About
Setting

Cott Farm, located in a picturesque valley in South Somerset, offers sweeping countryside views in a private and tranquil setting. The venue is conveniently situated just five miles from Yeovil and Crewkerne, with excellent access to main roads. Outside the charming vintage barn, guests will find an inviting lawn, perfect for garden games and evening gatherings around the fire pit. A wood-fired pizza oven and a camping field are also nearby, connected by a quaint footbridge. Ample on-site parking is also available.

Ceremony

There are three beautiful wedding ceremony locations at Cott Farm, indoors and outside.

Outdoors, a wooden pergola offers you the chance to say your vows with your friends and family watching from seating on the lawn, or if you prefer, you can marry under the sail shades to the front of the barn. Both outdoor options have great views of the valley beyond the farm.

If you’d prefer an indoor ceremony or the weather is poor, your guests can enjoy the warmth and comfort of the spacious barn with its twinkling fairy light-adorned wooden beams. Since there won’t be other weddings at the venue, you can change your location right up until the morning of the big day itself.

Reception

The vintage wooden barn can accommodate 60 to 150 guests for your meal. Inside is a beautiful space with white walls, natural textures and handmade rectangle wooden plank top tables, each seating ten people. Fairy lights, lanterns, neutral bunting and a foliage hoop adorn the inside, with atmospheric lighting outside. The range of props, styling items, and gorgeous furnishings mean Cott Farm is far more than a blank canvas; instead, it offers a great background to add your finishing touches. Cott Farm also offers a full venue and tabling styling service if you need help.

In the evening, the barn transforms into a beautifully atmospheric backdrop for 80 to 250 guests. You’ll have privacy throughout your special day. You and your guests will enjoy the whole venue, bar, staff, and facilities without the intrusion of members of the public or guests from other weddings.

Accommodation

The wedding campsite, located in the adjacent field and accessed via a wooden footbridge, offers stunning views and five luxury bell tents for two, furnished with king-size beds, Egyptian cotton bedding, and romantic lighting. Additional space is provided for guests to pitch their own tents or park caravans. A full English breakfast is available for all staying guests the following morning.

Food & Drink

From barbecues and feasting menus to fine dining, Cott Farm’s menus are created, cooked and served for you in the on-site commercial kitchen using fresh, locally sourced and seasonal ingredients. Choose from one of the example menus, or write your own choice of dishes.

After your wedding breakfast, choose your favourite menu for your evening party. Evening menus, which include Cott Farm’s famous woodfired pizzas, are served informally from the outdoor kitchen.

A licensed bar is stocked with a wide range of local and popular drinks. Cash and card payments are accepted, along with table service via QR code. Opposite the bar is the snug, a comfy seating area for guests to rest their dancing feet and enjoy a drink and a chat.

Sustainability

Cott Farm operates with an eco-friendly ethos, focusing on waste reduction, efficient resource use, and supporting the local rural community. Couples are encouraged to embrace sustainability with options like natural confetti, outdoor ceremonies, and on-site recycling. Guests are asked to travel together where possible to reduce the venue’s carbon footprint.

Getting There

Cott Farm is on the Somerset-Dorset border, just off the A30 between Yeovil and Crewkerne. With its postcode and What3Words location (sugars.loaf.baths), the venue is easily accessible by car, taxi, or train from nearby Yeovil and Crewkerne stations.

What can I say about The Barn at Cott Farm. Myself and my now wife got married there last Saturday with a lot of our friends and family and what a day it was. Becca and Ollie are fantastic hosts and were unbelievable in planning our perfect day. Everything about the venue ticks the boxes, from the fantastic food to the overnight campsite, and the outside pizza oven and bar all made for such a memorable weekend there. Can’t thank them enough and also would recommend this venue to anyone I speak to. It simple is the perfect wedding venue!

Edward & Jodie

Yesterday was absolutely incredible!! The day went so smoothly (at least from our perspective!), it defeated all expectations and you guys were absolute stars! You made it just so easy for us, and we didn’t have to think about a thing yesterday – we just enjoyed!
Thank you also for all your help throughout the whole lead-up to the wedding! I know ours was one of many weddings this summer, but your attentiveness to every possible detail and wanting to make the day so “us” made us feel so special, in such great hands, and as though ours was the only wedding all year!!
I don’t know how you guys do what you do, but keep doing it because you do the most incredible job!
And as for the venue itself, in our wildest dreams, we couldn’t have imagined a more perfect place to get married!! And we genuinely mean that! An outdoor wedding in the most gorgeous setting, the stunningly decorated barn, all of it was amazing! (And it’s not just us that thought that – so many of our guests commented!)

We fell in love with this place when we first saw it and despite viewing other venues our hearts were already set. We can’t thank Becca and Ollie enough for everything they did for us and making our wedding day extraordinary. They were professional, unflappable and so accommodating to all our guests no matter how spirited and unusual their requests; they truly are a lovely couple. We always felt the day was in good hands, everything running seamlessly and quietly taken care of. The day felt truly ours, bringing everything we wanted to such a beautiful venue and to make for a really personal and special occasion. We can’t recommend Cott Farm and the team highly enough; both we and our guests were blown away by the gorgeous setting, delicious food and wonderfully relaxed atmosphere. Thank you so much for everything.

Marjory & Stu

5 weeks on from our wedding and still smiling at what was the best day ever! Thanks Becca and Oli, it was fantastic.

Ian

From start to finish Becca and Ollie could not have been more attentive and helpful. The venue is beautiful and the day ran like clockwork. I want to do it all again!

Carly & Stephen

We had the most amazing day thanks to Ollie and Becca. Every aspect was taken care that I didn’t even have to think about the venue, just what you want as a bride! The venue is simply stunning and the bell tents are so cosy. I can’t recommend and thank them enough.

Harriet & Steve

We enjoyed exceptional hospitality in beautiful surroundings at this wonderful wedding venue. We were guests, yet the owners and staff made extra effort to ensure we had a very pleasant experience. Of course the bride and groom, their families and support crew, created a memorable 2 days.
We also camped overnight and were provided with a hearty breakfast the morning after…much needed. Attention to detail was outstanding (e.g. the ladies WC had a basket of essentials) the grounds were impeccable and decor was stunning (in a rustic, unpretentious way). We just cannot fault them, thank you.

Sarah – wedding guest

Absolutely perfect. This venue is the place to be! Stunning views, peaceful countryside, genuinely gorgeous hosts. My Husband and I got married this weekend, Becca and Ollie were absolutely incredible. We couldn’t fault a single thing. From the wedding planning, to delivery on the day. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much again.

Freya & Ben

Absolutely wonderful! The venue is beautiful, the facilities excellent, but most of all Becca and Ollie have a superb and endless ability to enable everything to run perfectly. In the lead up to the wedding, they made everything easy, with clear and regular communication. They were flexible beyond words about the unusual details of the ceremony and reception. On the day, they were almost invisible but in reality were on hand throughout, ensuring everything went perfectly. And from beginning to end, they treated us and our daughter as if we were the only wedding they were thinking about. They were just kind. The food was excellent, and the service was both relaxed and meticulous. They knew without asking what every guest had ordered. It was an international wedding, and the chef was even willing to learn and create to perfection a Colombian dish.
We would recommend Cott Farm Barn to anyone. And thank you to Ollie and Becca.

Alex & Claire – parents of the bride

We got married here in the Summer of 2018. It was the perfect venue for us. The owners of Cott Farm Barn were truly amazing from start to finish. Their communication was great and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. The advice they had to offer around how we should go about planning the day was superb and helped the day come together tremendously. They are passionate about what they do and it shows. We were very lucky with the weather but felt like even if we hadn’t been, we were in good hands. We highly recommend considering Cott Farm Barn for your wedding. It scored a 10/10 for us.

Sophie & Iain

Thank you so so much for hosting the wedding of our dreams! We had the most amazing day! Thank you.

Naomi & Matt

This is a beautiful venue, and we had the most amazing day for our wedding. Becca and Ollie were so helpful in the lead up to the wedding, and were fantastic on the day. The food was fabulous, and we would highly recommend having the outdoor pizza oven. Thank you to all involved.

Becky

Our wedding at The Barn at Cott Farm was the best day of our lives. From start to finish, Becca and Ollie were the most amazing hosts that we could have asked for and nothing was ever too much trouble. All of the food was beautiful, definitely recommend the pizzas that everyone went crazy for. The venue and views were incredible and it will always leave a special mark in our lives from the first day of married life. The best place we could have ever dreamt of. Becca and Ollie, you were literally the best and we can’t thank you both enough.

Cam & Ben

Thank you once again for all of your help preparing what was a beautiful day.
Everyone had a fantastic day, and we’re so glad that we managed to get the outdoor service we’d hoped for!

FAQs
Do you offer exclusive use of the venue?

Yes. You'll have privacy throughout your special day. You and your guests will enjoy the whole venue, bar, staff and facilities without the intrusion of members of the public, or guests from other weddings.

You can make the venue your own from when you arrive on Friday morning, to when you leave around Sunday lunchtime, including the option of glamping on your wedding night in luxury bell tents situated in our private campsite.

Is there accommodation on site?

The Barn at Cott Farm has a campsite, which is available for your exclusive use for the night of your wedding. With stunning country views, the campsite is in the adjacent field and accessed via a wooden bridge. In addition to our five luxury bell tents which sleep ten people with proper king-sized beds, there's plenty of space for your guests to pitch their own tents. Cott Farm can even serve you and your guests a hearty full English breakfast the following day!

Are you licensed for legal wedding ceremonies?

Yes. Cott Farm is licensed for marriages and civil partnerships. You can choose from three beautiful ceremony locations:

Our wedding pergola offers you the chance to say your vows in the great outdoors with your friends and family watching from wooden seating on the lawn. You may also choose to get married under the sail shades to the front of the barn. Both outdoor options have great views of the valley beyond the farm. If you'd prefer an indoor ceremony, or the weather is poor, your guests can enjoy the warmth and comfort of our spacious barn, with twinkling fairy lights on the wooden beams for the perfect ambience. You'll have the privacy of the whole venue throughout your special day. They'll be no other weddings taking place anywhere at the venue, which means right up until the morning of the big day itself, you (or indeed the weather) can choose your ceremony location.

Do you charge corkage?

You have the option to supply your own table wine during your meal. We will supply glasses and staff for serving, and we don't charge a corkage fee for this, but you are required to remove your own recycling. Drinks packages are also available.

Can we set up the day before?

The Friday before (and Sunday morning after) is included for weekend weddings, so you'll have time to add your personal details at leisure. The Barn is neutrally decorated and includes furniture, fairy lights, lanterns and a range of styling props to choose from.

Is a wedding coordinator included?

Yes. Our coordinator will help you with planning your timings, and will be on hand throughout the day to keep you on track. We also take care of everything from laying tables, checking decor and setting up furniture to coordinating your timings on the day, so that you can just enjoy your best day.

What catering options do you offer?

We're passionate about food at The Barn at Cott Farm. We're lucky to be surrounded by some of the finest food and drink producers and we use fresh, locally-sourced and seasonal ingredients wherever possible. You can choose from one of our example wedding breakfast menus, or write your own choice of dishes. This will be cooked on site in our adjacent kitchen and served by our experienced team. Crockery, cutlery and tableware for your chosen menu is all taken care of for you.

After your wedding breakfast, you can choose your favourite menu for your evening party. Our evening menus, which include our famous wood fired pizzas, are served informally from our outdoor kitchen.
