📍Beautiful rustic barn wedding venue on the Somerset/Dorset border.
❤️Licensed for Civil Ceremonies.
🌳Couples can marry in The Old Milking Parlour itself, or in fine weather on the lawn under the apple trees or in a dappled glade in our private woods The Old Milking Parlour at Cavokay House is a privately owned rural barn venue for bespoke weddings situated in the beautiful Blackmore Vale on the
Somerset, Dorset and Wiltshire borders. The Old Milking Parlour is licensed for weddings by Somerset County Council. For your convenience and peace of mind we have approved suppliers for bar, catering and marquee hire. We do not charge corkage. Unlike many barn venues, The Old Milking Parlour has all the infrastructure you need already in place and included in the price. There are high quality toilets - Ladies, Gents and Disabled - a bar, a catering kitchen and a 56 vehicle car park. Not to mention a professional quality sound system and a dance floor. There are twenty 6ft tables and 120 chairs included in the hire fee. But if you'd prefer to hire in tables and chairs of a different style, that's just fine. There is a level south facing lawn for chatting and mingling - and plenty of room for a marquee (there is no surcharge for setting up a marquee). Access to the twelve-acre grounds is included in the hire price. There are lawns, woods, a stream, winding paths and sun-dappled glades. Panoramic country views abound. If you want a marquee, bouncy castle or even a place to land your helicopter there is plenty of room. You can decorate The Old Milking Parlour in your own taste and style, so presenting a unique experience to your guests. Your personal control of every aspect (including cost) of the big day is assured at The Old Milking Parlour - there are no hidden extras. We even have a selection of wedding props such as milk churns, candelabra and even a carriage (no horse, sorry!) available for photgraphic use at no extra cost. The hire fee includes exclusive use of the venue for a day of setting-up and preparation prior to your big day - so you can enjoy the build up (and maybe even have a few practices to perfect your first dance in private if you wish!). Included in the hire price are two three-hour visits for suppliers such as photographer, florists or caterers in the months prior to your event. Accessibility is no problem at The Old milking Parlour; it is close to the A30 and approximately seven miles south of the A303. The main-line station of Templecombe is about 3 miles away and for those arriving by air, Henstridge Airfield is close by. We'd love to show you around our little slice of paradise. So if you think The Old Milking Parlour might be the place for your perfect day, do please contact us.
