The best day ever

Megan and Iain were amazing from the beginning noting down everything that we wanted. They talked us through everything in detail for the day. The day itself was fantastic. I stayed the night before and had a lovely meal with my family and Bridesmaids in the resteraunt. Megan and Iain made sure everything was in place and made me and my husband feel so relaxed on the day. We ever forgot batteries for our battery candles for the tables and without even saying anything a member of staff went to the shop and got them. When we came into the room we couldn't believe they were all lit up. It was little touches like that that made the day so special. I really can't thank them enough. A day we will never ever forget.

Stress free wedding!

We had our wedding reception at draycote in July 2022. Megan and Ian made the whole process so easy and really listened to what we wanted and made sure it happened. We never felt like any request or question would be disregarded and were looked after from start to finish! We couldn’t have picked a better venue for our reception and the staff were so attentive - we genuinely felt like nothing was ever too much!

Wedding 28.05.2022

We used Draycote as our wedding venue in May 2022. We could not fault them at all.
As we had been working with Draycote since November 2019 with our wedding date being moved, Draycote were consistent throughout.
Leading up to our wedding, looking at the final preparation and the final details, Draycote were superb, getting it exactly how we wanted it to be.
Our wedding day was what we imagined plus much more!
We would definitely recommend Draycote as a hotel and a wedding venue!

Wonderful Venue

We had our wonderful wedding day here on 4th December 2021, from the initial show around where we knew it was the venue for us to our magical big day everything was perfect. Nothing was too much trouble, they welcomed our endless questions and changes, meaning there was no stress and our day ran seamlessly. Emma was there for all of the planning stages and ensured that every detail was captured, then on the big day the whole team were amazing, there in the background making sure they delivered our vision. Ian especially worked tirelessly to ensure our day went to plan. We wanted our guests to not only enjoy the day but to feel relaxed and that is the exact feedback we had from so many. The food was exceptional, we were welcomed to input to the menu and many guests said it was the best wedding food they have had. Thank you to each and every one of you that was involved for all of your hard work.

August Exclusive Wedding

Thank you so much!! Mia, Snehal, Peter, Kasia and the team! Everyone worked so hard to make our day as special as possible, despite my particular and fussy ways they all truly outdid themselves and no request (no matter how big) they met and exceeded. The food was amazing, the venue was beautiful, the weather was a pain but we worked with it! Just wish we could do it all over again! Thank you to everyone that was involved with the weekend set up, mia for dealing with my 1000’s of emails to the run up to the wedding and Snehal and Peter for looking after us all! My thank yous could go on and on! Can’t wait to come back and have some shots with you all for our anniversary stay.. let’s hope Lee Bannister isn’t in a boot this time!

July Wedding

Me and my now husband! Got married here on 6/7/19 and it was everything we wanted it to be. We met with Mia and had our meetings leading up to the wedding and she couldn’t do enough for us. On the day of the wedding and night before we had snehal and wei look after us and they couldn’t do enough for us and made us feel so special and welcome I was completely at ease in the run up to what was a busy day. On the day snehal, Kasia and wei looked after us so well. The food came out quickly and efficiently and was beautiful. They made sure our day ran absolutely perfect and all to time and for that I cannot thank them enough. The beds were so comfy and spacious and the bedrooms were lovely and spacious too. We cannot thank you all enough for making our day so perfect as without you all it wouldn’t have been and we can’t wait to come back next year for our wedding anniversary! Love Mr and Mrs Tacey

January Wedding

We held our wedding at Draycote in January 2019. It was more than we could of ever expected. The planning that went in to it was immense but nothing was too much trouble for the wedding team at Draycote. Even after our many changes they accomodated us accordingly. There were so many little touches and extras I would have never thought of if it wasn’t for Mia the wedding co-ordinator, she was incredible.
The hotel itself is beautiful and modern but the beams and room shapes made it feel unique. The food is beautiful and this was something all our guests commented on. The hotel rooms are modern and clean and the beds are huge and super comfy! The only downside or fault in the entire hotel I would say was that the ensuites are in need of updating. But this is a very minor issue and should not keep you from booking your wedding here as we were far too busy to admire the bathrooms!
Thanks so much to the team at Draycote who are all friendly and approachable and made our wedding perfect.!’

September Wedding

We booked the Draycote Hotel as the venue for our wedding on 22/9/18. Leading up to the big day we were in regular contact with the venue, especially Mia, the events coordinator. Any concerns or questions were sorted out in a very professional and timely manner. Any little 'special' requests were dealt with no fuss. we were originally slightly concerned that the venue had been booked for another large wedding reception the night before our big day, but we needn't have worried. The room was transformed overnight with everything laid out just as we had asked. The staff could not have been more helpful and friendly from start to finish. It was apparent from the start that the venue is used to hosting large events and everything was done with no fuss. Despite our timings being pushed back slightly due to the weather, everything still flowed seamlessly through the day. All the food was delicious and was served fresh and warm to all 100+ guests. The day went without a hitch from start to finish and that is down to the hard work and commitment from all of the staff, led superbly by Mia and Mark.
If I was going to mention one small negative, the bedrooms, although clean and tidy are a little dated but all of the public areas are very impressive.
I would thoroughly recommend Draycote Hotel if you are looking for a venue for a large celebration. We will now have everlasting happy memories of our wedding day, all thanks to them.

August Wedding

We had our wedding reception at Draycote Hotel on Saturday 11th August and I can not praise the staff enough. Mia was so helpful with all the planning and arrangements and Mark ensured everything was set out as I wanted it. They both made sure our day was perfect. Every single staff member was so lovely and helpful to us and all our guests. The venue is stunning, the food fantastic and overall experience 10 out of 10. I have also visited on several occasions for lunch or just a drink and each time the staff have been so friendly and nice. Thank you so much to Draycote and the wonderful staff. Highly recommended!
