NORTON GROUNDS, CHIPPING CAMPDEN Ceremony licence? Yes Contact: 07816 203 766 https://nortongrounds.com www.instagram.com/nortongrounds This farm estate offers exclusive-use weekend weddings. The Cotswold stone Threshing Barn that has been recently renovated is set in a stunning, landscaped c ourtyard that looks romantic at night l it up with atmospheric lighting. There’s a paddock overlooking the 18 th -century f armhouse that offers the ideal spot for a marquee, yurt or a tipi hired from a s upplier of the couple’s choice. The immaculate gardens offer plenty of b eautiful locations for big-day photographs and are home to a pond, weeping willows and acres of surrounding land boasting stunning Cotswold views. Because there’s a limit to the number of weddings that take place at the venue each year, the team can plant flowers in areas around the grounds for each wedding theme. The Cow Shed is the newest addition this year offering an industrial feel. There’s also five-star on-site accommodation providing luxurious bedding, furniture and fittings for up to 24 guests included in the venue hire. Ceremonies take place in the Threshing Barn or a blessing can take place in the Cow Shed or on the lawn in front of the farmhouse. There are three options for the reception including the Threshing Barn with its high ceilings, beautiful beams and statement lighting, the Cow Shed with its exposed barn roof, hessian swagging and atmospheric lighting, or in a marquee structure. ❤ We love… that until the end of March 2021, the venue is offering a Micro Package for up to 15 guests in collaboration with caterers The Wild Oven. THE KINGSCOTE BARN, TETBURY Boasting panoramic views, The Kingscote Barn is an award-winning, privately owned barn set in the heart of a secret valley, nestled in the Cotswold hills offering plenty of opportunities for exclusive-use weddings. A private driveway leads to the lush green fields that surround the 17th-century Cotswold stone barn. Whether couples are planning a spring wedding with lambs running around in the fields, a relaxed summer celebration with al fresco drinks and games on the lawn, an autumnal affair styled with seasonal colours or a cosy winter wedding with twinkling fairylights and candles, the barn and grounds are the ideal choice. Ceremonies and receptions take place in the barn with its high ceilings and exposed wood for up to 200 loved ones (when restrictions lift.) ❤ We love… the intimate photo opportunities in the Linhay and romantic rose garden to larger group photographs on the lawn. Couples can also venture up to the farm for portrait shots seated on the hay bales.
