    Magical wedding

    From the decor, space, and staff members, there is nowhere like huntsham. It was home from home but also formal and beautifully unique. The staff have been a dream in every single way. Laura our planner went above and beyond for us. The house has a magical feeling to it that I can’t explain, think when you were a child and you wake up excited, that kind of magic. I recommend Hunrsham and Laura to anyone who wants the best wedding ever, there is absolutely nothing I’d change apart from to do it again. I didn’t want to leave.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Dear Jordaine,

    Congratulations on your recent wedding!

    We are so pleased to hear that your stay was a magical time.
    The early photos you have kindly shared are a joy to see. Your dress looks incredible! We can't wait to see the official photos from the big day.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave a review about your wedding weekend at Huntsham Court and we feel the same, we don't want the celebrations to come to an end either!

    We wish you every happiness as a newlywed couple and we hope you have a fabulous honeymoon on the horizon!

    Best wishes from all the HC team.

    Magical venue with incredible staff

    We had our wedding on New Year’s Eve at Huntsham Court. For context, we had 121 guests, had our church ceremony on the Huntsham land, and stayed for 2 nights - we had 40 guests staying at the venue with us on the first night and c.80 staying for the second (the remaining guests stayed in nearby hotels). We cannot sufficiently explain how wonderful this venue and its staff are but we will try!

    Huntsham Court seems to be able to offer you with both a blank canvas if you choose to decorate the venue to your own taste and also sufficient character if you choose to leave the venue as is. It’s the perfect venue for dry hire - the local area boasts a huge selection of suppliers - all with their own experience of working at the venue to be able to guide you through your planning experience.

    As for planning, the venue has a ridiculously good set of wedding coordinators and staff members. We used Jennifer as our coordinator/planner and we have been unbelievably impressed with her work - we had a rather far-fetched set of ideas and Jennifer and the Huntsham staff executed them impeccably. The Huntsham staff think of everything down to the amount of tea bags you might want to buy to keep everyone happy. They are also incredibly well connected with suppliers. It’s hard to understand how the venue can be as amazing as it is, with a staff as professional and wonderful all for such good value.

    The venue works for both smaller groups (the venue was perfectly sized for the 40 guests we had to stay the night before) and also transforms to work incredibly well for larger groups (121 total for the wedding day). It is quite frankly magical - a beautiful house on a beautiful piece of land. We have visited both in the summer and then in the winter for our wedding and it is beautifully arranged for weddings across all seasons. If you want to dance and party all night - the venue can do that (the Great Hall is an amazing dancing experience - the venue has adorable LED lights that can be turned onto party mode, an in-house bar and space for an EXTRA bar if you want), if you’d rather a cosy dinner - the venue can do this too (we had a more intimate dinner the night before our wedding) and if you’d rather the venue is used for a relaxed affair with board games and guests making cups of tea it can do this too (it has multiple reception rooms without feeling too big, un-homely or overwhelming).

    We cannot recommend this venue enough. It’s great value for what it offers, it has endless ways to make your wedding unique to you and it has an amazing group of staff members who will help you make your special day truly wonderful.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Dear Jade and Christian,

    Congratulations on your recent wedding!
    What a way to celebrate the turning of a New Year!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, as well as a detailed overview of your stay.

    It's so great to hear that you felt the venue was able to flex to your needs during your stay. We love the idea of an intimate dinner ahead of a big wedding celebration. It's the perfect way to ease into celebrations.

    Your wedding day looked stunning and we can't wait to see the official photos from the talented James Frost.
    The whole event looked so stylish, with personal touches when it came to colour, theme and design.

    We really appreciate you mentioning the recommended suppliers. We know how hard it is when couples start out with their planning and working out where to turn. We have pulled together a list of trusted suppliers who we know, have worked with and who know the venue well. This hopefully takes some of the pressure off and is always a good place to start for ideas!

    Once again, we wish you every happiness together as you start your next chapter as a married couple!

    Warm wishes from all the team at HC.

    A totally amazing wedding experience from start to finish!

    My son and partner got married at Huntsham Court four weeks ago and it was out of this world! Everything from the beautiful surroundings and opulent furnishings (made even more spectacular with the Christmas tree and decorations) to the incredible attention to detail on all levels from the fabulous staff and caterers. Jennifer, Clair and co could not have done more and the feedback we have had from all the guests reflects this. I cannot recommend highly enough.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Dear Lorraine,

    Thank you so much for your kind words.
    We are so pleased to hear Lana and Lewis' wedding weekend was just as hoped for.
    It was a truly special event, one the whole team enjoyed being a part of.

    We wish you all every happiness, especially to the couple as they embark on their next steps as a married couple.

    Best wishes from all the team at HC.

    The Perfect Wedding Venue

    Huntsham Court is truly the perfect wedding venue, allowing flexibility, accommodation for all your guests and the most beautiful setting throughout the year. The option of booking the venue for 2 nights allowed us to spend extra time with our loved ones and make the event truly special. We could not thank the staff at Huntsham Court more for helping us with our winter wedding in 2023. No request was too big, and the whole day ran smoothly, including miraculous turns around of furniture! Lots of guests commented on how it was like walking into a warm, friendly home, allowing for a relaxed festive feel for the weekend. A special shout to to the most gorgeous Christmas tree provided by the venue! We would 100% recommend the venue and all those who work at Huntsham Court from start to finish, we are SO SO glad we found the venue online and that they were able to support us with out last minute winter wedding.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Dear Lana,

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, we really appreciate it.

    We second that shout out for the Christmas tree. At 16ft tall in the Great Hall, its always an absolute twinkling beauty! We loved the few photos we have seen from Rockrose photography with you pouring champagne in front of said tree.

    It's so great to hear the venues ethos of freedom and flexibility suited your event perfectly. We agree, that extra night and day makes a big difference to the celebrations and moments you are able to spend family and friends. By the time the wedding arrives, everyone is completely at home!

    Once again, we wish you every happiness together.
    Let's hope you can think of an excuse to return for another party in the future!

    Best wishes form all the HC team.

    A magical venue!

    We had the most wonderful Christmassy, winter wedding at Huntsham Court and I cannot give the venue and the staff enough praise! It was all completely fabulous and we are still overwhelmed!

    We had Natalie as our coordinator and she was absolutely wonderful and made everything run so well for us … going above and beyond for us all day! All the staff were so welcoming, accommodating and made our guests feel completely at home. We went on honeymoon straight away and now we have returned everyone is so keen to tell us how incredible the venue was and the wonderful time they had! That said, I don’t think we spoke to a single person on the day either that wasn’t blown away by the venue and the beautiful setting and we both felt so lucky to be able to have our wedding there.

    All the staff were wonderful but we must especially thank Natalie (who is a total genius and the most organised, wonderful, calming person you could ever have with you on your wedding day), Clair who showed us around initially and was always so helpful and prompt over email and Jo who seemed to do everything for us from setting up the bar, making our Friday night run magically, to being a brilliant laugh and keeping us sane! But honestly everyone was amazing!

    Thank you so much to Huntsham for such a magical wedding weekend that we will always cherish!

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Dear Lily,

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review.

    Christmas at Huntsham Court is such a magical time of year, so we are over the moon you were able to celebrate your wedding here during the festive season!

    How lovely to return from your Honeymoon to be met with such glowing feedback from all your family and guests.

    We also appreciate you mentioning the events team. They love making every event special at the venue and it sounds like their contribution made a big difference to your stay, which is music to our ears.

    Once again, a HUGE congratulations from all of us at Huntsham Court. We wish you every happiness as a married couple. Let's hope we see you at the venue again in the future.

    Best wishes from the HC team.

    A gem of a venue.

    Huntsham Court exceeded all our expectations, making our Civil Partnership weekend an absolute dream. From the outset, the venue's incredible flexibility stood out, allowing us to customize every aspect of our experience. The ability to choose from various room hire combinations ensured that we could tailor the space to perfectly suit our needs, adjusting staffing arrangements based on the number of guests and planned activities.

    Huntsham Court truly lives up to its promise of being "your house" during your stay. We booked the venue for three days, bringing in various entertainers, and every request was met with enthusiasm and a can-do attitude that sets Huntsham apart from other venues.

    The grand rooms and impeccable decor throughout the house were major highlights for us, and our guests were equally enamored with their accommodations and the stunning grounds. Huntsham Court seamlessly combines opulence with a warm, homely atmosphere, allowing you to bask in country splendor or stroll around feeling like the lord or lady of the manor.

    The regular staff at Huntsham Court are an absolute delight, dedicated to ensuring that every detail is taken care of. Their attentiveness made running the house feel effortless from a host's perspective.

    If you have the opportunity to attend an event at Huntsham Court, don't hesitate—jump at it! And if you're considering Huntsham for your own event, rest assured that you're unlikely to be disappointed. It's a gem of a venue that goes above and beyond to make your experience truly extraordinary.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Mr K Bailey (Groom)

    I highly recommend this venue, having recently stayed here, using it for our wedding. On our initial arrival we were blown away by the country charm, the venue decorated itself well with the features, paintings, woodwork and fireplaces. Given our autumn theme the colour scheme was perfect in addition to our decorations. Further to this, we needed to be prepared the event may all be indoors given the time of year the venue offered closeness of guests with the main rooms close together and cosy. The charm left our guests in oar having never seen it before. The venue offered a home comfort feel with a relaxed and friendly vibe like staying home from home. The staff were flexible and understanding in things we wanted to achieve assisting in setting up a charity bar and general lay out parking including arrival of a coach. The staff made everything seem stress free when planning got to much nothing was to small or to big to ask. On are arrival we were greeted by our wedding planner who felt more like a friend which was lovely and our multi talented chauffeur who helped us to pack away the alcohol and goodies for the main day. The day itself ran smoothly everyone was friendly and attentive. Then on Sunday everyone was welcomed to breakfast which was kept topped up and we helped to clean up where we could before checking out. I would recommend the venue especially if it meant I would have the chance to go back and enjoy it all over again! Brilliant team, perfect wedding! Thank you!!

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Thank you Mr and Mrs Bailey for such a lovely review and overview of your stay!
    You failed to mention how outstanding your decorations were, we absolutely loved your Autumnal styled tables, with what much have been nearly 200 pumpkins!
    We are so pleased you felt supported by the wonderful event staff, from start to finish.
    Likewise, if we could relive your wedding once again, we definitely would!
    Wishing you every happiness together as newlyweds, from all the team at HC

    The best wedding venue

    We had an amazing wedding at Huntsham - it is a stunning and relaxed venue in the middle of the beautiful Devon countryside. Having all our friends and family stay on site (in the huge, amazing bedrooms) made it very special and meant we could catch up with everyone at different points over the weekend. Huntsham were super flexible, allowing us to customise the whole weekend, but also provided lots of help and guidance when we needed it. All the staff were amazing and made the weekend run incredibly smoothly and our guests feel very welcome in the house.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Dear Rosie,

    We really appreciate you taking the time to write a review!

    Thank you for highlighting the venues freedom and flexibility, it's something we feel very strongly about. Being able to make your wedding truly yours is what we are all about!

    We hope you are still reminiscing about your special day. Let's hope we see you back at the venue again in the future.

    Best wishes from all the team at HC.

    Thank you Huntsham

    This is quite simply the best wedding venue! Thank you to all the lovely staff who gave Tom and I the wedding experience of our dreams.
    Huntsham Court is stunning, we had every weather possible over the weekend and it really didn’t matter. All of the rooms and the bedrooms were gorgeous and our guests were blown away. Despite being a huge grand building it felt like a home away from home for the weekend and I can’t wait to find an excuse to return.

    Huntsham Court's reply:

    Hi Elizabeth and Tom,
    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review, it means a lo to us.
    The joy of a UK wedding is never knowing what weather you will get! We are so pleased to hear you felt it didn't impact on your wedding stay. We love that the big open reception rooms keep all your guests together, in total comfort.
    It's also lovely to hear that you felt Huntsham Court become one big home to you and your guests during your stay, that is exactly what we aim for!
    Another huge congratulations from all of us at HC
