Weddings at The Barn at Cott Farm include:
Exclusive use of The Barn
You’ll have the privacy of exclusive use of the venue on your wedding day, plus access the whole day before to set up, and the day after to collect your belongings.
Wedding breakfast for up to 150 guests
Your wedding breakfast will be cooked in our on-site professional kitchen and served by our experienced team. The Barn can seat up to 150 guests in the daytime.
Evening food for up to 300 guests
In the evening, your guests can enjoy a selection of tempting evening food options, including pizzas freshly baked in the wood-fired oven.
Handmade tables & wooden chairs for up to 150 guests
Our rectangle wooden plank top tables each seat ten people. These are complementated by vintage wooden chairs.
Lighting, neutral decor, coir carpet, cake table & props
Fairy lights, lanterns, neutral bunting and a foliage hoop adorn the inside, with atmospheric lighting outside. There’s also a seasonal foliage garland across a lace and waterfall light backdrop behind the top table and range of props to choose from, plus you’re welcome to add your own decorations. A cake table, optional log cake stand and cake knife are also provided.
Pretty informal gardens with country views
Our countryside setting provides the perfect backdrop for photos. There’s outside seating under sail canopies, outdoor kitchen, the lawn and a fire pit with logs.
There’s also plenty of car parking, and guests are able to leave cars overnight.
Licensed bar
Our staffed bar is licensed until midnight, and we sell a wide range of local and popular drinks at local pub prices.
You have the option to provide your guests with daytime drinks with no corkage charge, or we can provide these for you for a sensible price.
Wedding coordinator, staff and equipment hire
Our experienced team will be on hand throughout the day. We take care of hiring all the plates, glasses, cutlery and other equipment required for your chosen menu, and we even lay the tables for your meal.
Luxury loos
Our facilities are hired exclusively for your event. These are accessed via steps, but disabled-access toilets can be hired on request.
Freedom to choose your own entertainment, photographer and florist
We don’t restrict which band or disco you choose for your wedding, but have plenty of recommendations if you need help (this photo shows The IOUs). We are licensed to host music until midnight. We also don’t restrict who you use for your photography/flowers/cake but, again, are happy to help.
Licensed for civil ceremonies
In addition to everything included above, we offer the option to host your wedding ceremony at Cott Farm. We are licensed for civil ceremonies both outdoors and inside. If you’d like to have your ceremony and reception in one place (so no need to worry about guests having to drive around after the ceremony!), you can choose to say your vows outdoors on our pergola with country views, or within the comfort of The Barn.
Wedding glamping
We also offer the option of ‘glamping’ on your wedding night. Our wedding venue campsite is available for your exclusive hire for the night of your wedding. Five luxury furnished bell tents are included in our glamping option, and there’s plenty of space for your guests to pitch their own tents. If you and your guests would like to stay overnight, you can enjoy a full English breakfast the following morning.
