The Lost Music Hall, Devon

Best for boho-luxe brides

Nestled near Totnes in Devon, The Lost Music Hall is a bohemian country manor infused with a relaxed, almost magical atmosphere, whose grandeur is matched only by its free-spirited soul. With capacity for up to 110 guests at a licensed ceremony and overnight stays for 12, this home sets the stage for a weekend rich with possibility. Imagine guests meandering through wildflower meadows and walled gardens, the scent of orchard blossoms hanging in the air, while the grand music room, with its soaring ceilings and natural light, transforms into a stunning ceremony or reception space. As night falls, a secret basement disco invites the party to continue long after the sun sets, and there’s a shimmering swimming pool to help with any sore heads in the morning.

Florin, Wales

Best for storybook seaside ‘I Dos’

Set on Wales’s windswept Heritage Coast, Florin exudes the romance of a bygone era with its Victorian elegance and coastal views. Sleeping 14 guests across seven beautifully appointed bedrooms, this manor welcomes up to 150 guests under its marquee for lawn celebrations that manage to feel both grand and personal at the same time. Picture a weekend where your guests can arrive to fresh pizza from a wood-fired oven and soak in a hot tub before an evening spent sharing stories in a cosy library surrounded by well-loved books. There’s even a treehouse, perched among ancient branches, that invites a whimsical escape for quiet moments away from the revelry. Between the salt air and the shifting light, even the smallest ceremony feels cinematic, while larger gatherings take on the feel of a weekend house party. Ceremonies of 50 can even take place in the house, so there’s no need for a marquee.

Scarlet Hall, Cheshire

Best for grand, country-estate weddings

A fairytale estate with echoes of royal visits gone by, Scarlet Hall effortlessly marries timeless grandeur with modern amenities. The 11 bedrooms ensure a generous number of guests can stay (up to 22), and you’ll find a fully equipped events barn (with a commercial kitchen, bar and welcoming spaces) to cater seamlessly for up to 100 attendees. Meanwhile, the estate’s formal gardens and croquet lawn create the ideal setting for leisurely afternoons or champagne receptions, while the indoor heated pool, sauna, and cinema room offer indulgent spots for downtime throughout the weekend. Plus, for weddings exceeding 31 guests, a professional wedding planner supports every detail from six weeks before the day, letting couples relax and immerse themselves fully in their celebration.

The Stack, Cornwall

Best for small-but-mighty celebrations

In Poldark country, where the dramatic Cornish landscape dips into a lush valley, The Stack stands as a striking 19th-century engine house, now transformed into an intimate retreat that’s licensed for civil ceremonies with space for up to 40 guests. These take place in a romantic sunken glade amid whispering greenery and rustic wooden elements. For overnight guests, there’s accommodation for six. The interiors have graced the pages of numerous design magazines; a study in rustic-modern sophistication where raw textures meet clean lines and thoughtful details. Of course, the rugged beauty of Cornwall is also a constant presence and your guests can gather around an outdoor kitchen, firing up the pizza oven as the sun dips below rolling hills, before sinking into a sunken hot tub beneath an expansive starry sky.

Anthology Farm, Gloucestershire

Best for pastoral romance

On a 500-acre working farm in the heart of the Cotswolds, Anthology Farm balances the rugged charm of an 18th-century barn conversion with the sophistication of modern design. Two restored accommodation barns provide space for 18 guests, and celebrations can unfold indoors for up to 60 or beneath a marquee for 100. The venue is not licensed for civil ceremonies but warmly welcomes celebrant-led or church ceremonies nearby, giving couples freedom to personalise their vows. Guests can drift between the heated indoor pool, tennis courts and cosy cinema room, making it a weekend of both celebration and relaxation. The natural beauty of the surrounding farmland provides an idyllic backdrop, while the sleek interiors create an elegant, welcoming space to host loved ones across a full wedding weekend.

Gulliver’s Hall – Stroud, Gloucestershire

Best for a boutique festival-feel

Hidden deep within a 320-acre private Cotswolds estate, Gulliver’s Hall offers a secluded and enchanting wedding setting that feels like you’ve discovered a well-kept secret. Up to 21 guests can stay on-site, with ceremonies and celebrations accommodating 70 guests in its charming stone barn and outdoor spaces. Humanist or celebrant-led ceremonies take place amid wildflower meadows or within the barn itself, with a nearby church available for traditional services. The estate’s wellness amenities – a heated outdoor pool (open April to October), sauna, steam room and sunken spa bath – are second to none and create a serene counterpoint to lively festivities. As night falls, options abound, from live bands and silent discos to simple pleasures like s’mores around the firepit.
