Best day ever!!!

I’m not sure I can quite put into words just how amazing The Ravenswood were for our wedding! Not just the day, but the planning leading up to it. We were so blessed to have Georgia as our coordinator & I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better! She was INCREDIBLE. When it came to the day, I had full faith in her so I was able to just enjoy myself & soak it all up. One thing we were slightly worried about was the food, some venues have excellent tastings but they let you down on the day - not here!! Insanely good & we still have people raving about it now. We’ve spoken to a lot of our guests since & they have complimented everything, including the pillows!! If you plan to have your wedding here you’re super lucky & won’t be disappointed 🥰

Best Day Ever

We got married on 26.5.26 and the whole day was amazing!
From waking up in the cottage to leaving after the wedding.
Evie & Georgia were amazing setting up, decorating the hall also getting us drinks, and asking if we needed anything else.
Then max in the evening was amazing too.
The whole day, venue is fabulous.

Ps we need more fans! Also doesn't help we had the hottest day on record.

Thank you again! You were superstars 💗

The Most Magical Venue

We had our wedding at the Ravenswood on 25 May 2026, and I can honestly say that it was the most magical day. From booking the venue in 2023, the staff at the Ravenswood have been so helpful and accommodating - nothing was ever too much trouble (including finding extra fans on the hottest May Day on record, which we really appreciate!) and they found a way to make everything work how we wanted to. Everything we needed was included in our package, with the option to choose extras. We really liked that the honeymoon suite and the DJ were included in the package - not many other places offered this. The booking process was easy, and again the team were so accommodating throughout.

Steve the DJ, in particular, was brilliant and had everyone on their feet all night!

We do have to thank,k in particular, Georgia Heath, our wedding coordinator, who was a complete standout. Not only was she absolutely lovely, but she was also fantastic at organising everything. She let me help when I wanted to, then took over to handle and finish everything as needed. The day ran so smoothly and perfectly, and I put this down to her!

The venue speaks for itself; it is so beautiful, and all our guests loved walking through the grounds. The food was amazing, and the team were excellent when in accommodatingary requirements. Again, nothing was too much trouble.

We are so glad that we booked the Ravenswood, and we would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who is currently looking to book their wedding.

The perfect wedding venue

The Ravenswood was the PERFECT venue. People have not stopped telling us how dreamy the venue was and we couldn’t agree more. We booked our wedding within an hour of being there and knew we didn’t need to view any others (this was our first ever viewing and it was everything we wanted)

Can’t thank Evie enough, the Ravenswood is SO LUCKY to have her, she’s amazing. No ask was too big and she made everything so smooth and seamless. Not just on the day but the weeks leading up to it too. She really calmed the storm and we couldn’t have done it without her. The day felt a lot more enjoyable with Evie having everything in hand. You really made our day memorable and allowed us to be in the moment.

The staff really look after you and your guests and make you feel like royalty. I can’t fault anything, at all ❤️

Excellent Service, and the wedding we always dreamed of.

We got married on April 1st 2026 at the Ravenswood and we had the most amazing day and our incredible coordinator Natalie was an absolute star. From the moment we chose Ravenswood their attention to detail and care for our event went above and beyond. Natalie worked with us to make our absolute dream come true. In the run up to the event, the finer details of our day were taken care of and during the event I could not fault any aspect at all. Natalie embedded clear opportunities to ensure that my husband and I had space, time to breath, eat and enjoy the amazing experience. We had the cottage the night before, which was great start to our event, where we had the entire grooms-party spend the evening with us to go through our day. The next day we got married outside and held the wedding breakfast in the Beatrice suite. We had over 100 day guests and a further 20-30 evening guests and all of them had an amazing time. The staff and team for our event were incredibly attentive, polite and enjoyed our day alongside us. The food was incredible, all of our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves and praised the incredible organisation across the day. We honestly cannot fault any element of the day and the entire team seem completely dedicated to ensuring your day runs exactly how you want it!

Our wedding day

We had our wedding here on the 5th of May, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. From start to finish, everything was so beautifully organised and truly magical.

A huge thank you to Evie, our coordinator, who was incredibly helpful throughout the whole process and made everything feel so stress-free. We’d also like to thank Molly, for making the evening run so smoothly — everything was seamless, and we were able to relax and enjoy every moment.

We’re so grateful to the entire venue team for all of their hard work, care, and attention to detail in making our day feel so special. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and created the most magical atmosphere for our wedding.

We would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a truly special place to celebrate their big day. Thank you again for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever.

The perfect venue for the perfect day.

This was the perfect venue for us to share the best day of our lives together. We got married on Sunday and the weather held out brilliantly for us and graced us with perfect lighting for the grounds and surroundings to get married at the little castle. I had arranged for the rings to be flown in by owl so the castle was the ideal setting. There was lots of flowers blooming around the lake for photo opportunities. The venue and our wedding co-ordinator Georgia were amazing throughout the whole day. We were extremely pleased with how smoothly they made it. The lamb for mains was perfect with a very generous portion and the cheesecake was deliciously smooth and creamy. I highly recommend the venue and hope you all in love with it like we did on our first viewing.

Outstanding!

Beautiful venue, we had Evie as our coordinator and she was absolutely fantastic. Ensuring the day run smoothly. We had a million questions from the start and we were always answered quickly with in depth responses. Evie brought good vibes in the morning, happy to help in anyway that she could. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. Literally could not fault it.
We had an issue as the lift was out of order but they were quick to resolve this by offering an alternative and other solutions. I would do our day all over again! Thank you so much 🤍

The Best Day

We cannot recommend the Ravenswood enough!

We fell in love with the venue on the first viewing 18 months before the day and it exceeded every expectation. The communication throughout was great and really efficient and helped give us peace of mind whilst planning.

Dawn was the most amazing coordinator and went above and beyond to make our day absolutely magical. Adam was brilliant in the evening as well and super helpful and lovely.

The whole team were outstanding and everything went seamlessly. The venue is beautiful and everything was done perfectly. We felt so well looked after and were so relaxed on our day because of how well everything had been handled. Our guests could not have been more complimentary about the food, the venue and the staff.

We had the best day and we cannot thank everyone enough.

The most amazing wedding venue EVER

If you're considering booking the Ravenswood, then I wholeheartedly recommend you do it! From planning to execution, the team at Ravenswood were perfect. The venue is just beautiful and a perfect set up. We threw a few last minute curveballs their way, and they handled it with such professionalism and we cannot thank them enough. The entire day ran so seamlessly. Special special shout out to the best coordinator there is - Evie - who was just amazing!!! Mason who took over from Evie when her shift ended was also incredible and very attentive!

Brilliant Staff Made the Day

We had a bit of a longer planning period than most. We collaborated with The Ravenswood over 2 years and they always made us feel special every time. They had a comprehensive plan laid out that we could slot our own plans into perfectly. Their recommended suppliers knew the venue inside and out. The venue admin was always communicative and no issue was too small.

We were incredibly lucky being paired with the lovely Natalie. She was able to match our group's energy and enthusiasm. Natalie and her coordinator in training Georgia were brilliant on the day - they were there for anything we needed and truly seemed to enjoy making our day special. They handed off to Molly for the evening hosting and she also did a great job making sure everything continued smoothly into the party.

The venue was beautiful, the staff were all so friendly and accommodating for our group's needs, and the food was delicious. We had some unique requirements with so many of our guests travelling from abroad and these were handled without any problem.

Overall a perfect day and the staff made it happen. Thank you so much!

Utter perfection!

From our first visit we knew we had to get married here. Obviously the building and grounds are beautiful and having on site accommodation was a must for us. But what made it was the staff. Evie, you made planning a breeze, nothing was too much to ask and your calm demeanour kept planning fun and easy. The food tasting blew us away and all the food on the day was perfect. Every allergy and intolerance was catered for. On the day, Evie and Molly made sure eveything ran perfectly and we couldn’t be more grateful.
Top tip…stay in the cottage the night before! It is totally worth it and makes the whole thing even more magical.

The best day ever!

The Ravenswood was our dream wedding venue! Natalie was INCREDIBLE in making sure our day went without a hitch and put every possible nerve we had at ease. We had compliments on the beautiful venue and grounds, the delicious food and the staff throughout! The package included enough food and drinks which kept our guests happy at an affordable price for us, and Natalie’s attentiveness meant my husband and I were looked after all day too. Our evening coordinator was wonderful too! The rooms were clean and comfortable throughout and the honeymoon suite felt like absolute luxury! Thank you so much to all at The Ravenswood, we are so grateful ❤️

A dreamy wedding venue!

Me and my Husband recently had our wedding at The Ravenswood and had the most amazing day. We booked the venue around 18 months before our big day and were blown away by the level of contact we had from the venue in that time and the coordinator who was assigned to us a couple of months before the day. Kate, our coordinator, did an incredible job and went above and beyond to make our day extra special! The venue itself is beautiful and the layout just makes the day work so well. All our guests were so pleased with how the day worked and the venue. I can’t recommend this venue enough and it will always hold a special place in our hearts now ❤️ an amazing team as well!
