Country Wedding Venues in Devon

We had our wedding at Huntsham Court in April 2025 and had the best weekend of our lives! We could not recommend this venue more. We were initially interested in Huntsham due to its flexibility and the fact that it could be hired for an entire weekend -- we had many guests coming from the US so wanted to have a venue that offered a longer wedding celebration. It was love at first sight. We absolutely loved the look of the venue, both inside and out. There was no need to decorate the house, as it is already the perfect mix of cosy and fancy. The fact that nearly all of our guests could stay within the house was a MASSIVE bonus. We loved having all of our loved ones under one roof. We relished being able to get creative and to choose all of our vendors. This allowed us to make our wedding truly our own. We had pizza, ice cream, and a pub quiz on the Friday night. We even had baby lambs to pet! On Saturday we got married in the dovecote after having a bagel bar and our guests played croquet and boogied into the early hours. It was perfect. The Huntsham Court staff members are wonderful, too. We worked with Jennifer over the course of our wedding planning and during the weekend itself. She was super communicative and made us feel really calm. She handled many moving parts with great ease and she recommended so many great vendors and ideas over the course of the planning process. The staff we worked with during the weekend were all so helpful, generous, and kind. We could not have asked for a better bunch of people. Our time at Huntsham was unforgettable and a dream come true. Thank you to Huntsham Court for the best wedding ever!

Seriously, we have been to loads of weddings over the years and we both agree that the wedding breakfast was singularly the best ever. Food was timely, hot, served without fuss and everyone got what they had picked. Customer service was faultless - just the right mix of care and attentiveness, but entirely unobtrusive. Also, the waiting staff were so good at their jobs that they brought a sense of calm efficiency. Nothing was too much trouble. The eating experience was faultless. Ample portions, of absolutely perfectly cooked food. The venue was spotlessly clean and warm. The loos were immaculate. CEO at Holne Park House, you have a great business there, well done for all you do and in every sense, your staff did you proud, so please do pass that on to them. They earn every penny you pay them! Thank you for making this a really wonderful experience for us all.

Our wedding day at Tawstock Court was perfect. The view you get as you turn into the estate is stunning and the grounds are beautiful. Laura was kind enough to show us around and we loved the venue immediately. There are a few different spaces to get married (including outside) and the rooms are fantastic for hosting. Whilst the venue has a few different rooms for use during the day, everyone didn’t feel too spread out which was perfect. Laura was happy to show us around again only a few weeks after our initial viewing with our family and they loved it. We also attended a North Devon Network Wedding Fair there which was great to see the venue set up and meet potential suppliers. Everything on the day ran so smoothly and that is down to Laura and her team. They are so friendly, and happy to help and advise. They were really accommodating to us, our guests and their needs. We made use of the venue for the whole weekend, and had guests staying throughout. All of the rooms are lovely and great value for money. We also made use of their delicious pizza oven the night before the wedding which went down a treat! I cannot say enough positive things about the venue and would highly recommend it. A beautiful country estate on private grounds, with ample accommodation, beautiful rooms and stunning scenery. The bridal suite was really big with plenty of room for myself, bridesmaids and mothers of the bride and groom to get ready in the morning. The inside and out are perfect for weddings and events. Thank you Laura and the team at Tawstock for making our day so special.

The first viewing with Rebecca back in July 2023 was fab. We instantly felt it was relaxed and we wouldn't be micromanaged on our day. For the majority of questions, the answer was yes which was just great. We felt we could completely relax over the weekend and all our guests then treated the house as a big Air B and B and got stuck in with setting up, tidying up and helping themselves to food. The booking process was easy because we could look on the website for the available dates and the transparency of cost (so many other venues have additional, hidden costs) made it so easy to think about our budget and how it would fit in. We also really wanted somewhere where the majority of our guests could stay on site and it not be a huge additional chunk of money and we wanted a get together on Sunday- again without additional fees. Colehayes just ticked every single one of our boxes The information being sent through was brilliant because we weren't bombarded with it all in one email. It was all in manageable chunks and it was clear what information was needed from us and when. It was lovely to touch base throughout the process to give us the opportunity to ask questions and not feel we were hassling you. The house and grounds...just absolutely stunning. It was lovely to see the gardens in bloom- seeing the wisteria from our room was beautiful. The path to the lake was beautiful where we went to do our first look. Nick got a great photo of us surrounded by the wild garlic. Our family loved reading about the history of the house in the file upstairs and it's lovely how you've kept the old features of the house. Everything was lovely. The rooms were lovely and bright, the bathrooms were great and everyone said how they didn't need to wait at all for showers and didn't care that they were shared. Mum also said the cottage was beautiful and we would definitely stay there again as a family! The whole weekend just felt smooth and relaxed which was exactly what we were hoping for.

If you're think of having your wedding here... do it! It was amazing, could not fault the service and the food was amazing and Grace, our coordinator was perfect

Nicky and Simon (the venue owners) were such a delight to deal with. The main reason we booked this venue was because of them, it was just a bonus their home is surrounded by beautiful gardens which we made full use of; having an outdoor wedding. They were both more than happy to help and guide us during the planning process and from this we booked a few of their recommended suppliers, that were great. The Gallery and barn which were also included in the price along with the gardens are charming, and were the perfect place to host our evening entertainment. The next day we made use of their amazing grounds again for a game of rounder's and a picnic. While our guests played off their hangovers, Nicky and Simon kindly helped us clear away. Even their lovely daughter helped out by taking our recycling to the recycling bank, which we didn't expect her to do but were very grateful for. We couldn't thank them enough, we had a wonderful wedding in enchanting surroundings! We would highly recommend and will remember their magical venue fondly!

When looking for a venue, we knew straight away that we wanted to get married at Furzeleigh Mill and didn’t even look anywhere else. In fact we were the first couple to get married here and trust me, everything was perfect, we were in capable hands and nothing went wrong. We had stayed at the venue previously and could not fault them - the food, the service, the rooms, the decor - everything was just perfect for our bijou wedding. Although the venue is small with 10 rooms, you have exclusive use, which suited us. The staff treat you like family, they are very welcoming and responsive and nothing is too much. We were married on #twosday in February so didn’t make use of the outdoor space, however I don’t doubt it will make for a lovely wedding with the moors as a backdrop. We are not local to Devon and visit/stay or eat at the venue whenever we can. Note: price is excluding rooms. Venue and food only.
