Thank you to the team at Tredudwell for all their support and help in organising our day, Justin, Valerie and Hayley were all brilliant at helping us achieve what we wanted.

Thank you all!Sue Dupreez ★★★★★ Lovely place fir a weddingKaren Blake ★★★★★ From the moment we arrived on a wet and windy day in November 2018 we knew that Tredudwell Manor was where we wanted to get married. Tredudwell is clearly Valerie and Justin’s pride and joy; their enthusiasm and knowledge leaves you feeling in very safe hands.Less than a year after first discovering Tredudwell, we woke to a gloriously sunny July day and enjoyed the perfect wedding. The day went without a hitch and was exactly the relaxed day we had planned for; an outdoor ceremony with amazing views, welcome drinks on the terrace, a lovely meal enjoyed in the Pavilion and a relaxed afternoon enjoying lawn games and Space Hopper races in the beautiful grounds before dancing the night away and enjoying a Mexican Feast later!We cannot recommend Tredudwell Manor Wedding Venue and the team highly enough, the setting speaks for itself but every little detail has been planned to perfection. We just wish we could do it all again!Photograph credit to Arianna Fenton Photography @ariannafentonphotography@Tredudwellmanor_wedding_venue@hair_by_jess_x@thegoodfoodcateringGeorgina Cammalleri ★★★★☆ Went to a wedding this weekend and loved the space. Beautiful grounds and functional indoor space with dividers that can be easily folded away or pulled into place as the day goes on. The bar was a little limited in terms of its selection of drinks but all in all a great experience in a beautiful part of England.Lorenzo Levrini ★★★★★ I was a guest at a wedding here so I can only comment on what I saw.The grounds are beautiful, the food is excellent and the staff very friendly. I had a great time at this wedding.Chris Dawe ★★★☆☆ Captain Obvious ★★★★★ Steve Merrick ★★★★☆ Adam Oakes ★★★★★ Friends got married here, was a lovely quiet place that suited them well.

We love Cornwall and as soon as we saw this place we fell in love. It’s been in the Shakerley’s family for a very long time. They have renovated it and still more they are planning to do. We can’t wait to visit again and to keep up with these impressive improvements like the temple outside we got married under.We stayed 3 nights and then took over the whole house and grounds for the weekend of the wedding with family and friends. We were lucky enough with bright sunshine and warmth that we could get married outside under their beautiful temple. It was so magical to us I can’t describe. The team there run it so effortlessly and smoothly. Nothing was too much trouble for them. They were well organised, kind, thoughtful, generous and so friendly. Slept like logs and breakfast was sensational. The day went without any issues as they are just so organised and was the best day of our lives. We cannot wait to visit again and see the team, Valerie, Justin, Hayley and Becky just to mention a few.Cows were mooing, house martins flying and Canada geese on the pond, including bats at night and birds of prey hovering for their prey. It honestly is just magical and will stay in our hearts forever. I cannot tell you how special this place is to us.Thank you Tredudwell and see you very soon and our family will be visiting also :), they were awestruck just like us xricardo rocha ★★★★☆ Gary smith ★★★★★ Fantastic venue.
