About Merriscourt
Set on the Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire border in the heart of the Cotswolds, Merriscourt is an exclusive-use wedding venue surrounded by 500 acres of beautiful countryside. Home to three stunning interlinking Cotswold stone barns, this elegant venue combines rustic charm with contemporary style, creating a breathtaking setting for weddings throughout the year. If you're looking for a beautiful Cotswold barn wedding venue with exceptional countryside views Merriscourt is the place for you.
Dating back to the 15th century, historic Merriscourt boasts a stunning Cotswold stone and gravelled courtyard that provides a fine welcome. It's unique layout, with seating for up to 130, allows you and your guests to make the most of your special day. Our two airy interconnected barns create a wonderful sense of space and light: the Civil Wedding Ceremony is conducted in the Stone Barn, and guests can then move on to the Gallery for a champagne and canapes reception. The lime-washed White Barn allows the wedding celebrations to progress smoothly and seamlessly from dinner to dancing.
In addition to our guest rooms, we also have accommodation for the bride's family (up to six people) available in a traditional Cotswold cottage at Merriscourt, with breathtaking views towards Burford. A comprehensive list of local guest accommodation can also be provided, all within minutes of Merriscourt at Kingham, Chipping Norton, Burford and The Wychwoods.
Our in-house chefs select the very best of locally-sourced seasonal produce to ensure a delicious menu to meet all tastes. Merriscourt provides a comprehensive wine list, and there is also an option to bring your own wine.
Charlbury and Kingham Stations, with direct lines to London Paddington (approximately 70 minutes away), are within seven minutes of Merriscourt. Our staff are available to arrange transport for you and your guests throughout the day.
