Bore Place

So many of our guests were (unsurprisingly) raving about Bore Place. Such a fantastic place and amazing team. Thanks so much!

Absolutely first class from booking to completion, all backed by great communication and service.

Bore Place was perfect. We had been looking for a wedding venue for a while; as a mixed couple, we wanted our wedding to reflect both cultures. When I found Bore Place and its weekend booking option and plenty of rooms for guests, we went to see it straight away. I think the second we pulled into the drive, we knew it was the place for us. The location, the setting—it’s just stunning. We booked almost immediately!

What I loved about Bore Place was that it allowed us to create a village-like atmosphere for a few days; people arrived on Friday and were not leaving till Monday. Everyone was staying onsite, and from the off you could tell that the informal, relaxing atmosphere we had wanted was what the venue gave us. There were big open spaces for people to do as they wished and plenty of beautiful indoor spaces in the main house to gather, chat, and get to know each other.

Bore Place staff are just incredible. The staff (special shout-outs to Ana and Neil, but also the people we didn’t see or meet) are just so chilled out. Nothing was too big an ask. They made everything easy and stress-free. We just loved everything about the place, the team that runs the events, and mostly their attitude. I hope many more couples get to experience what we did. We couldn’t have asked for a better weekend, we’ll never forget it. If you come across Bore Place, just book it!

One last thing to say about Bore Place: they’re an amazing charity. The work they do with local communities and nature projects is truly inspirational, we always wanted to give our money to a good cause; we definitely found it here.

Wedding Coordinator Sue’s support from the moment we first enquired to the day after the wedding itself was incredible, and her relaxed and accommodating approach enabled us to shape the day exactly as we wanted it.

Bore Place is one of those magical places that you would be lucky to stumble upon for your wedding. What a weekend it was! And a large part of how special it was is down to the venue and staff that run Bore Place. Everyone was so impressed with the venue. The grounds are something out of a fairytale: beautiful gardens, flowers, and a spectacular pond where we had our drinks reception. There’s a gorgeous lawn where we set up lawn games and bell tents just outside the house. The house and accommodation are the perfect level of nicely done but not too overly perfect, giving a sense of character and history. As we married in a Church, we used The Hide for music performed by family members and speeches, which worked a treat. The barn was the ideal canvas for decoration; with the bar downstairs, it was all perfect.

Bore Place give you the option of four caterers – use Home Gurr’own, and you will not regret it. Sustainability is important to us and the lengths that Bore Place have gone to to reinvest in the land and the local community only makes this place even more worth it.

Ana was a dream to work with in the lead-up, and Neil, the caretaker, was above and beyond what we expected on the weekend. One of the loveliest men we have come across; polite, chatty, and nothing was a problem. When we arrived, it felt like Ana and Neil took away all the stress that had built up in the lead-up to the day. We had forgotten some signage; Ana found us some we could use. We were still to work out a PA system for the speeches, Neil ran a cord and set it up in both the barn and the Hide. We wanted to eat outside on Friday, and the caterers set up tables and laid out a feast for us.

I cannot stress how good this place is for a wedding venue. We absolutely loved every minute of being there and are already trying to work out how to stay for a family reunion or something when it’s not being used for a wedding!

Richard’s food was really amazing! Many of the guests commented on how delicious it was, and our vegetarian guests said it was the best food they’ve ever eaten at a wedding.

Oh my goodness, it was everything and more we could have ever hoped it to be. The venue truly is beautiful and wonderful. It was the best day and the best welcome we could have had to married life. It was a joy and pleasure to be married at Bore Place and for anyone who is looking for a venue should look no further.

The venue is stunning and the organisation and help provided by Sue, the wedding coordinator, and all of the other staff was brilliant. We loved every second of it and would highly recommend Bore Place to anyone.

From the first time we saw Bore Place, we fell in love with its beauty, its eco-friendly ethos, and the fact we could have people stay all weekend. We only looked at one venue as we didn’t need to see any others! The accommodation was clean and comfortable, the breakfast food left for us was brilliant and it’s just all maintained so well. The photos are stunning because of the beautiful grounds, and thank you for accommodating a wonderful meal on the Friday night. Communication with you has been excellent throughout, and we will be recommending the venue to anyone looking to get married. I’m sure we will be back to visit in one way or another, maybe a yoga retreat! Thanks again for your support to make the day so special.
