An excellent venue with first class staff, a five star Wedding Organisor & an excellent Master of Ceremonies.
On a dismal, rainy day our daughter was married at the Draycote Hotel. Thanks to the calm efficiency & meticulous preparation provided by the staff the whole event was planned in 4 months & the day went off without a hitch. The Phoenix Suite was swiftly turned from a perfect ceremony room to a comfortable dining room & finally into a great place for the evening disco. The food throughout was excellent & generous in quantity. We were particularly impressed by Sandra, the wedding coordinator, who advised us to reduce the numbers for the evening buffet from the full 60 at the reception to 45 for the evening buffet, as true enough, some guests left early & some didn't eat a lot after such a hearty wedding breakfast. We felt this was a reduction that a lot of venues would not have suggested, but was typical of Sandra's eye for detail & realistic advice. She always returned our calls & both information & help were always available. Because the weather was so dreadful, we were delighted that we had chosen this venue. The ceremony, wedding breakfast & evening disco could all be held under one roof, but not only that, the hotel rooms, reception area, bar & cloakrooms were under the same roof too, so it was easy to move from one area to another without ever braving the rain. The spiral staircase & balconies provided a great setting for many of the photographs & we were more than happy with what the photographer achieved inside the hotel. Paul proved to be a first rate Master of Ceremonies. Any minor queries were dealt with immediately & he was always on hand throughout the day. The room rates were reasonable & the breakfast excellent. If you're looking for a wedding venue then don't hesitate to contact Sandra Binnion at the Draycote Hotel, you'll find an excellent modern setting at a price which is going to be very hard to beat.

Fantastic venue,food,organisation and staff.
The Draycote Hotel is in a beautiful setting by Draycote Water and a great spot for photographs. It is well furbished and very comfortable. From the first time we met with the wedding organiser, to the morning after the wedding when we bid them goodbye, everything was excellent. Everything we asked for was provided with a smile. Everything was good value for money. Top class food, good quality house wines, faultless service. Great location, good overnight accommodation with first class breakfast. All our guests remarked on what a wonderful venue and such personal service. Nothing was too much trouble. We highly recommend the Draycote Hotel to you for weddings and any other celebrations.

Have a relaxed day
We were married at the Draycote in March this year. The day went really well, and we couldn't have asked for more. We took advantage of all 4 private rooms in the venue - starting with the upstairs conference rooms for the marriage itself, which gave a cosy feel for close family, then downstairs to the members lounge for the 3 course meal. We then used the largest function room for the evening reception. Although we didn't pay a premium, we effectively had the whole place to ourselves and our guests giving a really relaxed feel to the day. The Golf course is a great place to 'escape' on golf buggies and take photos too - quite a nice way to have some time to ourselves on such a busy day! The only problems we had were some room booking errors (twins instead of doubles etc) for a couple of our guests, but this was sorted out. Sandra was happy to make changes from the standard package to suite our needs and budget.

Something a bit different!!
A fabulous alternative venue - light, airy and modern. Very friendly staff - all our guests commented on this. Food was fantastic, which they tailored to our requirements. Your Wedding will be their sole focus on your day so you get 100% attention. Nothing too much trouble for the staff. We had a fabulous day.
