About
Setting

Coton House Farm is a picturesque wedding venue nestled in the heart of rural Staffordshire, in the village of Whittington. Its idyllic setting is characterised by rolling green fields and open countryside, offering a tranquil and secluded atmosphere for wedding celebrations. The venue itself is surrounded by mature trees and well-maintained gardens, which provide stunning backdrops for photographs and a sense of natural beauty. The peaceful rural environment ensures a private and intimate experience, far removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life, allowing couples and their guests to fully immerse themselves in the joyous occasion.

Ceremony

The Old Dairy Barn is an extraordinary renovated 17th-century barn-the perfect setting for your ceremony. This beautifully repurposed farm building boasts elegant interior design, featuring captivating chandeliers and sophisticated black limestone flooring. Coton House Farm also offers the unique charm of an outdoor ceremony at our beautiful Pergola. Here, couples can exchange vows amidst stunning natural surroundings, with the added delight of picturesque views of our horses in the nearby paddocks, creating a truly memorable backdrop.

Reception

The Oak Barn is a magnificent, light-filled space, offering breathtaking views and the capacity to host up to 120 day guests and 220 evening guests. Its neutral decor, soaring ceilings, and expansive windows create a stunning and adaptable backdrop for any wedding theme, allowing you the freedom to infuse your unique personalities into every detail. This versatile barn effortlessly accommodates every stage of your wedding day, from day to evening.

Expansive covered patio spaces provide inviting areas for your guests to enjoy reception drinks and canapés, or to take a break from the dance floor. All areas are seamlessly connected and fully accessible, ensuring all your guests can enjoy the day with ease.

Accommodation

The on-site accommodation features four opulent rooms, ideal for newlyweds and their closest guests. Originally stables, these characterful spaces have been lovingly converted into spacious suites, each named after the horses who once resided here: Alfie, Chester, Dinky, and Scallywag.

Designed to provide both comfort and privacy, each individually decorated room features a luxurious king-size bed and a stylish vanity unit. You’ll find a contemporary en-suite bathroom complete with a shower, plush towels, and toiletries, along with the added comfort of underfloor heating. For your convenience, each room also includes a television and complimentary Wi-Fi. A double sofa bed in each room allows for flexible arrangements, comfortably accommodating up to two children.

Facing onto a private courtyard, each room boasts tables and chairs, offering a lovely spot to catch the early morning sun before enjoying a delicious breakfast. This exclusive accommodation is included in the Luxury Wedding Package. It is also available as an upgrade to their Twilight Wedding Package, ensuring a seamless and unforgettable experience from start to finish.

Food & Drink

At Coton House Farm, they believe your wedding day should be a feast for the senses. The in-house catering teams can create a diverse and exquisite culinary experience. For your Wedding Breakfast in the stunning Oak Barn, choose from elegant three-course meals, all prepared with high-quality, fresh, and locally sourced ingredients.

As evening approaches, keep the celebration going with a variety of relaxed and engaging options. From popular choices like wood-fired pizzas, bacon cobs, and homemade pies to more gourmet selections, such as grazing tables or vibrant street food stations.

The Twilight package offers a more relaxed dining experience. Their in-house catering teams serve fresh wood-fired pizza, hot dogs and nachos to complement the rustic setting.

The Sty Bar, situated within The Oak Barn, offers a comprehensive selection of drinks, cocktails, and wines. A complimentary drinks Package for up to 50 dining guests is included in our Luxury Venue Hire package.

Sustainability

At Coton House Farm, their dedication to sustainability is woven into every aspect of the wedding venue, reflecting their profound respect for the beautiful countryside they call home. The team is committed to minimising their environmental footprint by implementing practices such as sourcing seasonal and local produce for catering, reducing waste through recycling and composting initiatives, and using renewable energy to power operations. Their goal is to ensure that while you celebrate your special day amidst the picturesque setting, you can also feel confident that your wedding contributes to a more sustainable future, allowing both your love and the natural beauty of our surroundings to flourish for years to come.

Local Area

Whittington is a historic village and civil parish nestled in the Lichfield district of Staffordshire, England, about three miles southeast of Lichfield. It boasts a rich history and is characterised by a rural setting surrounded by green belt land and agriculture, fostering a strong sense of community. Key historical landmarks include Whittington Old Hall, a medieval manor house with Tudor origins, and St Giles Church, which dates back to the 13th century. The prominent Whittington Barracks, now the national headquarters for Defence Medical Services, also houses the Staffordshire Regiment Museum. With a population of around 2,700, the village maintains a strong community spirit.

Getting There

Coton House Farm is situated in the picturesque Staffordshire countryside, just outside Lichfield. It is well signposted from the A51, which runs between Lichfield and Tamworth. If you’re driving, you’ll find the venue at the end of Vicarage Lane. While it offers a secluded feel, it’s conveniently located only about 3 miles from Lichfield City Centre, making it accessible by a short taxi ride or a short walk if you take a bus to Whittington Village. There is ample free private parking available on-site for visitors.

Coton House have been amazing from start to finish. Our wedding coordinator, Megan, was so organised and lovely, nothing was too much trouble, and this is also true for all of the staff there. Any questions and emails were always answered quickly; there were lots of open days for couples who had booked, which was great, so they could keep visiting and getting new ideas. We booked two years before our wedding date, and every time we visite,d there had been investments to make the place even more stunning.

Absolutely magical! We got married at Coton House Farm in May, and it was everything we could have dreamed of and more. The venue is breathtaking, a true hidden gem, and the fact that it’s dog-friendly meant our golden retriever could be our ring bearer, which made our day even more special. Lydia and the team were incredible, so friendly, organised, and genuinely caring. They made sure everything ran perfectly, and nothing was too much trouble.

We had our special day at Coton House. We cannot thank everyone enough: the caterers, the staff behind the bar, organisers and especially Maggie for being our coordinator and keeping us all calm! It was a perfect day from start to finish, even though we had wind and rain, it finished with a gorgeous sunset! All of our family and friends also agreed as to how stunning the venue is! Thank you for hosting our day.

We honestly couldn’t thank you all enough! You made our day so special and one we will never forget. You made it run so smoothly, and it was completely stress-free. It will always hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you all at Coton House Farm for making our dreams come true.
