Wild hearts, woodland vows and happy hens at Fir Hill

Set across 60 acres of meadows, orchards and wooded valleys with sweeping views over Porth Reservoir, The Fir Hill is a secluded estate brimming with natural beauty and effortless charm. Just 10 minutes from Newquay and the A30 – but worlds away in mood – it’s a soulful, unspoilt setting with Cornwall’s spectacular beaches right on its doorstep.

 
With exclusive-use hire and a distinctive, free-spirited energy, The Fir Hill is a truly versatile venue – welcoming intimate celebrations during the cooler months and large-scale outdoor weddings from April to September. Ideal for festival-loving couples, it offers an immersive countryside escape where wildflower meadows bloom and apple trees hang heavy in the orchard.
 
Just a short stroll from the estate’s entrance, the picturesque Colan Church provides a historic setting for a traditional ceremony. Or you might choose to tie the knot in the woods, where a natural amphitheatre creates a secluded, storybook backdrop for blessings and celebrant-led ceremonies.

 
At the heart of the venue lies a modernised old cowshed that opens onto a generous terrace complete with an outdoor kitchen. Draped with festoon lighting and overlooking the reservoir and woodland beyond, it’s a dreamy spot for sunset drinks and al fresco feasting – made all the more magical under the cover of a stretch tent.
 
When it’s time to turn in, guests can retreat to bell tents or Mongolian yurts. From woodland vows to starry-night dancing, The Fir Hill invites you to linger longer and soak up the magic of this tucked-away Cornish paradise.

Or why not gather the gang for a nature-filled hen weekend? Spend your days soaking up the serenity of the estate - from lazy brunches in the meadow to sunset drinks by the firepit - then dip into the buzz of nearby Newquay for seaside cocktails and coastal adventures. It's the perfect blend of wild and whimsical, with memories made under open skies.
