Venue & Ambiance

Pros:

  • "The venue is the perfect blend between modern luxe and rustic farmhouse."
  • "The photos genuinely don’t do it justice of how stunning the barn and surroundings are."
  • "The venue is big enough to accommodate a large wedding (ours was 100 guests) and yet still has an intimate feel to it."
  • "The venue inside and out is stunning and finished to an excellent standard."

Cons:

  • "No accommodation on-site that I'm aware of - the bridal party stayed at The Annex, Clay Cross which was wonderful."

Food Quality

Pros:

  • "The food was phenomenal - I'm still thinking about that hummus three weeks later!"
  • "From experimenting with making aquafaba meringues, to creating a bespoke 'chicken' and mushroom pie, he went above and beyond to create the most amazing wedding breakfast."
  • "We had the chicken/lamb banquet and it was the talking point of the whole day."
  • "The food at this venue is unreal, we had the Banquet Trio. Easily the best wedding breakfast we have ever eaten."

Cons:

  • "The vegan/vegetarian options are a good opportunity for improvement."
  • "The only downside was the food was late being served which affected our band’s music set."

Staff & Service

Pros:
