds were singing during our vows, it was amazing.

We really just had the best wedding day imaginable and I cannot thank Clare and all those that helped enough for an all round weekend of a lifetime. I would highly recommend getting married here and we will definitely be returning for a holiday at Boconnoc in the future!

Sons Wedding

My son Mark and his beautiful bride had what I can only describe as a dream wedding at Bocconnoc House on the Easter weekend of this year. The breath taking surroundings gave all the guests and their children a place to relax and explore over the weekend as many stayed in the wonderful accommodation available, Claire was even able to recommend places near by for other guests as well.We even managed to arrange an Easter egg hunt knowing the children were all safe. My son chose The Bathhouse for the ceremony and accompanied by the sun and singing birds I was able, through my tears,to watch a very romantic cornish wedding ceremony performed by a lovely celebrant. The following meal and evening celebrations ran so smoothly thanks to the fantastic caterers ,florists, etc recommended by Claire. The whole weekend thanks to Claire and her staff will be talked about for a long time and I know several guests will be visiting again in the future.If anyone wants a place to stay with a touch of sheer luxury then Bocconnoc is to be recommended.Thank you Claire and I will probably see you for my Golden wedding celebrations!

Amazing wedding day!

Boconnoc is a very special place with so much history, atmosphere and stunning scenery. Clare, Elizabeth and Sam effortlessly made it the most friendly and relaxed location to gather all our nearest and dearest together for what was the most amazing day of our lives. Getting engaged in October 2014 we realised how lucky we were to be fortunate enough that they had a free weekend in April and a spring wedding sounded perfect. Clare helped with many initial ideas, providing a list of recommended suppliers including Fee Turner Catering who's team served up a delicious feast on the day. The stunning setting in the Cornish countryside, with beautiful gardens, elegant house and ancient church was a very special place to share our wedding with so many friends and family and the set-up at Boconnoc made it so easy with accommodation on site in the refurbished stable yard cottages and bedrooms in the main house meaning many could stay onsite, giving the weekend a house party atmosphere. The room layout inside the house was ideal for the reception, wedding breakfast, and drinks and dancing afterwards. Throughout the day, someone was always on hand and even to help our guests who'd forgotten to book taxis at the end of the night!
Boconnoc Church is beautiful, and Canon John Hawkes made all our guests feel very welcome, giving a very joyful service, and commenting on everyone's enthusiastic singing! From our first stages of planning, all the way through to the day itself everyone involved from the caterers to the local printer and antique shop in Lostwithiel helped make it an unforgettable day! Thank you to everyone who made it possible.
