Last update: November 2024

Celebrating love stories since 2015, Brinsop Court Manor House and Barn were awarded the prestigious title of number one UK wedding venue on Hitched for two consecutive years. Nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Hereford, Herefordshire, this historic estate is a picturesque haven for couples seeking a fairytale wedding.


Couples and guests step into a world of timeless elegance as vows are exchanged in the enchanting ceremony rooms within the 12th-century moated manor house. Whether it is an intimate gathering or a grand affair, the diverse indoor and outdoor spaces cater to every aspect of the celebration. The romance of the Banqueting Hall, Elizabethan Library, and Queen Anne Dining Room exudes unique charm and character.


For those dreaming of an alfresco ceremony, the enchanting woodland, courtyard, and lush lawn provide idyllic settings for those special moments. After a beautiful ceremony, guests can enjoy a refreshing drinks reception on the expansive event lawn, where celebration and joy flow freely against a backdrop of natural beauty.


As evening falls, festivities can continue into the late hours at the newly built event barn, aptly named, The Knot Barn. Floor-to-ceiling windows seamlessly blend indoor elegance with outdoor splendour. The Knot Barn is the perfect place to enjoy a sumptuous wedding breakfast while admiring panoramic views before an evening of dancing and revelry.
This is the ultimate wedding experience, with overflow accommodation for guests to immerse themselves in a tranquil pocket of ancient woodland luxury in the on-site glamping accommodation.


Couples are assigned a dedicated wedding coordinator to guide them through every step of the journey so that the day is nothing short of perfect. From exclusive use of the property to exquisite event catering, including an extensive wine list, Brinsop Court Manor House and Barn go above and beyond to create unforgettable memories.


To conclude every fairytale celebration, the signature 'recovery breakfast' for the morning after, is ideal for reminiscing on those cherished moments of the day before that will remain some of the best memories for years to come.

The Perfect Venue

We got married at the gorgeous Brinsop in October this year. It’s hard to put into words how amazing the whole experience was. We honestly had the best day of our lives!!!

We fell in love with Brinsop during our first visit back in December 2022. We knew almost immediately that Brinsop was the venue we were looking for! From the outside the venue looked like a painting - from the picturesque views of the countryside, to the swans swimming on the moat! The manor house itself has so much character, and has a lovely homely feel to it as you walk around it. Our guests were equally blown away by the venue!

A big thing for us was that it’s dog friendly, which meant we could have our two dogs join us on our special day, it wouldn’t have been the same without them there! They had so much fun walking around the grounds and greeting all of our guests!

Nina, our coordinator, and her team were always available to answer any of our questions in the run up to the day. This really put us at ease, knowing we were in safe hands. On the day, Nina and the team made sure everything ran smoothly and went above and beyond to ensure our guests were looked after. A shout out to Amy who heads up catering and Mark who manages the bar. The food and drinks were absolutely fantastic!

I highly recommend this venue! There’s a reason Brinsop is an award winning venue - and when you visit it’s not hard to see why. We are already looking forward to going back there for a date night next year! Thanks for everything Team Brinsop!

The most spectacular venue

We were lucky enough to have our wedding at Brinsop Court in December, and it was an absolutely spectacular day. We fell in love with Brinsop as soon we set our eyes on the beautiful manor and surrounding gardens. Cate, Amy, Mark and the rest of the wonderful staff at Brinsop really go the extra mile to make you feel special, and are extremely flexible with requests in order to make your day feel more special. We honestly felt like there was no request too big leading up to the day and they really made us feel extremely comfortable leading up to the day.
On the day, Cate and her team were well on hand to help us with setting up everything and she had everything under control when there were a few hiccups. The day itself was absolutely magical, and that wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for everyone at Brinsop working extremely hard to ensure that everything went to plan and as smoothly as it could.
Thank you to everyone at Brinsop for making us feel at ease and ensuring that our wedding was an amazing day.

The perfect venue for the perfect day!

Brinsop, the perfect wedding venue! We got married at Brinsop in December and I can honestly say it was everything we could have hoped for and more. We found out about the venue through Hitched and was one of only two venues that we visited but as soon as we got the house we knew it was the one. We fell in love with everything about it and it was fair to say that our guests agreed with us with many saying it was the nicest venue they’d been to. We had the wonderful Nina as our coordinator and she was brilliant! Nothing was too much trouble and we had constant communication with her in the build up which helped our stress levels no end. The same can be said for all of the staff who were brilliant throughout and allowed us to have the best day of our lives with everything running seamlessly. A special mention must be given to Amy and the catering staff who put on such an incredible menu (including the tasting session that provided some of the best food we’d ever had) and ensured that the food has been one of the main things that people have mentioned to us since the wedding! We had our ceremony in the Banqueting Hall which provided the perfect setting, especially with it being a winter wedding, as it really added to the cosy atmosphere and the lounge areas/games room were perfect for the drink’s reception. We would have loved to have also had it in the courtyard, but the temperatures meant that the lounge with the fireplace was a far more appealing option on the day. We then had the wedding breakfast and reception in the knot barn which was decorated beautifully and was the perfect place for the party in the evening. Overall we really can’t thank everyone at Brinsop enough for making our day what it was, we can honestly say that we have been made to feel part of the family and already can’t wait to hopefully come back to stay in one of the cottages for our first anniversary!

The best day of our lives

Where do I start!!
Brinop Court is the most stunning venue, it was the first venue we visited and instantly fell in love! Theres so much history to the house and we were treated like family every time we visited before the wedding and it literally felt like home the whole weekend of the wedding, my guests also agreed!!

A special thank you to Issy our coodinator who went above and beyond ti make sure everything was perfect for us. It was so easy to plan and nothing was too much to ask, even arranging our dog to be our ring bearer!! When they say Brinsop is dog friendly they really mean it!!!

What a place, what a day!! Thank you so much everyone, you all made our day perfect and it really was the best day of our lives♥️

The most stunning wedding venue - a selection of worlds all in one area.

Brinsop Court is an incredibly special place.

It’s like the best of so many different worlds and styles that come together and allow you and your guests to go on the most magical journey.

There are several different places within so that you can actually get married, which can suit so many different styles and personalities.

We got married in the Knott Barn which is traditionally just used for the Wedding breakfast and evening/party. But it was honestly the most beautiful place to have our ceremony.

There is a gorgeous note that surrounds the Manor House. 18 rooms for guests to stay overnight as well as glamping pods. A gorgeous woodland area, and magnificent courtyard , Manor House, Barn. It really does have it all.

Olympic Wedding

We had the absolute joy of attending Brinsop for the marriage of our son to his beautiful wife this week.

The venue is incredible, so flexible, so stunning, every single guest told us what a perfect day it was. Nina and all the team at Brinsop were brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble, nothing was an issue. They were all discrete and unobtrusive, the epitome of professionalism.

I cannot recommend this venue highly enough. It is stunning to look at, so flexible for a variety of approaches or needs, and the staff were exceptional. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience, this is it.

Thank you all for everything. It will live a lifetime in the memories of everyone who attended.

Nina (manager)

Absolutely magical day from start to finish. Nina and her team were professional, responsive, discreet and went above and beyond to make Emily and Matt's day the most beautiful day ever. Nothing was a problem. The venue is absolutely stunning and we couldn't ask for any more. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Matt and Emily

Before the wedding, I advised my future daughter in law not to expect perfection because weddings are rarely perfect. How wrong I was! Their wedding was the definition of perfection thanks to this incredible venue and its wonderful staff! The venue is just glorious and the staff could not do enough for us. Because of them, the day ran seamlessly allowing us to enjoy a day filled with love and laughter. You have helped us to create the most incredible memories and I can’t thank Brinsop enough!!

Absolute perfection!!

We had our wedding day at Brinsop on 14th June 2024, and it genuinely felt like a fairytale. When we turned up to view the venue, we knew that was where we were going to get married even before we got out of the car! There is just something magical about the grounds and the house itself. We got married outside and we were even greeted with one of the resident swans and its cygnets swimming by us as we were saying our vows! Our guests said how it was like a Disney film! All of the staff really made the day for us, the wedding coordinators are phenomenal and nothing is too much trouble. I would get an email reply within a day or two, even when I was emailing with questions years before our wedding day. I could go on and on, but if you are wondering where to have your wedding, then honestly look no further, as it was the best decision we ever made!

Perfect Venue

Everything about Brinsop Court was perfect for us and our wedding. Throughout the day, I had people asking how we found the venue and saying how stunning it was. Nina (our coordinator, Amy and the rest of the staff were fantastic from when we booked the venue onwards.

We truly cannot fault the venue at all, and how accommodating they were to us and our day. If we could get married over and over again at Brinsop Court, we would because it was perfect. We can’t thank you enough, but once again, thank you! ♥️

A wedding of dreams

We got married at Brinsop on Saturday 6 July 2024 and it was everything we dreamed of and more.

Looking at other couples reviews prior to me writing this I don’t really need to say much more but I’ll give my experience regardless because it was amazing. We will forever be grateful for the Brinsop team for giving us the most perfect wedding day.

Nina was our co-ordinator and we had a real journey together! From tears to laughter Nina was there through it all, particularly when we had to change location for the ceremony and drinks reception due to the rain (I was pretty inconsolable at this point - how could I be so unlucky to have thunderstorms in July!!) and whilst she knew a call had to be made she held it off until the very last minute. I was stubborn and refusing to accept we were moving inside in July despite there being some absolutely gorgeous indoor ceremony options but I just had a picture in my head at that point of grass and flower meadows etc so indoors was not working with my vision! Nina came up with me ideas on the spot and we ended up having a half inside half outside ceremony under the pergola - it was magical and worked so well, Nina understood my vision and brought it to life - nothing was too much of an ask for her or the team. With 134 guests to organise I was changing the table plan and accommodation allocations constantly too and I never felt like o was being a pain.

The food was delicious and I couldn’t even tell you how many guests came up to us on the day and said it was the best venue and wedding they had ever been to.

If you’re looking for class and to wow your wedding guests then Brinsop will definitely deliver.

Beautiful wedding venue

We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue and staff who made the day run so smoothly. Issy really went above and beyond to make us feel at ease especially when we had to switch the location from outside. She coordinated excellently with us and our other suppliers to organise the day. The catering and bar staff were exceptional and everyone loved the food and atmosphere.
