The staff at the Carriage Hall were all so helpful in the process of planning our wedding reception. We wanted to do a more informal evening-style reception and they made every one of our requests happen. They looked after us very well and getting to stay in the shepherding huts meant we didn't worry about anything - would absolutely recommend.

the olde barn hotel was an absolutely lovely venue to have a wedding at. Me and my now husband got married there in April and the venue and staff where absolutely wonderful nothing was too much and they kept us at ease all day and made our day run smoothly. they where truly wonderful and we would definitely recommend them to anyone

I know everyone thinks their wedding was the best - but I really believe ours was! And a massive part of that was due to our beautiful venue, Donington Park Farmhouse. We always wanted a cosy winter wedding, and this stunning venue was just perfect for it. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the cosy bar area with its array of comfy seating and crackling fire place. We chose to have our ceremony in the breathtaking Threshing Barn which was the perfect backdrop to our wintry wedding. The venue has lots of comfy seating areas so kids can find comfy corners to relax whilst grown ups fill the dance floor in the evening. Our band were thrilled with the big stage and the acoustics in the barn. It was all just perfect! When we first visited Donington Park Farmhouse, we knew it would be our perfect venue. To make this even better, the staff who work there have been outstanding. We have had constant contact from the events team, especially Alicja, who answered all our questions and responded quickly to emails. Milly ran our day and she was fantastic, regularly checking in with myself and the groom to check we were having a great day. She went above and beyond, even sitting with a page boy who fell asleep so that his parents could join us for group photos. We had a lot of picky eaters and children at our wedding, but the food was outstanding. We’ve had so many compliments on the wedding breakfast (we went for the BBQ) and on the evening buffet. I loved the Pig Sties for our wedding breakfast - it was quirky and cosy and there was lots of space for all guests. The bar area was beautiful and guests said the drinks were reasonably priced. We could play our own playlists in each room too! Breakfast the next morning was equally delicious - we had very happy guests. The venue is gorgeous, set in the beautiful countryside with stunning views all around. Having so many rooms available on site was a huge bonus, and our guests said their rooms were all cosy, clean and spacious. In addition, East Midlands airport is an 8 minute drive away so any guests who needed accommodation offsite were spoilt for choice. Furthermore, the car park was huge! There were loads of outdoor areas and stunning courtyards for summer weddings as well if that’s your style. Honestly could not recommend this venue enough! I’m just so sad it’s all over!

What can we say, we absolutely loved Elsham Hall as our venue. It is a truly beautiful place, from the gorgeous grounds, the beautiful buildings its just a fabulous setting. The recent renovations have really elevated the venue but has not taken away from its historic structure. There is a bridal prep room which is just beyond anything you could wish for, a wonderful space to get ready I was blown away. The venue comes with Heidi, well this lady is a game changer, she helped us plan and organise and made us feel like the most special couple. She really listened to us and appreciated what we wanted as a couple. She suggested great suppliers and we can not thank her enough!! We had the most amazing experience and have made some wonderful memories, thank you x

If you want a rustic wedding I would recommend this location I know quite a few people in my life that have got married at this location

We recently celebrated our wedding at Hazel Gap in Nottingham, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From the moment we first laid eyes on the stunning building and breathtaking surroundings, we knew it was the perfect venue for us. Having booked Hazel Gap over two years ago, we experienced a seamless process with their exceptional team, who were incredibly accommodating and attentive to all our requests and discussions. On the day of our wedding, the beautiful weather complemented the picturesque outdoor setting we fell in love with. A special shout-out goes to our front of house manager, Beth, who was simply brilliant. Her organisational skills and calming presence made us both feel completely at ease throughout the day. Our evening manager, Channon, was equally impressive, expertly coordinating the evening festivities and ensuring everyone was smoothly ushered into the main room for our first dance. Hazel Gap exceeded all our expectations, and we cannot rave enough about their outstanding service and stunning venue. For anyone planning a wedding, we highly recommend Hazel Gap for an unforgettable experience. With gratitude, Tyra & Tom

We loved the venue on site, loved the cottages and the layout was perfect. Carol was absolutely,amazing, responding quickly and in detail and offering for us to come round and look over anything, she gave us a huge list of suppliers who were amazing. On the day Carol and the team helped us every step and we had the most relaxed and perfect day ever!

Tommy and his team were so welcoming and friendly and really let us design our own wedding back in 2018. The location is right of a fairytale and the charm of the buildings and landscape will live on in our memory forever. Very grateful to have got married there.

Wow where to start with the beautiful Willow Marsh Farm. We had a spectacular wedding weekend. It will forever be a very special memory getting married there. Everything has been thought of to make things so easy for everyone. I did not leave from Friday evening till Sunday morning, after a very delicious cooked breakfast. There was no time to be nervous the morning of ceremony. Bridal house is a few STEPS from the stables. Everything was made incredibly smooth and relaxed from start to finish. All of our family and friends were extremely complimentary of the venue. Thank to all the Willow Marsh Farm staff for making it a perfect day.

Excellent value for money, we definitely got our monies worth and then some. The barn is stunning and neutrally decorated which even suited our rustic/gothic wedding theme so it's really easy to decorate to your own taste. It is on a working farm site but the event area can be closed off to allow for safety and intimacy, throughout the event there wasn't once a disturbance from the farm. The food was absolutely delicious too, it was so hard to choose from their extensive dessert list but we opted for a sit-down BBQ with the sticky toffee pudding and lemon merigne roulade for the wedding breakfast and a small finger buffet later in the evening and everyone loved it! The accommodation (2 cottages) are perfectly cosy but spacious and stunning, we hope to return for a little anniversary break next year. The team are so lovely, laid back and helpful in every way, they worked with us every step of the way to make sure our day was everything we wanted and were all round just fantastic. I'd highly recommend their services for any event, their pricing is certainly competitive within the industry but we didn't find that we had to compromise on anything as a result of spending less. Our guests had nothing but positive things to say about the venue and the team throughout the stay and we are slightly gutted the day is over as it was just so wonderful ❤️
