Weddings at the Hartnoll
We do not work to a template. Claire Lofts, our wedding coordinator, plans your day with you from the first email, and our restaurant kitchen cooks it.
Up to 100 guests for the ceremony, 4 places to say your vows, 26 bedrooms in the house, and live music until midnight.
No. 01 How we do it
Claire Lofts, our wedding coordinator, looks after you from your first look round to the day itself, and she is there on the day to keep it running to plan.
Your wedding breakfast is cooked by our own chefs, to the same standard as a dish from our restaurant menu. All our catering is done in‑house.
We are a working hotel, so the restaurant and main bar stay open to other guests. The Atrium, the Sitting Room and a private bar are kept for your wedding.
Twenty-six bedrooms, Spa Maroc and a hair salon, so you and your guests can arrive the day before and leave after breakfast the morning after.
No. 02 One kitchen
A wedding for a hundred is where hotel food usually slips. Not here: the chefs who cook for our restaurant every evening cook your wedding breakfast, to the same standard.
Crab and avocado tian: on our September dinner menu, and on our Simply Stunning wedding menu. Wedding menus are seasonal and you choose from them with us; the brochure has them all.
The evening
Choose from the much-loved finger buffet, the Pulled Pig, a whole spit-roasted Devonshire hog, street food, or grazing boards of West Country cheese, charcuterie and seafood. Some couples swap the cake for a tiered tower of cheese.
The bar
Local ales come from Exeter Brewery, and our wines come through Christopher Piper Wines of Ottery St Mary, chosen for character and provenance. Our own bar team looks after it.
No. 03 Where it happens
Four licensed spaces, and if the weather turns on the day, we simply move your ceremony inside.
Up to 100
Our largest room, under a glass roof, with its own private bar.
In the garden
Our licensed garden ceremony spot, with your guests seated on the lawn.
Up to 24
Views over the garden and access to the terrace, for a small ceremony.
Ceremonies and smaller breakfasts
A smaller room for a ceremony or a more intimate wedding breakfast.
No. 04 Collections
Each collection is a starting point. Change what you like, or let us build your day from nothing.
I
Prosecco or sparkling elderflower to welcome everyone, and pasties, pies and pickles for the evening.
II
Prosecco or Pimm’s on arrival, half a bottle of wine each with the meal, and the Bridal Suite for your wedding night.
III
Champagne on arrival and for the toasts, canapés during the reception, a house DJ and the Bridal Suite.
Each collection is based on 40 day guests and 100 evening guests, and you can add more. Prices and full menus are in our brochure.

Leave your details and we will email the brochure to you straight away, with the collections, prices and every wedding menu.

Kind words
These guys made us feel like royalty the whole way through our process of getting married! From the first moment we walked into the Hartnoll we fell in love with the venue and the staff were nothing but amazing right up to the day we said I do! The venue is stunning itself but the staff are what made the day so special. We had our guests say that it was one of the best weddings that they’d ever been to and that was definitely down to the Hartnoll Hotel and all it offers. What we wouldn’t give to relive that day!
I just want to pass on my thanks to you and all the staff at the Hartnoll Hotel who made Jessica and Josef’s wedding day so perfect. The wedding was so well organised and you ensured that everything run smoothly without any hitches. You did an absolutely fantastic job. Your oversight was so appreciated and your calmness and instruction when we were all ready to walk down the aisle definitely had a calming effect on us all. All staff were accommodating, polite and nothing was too much trouble. I cannot thank you all enough for everything.
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for all of your hard work to make our wedding day run so smoothly. We had a truly brilliant day and it is not lost on us that this was down to you all being so attentive and professional. You made us, and all of our family and friends feel so welcome and relaxed. We’ve had nothing but positive feedback about the day; from the amazing service to delicious food and general good vibes from all of the staff.
