Country Ways, Little Knowle Farm Full Description
Do you wish you could break away from the traditional hotel-style wedding and reception? Just not your style? Country Ways is a totally bespoke venue where you have the whole complex to yourselves and the freedom to create your own dream wedding from the day you book to the Big Day itself. Whether you dream of a relaxed gathering of family and close friends seated on haybales with tasty pasties, Devon cider and a cream tea, or a Country Chic or Vintage Extravaganza with 5* Fine Dining in an exquisite tipi, vintage marquee or circus Big Top... your Wedding dreams can come true at Country Ways. During the peak season from April to October with warm, sunny days and long summer evenings what could be better than exclusive use of the whole complex of 6 self catering cottages, the Wedding Barn licenced for Civil Ceremonies and the beautiful grounds for a whole weekend from Friday to Monday? Country Ways gives you the opportunity to share a wonderful getaway experience with up to 150 of your friends and family members in a stunning and very private location. With extensive gardens and large level lawns for a marquee, tipis or yurts you can celebrate in style with the magnificent North Devon scenery as the backdrop for your festivities.

it truly was the most amazing place.
We had our wedding at Country Ways in September and it truly was the most amazing place. From Thursday lunchtime we took over the entire place, the houses full with family and extended family and some campers on the fields too - it was like we created our own little village for four days with one massive party in the middle. If you want to get away from the wedding machine this really is the place to do it, there are few rules (the ones which are there make perfect sense) and you get to really make it your own and do you what you want. It's entirely do it yourself (with some helping hands on the day for serving etc) - but that's what makes it amazing. Every detail is yours to make or do and when your guests arrive they'll know it was your day. The view over the valley is really special, and if the sun makes an appearance it's only improved! Sue is so helpful helping to answer all our questions and give as much information as possible. And the helpers that we had on the day were amazing too. When you first visit Sue will give you a list of suppliers who have regularly worked at Country Ways, and from our experience [the ones we used] were brilliant. So happy to help and knew the venue better than us so that they could give us all the advice that we needed. If you're thinking of coming here for your wedding absolutely do it, you, your family and friends will have the best day.

we picked the best place possible to have our wedding.
We just wanted to pop you a message to say thank you so much for everything over the last few weeks and months. All our family and guests couldn't believe the place when they arrived, and the messages that we have had pouring in since have only cemented the fact that we picked the best place possible to have our wedding. Please pass my thanks on to Sophie and the team, they were all fantastic, and helped the day run smoother than I could have hoped it for.
