Venues

Which venues do I love? Well this is a tricky one. There are so many beautiful venues near me and all have a unique look and feel about them. Lets start with the three nearest me, in fact they are so close I offer free delivery. For example Matara in Kingscote is a tropical oasis with lots of cosy rooms, a stunning courtyard with a koi pond and a gorgeous reception room with a dome glass ceiling, not to mention endless gardens. www.matara.co.uk

Kingscote barn has stunning views with the option of marrying outside as well as inside the stone walled building with a gallery perfect for a huge floral display. www.kingscotebarn.co.uk

Owlpen manor (pictured below) also has a cosy relaxed feel about it set in a Cotswold Valley with a gorgeous eco barn conversion for a light and airy feel or a more intimate gathering in the original Cyder Barn. Owlpen can also offer outdoor ceremonies framed by their historic formal gardens of the manor house. www.owlpen.com/weddings

Other barn venues are equally stunning such as Milton End Barn, The Barn @ Berkeley, The Great Tythe Barn and Cripps Barn.

Further afield in a more formal setting there is Tortworth Court, Eastwood Park, Eastington Park (hope I never mix those two up!), Elmore Court, Berkeley Castle and Manor by the Lake.
