Tourist Attraction Description: The most romantic venue in North Devon for your wedding.
From wooded cliffs far above the tiny harbour, a cobbled street winds down to the sea past cottages, flower bestrewn the summer long. Clovelly is an enchanting village of timeless beauty and has a picturesque choice of settings for a wedding day of wonderful memories.
The C17th New Inn, in the heart of the village, has a wedding licence, so you can be married in the oak beamed Hamlyn Room (cap. 60) and enjoy your reception there in a heart-warming village atmosphere. The New Inn can cater for a seated reception of up to 30 guests.
On the other hand, what could be more romantic than to lead your guests down the cobbled street to the ancient harbour. Here there is an album filling selection of maritime settings for your wedding photographs.
The C18th Red Lion, right on the quayside, is also licensed for wedding ceremonies (70+) and is a perfect venue for a larger wedding breakfast of around 50/60.
The two hotels offer 19 beautifully furnished, en-suite bedrooms and there are other accommodation options in the village.
We also offer two utterly romantic outdoor wedding venues on the cliff tops to the west of Clovelly village, The Wilderness Summerhouse (cap. 25) and The Cabin (cap. 12). The Terrazza at the Visitor Centre, with its panoramic view of Bideford Bay, is licensed as an emergency wet weather venue.
For a wedding party of up to 150 guests, we offer marquee space on the Great Terrace of Clovelly Court, the ancestral home of the owners of Clovelly. From such a vantage point, the panoramic vista of Bideford Bay and beyond is simply breathtaking. The Terrace is a very short, tree-lined walk from Clovelly Village’s old church of “All Saints”.
