Perfect venue, wonderful service, amazing food

We honestly could not have wished for a better venue for our wedding day. The setting is very special, in a small hamlet set high in the Cotswolds countryside, with stunning views. Our experience and anticipation of the day was made all the better by the expert support provided by their event planner, Natalie, who thought of everything, and brought to life exactly the day we wanted. We had the feasting menus which made for a really friendly atmosphere and the quality was outstanding - some guests remarked that it was the best food they had had out anywhere. To cater to such a standard, and at scale (70 guests) is really something. Having accommodation on site was a huge plus - we arrived the previous afternoon and felt like we were in a special pre-wedding world from the moment we arrived! The ceremony took place outside and being able to stay in the same place for this and the celebrations afterwards really helped everyone feel relaxed and totally 'in the zone'. The team at the Feathered Nest were lovely and did so much to make our day feel so special. We really can't recommend this place highly enough.

An Enchanted Evening

With the team at the Feathered Nest we were able to curate an elegant, bespoke wedding that exceeded our highest hopes. The location is wonderful, the venue cosy but high-end, the food was incredible and the team were superb at service.

Everything came together beautifully and from the moment our guests arrived they had cocktails Ava champagne, then after the ceremony fantastic canapés, drinks, then a three course dinner where every plate was perfect. The food was seasonal, the wine was wonderful.

The venue were also super at accommodating our ideas. From a string quartet to a folk singer for the evening entertainment they helped us to create a flow and keep the event moving.

They were also great at helping us source a florist who made the venue look wonderfully seasonal and special.

Our Perfect Autumn Cotswolds Wedding

We celebrated our wedding at The Feathered Nest this October, and choosing this venue was truly one of the best decisions we made. The entire day felt magical from start to finish. As locals, we already knew how special this place was, but experiencing it as our wedding venue exceeded every expectation.
The whole team was exceptional. They were professional, warm, and incredibly supportive throughout the planning journey and on the big day itself. Rachel, our event planner, was fantastic. Her attention to detail and calm organisation meant we were able to fully relax and trust that everything was in safe hands.
Our guests are still raving about the food. Head Chef James and his talented kitchen team created dishes that were absolutely outstanding, and the service from the waiting staff was faultless. A special mention must go to Adam, the owner, who went above and beyond for us. From bringing breakfast to my bridesmaids and me on the wedding morning, to helping guests with anything they needed, to even carrying my dress as I walked down the aisle! His kindness and attentiveness were unforgettable.
We are so grateful to everyone at The Feathered Nest for making our wedding day EVERYTHING we hoped for and more. We’ll treasure these memories forever and can’t wait for our next visit.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

I have 15 years experience within the wedding industry, and within that time have worked for some large exclusive venues as well as more intimate ones. I am a huge believer in taking away as much stress as possible for the couples I work with, so that the whole process is an enjoyable one and becomes part of the happy memories! I love guiding my couples through each stage, instilling absolute trust, and I get so much satisfaction from seeing each wedding day come together beautifully. I will be your main contact from start to finish, so you'll always feel personally looked after. Please do get in touch and we can arrange a time to meet!

Adam
Owner

I've been the proud owner of The Feathered Nest since 2019. It is a truly special place for any kind of visit, not least a wedding. It's always been important to me to offer a select number of dates each year to ensure each wedding can be completely bespoke and that our couples receive the best service possible. Natalie joined us at the beginning of 2026 to elevate our event offering, so we work closely together with our dedicated Front of House team to ensure every box is ticked. Please feel free to get in touch directly with Natalie to arrange a visit, and I hope to meet you soon too!
