Dan & Lizzies wedding

We've recently had our wedding here. It was amazing! We really couldn't thank the staff enough. They did everything you you could possibly wish for to make our day special. Abigail (events coordinator) was amazing and was perfect in every way. Holly (wedding coordinator) was amazing!. We would highly recommend either a visit or a wedding here.
The whole process was so easy and the day ran so smoothly. Thank you all.

Perfect day

We chose Tankersley Manor due to the closeness to our family. The whole planning of our wedding from start to finish was helped by the support from the wedding team. We did have a couple of different wedding coordinators in our planning however, this did not effect our preparations and I suppose is to be expected when booking so far out. We will definitely be back for our anniversary!!

Highly Recommend

After we met you Vicky, we were very much relieved and felt assured that our wedding would be properly co-ordinated which it absolutely was, you were very reassuring and gave us confidence so thanks for that.

The day itself was amazing and we would have to be very picky to find fault, so we won't.

Our wedding day was fantastic and went exactly as planned. The feedback from all our guests who attended the wedding, and from those who stayed over was very favourable, and this is extremely important to us that our guests felt this way.

Mr Lawson, we would like to say that every single one of your staff were a credit to the hotel. They were friendly, helpful, professional and attentive. The food and drink offering was excellent, as was the hygiene and cleanliness.

We would like to single out 2 people for special praise though. Vicky Gill did a great job and Frances Cumming was very professional and made sure that our day went so smoothly. We feel that both of these Ladies were instrumental in our day running so smoothly and whilst we appreciate that's their job, they went over and above to ensure everything was just right.

We would have no hesitation in recommending your hotel to our friends and family and whilst we won't be planning another wedding :-)
we do look forward to returning for a meal and drinks to reminisce, and also to spend a night there on our first anniversary, a gift bought by our family.

Thanks so much for making our wedding day so special and so fantastic.

Best regards,
Steve & Amanda Dean.

Thank You Beth

Everything went perfectly we couldn't have asked for anything more all the staff were excellent. The young lady that looked after us on the day Bethany was fantastic. She is a credit to your team, she came in on her day off to meet us the day before and she was just so good on the day. We really can't speak highly enough of her, she took all the pressure off us so that we could enjoy our big day, she kept calm and managed all the staff and everything ran so smooth. She kept coming up and asking if everything was OK or if there was anything we needed and at the end of the night she found me and my wife to say bye. Which was a really nice thing to do, it felt like she was one of our guests not staff - talking and interacting with all the guests. We would both like to thank all the staff at tankersley for making our big day feel so special. But a really big thanks to Beth she is a star!!

Fab Day

the day was absolutely amazing. We both, along with each family member enjoyed the food, occasion and the structure of the day.


I would really like thank Kadey Murs; she was unbelievable on the week before the wedding day and especially on the day itself. She was really supportive and we cannot thank her enough. Can you somehow pas this praise on to management and to her too.


Thanks again,


Craig and Charlotte
