Description

A stunning courtyard in the heart of Cornwall is being transformed into an exclusive new wedding venue. Sculptured from an outstanding set of traditional granite barns. Avalen will open its doors for both intimate and elaborate weddings. This magical set of barns has a unique charm of their own and can be exclusively yours over three days to create your most memorable wedding. Registered for civil weddings, Avalen Farm can offer you the complete package, from a bridal suite, to the wedding ceremony, bar, large dining room and kitchens. Our emphasis is on fewer weddings at a relaxed pace so you have time to enjoy and make your dreams a reality. From the minute you approach the farm, the beauty of Avalen and the surrounding countryside is breathtaking with the courtyard of interlinking barns providing a truly unique place for any couple to hold their special day. We pride ourselves on our versatility. We have thought about every aspect of your big day and designed the wedding venue accordingly. You will have exclusive use of the entire farm, made up of three large granite buildings and a bespoke Cornish barn, all linked together by beautiful courtyards, surrounded by fields. The Venue is completely accessible for all guests and designed with couples in mind. The granite buildings are where the ceremony will commence, with large windows overlooking the beautiful countryside and an orchard. As part of your ceremony, we welcome you to plant an apple tree in the orchard to mark your beautiful day at Avalen Farm. The amazing Big Barn with huge glass windows overlooking the beautiful countryside, has trestle tables and seating. As a family run business we are proud to be able to offer that personal touch, helping to craft a unique, flexible and relaxed occasion for you and your guests. What ever your ideas, what ever the size wedding, we offer the blank canvas and help to personalise your perfect day.

+5 stars
If we could give more than 5 stars, we absolutely would! My husband and I got married at Avalen on 1st June and honestly it was the most incredible place to get married. As soon as we saw the venue, it had my heart and I knew I'd marry my bestfriend here. The staff are so genuinely kind and caring, and truly support you every step of the way to ensure your day is perfect 🤍They also allow you to make the venue completely your own and accommodate your wishes! They liaise with any supplier brought

We fell in love
We fell in love with the venue the moment we walked in and the attention to detail was amazing - from the bridal suite doubling up as a dressing room for the bridal party, to the beautiful lighting in the rustic barns, everything is thought about. Ran as a family business, the care and love that’s gone into it really shows and that’s echoed in how personable and friendly the family and the rest of the team are. We can’t wait to go back and plant our apple tree! A special place that’ll always mea

Oh lovely Avalen
Avalen was the first and only venue we saw. As soon as we arrived on site we knew that nothing was going to match up and meet our needs as perfectly as they did. Not only is the venue absolutely stunning with every detail thoroughly thought through but the gorgeous family and extended team that run the show are what makes it. Their organisation, communication and everything they did behind the scenes made our day so special and stress fre

Perfection from start to finish
Everything about Avalen as a venue was literally perfect from start to finish. This is such a special family owned and run business is a real jewel in the crown of wedding venues in Cornwall. When we initially booked a viewing, contacting the team was so simple and we would get email replies within hours and not weeks like some! Nothing was too much trouble with days and timings and who we could bring and how many times we could view. We felt no pressure to commit to anything and all of our questions were answered from day one. The price was so reasonable, again, compared to other venues of this scale in Cornwall it was an incredible price. The venue itself is so beautiful, if it's a natural, rustic barn style wedding you are after but with onsite accommodation and all the mod cons then this is the one for you! The bridal suite (house!) Is absolutely stunning with loads of space for all your crew and the most stunning roman bathtub. It's also mere feet away from the ceremony room so no travel required! in the lead up and on the day, nothing was too much trouble and everything was completely seamless. We were having some issues with my entrance music because it was a song on YouTube rather than Spotify but the team sorted it and sorted the timing as if it was nothing and it went perfectly. They worked seamlessly with our hired suppliers, they have a huge professional catering kitchen on site and the grounds of the venue are huge with loading entrances and doors for equipment and decor load and unload. So much parking as well as additional accommodation you can book offsite for your guests and they run a shuttle bus for us to and from the venue so everyone could relax and enjoy. They honestly gave us the wedding of our dreams and I cant thank the team at Avalen enough or give them a good enough review! Thank you so so much!

The most incredible venue for the best day of our lives!
We cannot thank you Avalen enough for their invaluable hard work and effort on our big day. The day ran smoothly and without a hitch. Team Avalen are truly outstanding. The venue is absolutely stunning and we knew from the moment we were engaged we wanted to get married at Avalen, we never looked anywhere else! The carthouse where the bride and bridesmaids stayed the night before and got ready in the next morning was beautiful We are forever grateful for their support, hospitality and the organisation of our perfect day. I know that both of our families have spread the word across the whole of the UK about how amazing Avalen is already. Thank you making our special day so perfect.
