Venue & Grounds

Pros:

  • "The house & grounds are beautiful."
  • "The outdoor settings have breathtaking views overlooking the lake."
  • "The surrounding grounds are breathtaking as a setting and a great space for drinks and games."
  • "The house, gardens and scenery are breathtaking."
  • "Brympton manor is the most amazing wedding venue."
  • "The grounds are exquisite with every bit of character one would want from an old English house."
  • "The grounds were perfectly manicured, the house was impeccably laid out."

Cons:

  • "Parking has a limited hard standing and parking in a muddy field when you are dressed up ready for a wedding is not good."
  • "Beware the party barn - steps out on to the uneven cobbled yard are very risky."
  • "Although the laws were nicely kept the boarders were very much overgrown."
  • "The grounds were lovely, but beware if you're booking this venue for winter months or wet days as your heels will sink into the soft grass and you might not make it to the beautiful lake to have your photos taken!"
  • "The evening BBQ was badly organised and understaffed, there was a very limited selection of food that was barely edible."
  • "£250 to light the wood burner by the outside party barn was taking the piss."
  • "The bar had no cold drinks only warm bottled beer."

Staff & Service

Pros:

  • "Special mention to Natalie and Wilson who looked after us so well."
  • "Every member of staff I had an encounter with at Brympton couldn’t have been more helpful."

  • "Staff have been incredible. The whole event has been incredibly smooth and everyone who works here have gone above and beyond to make the day magical for the married couple."
  • "The waiting staff and head waitress were fantastic."
  • "Staff are friendly, kind and approachable."

Cons:

  • "The communication could definitely be better!!"
  • "The director is the rudest person I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with."
  • "Natalie was a little slow at responding to my queries."
  • "The only issue was with Mat/Nat who runs both bars... His manner and approach with customers was off hand to the point of rudeness."
  • "On the day, staff were poorly trained, unaccommodating and at times rude."
  • "The overall experience was tarnished by unpleasant dealings with management who were officious, rude and even threatening."
  • "Nat at Bacchus was defensive dismissive and argumentative when Jo and I asked to speak with him alone to raise our concerns and issues."

Accommodation & Facilities

Pros:

  • "The new bridal suite is amazing!!"
  • "The house has lots of decorative spaces which we used throughout the day and meant we didn't have to stand around waiting whilst the rooms were turned around."
  • "The in-house caterers, Sage with Zest, cooked the meal on Friday night and also catered breakfasts both mornings - the food was great."
  • "The rooms are all pretty unique."
  • "Having bedrooms on site was a big plus for us as lots of our guess travelled from across the country."
  • "The guest rooms and House are all furnished nicely and feel warm and homely."
  • "Our rooms were beautiful and spotless! We all felt very well taken care of and well rested in comfortable beds."

Cons:

  • "My room was awful!!"
  • "We also didn't have any hot water for the 2 nights we were staying there it was lukewarm at best."
  • "All the furniture and light fixing was caked with dust, the bed sheets were stained, and I found multiple hairs on the pillows and inside the bed."
  • "The biggest let down was the rooms. Mainly because of the cost £167 for a closet."
  • "Expensive rooms which are not up to the standard indicated by their cost - in need of updating and attention to detail."
  • "The room needed a thorough clean, it was dirty, dusty and had a tiny double bed with barely room to walk around it."
  • "Our stay was rather marred by the fact that our room was being renovated and there was no door on bathroom, exposed electrics, and a wasp nest in the roof above our room."
