Testimonials
“I feel so lucky that we found Leys Farm for our wedding, we could not have found anywhere more beautiful or had a better experience. Working with Jonathan & Leigh to make our vision come to life not only made the wedding planning fun and as stress free as possible but made us feel like we had something really special, personal and unique vs a corporate package - we will treasure this forever as they were a huge part of the day and how we remember it. The venue and Jonathan & Leigh are 1 in a million and I wish I could do it all again! “

Leys Farm is one of the most beautiful corners of British countryside we’ve found. We chose the space for its serene views, flowers and fields, the incredible lake and the wildlife (the Herdwicks in particular are beauties)! It has the perfect balance natural countryside but is manicured and maintained in the right places. However none of that compares to how special the space becomes once you have had your wedding there - you feel completely secluded and share a unique & personal experience with your nearest and dearest. Jonathan and Leigh are charming; giving you support and guidance as well as space and patience when you need it. They are very focused on you having the best possible time, and their approach definitely helps foster the magic of the Leys Farm experience. Looking back, that’s the word we would associate with Leys Farm; magical. We couldn’t have been happier with how it worked for us and are already planning our return!

Leys Farm was the perfect venue for our English country wedding. Nestled in a picturesque valley just a short walk from Swerford Church, the farm offers an air of exclusivity and natural beauty that made our celebration feel truly special. We feel privileged to have spent such a magical few days in such a stunning setting. I know our guests still do too.
Jonathan and Leigh were great hosts, making us feel like part of the family from the start. Their unwavering support and attention to detail ensured everything was flawless. Leigh’s keen eye for design, paired with Jonathan’s hands-on expertise, created a seamless and unforgettable experience. Strongly recommend.

Leys Farm was the most perfect wedding venue. Having lived in the village, it already held a special place in our hearts and we knew it was going to be incredible, but Leigh and Jonathan totally surpassed our expectations with their levels of kindness and attention to detail . What sets them apart from other venues is that this is their home, and they want their brides and grooms to love it and feel as comfortable there as they do. It is an utter oasis, and our guests' minds were blown! If you're looking for something a bit different than the classic wedding barn, and you want a space that you can truly make your own with the most jaw dropping background then Leys Farm is the one. They will only do a very small number of weddings each year, which meant we were made to feel extra special. Natalie, the coordinator, made sure every need was met and felt like a true friend who we trusted wholeheartedly. She too was an extremely detail orientated and very organised. We are so grateful to the Leys Farm dream team who made our wedding wishes come true!
