Set within a secluded private estate near Lostwithiel, Boconnoc is one of the most romantic wedding venues in Cornwall, and couples get the whole place to themselves. Book this exclusive-use Cornwall wedding venue for one, two or three nights and you’ll have the run of a Georgian country house, sweeping parkland, ancient woodland, a deer park and a lake.
At its heart is Boconnoc House, one of the country’s finest Georgian homes. Its four ground-floor reception rooms (the Garden Room, Drawing Room, Smoking Room and Panelled Dining Room, complete with a gleaming copper bar) can host a wedding breakfast for up to 100. For larger celebrations, a marquee on the lawns takes capacity to 240, making Boconnoc a top choice for a marquee wedding in Cornwall, with views down to the lake and across the rolling Cornish countryside.
Ceremony options are just as varied. Say “I do” in the estate’s 800-year-old church for a traditional Cornish church wedding, or opt for an outdoor ceremony in the grounds. Smaller moments can be staged in characterful spots such as the fernery, a sunken Georgian bath house, the Woodland Glade or a rustic outdoor kitchen.
The celebrations can start early, too. The Stable Yard has five entertainment spaces, including a rustic bar, games room and coach house, perfect for a relaxed wedding-eve party before the big day.
Up to 54 guests can stay on site across Boconnoc House, The Stewardry and three rustic-chic cottages, making it one of the few wedding venues in Cornwall with accommodation for most of your guest list. The venue works as a blank canvas, with an in-house team to coordinate the day and a list of trusted Cornish suppliers.
