Hartland Abbey as a Wedding Venue

Reviews and Recommendations from some of our recent weddings

Hartland Abbey, with its dignified rooms steeped in history and its beautiful gardens and grounds leading to a remote Atlantic cove, is licensed for weddings and civil ceremonies. In its magical setting, this North Devon venue provides a romantic and beautiful setting for your very special day.

My partner and I fell in love with Hartland Peninsula and as we walked along the cliffs, we decided to get married at the romantic Gazebo overlooking the sea.  My husband I were so happy to have such a memorable wedding ceremony in a stunning location and very grateful for all your help.

November 2016.  Mr. and Mrs. C. Stone, Devon.

“Such a stunning venue, better than our wildest imaginings, really couldn’t have wished for anything more. It is simply a magical place. We just couldn’t think of anywhere more beautiful to get married”. 

“The wedding was fantastic, and we couldn’t have chosen a better ceremony site than the Abbey walled garden. The preparatory work, advice and admin from the Abbey side was efficient and really helpful – thanks to you (Sue) and Lady Stucley for all your help and flexibility for our many requests! The marquee at the Hartland Quay pub site offered guests jaw dropping views at sunset, and allowed guests to walk back to their rooms at the end of the night. Blackpool Mill cottage was also a great Sunday chilling option, and gave me and Tamsin a fantastic honeymoon, foraging for mussels for dinner, and lounging in the garden in the sun. Fantastic!”

“We had a wonderful time at the Abbey, and our guests thought it was beautiful.
It was a perfect start to a perfect weekend!“

Mrs. and Mrs. R. Latham, Oxfordshire.

We all had a wonderful time; all our guest said the gardens were beautiful so please pass on our compliments to all who tend to them so marvellously. As for me and William, we were thrilled, everything was perfect and just what we had hoped for.”
