Description

Hosting your wedding in a fabulous country house doesn’t get much better than at Brinsop. Rules are few and far here at Brinsop – everyone knows, I like to say ‘YES!’ - because we understand each couple wants something different and we embrace those differences…and really help you achieve those special touches, offering an almost endless list of places for you to make your vows – moatside, down under the huge Cedar with the double swing, up in our London Plane woodland glade, banqueting Hall, Library, Astley Pavilion …the list goes on.. With 15 Large double bedrooms and 3 singles – not forgetting our 2 magical and idyllic cottages nearby – we can sleep 33, and up to 47with extra beds. We have function rooms that will take your breath away – truly – people have been brought to tears on seeing our candlelit Banqueting Hall ! – and each of them is so special. Your guests will be awed by this beautiful property, thoughtfully and decorated in a contemporary way with not a hint of old house crustiness! Time after time, people leave saying it was the best wedding experience they had ever had. And it’s exclusively yours for your stay…and that can be for as long as you want.. Your amazing day will go smoothly in the hands of our accomplished co-ordinators, with a senior event manager on hand - after being arranged in the preceding months with the same person who sees you through your day. We think our clients like continuity. Maybe you would like to arrive the evening before and enjoy hosting your nearest and dearest in the Queen Anne Dining Room, use the Games Room getting to know a little better some of those family members you rarely see, while the bar is open for your own convenience, or lie back and relax in front of the woodburner in our superb Parlour. Alternatively, in summer months you can get out and play croquet , badminton, cricket, football, tennis, fish in the moat or just lounge in our hot tubs while chatting to and having FUN with those you love so well

Couldn't fault anything at all!
After our initial show around in March 2023, we booked almost immediately as we completely fell in love with all of its charm. I also desperately wanted a moat, which this venue has! We got married in the medieval banquet hall which was absolutely stunning. Our drinks reception was outside, and our breakfast and evening do in the Knot Barn which was stunning. The coordinators were fantastic at sorting everything for us, especially a decoration mishap the day before which was much appreciated.

Seamless team at Brinsop
Words cannot express how wonderful my sister's wedding at Brinsop was, thanks to the seamless team! The wedding co-ordinator did a fantastic job. She catered for all our needs on the day and ensured it was stress free. Anything we asked or requested on the day, she ensured was dealt with by herself and the team, going above and beyond to ensure the perfect day. Every member of staff we came across was so friendly.

Like a Fairy Tale
I photographed a wedding at Brinsop Court back in 2021 and it was one of my favourites that year. The staff were so helpful, rooms were spacious. The outside courtyard where the ceremony was and the Bride walked down the steps like a fairytale. It was great to have drinks and canapés on the grass near the pond. The woods were super cool to have couples portraits. The field up the top of the woods looks awesome. The evening moved over to the the newest part which was super modern and clean.

Picturesque Wedding Venue
We had our wedding here in March. All the staff were amazing - our wedding coordinator Nadia was there at every turn to answer our questions and guide us through the entire day. The venue, location and food was everything we could of asked for. Sam the chef produced superb food, and was very flexible at accommodating our more difficult guests with dietary requirements. Mark and his bar team were helpful and friendly throughout. Would highly recommend this picturesque wedding venue to newlyweds.

Stunning wedding venue
We had our 2 year delayed wedding at brinsop on Thursday and I literally cannot fault the venue or the staff. It is the most stunning venue - beautiful and atmospheric without being stuffy or impersonal. It's not just the venue that makes Brinsop so special. The staff are so helpful and accommodating. I have heard so many horror stories from other brides who have had to deal with the past 2 years of covid delays. They made the whole process easy and worry free. I cannot thank them enough.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Brinsop Court & The Knot?

All of them are incredible weddings, it would be impossible to pick just one! Brinsop is such a magical place that it makes every single day here special. We love working in the surroundings of such a picturesque location, all our visitors appreciate it just the same :)

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

Gosh, this one is so hard. We have seen so many personal touches, our couples can be so thoughtful. We have had tables named after travel destinations, Harry Potter cakes, sheep as ring bearers - you name it!

Describe Brinsop Court & The Knot in 5 adjectives

Charming. Idyllic. Magical. Unforgettable. Romantic (struggled to pick just 5)!

Where’s the best photo spot at Brinsop Court & The Knot?

This is a question many would answer differently. There are so many spots that it's truly hard to pick a favorite. Maybe in front of the pear trees, looking across the moat towards the ancient stone bridge, in the woodlands, our exceptional bridge over our glistening moat. With Brinsop being Grade II listed in its own right, it can be captured with a backdrop of either the cricket pitch and the rolling hills of Hereford or the mixed era façade of our exceptionally unique house.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Brinsop Court & The Knot?

Many! But we wouldn't dare say - ask if you come for a viewing! :)

What’s your favourite canapé?

The Yorkshire pudding canapes with local Herefordshire beef and horseradish is always a winner! Some couples pick slightly different alternatives to your typical canape, such as candy floss or popcorn - good if you are running a movie theme!

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

It has to be a charcuterie and cheese board with ALL the trimmings! Local produced cheese with a selection or breads and crackers accompanied with countless chutneys and spreads for every palate. The bonus is how beautifully it can be presented! Or a hamper full of cookies and hot chocolate - yes please!

What is Brinsop Court & The Knot most unique feature?

The venues hosts so many! A popular one is our beautiful Courtyard, complete with medieval steps - the perfect location for a sheltered outdoor ceremony or drinks reception!

What part of your business are you most proud of?

There is no one single part of my business that I am most proud of … Brinsop as you see it today is an absolute mix of fascination with the old place, joy to see the life being breathed into it and masses of plain hard slog which has resulted in this amazing place… So - I am proud of the market stall I started at weekends - while teaching during the week - which led to the 2 shops we opened - while I had 4 children - which then led onto the Mail order business we got lucky with - which led to me being able to buy Brinsop Court. I am proud of my husband and 4 fabulous daughters - who have seen so little of me for the last 12 years while I toiled at Brinsop. I am so proud of creating this incredibly special haven of English peace that people really love. I am proud of my staff – old and new – who give their very best every time to each visiting couple and group who come here. I feel incredibly proud when I realise that people I have never met before now recognise the name Brinsop…
