About

The Setting

The Cornish Place is a 26-acre Victorian Dairy Farm located between Truro and Falmouth, down the tree-lined West Cornwall lanes.

It has 11 fields of lush pasture and wildflower meadows, many of which guests can enjoy. The play field is largely level for an impromptu kick-around, and the picnic field (complete with rugs and blankets) has views for miles. The dog-walking field is for your four-legged friends. With its endless views of open countryside, this rural location off the beaten track means true peace, fresh air, and tranquillity.

The Cornish Place is situated perfectly between the north and south coasts-only 7 miles to either-meaning it’s an easy trip with your photographer for those all-important Cornish beach photos. But with beautiful fields, a magical bluebell wood opposite, and a stunning courtyard, there is no need to leave for your entire stay.

The Vibe

Elopements and Intimate Weddings

Weddings at The Cornish Place can be just for two, with guests staying in The Barn for an elopement ceremony with witnesses provided, or up to 20 sleeping 16 onsite, with recommendations for local accommodation for a few extras.

Your Ceremony

The Woodshed, with its old beams and log piles, is a popular ceremony venue for a rustic wedding. However, in cooler months, it can be chilly, so the Piggery, with its huge picture window looking out onto the surrounding countryside, can be used for a more contemporary feel.

There are also eight licensed outdoor ceremony spaces, from the beautiful courtyard to the Barn Garden or maybe the top of the hill with stunning views across the rolling hills. Every wedding can be unique, and your wedding coordinator will hold your hand throughout to create a truly personalised celebration.

The ceremony areas are small, so they are perfect for an intimate, relaxed celebration.

Accommodation

As the accommodation is across three cottages, guests can all enjoy their own spaces with private gardens and hot tubs, all coming together in the communal areas to celebrate their special day. The three cottages are all luxurious with woodburning stoves, woodfired hot tubs, fire pits and barbecues with an unlimited supply of firewood. This is not your run-of-the-mill self-catering accommodation, as the cottages come with state-of-the-art appliances, rainfall showers and the most comfortable beds in the world. Dogs are very welcome to be part of your celebrations.

Weddings here are relaxed affairs – having your guests stay onsite in the cottages reduces stress levels and means everyone can help make the whole stay memorable. The owners live onsite and can help curate your entire stay with suggestions for day trips and help sourcing local produce for barbecues and pizza nights. What makes it unique is that guests can self-cater as much or as little as they like – there are as few rules as possible, and you can make your wedding unique with the help of an experienced wedding coordinator.

The Paddock bar and outdoor kitchen are available for guests-stocked with Cornish tipples-or for staffed dry hire on your wedding day.

Sustainability

The Cornish Place is situated in a very peaceful spot, so although they enjoy a party, celebrations here aren’t wild affairs, and outdoor noise must stop by midnight. The emphasis here is sustainable tourism, so the owners will help you do everything possible to minimise the environmental impact of your big day – you will be given a tree to plant here as a memory of your day, which you can continue to visit for years to come! All the cottages are heated with air-source heat pumps and renewable energy, and water comes UV-treated from our borehole with no nasty chemicals.

Testimonials

Where to begin? I think I will start off by saying that if you are even thinking of having a smaller, intimate wedding here at The Cornish Place, just do it! I am so glad that we did, as it was the most magical experience of our lives.

Andi and Adam are the most attentive hosts who know exactly what they can do to make your day special. Everything ran seamlessly on the day and I didn’t even notice they were there the majority of the time. Working tirelessly in the background to get everything in place just at the right time. I cannot thank them enough! They really made us feel like nothing else mattered the entire stay and you could tell that they both really care just as much as you do. I planned my wedding here in just 3 months, and although I do pride myself on being a very organised person, Andi and Adams’s relationships with their recommended suppliers really were the reason why everything went so swimmingly. I can hand on heart say that every single supplier they recommend was perfect for us, all on time, knew exactly what and where the items needed to go without me having to be involved on the day and met of brief to the word. The different spaces that you use on the wedding day are also so unique and perfect for the occasion. The Woodshed is the perfect place to get married with intimate and relaxed vibes. The Piggery is also so intimate, with a stunning feature window, and the new bar was perfect toward the end of the night, which we used as dry hire. All our guests appreciated the space to have a dance and celebrate there!

The cottages and venue itself are so dreamy and everything I hoped it would be and more! When we arrived we were both blown away with the beauty of the place, the courtyard is stunning and has so many spots for people to congregate and enjoy the space. The cottages are spotless, well-designed and, again, stunning! The windows in all the cottages frame the countryside perfectly, as someone who loves a good view I really appreciated this! The beds and pillows are super comfy, everything in the cottages feels expensive, and no costs were cut to give the guests the best experience possible. All the finer details really make your experience what it is, from the Cornish hampers you receive with the most incredible local delights to making sure your hot tub is just the right temperature when you arrive.

All I have to say is thank you, thank you! The Cornish Place will always have a piece of our hearts, and we will be coming back time and time again to relive the most perfect day that you both made possible.

Andi and Adam are so person-centred. They just understand the assignment you’re after when you book, and everything you could manifest is there, thanks to them and their ever-listening ears and knowledge of the surrounding areas.

They provide so many little moments in your stay that you will hold dear to the precious memories you make together within your time at this dream like place. We got to plant a tree together that has a personalised tag, we were gifted fizz we enjoyed in our wood burning hot tub. We had a hamper which included cheese which tasted so good my husband took a photo of it (to put this in perspective my husband took approximately 5 photos in our entire stay, in which we got married).

They are just lovely people who clearly want to celebrate, encourage and be part of people coming together and enjoying life in a beautiful place. Personally, I can’t think of a more valid and beautiful reason for Andi and Adam creating the Cornish place, and we not only rate them as human beings, we also want to rate them on the internet. They deserve every star the internet throws at them to prove the Cornish place is the one.

Mim & Adam

We were lucky enough to hold our wedding at The Cornish Place this month, and it was nothing short of perfect.

I remember the exact moment I found The Cornish Place whilst looking for our wedding venue online and I couldn’t quite believe it. I had begun to think I wanted something that didn’t exist. A high-end but relaxed venue where we could take our kids and very close family and spend time getting married, but also a place to make memories and have a break away from it all. Somewhere that really focused on intimate weddings rather than it being an ‘add on ‘ to the big weddings. The Cornish place had it all.

Andi’s engagement from the moment I first called to the morning we hugged goodbye as we left after our wonderful stay was just the right amount of ‘everything’. Knowledge, suggestions, a spot on supplier list focused on smaller weddings, lots of flexibility and an approach that made me feel like it was all about us .

What Andi and Adam have created is very special. High-quality, thoughtfully designed accommodation with so many lovely little touches to make your stay extra special. A laid-back vibe in a simply stunning location, views everywhere you turn. Lots of wonderful spaces to meet as a group, eat, chat and just be together.

The magic ingredient to The Cornish place is Andi and Adam. Always there when you needed them but never intrusive. They made you feel utterly welcome and are just really lovely people that care so much about what they do you can’t help but fall in love with The Cornish Place too (not that we needed persuading!).

If you are lucky enough to find The Cornish Place like we were, having a wedding or holiday there will honestly be the best thing you do.
