Description
Kehelland Trust is a country house wedding venue based in Camborne, Cornwall, included on the Cornwall Council list of approved venues for civil ceremonies. Set in one of the most-photographed corners of the country, the venue offers couples a Cornish backdrop for their wedding day and combines the practical considerations of celebrating in a recognised venue with the character of its specific setting.
Camborne, in west Cornwall's old mining heartland, is a working town set back from the coast but within minutes of both Portreath on the north coast and the Helford on the south. The surrounding landscape is dotted with engine houses and listed mining heritage.
Country house venues like Kehelland Trust suit couples drawn to a more traditional kind of Cornish wedding — established gardens, historic interiors, dedicated bridal suites and a quietly grand sense of occasion. Many country houses offer exclusive use over the wedding weekend, so the venue effectively becomes a private home for the wedding party. Cornwall's country houses tend to come with substantial grounds and the kind of architectural detail that lends itself to photography.
In their own words, the team at Kehelland Trust describe the venue as follows: "Nestled in the Cornish countryside, in the heart of Kehelland village. The Provision of a rural, horticultural and day care service setting for the support of young people and adults with learning and/ or physical disabilities. Open to visitors 5 days a week, we have 16 acres of beautiful grounds to explore and enjoy, plus an onsite shop selling our produce, alongside a wealth of home grown plants." That gives you a sense of how the venue presents itself; for couples planning a wedding at Kehelland Trust, the next step is usually a viewing — most Cornish venues are happy to host informal walk-arounds outside busy wedding weekends.
