Your Devon and Cornwall Wedding - Page number 21 - July/August 2021 (Issue 32)

WATERSIDE WONDERS Marry in one of these coastal and riverside venues TREDUDWELL MANOR, FOWEY, CORNWALL This rural wedding venue and luxury bed and breakfast are set in beautiful parkland brimming with colourful shrubs, far-flung sea views and lush green fields. It combines charming traditions with contemporary touches and has been lovingly renovated. Accessed via a sweeping driveway, the authentic stone exterior flanks this grand country residence that offers a beautiful big-day backdrop for photos. The retreat is available for small, intimate weddings. Tredudwell Pavilion is a beautiful new addition to the venue that’s in keeping with the listed manor house. Constructed with Cornish stone, wood and a slate roof, the pavilion fuses old with new, combining the flexibility of a modern building with bi-fold doors to modulate the size of the rooms according to the number of guests, and incorporating traditional design elements, such as south-facing French windows that overlook the countryside. The granite terrace provides the perfect spot for a drinks reception in the sun, while the impressive, draped canvas ceiling and beautiful chandeliers add a feeling of grandeur. Ceremonies take place in the indoor barn, inside the manor house and outside under the temples surrounding the pond creating a natural amphitheatre for seating guests. Receptions take place in the light and airy barn with its wooden porch and exposed beams, chandeliers and French windows that open to reveal the manicured grounds. Ceremony licence?
