Dream Venue!
We've loved this venue for a very long time and we knew picking it would not be a mistake. From the planning of meetings to support on the day, the wedding team were incredible. It's a perfect venue for those who want guests to stay as the location and aesthetic is great. We felt informed and supported at every stage; from Lexie listening to all our ideas to then Hannah executing it on the day it was a dream. I'd love to do it all over again!The Moat House Hotel's reply:

A Magical Day!
We loved having our wedding at The Moat House! Hannah was our wedding coordinator on the day and she was so so good. Our experience planning with the moat house was firstly passed between multiple coordinators, which was no issue for us as every part of our day was communicated between them perfectly over the numerous appointments. However, when the time came for Hannah to bring it all to life she did not disappoint. Her commitment to bringing us the day of our dreams knew no ends. We had the day that some others may consider their worst nightmare: pouring down rain, dark skies and groom cutting his lip at 6am and still bleeding at our ceremony (I know, crazy). However, with the help of our amazing team of vendors we still had the most amazing time. Hannah was amazing in running to find a plaster to stop my bleeding husband and she even helped rearrange our schedule to give us time to have our couple pictures in the hour of sunshine we had available. What could have been really worrying and stressful, was made wonderful as every single moment was met with a calm smile and can do attitude and that energy honestly resonated through us all. I could not recommend them more. We were incredibly happy with the flexibility of our wedding package too and how valuable it all felt with the complimentary rooms and wonderful service. I know that before we booked our wedding here, we had never even heard of the Moat House, but as soon as we got there, we knew it was the place for us. We will be returning regularly and be forever grateful for the magical day we spent at this beautiful place.-

Amazing Venue, Staff and Coordinator!
What can I say, The Moat house was absolutely stunning!
The sun came out which made the orangery beautiful seeing it all lit up in natural light where all the guest couldn’t get over how special it was.
All the staff and our coordinator Lexie, just done amazing! They all had great communication to all my questions and queries, they always had time for me when I need any reassurance on all my planning even down to the smallest details. Nothing was ever missed.
Lexie my wedding coordinator was incredible before, during and after our wedding. Lexie was outstanding and everything for our day was crossed and dotted for every little detail and she actioned my 2 year vision perfectly!
Great venue for endless memories that was created in such a beautiful setting. 🤍

Relieved in their hands
The staff at the Moat house and wedding coordination team were in a nutshell exceptional. They were attentive and responsive, on the day as well as with correspondence. The venue and grounds are beautiful. The costs were fair budget friendly, providing options to suit all our needs. The food and drink were spot on too! We couldn't have picked a better venue and team, many thanks to them. shout out to Lexie who worked tirelessly on the day, to keep everything smooth, and everyone happy.The Moat House Hotel's reply:

Unreal venue to host our special day - coordinated by the amazing Lexie and Team! March 2026
1000% recommend the moat house to capture your special day. We got married March 2026 here. The whole experience of booking the wedding/regular appointments and communications nothing was too big to ask and always felt comfortable in the hands of the moat house wedding team. Everything was clear in advance and the wedding team as a whole are a credit to the venue!
Special mention to Lexie for everything she did to make our wedding experience and wedding day so special and all guests mentioned how organised the day was and how helpful Lexie + other team members were. Lexie made us feel at ease the whole day and was always very friendly and helpful and we cannot thank her enough. If you are looking for a venue, please don’t think twice of booking this venue. The surrounding grounds are fantastic and some special places to capture memories (including the rowing boat which is a great idea). Look forward to coming back to the venue as a married couple to catch up with the friendly team!!-

February 2026
What an amazing day we had for our wedding day at the Moat House. We hd decided that the Moat House was going to be our wedding venue when we decided to get married. The venue is amazing, the staff are so helpful and nothing is too much trouble. Would like to say an extra big thank you to Lexie who has been on our journey from day one, given us lots of ideas and helping us make some decisions about what we wanted. The wedding breakfast was beautiful and they provided an excellent service to us and all our guests. Can’t thank you all enough for making our wedding day special and memorable.The Moat House Hotel's reply:

Lovely day but some disappointing aspects
We had a lovely day overall and the team were very helpful and responsive in the lead up to our wedding. However, there were some really disappointing aspects to our day. We were embarrassed by the drinks reception, which was really badly organised- welcome drinks weren't ready in time for guests entering, there were not enough canapes served, and neither drinks nor canapes were circulated round the room. The package we'd paid for included certain drinks as the welcome drinks, and not all of these were actually made available on the day.
There were a couple of other hiccups- nothing major but just a lack of attention to detail. The potato we'd chosen at our menu tasting was swapped for a different one, we were referred to as "Mr and Mrs X" despite having requested not to be, and only half the amount of pizzas agreed were actually served in the evening.
We did still enjoy the day but we didn't consider the service 5*.The Moat House Hotel's reply:
Good afternoon Kathryn & Ed,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.
I am very sorry to hear of your disappointment with the drinks reception. Please accept my apologies that the drinks were not poured sooner. Unfortunately, we were unable to pour the drinks during your ceremony, as the Morning Room—where the drinks were served—is adjacent to the ceremony room, and I was concerned this may cause disruption. I was also reluctant to pour the drinks prior to the ceremony, as there was a risk they would lose their freshness.
I am sorry to hear that you felt the drinks and canapés were not circulated adequately. Our team aims to ensure every guest is offered drinks and canapés multiple times. Regarding the quantity of canapés, our chefs typically prepare more than required, so this is not something we would normally expect at our weddings. While it can be challenging to track how many canapés each guest has had, we do make every effort to ensure all guests are offered them.
I have spoken with the chef regarding your wedding breakfast, and he has asked me to pass on his sincere apologies for the error with the potatoes. I understand that you requested a specific potato side following your wedding tasting and that this was correctly updated on your contract. This was an error on our part, and I cannot apologise enough.
The pizzas are prepared in advance, with enough cooked initially to fill the buffet table. As the buffet is served, additional pizzas are cooked and replenished as required. Guests are not restricted in the number of slices they may have, even if they return to the buffet multiple times. We do cook any remaining pizza's that have been prepared and put them out to fill the buffet table for the remainder of the evening, before myself and the staff leave.
To confirm, I had correctly introduced you, by your first names. However, I am very sorry to hear that the DJ referred to you as Mr & Mrs X. I will contact them to relay your disappointment and ask that they reach out to you directly.
I am, however, very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your day overall. It was a pleasure to be a part of your special day.
I have already responded to your direct feedback email, if you would like to discuss this further, please do come back to me directly.
Kind regards

Stunning wedding venue with a great team
We had our wedding day here at the end of November and our day was everything we dreamed of and more!! Lexie and the rest of the team are great at what they do, our day ran so smoothly and the communication throughout the process was excellent. The venue is simply stunning and I have to mention how amazing the food here is too!The Moat House Hotel's reply:

Thank you Lexie and all at the moat house.
From the moment me and my now husband Chris first saw the Moat house we fell in love with it.
We got married on 17th October 2025. Our wedding day was nothing short of amazing. From the breakfast in the library in the morning to the party on the evening everything was just prefect. The venue is just beautiful.
Lexie was absolutely amazing so lovely and helpful, nothing was too much for her, she works so hard, she’s none stop running round working and making sure everyone is ok, she was a pleasure to meet up with and plan for our wedding. She is a credit to the Moat house.
The food on the day was gorgeous so many of our guest raved about how lovely it was.
We had our ceremony in the orangey and it was just beautiful, I’m so glad we chose it.
Over all I can honestly say it was the best day of our lives and I would recommend the venue to anyone to have this place as their wedding.
Thank you so much Moat house to a truly amazing day.
