The best day ever!

Wow... Where do I even begin? From the moment we arrived at Burningfold Manor for a venue viewing back in September 2023, we knew we had found somewhere truly special. The venue is breathtakingly beautiful, offering a variety of stunning spaces that allowed us to create unforgettable moments throughout the day. We enjoyed our reception drinks by the pool, exchanged vows in the garden, and celebrated our wedding breakfast in the marquee. Each area provided its own unique charm and atmosphere, making every part of our day feel distinct and memorable. All our guests loved the venue - that speaks for itself!

It isn't just the gardens at Burningfold that are spectacular, but the Manor House and the rest of the guest accommodation is also immaculate—tastefully decorated with stylish, comfortable furnishings that made getting ready with our bridal and grooms parties an absolute joy - our photos are just beautiful.

I must of course give a special mention to Jess, the wonderful venue owner, whose dedication and support were invaluable. From our very first enquiry right through to the big day, Jess was attentive, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our wedding everything we dreamed of. Her calm, organized approach ensured everything ran seamlessly, allowing us to relax and truly enjoy every moment.

If you are searching for a wedding venue that combines natural beauty, elegant spaces, and exceptional service, look no further than Burningfold Manor. We cannot recommend it highly enough—our day was perfect in every way, and we are so grateful to Jess, Richard and their fantastic team for making it all possible. Thank you for giving us memories we will cherish forever!

The most amazing venue and most amazing staff. Jess was a diamond

From the start Jess and all at Burningfold was so accommodating, no question was a silly question. She and the staff at Burningfold went above and beyond for our wedding.

Not to mention the most amazing venue.
Which everyone loved! They all complimented the venue and shared that the owners were lovely. (Which we already knew).

We had some issues with our evening bar and Jess stepped in to sort it (something she was not at liberty to do).

The venue was transparent with no hidden costs and their communication was impeccable.

I honestly cannot thank Jess and her team enough.

They were all amazing and made our weekend wedding magical. (I can’t wait for the photos to arrive). It offered a pool, tennis courts, stunning horses, 2 huge houses, along with additional accommodation for guests if required and so many beautiful gardens, not to mention their pond filled with koi carp along with a platoon if you decided you wanted a jazz band or something else playing music in the middle of their beautiful pond.

Their attention to detail was out of this world and you can really see the love the staff have for this venue and ex family home.

Burningfold offered the best suggested suppliers who were carefully selected, something we appreciated.

They also offered an open day which was lovely and so relaxing. This was to meet and greet with some of their suppliers and I loved their signature Burningfold candle which smells absolutely amazing! I’m still burning it now.

I honestly cannot fault this venue,o was a little apprehensive as it’s quite a new wedding venue however, it was worth every penny and the memories will last a lifetime.

I suggest to go have have a look at this venue you won’t be disappointed.. I promise. (Ps they don’t only do weddings)

Thanks to everyone at Burningfold we are so grateful and honoured that we had our wedding at the beautiful Burningfold Manor.

Incredible - an absolute gem of a wedding venue!

From the moment we arrived to view Burningfold, we knew we had to get married there - and I am so delighted we did!!

We got married at Burningfold in July and it was the perfect, PERFECT setting for our day. It offered us so many beautiful locations to use throughout the day, both inside and out: the beautiful house for our morning preparations, the stunning grounds and impressive Oak Tree, which made a gorgeous backdrop for photos, the distinguished Old Library, the walled rose garden for our first look and drinks reception, the beautiful marquee for our ceremony and wedding breakfast, the epic dancefloor marquee, which worked amazingly for our evening party, and the bar area. Everything is finished to an exceptional quality and Burningfold presented just so many different amazing spaces. We were honestly spoiled for choice when it came to choosing where to do which parts of our day. And to top it all off, Burningfold offered a fantastic Plan B for wet weather, which was so important for us in feeling confident planning a British summertime wedding!! Having so many great indoor spaces to use if we needed reduced so much anxiety for us in the lead-up to the day and we knew the day would be spectacular whatever the weather, which it was!

For us, we were looking for somewhere that was large enough for our potential guest numbers and Burningfold was spacious enough to give us the flexibility we needed on numbers. And yet, despite its impressive capacity, we never felt overwhelmed by Burningfold - it felt intimate and personal as a venue, rather than overly imposing.

Jess and her team were fabulous as we planned our wedding and it was a delight to work with them. We felt that Jess truly cared about our wedding being a success and the day we envisaged, and she was enthusiastic, committed and problem-solving at every step. Jess was so dedicated to making sure our day was how we wanted it, and it is clear how much care and attention she has poured into turning her family home into a special place for future couples. Her and the team were always so accommodating, flexible and friendly to work with, and she always communicated with us with understanding and enthusiasm about our day! She was so generous with her time and advice, and made a huge effort to understand what went into a Jewish wedding and how Burningfold could support it. Jess made getting married at Burningfold feel so personal to us - we were able to put our own meaningful stamp on the day and Jess and her team facilitated that beautifully. Jess also put so much effort and thought in on the day itself, going above and beyond to ensure it ran smoothly and adding such thoughtful touches as leaving us a lovely card and gift in the beautiful Doll's House, where we stayed on our wedding night. We felt so well cared-for.

Jess and Richard, thank you for sharing your home with us, and Ash, Noelle and others, thank you for all your hard work! We felt so supported by all of Team Burningfold and are so grateful for everything you did!

All our guests were in awe of Burningfold and commented on what a gorgeous venue it is. If you are looking for somewhere that will dazzle your guests, Burningfold is an absolute gem! I feel very lucky to have found it and been able to get married there! It is a truly special place that will add a feeling of magic to any wedding day.


We can't recommend Burningfold enough to any couples - we wish we could do it all again!!

Magical winter wedding

We had a very special wedding day at Burningfold. Jessica and her team were completely brilliant throughout the organisation/planning of the day. The barn is a fantastic venue for a wedding reception and we have so many happy memories of our magical winter wedding at Burningfold.

Wedding of a lifetime

From the moment it was imagined, the best place we could think of for our celebration was Burningfold. We are very fortunate to know the family behind it and, it was the best decision we could have made. All possibilities were open and the team helped us connect with potential suppliers and planners for our special day. In the end it could not have been more perfect, the execution was seamless, the venue was stunning and everyone had the best time. The service, food and drinks were beyond excellent. If I could do it all again, I would !
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
