The most incredible venue and the most incredible staff!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding venue.

From the very beginning, the staff went above and beyond to support us throughout the planning process, and on the day itself they were absolutely incredible. Every detail was tailored to our needs, and we felt completely looked after from start to finish.

A special thank you to Jo, our Front of House, who was simply amazing. She kept everything running smoothly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment of our day knowing everything was in safe hands.

The venue itself is stunning. Getting married outdoors in front of the fountain was a dream come true, and the beautiful surroundings provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding.

The onsite accommodation was spotless and finished to a very high standard, making our stay and our guests stay comfortable and enjoyable. We also loved the cocktail hour, and the unlimited drinks packages offered fantastic value for money.

The food was absolutely sublime. So many of our guests commented on how amazing every course was, and we’re still receiving compliments about it now.

If you’re looking for a venue that offers exceptional service, beautiful surroundings, incredible food, and outstanding value for money, we couldn’t recommend it highly enough. Thank you to the entire team for making our wedding day everything we hoped it would be and more.

Amazing venue and staff, but keep your deposit

We had our wedding at Crondon Park in May, and overall the day itself was amazing. The venue is beautiful, the staff were friendly and professional, and the food was excellent. We were genuinely happy with how our wedding day went.

HOWEVER, our experience after the wedding was very disappointing. We were required to pay a £500 damage deposit before the wedding, with the understanding that it would be returned if there was no damage.

Two weeks after the wedding, we still hadn’t received the deposit back, so I contacted the venue. A few days later, they returned less than half of it without any explanation. When I called to ask why, I was told they would email me with the reason.

The explanation we received was that they had kept more than half of the deposit because some of the guest rooms required “extra cleaning.” This was very surprising, as there was no partying or damage in the rooms. Most of the bridal party got ready together in one room, and the other rooms were used simply for sleeping. We were never shown any evidence or given any details to justify such a significant deduction.

It’s a real shame because the venue and staff made our wedding day special. However, the way the deposit was handled afterwards left us feeling disappointed. If you’re booking Crondon Park, I would strongly recommend asking for clear written information about exactly what can result in deductions from the damage deposit, as our experience suggests you shouldn’t assume you’ll automatically receive it back, even if there is no obvious damage.

Best venue ever

Start to finish the whole day was perfect. The staff work tirelessly to give you a perfect day. Servers at the meal were very professional, Tracey our wedding planner went above and beyond to make sure all ran smoothly. Rooms are spacious and very clean, the whole place inside and out adds to fairytale wedding. All the staff from initial first meet to the actual ceremony were brilliant. Always eager to help and put your mind at rest. I most definitely highly recommend Crondon wedding venue and I have to friends and colleagues. A perfect place fir a perfect day

The perfect wedding venue — truly outstanding from start to finish

We could not have asked for a better venue or team. From the moment we booked, they were always on standby to answer any question, no matter how small, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

On the day itself they were hands on, calm, and completely in control, which meant we could relax and enjoy every moment.
They set out every single piece of decor I made with such care and precision, it genuinely felt like they valued our vision as much as we did.

One of the touches that meant the world to us was that they put canapes aside so we could enjoy them in the bridal suite after photos. Later in the evening, they even made sure we left with some of our cake and thank goodness they did, because I was starving at 5am and it absolutely saved me.

The food was outstanding, their DJ was amazing, and the whole day ran seamlessly because of how attentive and organised the team were. A big shout out to Jo who was our wedding day coordinator! There from the start to the finish!

We never once felt like we were asking too much or being a burden, the team made us feel completely looked after.

Honestly, they were perfect. If you’re considering this venue, book it. You’ll be in the safest, most caring hands.

Truly Special Venue & Team

We recently had our wedding at Crondon Park and couldn't have been happier with our choice. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and provided the perfect setting for our special day. The food was top class and received countless compliments from our guests.

What truly set Crondon Park apart, however, was the team. From start to finish, they were absolutely terrific – professional, personable, organised, and always one step ahead. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their attention to detail ensured everything ran seamlessly.

A huge thank you to everyone involved for making our day so memorable. We would highly recommend Crondon Park to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding venue.

Pay the extra for a magical day!

We couldn’t have chosen a better venue for our wedding on 4th May 2026. The setting was absolutely beautiful, and everything was organised so smoothly from start to finish. A huge shoutout to all the staff, who were incredibly helpful, professional, and friendly throughout the entire day. The bar staff especially were amazing—so attentive, welcoming, and brilliant with our guests all evening. They really helped create such a fun and relaxed atmosphere. We’re so grateful to the whole team for making our day so special!
It is well worth the money and such a beautiful venue with the food and the location - we are still getting such a positive feedback almost 2 months after!!!

Beautiful venue & great food!

Crondon park was amazing for our wedding day, from the staff and service, to the food and hall. All our guests commented on the food sizes for the wedding being great and same for the evening food! Jo our front of house was brilliant making the whole day go smoothly, really couldn’t have asked for a better venue to celebrate!

Michael&Katie amazing Day 2026

Katie and I fell in love with the venue when we booked back in 2025. During our journey of completing the payments and planning our special day, we decided to add some amazing extras — including a magician, who was excellent, and fireworks that looked like something straight out of a James Bond movie.

Let’s not forget the cocktail hour, which was fantastic. The Crondon Park team were incredibly helpful, professional, and supportive throughout every aspect of the day.

A special shout-out to Kayleigh, our house manager for the day. She was absolutely spot on with everything, keeping both myself and Katie informed from start to finish and making sure the day ran perfectly.

We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to help make our wedding so memorable.

Beautiful and Amazing Day!

We got married at Crondon Park on the 1st May 2026 and it was truly the best day!

Jo our front of house was amazing and the whole day ran so smoothly. The food was really good, so many guests said it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding! I (the bride) am celiac so needed gluten free and they were able to cater for my allergy no problem.

The lead up to our wedding was very smooth with constant communication from either Kara, Grace or Carly, all so lovely and helpful.

Nothing went wrong on our wedding day and I think that’s down to the amazing team at Crondon Park, thank you for making our day magical!

The most beautiful wedding day we could ask for

Our wedding day at this beautiful barn venue was nothing short of perfect. From start to finish, everything ran so seamlessly that we were able to relax and truly enjoy every moment. The setting itself is absolutely magical, the rustic charm of the barn combined with the surrounding countryside created the most romantic atmosphere we could have ever hoped for.
What really made the experience stand out, though, was the staff. Every single person we interacted with was kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our day special. Nothing was too much trouble, and their calm, professional approach made the entire planning process feel effortless.
We were also so impressed with how affordable everything was, especially considering the high quality of service and the stunning location. It felt like incredible value for such a dream venue.m
If you’re looking for a place that offers charm, warmth, and a truly unforgettable experience, we couldn’t recommend this barn venue more highly. It gave us the most magical day we’ll cherish forever.

Fantastic day thanks to Crondon

From start to finish Crondon was available to help us and they couldnt have done more. On the wedding day the team was fantastic. All of them made sure the guests had everything they needed and they couldnt have done more for my wife and I. The team made sure I was kept away from my partner in the morning whilst we had our morning golf society and she was getting ready. Its a fantastic venue with the most helpful and polite team. I will be recommending to everyone

Could not fault this place!

We had our wedding here at the end of February and it was just perfect. Every little thing was taken care of for us, nothing was too much of an ask. It was a complete stress free day. As an over thinker, I worried about every detail and went into prep meetings with a list of 30x questions I needed to ask, but yet in my meetings they asked and covered everything so at the end when they asked did I have any questions I had none. Any follow up questions we did have were answered via email within 48 hours. Kayleigh was our front of the house on the day, and was so helpful that I actually felt bad like she was doing too much for us. For our food, we wanted something a little bit different to the standard menu and the kitchen staff actually customised a complete menu for us which was amazing, and guests couldn’t stop complementing the food, and the portions were huge so much so very few of our guests even ate our evening buffet because dinner was so great. Kayleigh worked with all of our external vendors so well, that me and my now husband sat eating dinner thinking oh.. maybe they haven’t arrived, but Kayleigh was just so efficient that she dealt with it all and they were all set up ready to go and we wasn’t even aware they had turned up yet. Our day was an absolute blast and looked amazing, the set up was everything we envisioned and more, better than if I had done it myself. Even down to the next day, everything we brought was packed up for us ready for us to take home. The in house DJ Phil, was so accommodating. We gave him some rough categories of music we like to work with and a do not play with and it was an absolute smash, the dance floor was full all night, and loved his lights that were shining on the dance floor. For my dad and daughter dance, he even custom mixed two seperate songs for me to be unique and sent it via an email file prior to the day to confirm it’s what I had in mind.

From initial meeting with Carly, to our food tastings down to the day with Kayleigh, my only complaint is there’s only 24 hours in a day and I wish I could do it all again. The staff are so good at what they do, so friendly, professional, organised and much more.

If I could give this more than a 5 star review I 1000% would because the full team completely deserve it.

The best day of our lives!

We got married at Crondon Park on 27th December 2025 and we honestly cannot thank the team enough for everything they did for us. It was the day I had been dreaming of forever and they made it absolutely perfect. From the service to the communication in the lead up, everything was spot on.

We first met Debs who is an absolute ray of sunshine. We LOVE Debs! From the moment we walked in we knew this was where we wanted to get married. She made the entire booking process an absolute breeze!

In the lead up to the wedding and on the day itself we worked with Carly, our front of house manager and she truly is an absolute angel. She helped calm our nerves on the morning, kept everything running smoothly and nothing was ever too much trouble. Knowing she had everything under control meant we could relax (as much as possible) and enjoy every moment.

The staff on the day and evening were fantastic. The food was incredible, our guests are STILL talking about how good it was and the service was brilliant. One of our biggest worries was guests having to queue at the bar but there were always plenty of staff serving so nobody was ever waiting long.

The venue itself is stunning. Everything was decorated beautifully and the grounds are gorgeous. Crondon Park really did go above and beyond to bring our dream day to life. I can completely see why it’s been voted the best wedding venue in the UK.

If we could do it all again (I wish we could without the cost 🤣) we absolutely would and we would choose Crondon Park again in a heartbeat.

If you are thinking about getting married here, just do it. You won’t find better.

Thank you so much to everyone at Crondon Park, especially Carly and Debs, for making our wedding the most incredible day. We will never forget everything you did for us.

Our Dream Wedding Brought to Life By Crondon Park

We had the most amazing experience at the beautiful Crondon Park and cannot praise the team highly enough for everything they did to make our wedding unforgettable.

From the very start, the planning process felt smooth and stress‑free thanks to Ellie. She was incredibly supportive throughout, always quick to respond, and consistently went above and beyond to make sure every detail was covered. Her organisation and guidance made the lead‑up to the day so much easier and far more enjoyable.

On the day itself, Kayleigh was absolutely exceptional. Her calm, friendly presence made the whole day run seamlessly. Nothing ever felt rushed or stressful, and we were able to fully relax knowing everything was being handled with such care and professionalism. She created an atmosphere where we could simply enjoy every moment.

Both Kayleigh and Ellie played such a huge part in making our day so special. Their dedication, warmth, and attention to detail truly set Crondon Park apart.

We are incredibly grateful for all their hard work and couldn’t have asked for a better team to support us.

We would wholeheartedly recommend Crondon Park to any couple looking for a beautiful venue with an outstanding team who genuinely care about making your day perfect.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

Sales Manager

Hi I’m Kara, I’m the sales manager here at Crondon park. I have been working here since July 2018.

I started my wedding journey as a waitress at 16 years old and love being a part of this industry. Although I did leave for a few years, I always felt something was missing within my career path and jumped at the chance of returning.

Being in the wedding industry is a role that you have to love. You have to be passionate about the product/service you are trying to sell to potential couples and hopefully this comes across when I talk to my enquiries. As a venue we of course have packages/services that we generally keep to however we are extremely aware that every wedding day is special and unique to every couple in their own way, so we also like to be as flexible as possible and work with couples on their journey.

The one thing I thrive from is getting feedback from our couples that they have the best day ever. This is our purpose and why I love this job so much.
