    Perfect DIY Wedding venue

    Perfect venue for your DIY Wedding. The location is stunning and well cared for. The staff have been extremely helpful throughout the whole process and we would recommend Colehayes in heartbeat. They helped make our wedding the amazing day that it was.

    Couldn't recommend highly enough

    We had our wedding here in September 2023 and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The staff are just fantastic, with great communication the whole way through the process, always striving to help and solve problems. The venue itself is stunningly beautiful but also practical enough that you can feel comfortable to do whatever you want without fear. We found it great value and offering more flexibility and freedom than other similar venues. We couldn't recommend it enough. If you're after a DIY venue this ticks all the boxes.

    Colehayes Park's reply:

    Thank you so much Will & Antonia. It was a pleasure to host your wedding and we are so happy to hear that you had such a great experience with us. We hope to see you back again and can't wait to see your lovely photos! All the best, Colehayes team

    Wonderful venue

    Colehayes is a beautiful DIY venue, where you can do as much or little as you wish. The grounds are stunning - a lake, firepit, pagoda, beautiful manor house and gardens. Within the house, there is a bar (which we stocked ourselves - no corkage!), gorgeous panelled hall, lounge, dining room and various kitchens. There are 75 beds which were very clean and well presented - including a great four poster master bedroom with a jacuzzi bath. In the basement, there is a pool table, table football, table tennis and a party room. We had the most amazing time - we were a midweek wedding so had 4 nights in the venue which made everything so enjoyable and gave plenty of time for fun and setting up with our favourite people. If you want support on the day, the "helping hands" team were amazing and kept our wedding running smoothly and offered great advice. An unforgettable experience - thank you Rebecca and team.

    Wow! Such an amazing wedding venue!

    We hosted our wedding weekend at Colehayes and had THE best weekened of our lives. Such kind and frindly staff, an amazing manor that was all ours and the best thing was we could use whichever suppliers we wanted, stock our own bar and set our own rules! You wil not regret booking Colehayes and it will forever be part of us. Nat & Dan

    Magical wedding

    Where to begin! From the first time we spoke to Rebecca and her team over two and a half years ago, to the day we left Colehayes after our dream wedding had come to a close, we have nothing but pure love for Colehayes.

    The venue its self is beyond perfect, the private lake, beautiful gardens, amazing kitchen and bar, stunning rooms and of course the rave cave, all allowed us to create a wedding that we and our guests will never forget. This is then paralleled by the freedom Colehayes give you to make the wedding as personal as you like. This is something you cannot get at any other wedding venue and the amount of our guests who commented on how relaxed they felt and how much of an amazing venue it was, is a testament to Colehayes.

    Then you have the Colehayes staff. Rebecca, Briony, Ellice, Sam and Kathy are some of the most kind hearted, patient, supportive and all round amazing people you will ever meet. They helped us at every turn, answered all our questions, guided us when we needed it and in short helped facilitate our wedding to become the majestic weekend it was. In addition, there was a small army of equally unbelievably incredible people that helped us all weekend and allowed our wedding to flow effortlessly and deliver the most amazing memories.

    So, if you are looking for a wedding venue to give you everything you need to create your own bespoke wedding down to the very last detail, in a location that will give you goose bumps as you drive down the driveway and glimpse it for the very first time, with the people to help and support you, the only place for you, is Colehayes.

    Perfect venue for a DIY wedding weekend

    If you want to make a weekend of it then Colehayes is the place for you! We loved the whole set up, the freedom of doing the wedding DIY - it was easy to find local businesses and suppliers with experience of working with/at the venue - and we didn't struggle to find things or work stuff out when we were there, partly because the venue were great at giving us all the info we needed in advance.

    We couldn't recommend Colehayes highly enough, it was just perfect for what we wanted, and we have so many great memories from across the site (swimming in the lake with the llamas watching on; ceremony and disco in the hall; pizza in the sun out the front; a picnic on the front lawn; drinks reception and BBQ on the top lawn; speeches at the pagoda... you really can make great use of the whole site). Our guests came away saying it felt like a holiday and a wedding rolled into one!

    Own personal slice of Devon for the weekend

    The most incredible venue for our wedding. Briony, Rebecca, and Elice were amazing throughout the planning process allowing my parents to visit many times. Would completely recommend as your own personal slice of Devon with pagoda and the most incredible cork tree, bonfire area, swimming lake complete with (yes of course) llamas(!?), and the rave cave a total winner so there's no curfew - we partied til 3am! Amazing that everyone could stay on-site too and enjoy the whole weekend, including a nice cottage in the gardens and airbnb on-site for family.

    Hi Kerry,

    Thanks so much for your lovely review. We are so happy to hear you had the most wonderful wedding and enjoyed everything Colehayes has to offer. We hope to see you and your family again soon. Best wishes, Colehayes team

    Beautiful, unique venue!

    I don't think any review I write for Colehayes Park will do it justice as a venue. It is PERFECT!! We were made to feel so welcome from our first conversations with the guys there. Rebecca, Ellice, Briony and Sam are all so passionate about what they do. All they cared about was ensuring we had the best wedding ever. And we did! It's such a laid back vibe at Colehayes, they encourage you to do whatever you want that's going to make your day as brilliant as it possibly can be. The fact that it's a dry hire venue meant we saved a fortune on alcohol, as Colehayes don't charge any corkage fees! It was also wonderful to be able to have so many of our friends and family stay on site. If it's available, I would highly recommend hiring Corktree Cottage as well - we used it as a groomsmen base to ensure myself and my wife didn't bump into each other on the morning of our wedding. What's more, it is such a beautiful venue. We can't wait to get our photos back because there are so many wonderful locations on site, from the lake to the cork tree, to the bridge over the waterfall, and that's not even mentioning the stunning manor house! Book Colehayes for whatever event you have planned - you won't regret it!

    Colehayes Park's reply:

    Hi Geoff, Thanks so much for your lovely glowing review. We are so happy to hear your wedding went so well and you enjoyed the grounds and house. The photos are gorgeous! We hope to see you both again. Wishing you all the best, Colehayes team

    Dream wedding suppliers! Thank you to the incredible team!

    I can't get over how good this team is. I knew I wanted to book Colehayes from the moment I talked to Rebecca about the viewing. They made wedding planning easy and were always so kind and responsive. This is the most incredible venue with the most incredible team behind it! BOOK IT!!
