Monks Withecombe is the perfect country wedding venue. Located in the Dartmoor National Park, Monks is just over a mile from Chagford, and a couple of miles from the A30. With plenty of free off road parking, Monks Withecombe welcomes you into its flower filled courtyards, beautiful gardens, and wild flower meadows. Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony with close friends, or a romantic epic on a grand scale, Nicky and Simon Heyworth are here to help you plan and organise your wedding day.
Both the Corn Barn and The Gallery are licenced for civil ceremonies, with The Gallery holding up to 100 people. The larger Corn Barn is perfect for a wedding breakfast, Ceilidh, Barn Dance or disco. There are spectacular views from both the Corn Barn and The Gallery, and the marquee meadow offers a wonderful open aspect to the west and free off-road parking in the adjacent field.
What could be more romantic than to watch the sunset over Dartmoor, gathered around the warmth of the fire pit, with friends and family?

Simon and Nicky bought Monks in 1998.
When they first saw Monks, they couldn't go upstairs in the house, because the floor was collapsing.
For the next three years Nicky made thousands of cups of tea for Steve Gallimore and his brilliant team as they worked to re-roof and repair the beautiful granite farm buildings.
Designing and making a garden from scratch was the best fun and completely fascinating.
We cleared brambles and nettles, old barbed wire and broken farm implements.
Then it was time to rotovate and barrow out endless loads of manure from the farm buildings.
