Cornwell Manor in Chipping Norton OX7 6TT, open May–August.
Guests arrive down a private drive through 3,000 acres of Cotswold countryside, emerging at a Grade II-listed manor house where stone facades and manicured gardens set the stage for celebration.
The arrival itself becomes memory—a transition from ordinary roads to a world defined by rolling parkland, period architecture, and rooms designed for gathering.
Here, both ceremony and reception unfold within the estate's own grounds, allowing guests to move seamlessly between locations without leaving the property.
Incredible! As someone blessed to travel to beautiful places, Cornwell Manor has left an impression on me that I cherish and often think about, even years after my first visit. An incredible team, a stunning venue, and a dream location for any wedding. I want to revisit here as often as possible, because it's the epitome of a Cotswold country lifestyle venue and is the most romantic setting for a passionate photographer like me.
