Description
Weddings at Norton Grounds
A private Cotswolds family run estate for wedding weekends
Norton Grounds is an exclusive-use wedding venue created for couples who want time, space, and freedom to celebrate properly.
Rather than compressing everything into a single day, weddings here unfold over a relaxed weekend — allowing you and your guests to arrive, settle in, celebrate fully, and enjoy the countryside together.
Set within 120 acres farm near Chipping Campden, the estate offers privacy, flexible spaces, and on-site accommodation, so your wedding feels personal, unrushed, and entirely your own.
We also have professional and experienced event management / wedding coordinators with decades of experience to help you throughout the planning process and on the day itself.
Exclusive Use, Always
When you book Norton Grounds, there are no shared spaces, no other events, and no interruptions. From the moment you arrive until the last guests leave, buildings and accommodation are reserved exclusively for you and your guests.
This allows couples to plan freely — whether that means relaxed welcome drinks, a late-night celebration, or a slow farewell the following day.
Your Wedding Weekend
A celebration that unfolds naturally
Most weddings at Norton Grounds take place across two or three days, giving couples the chance to create a truly immersive experience.
Thursday/ Friday
Guests arrive, set up the barn ,settle into accommodation, wedding rehearsal and enjoy an informal evening together — often with a relaxed dinner or drinks on the grounds or in the Tipi .
Saturday
The wedding day itself, with space for your ceremony, reception and evening celebration to flow seamlessly across the grounds.
Sunday
A calm, unhurried morning — brunch, walks through the countryside, and time to say goodbye without rushing.
This structure removes pressure from the day itself and allows you to spend meaningful time with the people who matter most.
Ceremony & Celebration Spaces
Flexible spaces both indoor and outdoor , shaped around your plans
Norton Grounds offers a collection of simple, characterful rustic spaces that can be styled to suit your vision rather than a fixed format.
Couples can choose from:
Indoor barn spaces for ceremonies or dining
Outdoor locations across the grounds
Tipi and court yard
A marquee site within the estate for larger celebrations
A combination of spaces that evolve throughout the day
The flexibility of the grounds allows celebrations to be tailored to the season, guest numbers and atmosphere you want to create — from intimate gatherings to larger wedding weekends.
Accommodation on Site
Stay together, all weekend
One of the defining features of a Norton Grounds wedding is the ability for guests to stay on site.
Accommodation is spread across the estate in converted 5 star barns sleeping 20, allowing close family and friends to remain together throughout the weekend. This creates a relaxed, house-party feel and removes the need for transport, taxis or early departures.
Guests wake up on the estate, enjoy the surroundings, and are fully present for the entire celebration.
Food, Drink & Suppliers
Freedom to choose what suits you
Norton Grounds allows couples the flexibility to work with trusted, experienced suppliers who suit their style and priorities.
From catering and drinks to styling and entertainment, couples are free to shape their wedding in a way that feels authentic — whether that’s formal dining, relaxed feasting, or something entirely different.
Our team is happy to share guidance and recommendations where helpful.
Location & Setting
