The Driftwood Spars

Meg and Jess were amazing as well as the rest of the team! You really helped make our day so special. We can’t thank you enough. From a very happy bride and groom!

ur wedding on the 9th April 2022 was perfect. The team and culture at Driftwood is relaxed, welcoming but thoroughly organised. For us, this was the basis of why the wedding was perfect for us, you made our day feel bespoke and not part of a factory line of other weddings. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. The garden was incredible (especially in the sunshine) and the deck chairs were a major hit among our guests and created a laid back vibe. The Crib Shack was the perfect place for guests to mingle before the ceremony started. The reception room and bar areas were the perfect blend of modern and historic, we wouldn’t change a thing about these spaces. It was also amazing to have use of the Wheel Room to prepare wedding decorations. The communication from Lilly, Tash and Poppy has been fabulous since we first visited in Summer 2020. Keith was also excellent in talking through the final details with us when we were (to say the least) a little stressed on the eve of our wedding. We were particularly impressed with how the Team arranged all the decorations we had brought with us, without asking for our input. The whole team appears to be expertly capable of handling a wedding day. Most of our guests have also commented on the fantastic standard of the food throughout our stay; particularly the hog roast on the evening of the 8th April and all three courses during the reception. Please pass our sincere compliments to the chefs. Every member of the team went above and beyond their call of duty during our stay. The entire day ran incredibly smoothly and if there were any issues behind the scenes, we certainly didn’t notice them. We’d particularly like to thank Karen for dealing with a rather nasty mess made by one of our guests. To summarise, the Driftwood team have cultured the perfect atmosphere to plan and deliver a bespoke, warm and down to earth wedding day. We cannot recommend you highly enough as a wedding venue and we genuinely think you might be undercharging for your services. If you would like us to write a public review on Google or any other online platform, please let us know and we will leave a glowing 5 star review. Thank you so much again to Lou, Keith, Tash, Poppy, Karen, Mike and absolutely everyone behind the scenes such as waiters/waitresses, bar staff and cleaners. We will definitely be returning for anniversaries and holidays in the future. Best wishes, Rob and Charlotte

Love this place. We were here two years ago on holiday. Came back yesterday 20 May 2021 to get married. We had the most wonderful day. Lou Lily and Natasha were absolutely fabulous and did everything I asked and much more. To get married in the brand new oak framed building was the icing on the cake. We are truly thankful for making our stay, our day and our guests feel so special. Driftwood Spars you rock Best wishes.

To Meg, Tash and the amazing drifty Team, Where do we start? Thank you so much for all your hard work leading up to and during our wedding day. Every step of the way you have been so approachable and accommodating, and our big day was everything we dreamed of, largely down to your guys. Everything was perfect on the day itself- ever the weather and we truly appreciate all the effort you put in to make it not only look gorgeous but run smoothly too.

Hi Meg and Tash, We've just got our wedding photos back, and thought you might like to see some of Ollie's hard work! There are some stunning ones in and around the venue. Thank you again for all your effort on our magical day :D Emma x

Hi, my wife and I stayed with you this weekend, (room 4) for the wedding you were hosting. I just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you so much for all your help and assistance. Nothing was too much trouble. Your staff are a credit to your lovely venue! We had a wonderful time. I will be recommending you to others. Kind regards Dan

We looked at a number of venues in Cornwall and what sold The Driftwood Spars for us was being able to have a fairly informal wedding in a beautiful setting. So close to the lovely Trevaunance Cove which allowed for an amazing photo shoot in the evening. Friends and family also enjoyed the setting and used it as an excuse for an extended break. The venue itself provided an amazing service and we were in regular contact with Natasha who was always to hand to help and provide advice for the day. Nothing was too much trouble for her and her team. The food was of really high quality and a hit with our guests. The venue has a great garden where we held our outdoor ceremony as well as a good size room for the wedding breakfast along with a separate bar where we set up a fun casino for the evening Overall, we had a very smooth and stress-free experience and happy to recommend

Me and my now wife had never imagined getting married in Cornwall, until we viewed The Driftwood Spars. We were so inspired by the beautiful location and incredible team that we booked as quickly as we could. We had the most amazing day 2 weeks ago, everyone that joined us on the day have not stopped commenting on how incredible the team and the food was! We were always in contact with Natasha, she was so organised in supporting us in every way possible and put us at ease with the running of the day! If you are looking to get married in Cornwall or married at all, I would strongly recommend The Driftwood Spars, Natasha and Meg had the whole day organised amazingly so we could enjoy with zero stress!

Having stayed at the ‘Drifty’ several times we happened to see a wedding taking place there one day.We always said if we ever got married this would be a great venue . . So when we decided to tie the knot it was the obvious choice - relaxed, friendly and non pretentious while providing great food and service and of course a stunning location ! From the off our wedding planner, Meghan, offered exceptional service ,was so knowledgeable and always promptly responding to our questions via email ,as we don’t live locally . On the day the weather didn’t realise it was our wedding day and it was a bit wet, but it didn’t matter as the team decorated the bistro area and set the tables beautifully . The whole event went off very smoothly and the food was really plentiful and delicious! The Drifty team were really friendly and caring to our guests. Thank you Driftwood Spars - so glad we chose you for our special day !
