Bespoke Small Weddings and Couples’ Romantic Escapes
All About Frieda And The Moon
People often ask – “why the unusual name?”
Well, we wanted a name that summed up the vision of our unique Cornish hideaway – the sense of wonder of special moments in the countryside – the canopy of stars in the deep black night sky; a buzzard gliding overhead; a sudden owl in the afternoon. In the poem Full Moon and Little Frieda, Ted Hughes beautifully captures the amazement of small moments: a small child, helping with the evening milking, suddenly sees the huge harvest moon rising over the fields… That seemed to sum up our inspiration very well…
We aim to set the scene for never-to-be-forgotten experiences…
…to create a beautiful space where you can encounter the wonder and magic of the natural world, from a spider’s web in the morning dew to the galaxies spiralling above in our amazing dark skies. …to provide the ultimate Romantic Escape in The Tabernacle and Observatory, and a completely unique “exquisite tiny venue” for small weddings, elopements, pagan marriages, and renewals of vows; all in the unspoilt tranquillity of our secluded valley in this unspoiled corner of “Hidden Cornwall”.
“we had our most perfect holiday ever in The Tabernacle — such a warm welcome, so much attention to detail, the comfort, the view, the amazing design of the space and all the lovely quirky stuff inside… I could go on and on. Coming home to soak in the hot tub under the evening stars was just incredible. So relaxed now. Don’t change a thing. We will be back…”
