AXMOUTH, DEVON

If you’re after a wedding that’s relaxed, personal, and full of heart – The Harbour Inn is the perfect place to start.

Set in the charming village of Axmouth with views of the river and just minutes from the coast, our thatched pub and function room offer a warm, character-filled setting for your special day. Whether you're planning a sit-down meal for up to 120 guests, or something more casual with food, drinks and dancing, we’ll work with you to make it happen.

The Space

Our large function room is a flexible blank canvas – ideal for wedding breakfasts, speeches, dancing, and everything in between. While it doesn’t have a private bar, our team ensures seamless drink service throughout the day.

Looking to make the most of the outdoors? Our garden can host stretch tents or marquees for a magical setting – great for summer weddings or evening receptions under the stars.

  • Up to 120 seated guests

  • Optional stretch tents or marquees in the garden

  • Flexible indoor-outdoor layout

  • Bespoke styling welcome

  • Dogs and kids are welcome too!
