- NNick14/04/2023We got married at Coverwood LakesWe got married at Coverwood LakesWe got married at Coverwood Lakes. Having only got engaged in October 2018 we knew that we had to secure a venue quickly. Coverwood Lakes was the first and only venue that we visited because we knew immediately that this was the place we wanted to host our wedding. Tim and his team at Coverwood Lakes were responsive to all of our requests from day one, and were always on hand to answer any of our questions and reassure us that everything was under control. We are relaxed and laid back people and Tim is the same, but he still provides an impeccable service.. Our wedding day was spectacular and we would not change a single element. The grounds at Coverwood Lakes are stunning and every single one of our guests commented about how amazing the venue was. Drinks and canopes on arrival take place at the smaller of the two lakes which is simply an idyllic setting. We opted for a Tipi wedding, and the Tipis are erected in the main field beside another small lake. Coverwood is a working farm which gives this venue an authenticity that you simply do not get from a hotel venue. Tim was on hand to assist us throughout the process, and on the day itself, when he was always available to ensure that we had everything we needed. I could not recommend this venue highly enough and if you book your wedding here, you are sure to have a day that you will never forget.We got married at Coverwood Lakes.
