    The most magical weekend!

    WOW. Merriscourt you are the most wonderful venue. We cannot recommend you enough. From the incredible support and warmth of Paige and Emily during all our planning, to the professional and seamless work on our wedding day.
    Our guests had an amazing time, and have all commented on how stunning the venue was, how delicious the food was, the professionalism and friendliness of all the staff, and what a warm welcoming atmosphere you have created. We also completely agree!
    You were there every step of the way for us, and it made all the difference.
    We had the most perfect day, and cannot thank you enough for the memories you've given us, and the experience we had.
    Thank you!
    Amy & Mark

    Beatuful venue and amazing staff!

    Merriscourt is a beautiful venue with great layout for all the parts of your wedding day! The ceremony room Stone Barn is so classy and beautiful that you don't really need a lot of extra decorations to make the ceremony feel special and we got a lot of compliments from our guests on the space. If the weather permits they also have a lovely courtyard which was just perfect for drinks reception in the sun.
    The team at Merriscourt was amazing and made the wedding planning process way less stressful than it would have been otherwise. From designing the wedding timeline with us and explaining all the details (we haven't been to many weddings before ours so we were quite clueless) to amazing coordination on the day of taking care of all the details and dealing will any the issues as they come up - they practiced with my bridesmaids walking down the aisle and tremendously helped with timing on the ceremony itself; Paige also heroically bustled up my dress after my mum and friends gave up on trying to figure out all the little buttons.
    The food was also delicious and the portions were bigger than what we expected given the quality and high-end feel of the dishes. The chefs were also very happy to work with me to include my cultural food for the wedding breakfast which ended up being lovely.
    It was also amazing to have housing available at the venue which made the morning of much less stressful as a lot of our family and the bridal party were all already there. They also have a gorgeous space for getting ready for the Bride - the day felt very special from the very beginning to the end.
    I couldn't recommend this venue more. It's beautiful and very functional and the team running it are top-notch that make wedding planning a breeze

    Exceptional from start to finish!

    We knew as soon as we walked in this had to be our wedding reception venue. It’s quite frankly breathtaking. Paige and the team work like little unseen elves to make every single detail PERFECT. They go the extra mile, care so much about the couple, are so passionate and it really shows with how seamless the whole day was. From the very first meeting, as the bride, I couldn’t have been more relaxed because they were there every single step of the way, down to putting together final decor less than 12 hours before to avoid disaster! The FOOD deserves a 5 star review just of its own. Every single guest still talks about the food months down the line - we all have withdrawals! I had never been to a single wedding before ours so I really was going in blind but with Paige and the team guiding me and advising me every single step of the way, we pulled off the wedding of DREAMS. Every guest couldn’t believe the venue, the details, the level of service. Merriscourt will hold the dearest place in my heart forever and I’m so grateful to have chosen it for such a beautiful memory. I can only hope I get to attend more weddings there in future! Thank you to everyone at Merriscourt from the bottom of our hearts. Mr and Mrs Newcombe

    Why are you Hesitating?! Just BOOK IT!

    We had THE BEST day with the Team at Merriscourt! They were responsive, personal, friendly and really showed genuine care about you, your guests and your day. Paige on the day was a brilliant, calming presence and was there to meet us/help us set up the day before. She always seemed to be exactly where we needed her to be - Sometimes BEFORE we knew we needed her there! She showed genuine care and it was like she was our best friend for the time we spent with them.
    In fact, all of the Team were! Everyone was lovely, and cared. We didn't want to leave! We ended up chatting with Emily for a good 15 minutes before we left, and it felt like we were just having a Gab with a Friend!
    The day ran so smoothly or, if it didn't, we did not notice.
    The venue is stunning, that goes without saying, but the Team are fantastic. If you are hesitating about booking this for your Wedding - Don't. They will look after you brilliantly.
    My Husband (eek) is a Chef so had high standards when it came to the Food - This was the most important thing to him on the day - and the Chef was fantastic. They devised a Menu together that not only showcased their talent, but included an incredibly personal element to us .. and the Roast Potatoes were BANGING :)
    Thank you Team - You were Brilliant

    Very pretty venue

    The venue was just stunning, we had so many guests say how beautiful everything was. The onsite accommodation was so useful as well, with so many people having come in from far away. The venue was very communicative and easy to work with. Our only feedback would be that the menu taster option should be reserved and available for all couples booked within the two taster sessions so that there is the option for every couple to enjoy the event rather than missing out due to lack of space.

    Best wedding venue!

    Merriscourt was the loveliest venue, Paige, Emily and Georgia were fantastic all the way through. We would never hesitate to recommend them. The food and service was incredible. Venue setting and ease for accommodation, food, organising etc was second to none and we are so grateful to everyone who helped make our day so special. Thank you 🥰

    Unforgettable Venue, Unmatched Service

    We got married at Merriscourt in July 2025, and it was nothing short of magical. From the moment we first visited, we knew this was the place—we were completely captivated by the breathtaking Cotswold views, the beautifully restored barns, and the warm, welcoming team.

    The venue itself is a dream. Each of the three interconnecting barns has its own unique charm, and the flower-filled courtyard created the perfect setting for our guests to mingle and celebrate. The flow of the day was seamless, and the layout meant everyone was always close to the action without ever feeling crowded.

    Emily and the Merriscourt team were phenomenal. Their attention to detail, genuine excitement for our day, and calm professionalism made the entire planning process feel effortless. They were always on hand with thoughtful suggestions and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. We felt truly cared for.

    Our guests are still raving about the food, the atmosphere, and the stunning location. Merriscourt gave us the perfect canvas to create a wedding that felt deeply personal and unforgettable. We’ll forever be grateful to the team for helping us bring our vision to life.

    If you’re looking for a venue that combines rustic elegance, exceptional service, and a truly magical setting—Merriscourt is it.

    The most amazing team and venue!

    From the moment we visited Merriscourt we knew it was the venue for us. Emily was so welcoming to us and our dog (and always asked after him whenever we spoke after this!). Throughout the process, her and Paige seemed genuinely excited for us and were very supportive in helping us create all the personal touches to our day. As well as making sure everything ran smoothly they were always on hand to offer support and advice in the planning process when we wanted a second opinion on what might work best etc. Emily even helped my mum to arrange a surprise wedding present of having a live artist paint us on the day! As well as finding a beautiful, dog friendly setting, good food was also important to us and John did an incredible job on our bespoke Italian menu: we’ve had many people comment it was the best risotto they have ever had! From suggesting good accompanying canapes to seeking out Italian wine options for us, the team could not have done more to make sure everything was exactly as we wanted. Merriscourt and all the team will always have a very special place in our hearts.

    5 Star Service and Venue

    I cannot describe how incredible this venue is. The merriscourt team are responsive, they were so hands-on on the day. I had all the right music, the team helped set everything up the day before the wedding, the food was so delicious (everyone raved to me about it). Emily was running about to keep everyone organised and in place, she was fantastic. I had the most perfect day and I could not have picked a better location.
