Polhawn Fort
Imagine a home-from-home vibe (if 'home' happens to be a Napoleonic Fort, complete with drawbridge)! There's a path and steps leading from the Fort directly down to our very own beach, where you can steal a little private time together, frolic in the waves with your wedding guests and catch some very special memories - the sea views from the beach are surreal.

Immerse yourselves in the magic of a cliff-top Fort in the South West of England, standing tall among sweeping lawns. A secluded beach, Polhawn Cove, sits below, with exclusive access. A real Napoleonic Fort, complete with cannon, drawbridge and walls eight feet thick looking out across the special Cornish coastline.

There's a set of steps leading from the Fort directly down to our very own beach where you can steal a little private time together, frolic in the waves with your wedding guests and catch some very special memories - the sea views from the beach are surreal.
A wedding can be grand and formal or small and simple. It's up to you. Tie the knot within the Fort's mighty walls or there's the Summerhouse surrounded by the ocean. Totally your call: from the flowers to the traditional or themed wedding. In whatever direction you want to go, it's your choice, and our team are there to inspire and help you along the way.
Granite staircases spiral towards huge vaulted ceilings and rows of windows face out to sea. If you want a unique or unusual wedding, this is 'the one'. You've found 'the one' partner, it seems right to find 'the one' wedding venue that's your perfect match too. But traipsing between hotels, on the hunt for a unique wedding venue, you can start to glaze over.
Room for 16 nearest & dearest (in luxury Vi-Spring beds) to stay with you as part of your exclusive hire, with the ability to accommodate a further 8. It's a '3 up, 5 down' kind of affair, with 3 bedrooms on the ground floor and 5 on the lower floor. All of them with direct sea facing views. The fort sleeps 16 with the ability to accommodate an extra 8 people.
Everything from a unique magical fine dining experience to a scrumptious sharing hog roast. The choice is yours, keep it delightfully simple or go all out. An amazing wedding celebration at a unique Fort served alongside an amazing meal that compliments every aspect of the wedding day.

The dining experience at a wedding can be used to enhance your chosen wedding theme, express your personal interests or even just to enjoy something you find extra tasty!Polhawn Fort can accommodate a range of options and different setup requirements so your not restricted with a set choice. A grand Hall can sometimes call for a grand cuisine experience.

Lovely venue. But the bar could've been better stocked for evening guests.

Great place for a wedding, lovely scenery, setting, and beautifully decorated.
The acoustics made it difficult to hear the registrar, and we couldn't hear the vows at all, so microphones would be a good addition, the toilet cubicles were also really difficult to get in and out of as they were tiny. But, a gorgeous setting, and I one I'd highly recommended.

Beautiful venue located within an old fort on the cliffs by the sea. Ideal location for a wedding. Quality of food was top and staff went above and beyond.

Magical setting for a wedding. The only drawback is the steep steps. Not ideal for some older relatives. Our experience was unforgettable and would not hesitate to recommend this venue.
