Absolutely fantastic! Our day was amazing and it had been postponed four times due to covid. The Village Hotel could not have been more accommodating with the change of dates. Everything was perfect on the day and Lucy Smart-Cohen, our wedding co-ordinator, was brilliant. She was friendly, approachable, so organised and I had every confidence in her. All the staff involved on the day were brilliant too. Very friendly, but still professional, and nothing was too much trouble. The location of the hotel was ideal for us and our guests. Plenty of parking and plenty of rooms for those guests that stayed overnight. Competitive pricing, Our big day finally happened and went without a hitch. There is absolutely nothing negative I can say about The Village Hotel and staff! A perfect day!

Had a fantastic wedding at the tickled trout, Food was amazing and good portion size. Staff were friendly and accommodating, they made my wedding breakfast look amazing and set it out as I wanted. Charlie is great and was always helpful with needs and replies quickly to any quires and emails. Nothing was too much trouble. Venue it self is perfect and we hired whole pub out which was great such a pretty venue inside and out.

Not sure I can put into words how perfect the Mitre was for us. They were great with communication and understood our plan for the day, executed to perfection. We got so many compliments on the perfect venue.

We've just had our wedding at Bexley Holiday Inn and we cannot fault our experience. Our initial tour gave us transparent options/pricing and every member of staff we met made our questions, thoughts and ideas a breeze. I also really appreciate getting replies to emails quickly as this is rare nowadays! We didn’t need too much time to decide to book our wedding with the Holiday Inn as we picked a package which was well within our budget- even for a Saturday. Having now had our day, it was worth every penny; I feel like we managed to achieve our ‘budget’ wedding without it ever once feeling like we were lacking in anything. The venue itself was perfect. We had so much space for the ceremony, meal, outdoor photos and even rooms to store our things in before, during and after the big day. The room we had to get ready in the night/morning before was absolutely perfect for me, two photographers, make up and 4 friends. We had seen the venue dressed for conferences and seen photos of other weddings but on the day, it absolutely felt like it was special to us. We loved the outside space for photos and for our guests to sit outside on the benches and the kids to play on the grass but throughout the day, there was so much space for what people needed. My elderly grandparents had a quieter zone to chat away from the loud disco or those making using of our private bar! I lost count of how many members of staff were on hand to help set up and run the day and every single one played a key part in the fun we had that day. The food was great and all of the little add ons were never pushed upon us; and we were given alternatives with suppliers or our own choices if we wanted too. We decided to DIY a lot of the decor/speakers and we had plenty of time to set this up before the wedding. The day after, everything was already tidied into one room for us by 8am so loading the car took us a lot less time (and stress!) than we expected. Above everything, our wedding co-ordinator Lauren deserves the most amount of praise. Our frequent meetings and emails always made us feel like we were totally in charge of how we wanted our wedding to go- she was like a genie granting all of our wishes! And the day before/on the day, she clearly went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed and every time we said ‘do we have…’ she’d already have it sorted on her clipboard! It was as if she’d done 1000 weddings before but had the enthusiasm and excitement for our day as if it were her own. I honestly can't think of anything we'd want to have changed on our day. If you’re considering this venue, I really do recommend a tour, chat and to see how people have transformed the rooms as we honestly had the best day and think it was such good value for a venue that was the most competitively priced we’d seen. Sad it’s all over but looking forward to the photos to relive the day!

We were so happy with our whole experience with The Retreat. Ella was amazing, and always on hand to answer any queries - nothing was too much trouble! We had a small wedding in the Orangery (28 guests), the food was faultless and our stay at the hotel was equally lovely. The venue was perfect, even though it was a rainy day, it didn't matter because the hotel is so beautiful. Also, found it great value for what you got. Highly recommend!

Our families were greatly impressed with the service, so thank you so much for all the help you gave us. Darryl was also great!!

We celebrated our wedding at Stirrups in May and we honestly couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue. From the moment we arrived , we were struck by how much character the place has. It is charming, full of personality and has beautiful gardens. The staff were very attentive on the day and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Especially Sam and Brent who were amazing on the day. Our guests loved the food, from the delicious wedding breakfast to the evening buffet. On the morning of the wedding my mum and I were treated to a fresh fruit platter and hot rolls, which were really yummy and a thoughtful touch. The atmosphere was warm and inviting and our guests couldn’t stop commenting on how stunning it all looked. Stirrups will always hold a special place in our hearts and we highly recommend it for weddings and functions!

Katie was brilliant from start to finish she always replied to emails quickly and arrange meeting to fit around work and school runs. Nothing seemed to be a problem especially when wanting to add or take things out of the wedding plans. She made it feel stress free and even thought of things I didn't she was such a great help! Amelia was great on the day making sure everything was in place and on time. The food was amazing people even took some home. The bar staff are very nice and polite. We thought it was a great price for value and wouldn't change anything about our day. We would like to say a massive thank you again to all of you for your hard work and making our day so special so THANK YOU again.
