About Us

Country Partners offers a discreet and traditional personal matchmaking service for those who enjoy the countryside and are based in rural areas. We have over forty years of experience in helping people to find love.

About Our Countryside Dating Agency

In 1983, Heather Heber Percy, one of the best-known names in UK dating, created the Country Partners dating agency. What began as a local rural dating agency in Shropshire now offers a service to clients throughout mainland Britain, but how we work is still very much based on Heather’s strong ethos of providing a traditional, high quality personal dating service.

These days, most people are familiar with how online dating works, but Country Partners provides a service that is vastly different to that. We interview all of our members on a face-to-face basis and we carefully check every potential joiner. Keeping to high standards, we provide a professionally set out dating profile for every member to present you at your absolute best. There’s also the option of a photography service included if you opt to visit our office in Warwickshire.

A Private and Confidential Dating Service

More than anything, we preserve your anonymity and confidentiality. With an online dating site, your photographs and highly personal details can be available to everyone, even non members, which could mean your profile being viewed hundreds of times a day not only by the general public, but also by potential fraudsters and scammers. That’s not something that is welcomed by many, particularly if you prize your confidentiality and security.

Country Partners ensures that your details and photographs will never appear on any public dating website and will always remain private, between you, your matchmaker, and carefully selected and checked individuals on a one at a time basis, who we feel could be a good match for you. At higher membership levels, there’s also the option to extend this, so that your profile and photographs only go to people that you have pre-approved.

The vetting process for members is also something we are incredibly proud of at Country Partners. You can be assured that your dates have all been carefully checked and vetted as follows:

  • They have produced photographic ID to prove their identity
  • We have checked their residency
  • They do not live with a wife/husband/partner/ex-partner
  • They are solvent and have confirmed they are joining for the right reasons

Country Partners have an expert team of Personal Matchmakers and Membership Advisers and will handle your application and membership with care, sensitively and professionally. We are also happy for you to visit our office to meet the team and always make visitors very welcome. It can, of course, be very reassuring to see the professionalism with which we operate and to see how your membership will work for you first hand.

Our Professional Matchmaking Process

Country Partners has access to an extensive validated database, so there is a wide choice from which we can select genuine people to recommend to you. However, we know from our long experience over the years as matchmakers, that the old adage is true, and opposites will often attract. That all important sexual chemistry can come from there being a degree of diversity to spark our interest, rather than there being just commonalities. 

Our service is very much about providing choice, so it’s an entirely different experience to joining a small local dating agency that may only have a few dozen members at any one time and running their agency from home on a part-time basis.

Throughout your dating membership, you will have the opportunity of getting to know your personal matchmaker who can become your friend on your dating journey as well as a guide and mentor. Dating can feel like a bit of a jungle, so having someone with experience and know-how to guide you through it all can be incredibly helpful. Our executive matchmakers are readily available to speak with and provide a personal, elite dating service that we believe is second to none.
