Becky Sent on 08/10/2025Magical wedding day on a picturesque estate
We’d like to send a huge thank you to the Boconnoc team for helping us create an absolutely perfect wedding day. From the moment we got engaged on site, it was the only place we could imagine getting married. We’re very grateful to the team for all their help in enabling us to have our big day at a place so special to my family, where my Grandad worked for many years. All of the staff are wonderful, friendly and ready to go beyond for us. Some perfect examples being poor Jamie-Lee having to scour the floor with me to find broken pieces of a special cake decoration. Or Catherine staying late to help us get the house set-up and constantly reassuring me everything was under control. Or Sima remembering that we’d requested to use the red lanterns my Grandad made, when this important detail had actually gotten lost to me in amongst all the rest of the planning.
Everyone was fantastic at helping bring our ideas to life and we can’t imagine how the day could have been more perfect. The moment we met Louise we knew everything was in safe hands. She and the team worked so seamlessly with the suppliers to keep the day flowing as planned. It’s a testament to their professionalism that we didn’t have to think about anything at all, other than enjoying the moment and spending time with our guests all day.
We’ve had countless comments from guests about how beautiful a setting the estate was and loved getting to share it with them. And it was an added bonus for them to be able to spend some time exploring the estate the next day too. Being able to have people stay on site was the cherry on top as we got to see everyone at breakfast the next morning - the perfect wrap up to our celebrations. We also really appreciated the supplier list the venue provided, having used a caterer (Dish), florist (Garden Gate) and bar (Sauce) off the list and found them all to be absolute dreams to work with.
We can’t recommend Boconnoc enough and absolutely look forward to coming to stay again in the future.Boconnoc's reply:
Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful review. It was such an honour to host your wedding and to know that Boconnoc holds such special meaning for your family made it even more memorable for us too. We’re so pleased that every detail came together just as you’d hoped, and your kind words about the team mean the world to us. Wishing you both every happiness, and we can’t wait to welcome you back again soon. 🤍
With best wishes

Olivia Sent on 02/09/2025New Year's Eve Wedding Magic
The Boconnoc Estate was the perfect backdrop for our New Year's Eve wedding festivities for 85 guests. Approximately half of our guests stayed on site. We rented the estate for 3 nights and 4 days (Arrival night, Activity Day, Wedding Day, Brunch & Departure). We are American and most of our guests were American and flew into London. We hired a UK-based wedding planner who worked closely with the Boconnoc team & vendors. The Boconnoc preferred vendors are exceptional. We used Sauce & Fego.
Our wedding guests descended on the estate, and thanks to the incredible staff, felt that they were at home from the moment they arrived. Our experience would not have been what it was without the incredible team supporting us every step of the way. They helped our planning team bring our dreams to life and offered everything from a hot cup of tea, to a big hug, and even tears when we had to return home. From the start of our wedding planning process, our planner insisted that Boconnoc was "the place"-- citing the staff as a large part of the reason it should be at the top of our list for an English wedding venue. She was right.
The perfection we experienced as the bride and groom was the result of hundreds, if not thousands, of little moments carefully orchestrated by the team over our four days at Boconnoc. After the wedding, our family and friends shared vignettes of how the Boconnoc team not only went beyond for us, but also for our loved ones. We were especially thrilled at Boconnoc's ability to transform and accommodate each phase of our wedding festivities (Shown in pictures!) Starting with our arrival, the team greeted us in the salon with smiles and champagne. Despite being tired from the long journey from London, we were all buzzing with excitement, and the team reciprocated that energy, helping us feel so welcome and at ease. Then, there was our "activity day" where our guests revelled in a proper English breakfast, followed by walking tours, deer park safaris, whiskey and cigars, high tea, and general galavanting. Boconnoc was the perfect place, with plenty of room (and rooms!) to provide the quintessential English countryside experience we wanted for our guests. Then, of course, came the wedding day. A perfect day backdropped against the magical stone church and grounds. As we prepared for the day, the team visited frequently, offering breakfast in the bridal suite, bedside coffee, and more. Even in moments that didn't go as planned, the team was cool, calm, and collected, handling any trial or tribulation with grace and professionalism. On the day after, as we shared brunch and gathered our cohort back on the bus to London, we were truly sad to leave. Every guest said they were delighted by the Boconnoc team-- they were an extension of the sense of togetherness, joy, fun, and warmth that we felt being in such a beautiful place with our favorite people.
In short, if you're considering, even for a second, having your Pride and Prejudice meets Bridgerton dream wedding in the English Countryside, The Boconnoc Estate is the place.Boconnoc's reply:
Thank you so much for this truly wonderful review. We’re absolutely delighted to hear how special your New Year’s Eve celebration was and how at home you and your guests felt throughout your stay. It was such a joy to see your vision come to life over those magical few days, and we’re so touched by your kind words about the team — they’ll be overjoyed to know they helped make your experience unforgettable. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness, and we hope Boconnoc will always hold a special place in your hearts. 🤍✨
With very best wishes

Jeremy Sent on 27/08/2025A Beautiful Estate managed by even more Beautiful People!!
Bocconoc was the only wedding venue we visited, and we knew we didn’t need to look any further. The grounds are beautiful, providing everything we wanted for our wedding weekend.
However, what truly sold us on Bocconoc was the people. Catherine, Louise, Liz, and the entire team were amazing from the moment we met them, they were welcoming, helpful, and incredibly kind. They take great pride in the estate, ensuring that you can fully utilize the space in a way that suits your vision and plans. Nothing was too much trouble!
Our weekend was truly memorable and felt very personal, bringing together our roots of Australia, New Zealand and Cornwall. We’ll always be grateful to have gotten married at such a beautiful place, but even more so for the support of such wonderful people. We know we’ll be back to Bocconoc for anniversaries. It’s become a very special place for us.
Boconnoc's reply:

A perfect day
Literally perfect, we used Boconnoc for our wedding this year in July and we couldn’t recommend it enough.
Every single part of the experience was what dreams are made of, the house and grounds are absolutely stunning and kept so immaculately. Every member of the team that we had looking after us couldn’t have been any more lovely. As a Gay couple, we felt so comfortable and supported throughout 🤵🏻🤵🏼♂️🤍.
Catherine and Louise were amazing, they were so so helpful, so accommodating, and brilliant with communication. We’ll forever be grateful for all of their input in making our wedding as perfect as we imagined it to be.
We stayed in the house for a few days before our wedding with just our close family. We then had exclusive use of the house and cottages for the night before and evening of our wedding. We had so many compliments from guests about how stunning their rooms and cottages. We found being able to have so many of our friends and family stay at the venue worked out really well.
We had the most beautiful time and wish we could live it all over again. We can't thank you enough❤️.Boconnoc's reply:
Thank you both so much for your beautiful words 🤍 It was such a joy to be part of your special day and to see everything come together so perfectly. You were an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish, and it means the world to hear that you felt so supported and comfortable throughout. Wishing you both all the happiness in the world.
With very best wishes

Sarah Sent on 24/02/2024The 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!Boconnoc's reply:
Dear Sarah, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review for us, we truly appreciate your kind words.
Please do come back and visit us with your family and friends, it will be our pleasure to host you once again.
Catherine, Wedding and Events Manager at Boconnoc. -
