Barbecue Feasts at The Venue at Sandy Cove

Perched high on Devon’s dramatic north coast, The Venue at Sandy Cove boasts one of the most spectacular coastal settings in the country. With sweeping views across the Atlantic Ocean, rugged cliffs and the distant heights of Exmoor, it's a dream location for couples drawn to the sea.

Ceremonies take place either in the clifftop gazebo or the Seascape Ceremony Room, where panoramic views provide an unforgettable backdrop to your vows. For photographs, or simply a quiet moment together, the venue’s skywalk platform extends out over the cliff edge, offering a breathtaking perspective above the waves below. Contemporary and light-filled, The Venue is designed to embrace its surroundings. Bi-fold doors open wide to the sea air, while sleek interiors and state-of-the-art lighting create an atmosphere equally suited to sun-drenched summer celebrations and cosy winter gatherings.

 
Renowned for its award-winning 3AA Rosette dining, the venue has also introduced a dedicated outdoor kitchen, giving couples even more choice when it comes to their wedding feast. Prepared against a backdrop of sea views, the live barbecue experience adds theatre and flavour in equal measure. Choose from dishes including sirloin steak, tandoori chicken skewers, chilli and lime king prawn and monkfish kebabs, barbecue pulled jackfruit and American-style hot dogs for a relaxed yet memorable dining experience.

 
Adding to the magic is the venue’s private beach, reached via a winding stairway that meanders through the wooded cliffs to the shoreline below. Dotted with viewing platforms, the route offers countless opportunities to pause and take in the scenery before stepping onto the sands for barefoot strolls, romantic portraits or even a dip in the ocean. Wild, beautiful and wonderfully secluded, it’s a setting steeped in the beauty and romance of the North Devon coast.
