We offer a celebrant service and would be delighted to help bring your wedding together, from working with you to write your vows to creating your unique ceremony. Contact us for further information and to arrange a consultation.

Our list represents the catering companies who have had the very best feedback from our couples, but of course we are happy to welcome others. Talk to us before you book, we know most of them and can help you find the one that works best for you. All caterers at The Courtyard Venue must make contact with us before your an event to furnish us with key information.

Tipples usually run the bar at The Courtyard. They have a range of packages to suit all budgets and can’t be beaten on quality, value or service. Further information on our partners’ page or https://www.tipplesbar.co.uk

If you would like to use another bar provider, let us know and we will arrange a visit with them.

Our license is until midnight, with last orders at 11.40pm. Music must not be played after midnight as per the terms of our license. All guests, caterers, musicians, DJs and other suppliers must be off site by 12.30am when the buildings and gates are locked.

We have accommodation for the Bride and Groom available in our fully restored gatehouse. For your guests, there are links on our partners’ page to wonderful self-catering accommodation nearby, suitable for families and groups. For those who’d prefer a hotel, the nearest would be https://www.wynnstayhotel.com where many of our guests choose to stay.

Absolutely, this is a list of some of our local providers.

It’s important to ensure your guests have transport arranged in good time, we are in a rural area with no 4G so last-minute booking, Uber and other apps won’t work once they’ve arrived!
