Magical wedding

From the decor, space, and staff members, there is nowhere like huntsham. It was home from home but also formal and beautifully unique. The staff have been a dream in every single way. Laura our planner went above and beyond for us. The house has a magical feeling to it that I can’t explain, think when you were a child and you wake up excited, that kind of magic. I recommend Hunrsham and Laura to anyone who wants the best wedding ever, there is absolutely nothing I’d change apart from to do it again. I didn’t want to leave.

Magical venue with incredible staff

We had our wedding on New Year’s Eve at Huntsham Court. For context, we had 121 guests, had our church ceremony on the Huntsham land, and stayed for 2 nights - we had 40 guests staying at the venue with us on the first night and c.80 staying for the second (the remaining guests stayed in nearby hotels). We cannot sufficiently explain how wonderful this venue and its staff are but we will try!

Huntsham Court seems to be able to offer you with both a blank canvas if you choose to decorate the venue to your own taste and also sufficient character if you choose to leave the venue as is. It’s the perfect venue for dry hire - the local area boasts a huge selection of suppliers - all with their own experience of working at the venue to be able to guide you through your planning experience.

As for planning, the venue has a ridiculously good set of wedding coordinators and staff members. We used Jennifer as our coordinator/planner and we have been unbelievably impressed with her work - we had a rather far-fetched set of ideas and Jennifer and the Huntsham staff executed them impeccably. The Huntsham staff think of everything down to the amount of tea bags you might want to buy to keep everyone happy. They are also incredibly well connected with suppliers. It’s hard to understand how the venue can be as amazing as it is, with a staff as professional and wonderful all for such good value.

The venue works for both smaller groups (the venue was perfectly sized for the 40 guests we had to stay the night before) and also transforms to work incredibly well for larger groups (121 total for the wedding day). It is quite frankly magical - a beautiful house on a beautiful piece of land. We have visited both in the summer and then in the winter for our wedding and it is beautifully arranged for weddings across all seasons. If you want to dance and party all night - the venue can do that (the Great Hall is an amazing dancing experience - the venue has adorable LED lights that can be turned onto party mode, an in-house bar and space for an EXTRA bar if you want), if you’d rather a cosy dinner - the venue can do this too (we had a more intimate dinner the night before our wedding) and if you’d rather the venue is used for a relaxed affair with board games and guests making cups of tea it can do this too (it has multiple reception rooms without feeling too big, un-homely or overwhelming).

We cannot recommend this venue enough. It’s great value for what it offers, it has endless ways to make your wedding unique to you and it has an amazing group of staff members who will help you make your special day truly wonderful.

Thank you Huntsham

This is quite simply the best wedding venue! Thank you to all the lovely staff who gave Tom and I the wedding experience of our dreams.
Huntsham Court is stunning, we had every weather possible over the weekend and it really didn’t matter. All of the rooms and the bedrooms were gorgeous and our guests were blown away. Despite being a huge grand building it felt like a home away from home for the weekend and I can’t wait to find an excuse to return.

A dream venue

Huntsham was everything we wanted and more for our wedding. Our main criteria was to find a place that slept most of the guests so we could host multiple events across the weekend for everyone flying across the world to be with us. Huntsham allowed us to have everything from a casual backyard garden party on Friday, a cute intimate church ceremony, a formal sit down wedding breakfast and a lively 2am dance floor all in the one place. Our guests could not stop raving about the Venue.
Huntsham also offers full flexibility on the whole event which we loved. We got to choose all our own suppliers and have the day exactly as we wanted.
The staff are unbelievable, they are so friendly and helpful and they make everything run smoothly. It was honestly the best decision we made through out the whole planning process!

An unforgettable wedding weekend

Huntsham Court ticked every box for us. The best venue we came across by far in terms of aesthetics, flexibility, location and cost. We held a two day event, and they happily accommodated all of our wishes. All of our friends and family could stay in the building with us for two nights, and were able to enjoy the entire grounds throughout. The staff were incredible, both warm, organised and very good at what they did. Massive shout out to Natalie who made the whole experience run like a dream!

Wonderful weekend wedding!

Thank you to Huntsham Court for our fantastic wedding in November - the staff were amazing and exceeded our expectations; they were on top of every detail and anticipated any issues we might have. We weren't sure if we needed an event manager on the day but Laura our coordinator did an excellent job of handling everything from inflatable sharks to the sparkler first dance. Our guests loved the venue and many have asked for details for their own celebrations.

Outstanding Stay at Huntsham Court!

We absolutely loved our stay and wedding at Huntsham Court. They exceeded our expectations in all ways, and we started with high expectations from their beautiful photos and previous reviews!

The house and grounds are absolutely beautiful, and are set up so that you truly feel like it is your home to host your event for a few days. The house is immaculate, warm and welcoming, with countless details to explore and experience. The decor and furnishings were beautiful, and felt more like a comfy home than an off-limits museum. Our guests enjoyed the activities available, including croquet, tennis, and jenga. Each room had a unique character, making each guest feel at home and eager to explore all the house had to offer. There is a great diversity of spaces, from small nooks with couches for private conversation to grand rooms that accommodate all guests, together.

The staff went above and beyond, all of our guests had great praise and spoke very highly of their interactions with the staff. Having Natalie (our venue coordinator) and other members of the staff present helped to put our own minds at ease for our wedding day. The staff was flexible and creative to help us meet our ideal vision of a wedding stay, both in the lead up to the wedding and in the organization of the surrounding days. We planned the wedding stay from the United States, and having Natalie’s input on local vendors was an invaluable contribution.

Overall, we cannot recommend Huntsham Court highly enough! We even hope to host an anniversary there… some day.

Arguably the best venue in South West

Huntsham Court really is the most perfect venue for a wedding. It has it all; stunning building, option of picturesque Church on the driveway, beautiful rural setting, gorgeous grounds, wow factor but homely feel, awesome staff and the flexibility for you to create the wedding of your dreams. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Natalie (our wedding coordinator) was a superstar and ensured the day went smoothly for us. I can’t wait to find another reason to visit again one day 😃

A totally amazing wedding experience from start to finish!

My son and partner got married at Huntsham Court four weeks ago and it was out of this world! Everything from the beautiful surroundings and opulent furnishings (made even more spectacular with the Christmas tree and decorations) to the incredible attention to detail on all levels from the fabulous staff and caterers. Jennifer, Clair and co could not have done more and the feedback we have had from all the guests reflects this. I cannot recommend highly enough.

The Perfect Wedding Venue

Huntsham Court is truly the perfect wedding venue, allowing flexibility, accommodation for all your guests and the most beautiful setting throughout the year. The option of booking the venue for 2 nights allowed us to spend extra time with our loved ones and make the event truly special. We could not thank the staff at Huntsham Court more for helping us with our winter wedding in 2023. No request was too big, and the whole day ran smoothly, including miraculous turns around of furniture! Lots of guests commented on how it was like walking into a warm, friendly home, allowing for a relaxed festive feel for the weekend. A special shout to to the most gorgeous Christmas tree provided by the venue! We would 100% recommend the venue and all those who work at Huntsham Court from start to finish, we are SO SO glad we found the venue online and that they were able to support us with out last minute winter wedding.

A magical venue!

We had the most wonderful Christmassy, winter wedding at Huntsham Court and I cannot give the venue and the staff enough praise! It was all completely fabulous and we are still overwhelmed!

We had Natalie as our coordinator and she was absolutely wonderful and made everything run so well for us … going above and beyond for us all day! All the staff were so welcoming, accommodating and made our guests feel completely at home. We went on honeymoon straight away and now we have returned everyone is so keen to tell us how incredible the venue was and the wonderful time they had! That said, I don’t think we spoke to a single person on the day either that wasn’t blown away by the venue and the beautiful setting and we both felt so lucky to be able to have our wedding there.

All the staff were wonderful but we must especially thank Natalie (who is a total genius and the most organised, wonderful, calming person you could ever have with you on your wedding day), Clair who showed us around initially and was always so helpful and prompt over email and Jo who seemed to do everything for us from setting up the bar, making our Friday night run magically, to being a brilliant laugh and keeping us sane! But honestly everyone was amazing!

Thank you so much to Huntsham for such a magical wedding weekend that we will always cherish!

A gem of a venue.

Huntsham Court exceeded all our expectations, making our Civil Partnership weekend an absolute dream. From the outset, the venue's incredible flexibility stood out, allowing us to customize every aspect of our experience. The ability to choose from various room hire combinations ensured that we could tailor the space to perfectly suit our needs, adjusting staffing arrangements based on the number of guests and planned activities.

Huntsham Court truly lives up to its promise of being "your house" during your stay. We booked the venue for three days, bringing in various entertainers, and every request was met with enthusiasm and a can-do attitude that sets Huntsham apart from other venues.

The grand rooms and impeccable decor throughout the house were major highlights for us, and our guests were equally enamored with their accommodations and the stunning grounds. Huntsham Court seamlessly combines opulence with a warm, homely atmosphere, allowing you to bask in country splendor or stroll around feeling like the lord or lady of the manor.

The regular staff at Huntsham Court are an absolute delight, dedicated to ensuring that every detail is taken care of. Their attentiveness made running the house feel effortless from a host's perspective.

If you have the opportunity to attend an event at Huntsham Court, don't hesitate—jump at it! And if you're considering Huntsham for your own event, rest assured that you're unlikely to be disappointed. It's a gem of a venue that goes above and beyond to make your experience truly extraordinary.
