Polhawn Fort is celebrated for its captivating coastal position overlooking Whitsand Bay that presents the most breathtaking backdrop for weddings, and has recently undergone a stunning revamp in the form of a new brand identity and upgraded interiors. Situated within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on South Cornwall’s impossibly picturesque Rame Peninsula, Polhawn Fort is a place like no other. Created by Chapter Communications, the fort’s reimagined identity is inspired by the venue’s coastal location to capture “a sense of peaceful, untouched nature, reflecting the tranquillity and timeless beauty of the natural world.” The result of the new branding and imagery is three distinct designs that reflect Polhawn Fort’s unique position and proposition to couples wanting to wed in this sublime corner of the Duchy: “the fluidity of the sea, the stoicism of the rocky coastline, and the gentle embrace of sandy shores. Each pattern captures the essence of its element in colour and form, uniting them under a narrative of natural elegance and organic charm.” The refreshed interiors echo this aesthetic, with gorgeous new furniture, linen, lighting, soft furnishings and artwork throughout. The palette complements the soft, natural tones of the brand to enhance the warm welcome given by owners, the Wicksteed family, who run the venue alongside their longstanding team of dedicated employees.
In addition, there’s a new website that beautifully showcases the venue whilst effortlessly guiding users through the fort’s various offerings, including further information on the spaces and accommodation options. A Wedding Guide hosts a selection of downloadable information packs from sleeping arrangements and recommended suppliers to travel pack, table layouts and timing guide, while a newly designed digital brochure provides all the key information in one easy-to-read document.
A palpably magical venue for a winter wedding on the Cornish coast, Polhawn Fort have their final few remaining 2024 dates available at an unmissable price. Enjoying its own microclimate, the bay provides stunning sea views and romantic sunsets all year round which – together with the ambience of a roaring fire and inviting interiors – will ensure an unforgettable affair indeed.
