About Furtho Manor Farm

Furtho Manor Farm is located halfway between Milton Keynes and Northampton, on the A508 Northampton Road. Peaceful, rural setting (great for photos!) with both indoor and outdoor options for ceremonies. Perfect for all sizes of weddings; from elopement with just you and your witnesses, to a full ceremony with wedding breakfast for a hundred and sixty guests, and evening reception for up to two hundred guests.

We host weddings and events in our barn and Furtho East. Outside the barn there is a grass paddock which is included in the space couples can use for their weddings. The venue is licenced for weddings in the barn, our smaller ceremony room or a number of outside spaces, including the gazebo down by the lake. On a Tuesday we price a wedding depending on the number of guests you have.

We normally host just two weddings a week, and only ever one wedding a day. A Saturday wedding has access from the Thursday to set up, whilst a Tuesday wedding couples can come in the day before to set up.

There is also an atmospheric 900 year old Church on the farm where couples can have a blessing but not a legal wedding. It seats 100 and can be candlelit.

We are wheelchair accessible everywhere on site, from the barn, to the church and the farmhouse.
The couple are welcome to bring their dog(s) to be a part of the ceremony, dogs are also allowed in the accommodation.
Camping and Glamping tents are welcome - there are two picturesque sites for tents, with toilets and shower provided.
The wedding party has exclusive use of the B&B rooms for the night before and night of your Saturday wedding - perfect for getting ready and having some informal photos taken, then not far to go after the celebrations have finished. A lovely farmhouse cooked breakfast awaits you in the morning!

From The Owner

We love helping couples create their wedding day at Furtho. Robin & I ourselves got married at Furtho back in 2001, way before we starting doing weddings in the barn. We had a marquee on the lawn and had our wedding in the Church. As I had lived here most of my life we were able get a special Archbishops licence for the Church, which we can now offer for blessings for couples.
