About

Cotswold Weddings at Norton Grounds
A private Cotswolds family run estate for wedding weekends
Norton Grounds is an exclusive-use wedding venue created for couples who want time, space, and freedom to celebrate properly.
Rather than compressing everything into a single day, weddings here unfold over a relaxed weekend — allowing you and your guests to arrive, settle in, celebrate fully, and enjoy the countryside together.
Set within 120 acres farm near Chipping Campden, the estate offers privacy, flexible spaces, and on-site accommodation, so your wedding feels personal, unrushed, and entirely your own.

We also have professional and experienced event management / wedding coordinators with decades of experience to help you throughout the planning process and on the day itself.


Exclusive Use, Always
When you book Norton Grounds, there are no shared spaces, no other events, and no interruptions. From the moment you arrive until the last guests leave, buildings and accommodation are reserved exclusively for you and your guests.
This level of privacy allows couples to plan freely — whether that means relaxed welcome drinks, a late-night celebration, or a slow farewell the following day.
Your Wedding Weekend
A celebration that unfolds naturally
Most weddings at Norton Grounds take place across two or three days, giving couples the chance to create a truly immersive experience.
Thursday/ Friday
Guests arrive, set up the barn ,settle into accommodation, wedding rehearsal and enjoy an informal evening together — often with a relaxed dinner or drinks on the grounds or in the Tipi .
Saturday
The wedding day itself, with space for your ceremony, reception and evening celebration to flow seamlessly across the grounds.
Sunday
A calm, unhurried morning — brunch, walks through the countryside, and time to say goodbye without rushing.
This structure removes pressure from the day itself and allows you to spend meaningful time with the people who matter most.
Ceremony & Celebration Spaces
Flexible spaces both indoor and outdoor , shaped around your plans
Norton Grounds offers a collection of simple, characterful spaces that can be styled to suit your vision rather than a fixed format.
Couples can choose from:
Indoor barn spaces for ceremonies or dining
Outdoor locations across the grounds
A marquee set within the estate for larger celebrations
A combination of spaces that evolve throughout the day
The flexibility of the estate allows celebrations to be tailored to the season, guest numbers and atmosphere you want to create — from intimate gatherings to larger wedding weekends.
Accommodation on Site
Stay together, all weekend
One of the defining features of a Norton Grounds wedding is the ability for guests to stay on site.
Accommodation is spread across the estate in converted barns sleeping 20, allowing close family and friends to remain together throughout the weekend. This creates a relaxed, house-party feel and removes the need for transport, taxis or early departures.
Guests wake up on the estate, enjoy the surroundings, and are fully present for the entire celebration.
Food, Drink & Suppliers
Freedom to choose what suits you
Norton Grounds allows couples the flexibility to work with trusted, experienced suppliers who suit their style and priorities.
From catering and drinks to styling and entertainment, couples are free to shape their wedding in a way that feels authentic — whether that’s formal dining, relaxed feasting, or something entirely different.
Our team is happy to share guidance and recommendations where helpful.
Location & Setting
Secluded, yet easy to reach
Located near Chipping Campden, Norton Grounds Farm sits in the heart of the Cotswolds while remaining discreet and private.
The estate offers the rare balance of countryside seclusion with practical accessibility, making it easy for guests to arrive while feeling completely removed from everyday life once they’re here.
Is Norton Grounds Right for You?
Norton Grounds is best suited to couples who:
Want an exclusive-use wedding venue
Are planning a wedding weekend, not a one-day event
Value flexibility over rigid packages
Want guests to stay on site
Prefer a relaxed, countryside setting with rustic character
If you’re looking for a highly structured, single-day venue, Norton Grounds may not be the right fit — and that’s intentional.
Viewings & Next Steps
Experience in person is the best way to understand how Norton Grounds works .
Viewings are available by appointment, and our team will happily talk through availability, pricing guidance, accommodation, and how the estate can be used across your wedding weekend.

PERFECT wedding venue

My husband and I got married here on 06/07/2024 and we are still not over our most amazing day. This is the PERFECT wedding venue.
Ourselves, family and friends were blown away by this stunning venue. The barns, accommodation and gardens are impeccable.
The wedding package is exclusive weekend hire from the Thursday on your wedding date. This means for 4 whole days, the venue is all yours to get prepped and ready for your special day. For me, having all my wedding party stay the night before my wedding was something I really aimed for, and this came true thanks to NG.
All our guests who stayed in the cottages all complimented the accommodation, it was all spotless clean and the welcome baskets full with eggs, bread, milk & other essentials were a super nice touch!
We booked Norton Grounds back in 2022 and since then they are continuing to work on the grounds itself - the new Tipi is absolutely stunning!!
Anna from Golden Pineapple Hospitality is honestly the BEST. Nothing was ever too much for her and she is INSANE at her job. From start to finish she was there, at the end of an email or phone call ready to help. The day ran so smoothly all thanks to her. All our guests mentioned what a massive help she was and I can honestly not fault her.
Without any doubt whatsoever, my husband and I would 10000% recommend Norton Grounds, we will forever cherish the memories and wonderful experience we had here for our most perfect & dreamy wedding day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
