  • "There were also some amazing places for wedding photos including a private shooting gallery you can escape to later on."

  • "The food wasn't great quality compared with venues nearby which was a shame."
  • "There wasn’t anyone showing guests who were turning up where to go."
  • "No secure post box for guest's presents, plus staff didn't clear tables properly before the food came out."
  • "Just needs a few extra touches like air conditioning, a speaker system in the 'chapel' so you can hear the registrar and some fridges for the soft drinks."

Cons:

  • "I’d also asked for some sloe gin to be available specially, which I was told would be sorted but wasn’t available when I ordered at the bar."
  • "She will be the reason I tell people to avoid having the wedding here, which is a shame as the venue is very beautiful (if pricey - £10 for a double!)"
