The Beech House Lawn is towards the entrance of the estate, next to the swimming pool. It is the biggest lawn at Boconnion and can accommodate a capacity of up to 250 guests. Your marquee/ tipi will be 100 metres away from the main house, so set away from the accommodation, and become its very own wedding setting.
Copper Beech Lawn
The Copper Beech Lawn is right next to the main Georgian Manor House. Here you can host up to 120 guests. The marquee will overlook the beautiful ancient oaks and beech trees, with easy access to the house too. Absolute Canvas offers a choice of 2 marquees, a circular and an oval style, to accommodate different numbers of guests.
Terrace Lawn
Boconnion’s Terrace Lawn is attached to the side of the Manor House and is the perfect setting for couples wanting to enjoy an intimate wedding outside. Whether you want to elope, host a small wedding in Cornwall or make it a purely private affair, you’ll love the Boconnion estate. For micro-weddings of up to 40 people, you’ll also have use of the main house kitchen and toilets. It couldn’t be simpler.
Mulberry Lawn
The Mulberry Lawn is tucked away beside the quaint, rustic Boconnion Barton, overlooking the forests and moors that surround the estate. You’ll have full use of the Barton facilities including the hot tub, kitchen, toilets and terrace. The Mulberry Lawn has a capacity for 100 people and is an idyllic setting for couples who want a rustic wedding in Cornwall.
