Brinsop Court - An Exclusive, Destination Wedding Estate
About Brinsop
Brinsop Court is a 12th Century moated manor house and barn wedding estate, offering complete private hire of the house, grounds and Knot Barn for couples seeking a truly immersive and unforgettable celebration. Set in the Herefordshire countryside, Brinsop Court is designed for couples who value:-
- Exclusivity over room hire
- Atmosphere over simplicity
- Experience of "packages"
Every wedding at Brinsop Court is hosted as a private estate celebration with the entire venue and team dedicated solely to you and your guests.
What Makes Brinsop Court Different
Exclusive use of the entire estate - manor house, barn, courtyards and grounds.
Multiple licensed ceremony spaces indoors and outdoors.
The Knot Barn for large-scale dining and evening celebrations.
On-site accommodation and glamping village for guests.
Dedicated in-house wedding coordination team.
Signature recovery breakfast the following morning.
Brinsop Court is best suited to couples looking to host a full-scale, beautifully crated wedding, rather than a room-only hire.
Guest Numbers & Style of Wedding
We host weddings up to 180 guests, with most celebrations welcoming 60-150 guests.
While smaller weddings are possible, Brinsop Court operates as a fully private hire venue, meaning the scale, staffing and experience remain premium regardless of guest numbers.

The most perfect wedding
Wow what can I say, Brinsop is an absolutely stunning wedding venue with heaps of character and so many options of places for the ceremony and to do things. We fell in love with it as soon as we saw it and knew it was where we wanted to get married.
Right from the start, the Brinsop team were so helpful and accommodating. From giving an virtual tour then showing us around in person, Issy and the team were fantastic right the way through. Nothing was a hassle, no request too difficult and they were incredibly professional and responsive throughout the whole process.
We loved that Brinsop is an exclusive venue with accommodation on site so we could stay with the bridal party and our immediate family. All the rooms are unique and have so much character and it's fun exploring the whole place. You feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, in nature with swans, ducks and birds all around.
Throughout our planning process, Issy and the team helped us every step of the way, being incredibly flexible in managing our requests and really trying to create our vision. They even got their team to make a giant jenga that we could use on the day! They helped to create the most perfect bespoke wedding breakfast and canapes menu, and seemed so positive and excited to be part of our special day and experience.
Arriving at the venue, Issy and the team were ready and had everything prepared and ready to go. It made the process so smooth for us and meant we could really enjoy the day without any stress. Issy coordinated perfectly with all of our vendors and it really felt like she and the whole team were so happy for us and wanted to be part of our day which was amazing. Our guests commented on how friendly and responsive all the staff were and it really made the experience extra special.
I wouldn't change anything about the day and it was perfect. I would absolutely recommend Brinsop as a wedding venue and all the staff who are really invested in helping deliver your vision. Thank you so so much to the whole team for making this a day that we will look back on for many years to come with amazing memories.

Best Wedding Venue!
From booking this venue in 2023 to the big day this week, all the Brinsop staff have always been supportive, listening to our ideas and made this day special to us. This venue is really magical! I am so pleased we booked here. Izzy and all the staff have been so relaxed and calm throughout the whole event and made both us so much happier on the big day. You get so much for your money. They even filmed our big moments for us! They are so responsive. I would recommend this venue so much

The wedding venue of dreams
Where do I begin?! As soon as we visited brinsop Manor for our very first visit, we were instantly blown away by the venues beauty, staff and the warming welcome we immediately got. We had 4 more venues to view over the coming weeks and within two days, our date was booked with Brinsop and it was the best impulsive decision we’ve ever made.
From the get go, all the staff have been so responsive, helpful and will answer any question/query you have. They make you feel at ease and it really does make the process calm and enjoyable which meant the world to us whilst planning the wedding in 9 months with a small baby. The venue itself is the most beautiful place I could have ever imagined us saying ‘I do’ in and we had compliments all day from the guests who had fallen in love just like we did. Brinsop really brings a special feeling that we had every time we visited. We’re only sad that it’s now over.
Thank Brinsop for making our day so unbelievably special ❤️

Stunning venue and amazing staff
I cannot recommend Brinsop Court enough to people. They truly looked after us and made us feel so special. Once you enter it, it feels like you have walked into a different age and everything feels so tranquil and calm. There are so many locations that the ceremony could have been held and it is one of those places that is just naturally beautiful. We felt that the entire team invested in us as a couple. We also had to postpone our wedding at first and Brinsop kept our deposit for us to use for a future date, which really helped us financially. The communication throughout the process was impeccable and we were encouraged to use the manor house as our own home while we were there. You can tell the team work so hard but they make the day run so smoothly.

The most incredible place for the most incredible day
Getting married at Brinsop is truly all you could wish for. They make it easy from day one with communication, flexible payment plans, support with deciding dates, choices of use of buildings or outside, choices of menu and drink packages (or going totally bespoke!), the easy of accommodation and even a dedicated wedding planner at your disposal! The food was delicious - with a few options to choose from you can build your menu and the tasting is well worth the time! Working with Nina and the wider team at Brinsop was so easy, they would be as accommodating as they could be and respond to questions and queries quickly easing some of the stress of wedding planning! On the big day they basically run the show for you! It will all happen seamlessly and even if something is to go a little wrong - you'll likely not know until afterwards!!
The setting, the team and the magic of Brinsop shines through to make your day everything you can wish for. If you imagine it for your day, Brinsop help you bring it to life.
Our coordinator was Nina - who deserves her own special shout out for taking away every single stress and making sure that our day is everything we had ever wanted it to be. She was just amazing.

Our Christmassy Winter Wedding ❤️
Honestly we don't know where to start.... Brinsop Court is the most stunning wedding venue we have ever been to. We had the pleasure of getting married there on Friday 19th Dec and we were blown away. A wedding there anytime of year is beautiful but a Christmas time wedding is just truly magical. The Christmas trees, the flowers, the log fires were like something out of a fairytale. Not only was the venue beautiful, but the staff really out did themselves. Issy was so attentive and nothing was too much trouble throughout our whole process. The way that they were so flexible with all of our requests made us feel at ease and well looked after. The food we chose was perfect and we had so many amazing comments from our guests who were completely taken back by how amazing the day was. We have even been asked several times if we can do it all over again!!! From the bottom of our hearts thank you so much to the team at Brinsop for giving us the most perfect wedding day, it will always be a special place to us and we will forever cherish the memories made. XxxxX

Beautiful venue, amazing food, fantastic day!
We had our wedding at Brinsop on 2nd October and it was an incredible day! First off, every part of the venue is so beautiful, and we really made the most of it, having our ceremony in the woodland, drinks reception on the lawn, dinner in the Banqueting Hall and evening reception in the Knot Barn - Brinsop is so flexible in giving you many options for every part of the day. So many of our guests commented on how stunning the house and grounds are. The woodland is a real highlight if you're looking for an outdoor ceremony space, we didn't see anything like it in other venues we looked at - it feels so secluded and yet it's just steps away from the house.
Amy (the head chef) and her team were super helpful and accommodating; we requested a fully vegetarian menu and they were very happy to oblige, and all the food on the day was delicious, incuding the canapes. It was also really lovely to have the recovery breakfast the following morning to catch up with our overnight guests :)
Nina was our coordinator and she was absolutely fantastic - even though we were running slightly behind schedule on the day, she was a super calm and reassuring presence throughout, and never made us feel rushed. She even helped our guests surprise us after our meal by putting cans and a 'just married' sign on the golf buggy for our ride up to the Knot Barn! Prior to the day, she was always really quick to respond to emails and happy to chat on the phone whenever - even when she was on annual leave, she was quick to let us know that we could email and she would still get back to us while she was on holiday.
The only slight issue that we had was that it took longer than we expected to be assigned a dedicated coordinator, which meant that we didn't have our planning meeting until less than 2 months before our wedding day, and getting all our catering info sorted was more rushed than we would have liked. We did ask them a couple of times before our coordinator was assigned, so I'm not sure if this is their usual timeline or if there was some other reason for the delay. As I said, once we had Nina assigned she was great and quickly resolved all our questions etc, but the last couple of months before the day did end up being a little bit more stressful because of this.
Even having said this I would still absolutely recommend Brinsop - compared to similar venues it's great value for money, particularly considering how much character and versatility it offers. We're already looking forward to coming back to stay in Ivy or Wood Cottage (where we stayed the night before the wedding) for our anniversary, if not before!

June 6th/7th 2025 Wedding
Such an incredible time at Brinsop Court for our wedding. We had guests from multiple countries and all over the US fly in for the big day. The Brinsop team were incredible, attentive and made sure that everything was seamless so my wife and I could enjoy our weekend as much as possible.
Having the event for the whole weekend really was a difference maker as people got to settle in and explore.
The venue is stunning, it’s remote which is fine you just need to be prepared with taxis etc for anyone not staying onsite.
As with any wedding there are a lot of costs associated outside the initial fee for the rental, so just be prepared for this.
Overall, we reviewed 6 venues before choosing Brinsop and are really happy with our decision.
