Wow, where do I begin! From start to finish, the whole process has been a dream!

When we first set our eyes on the beautiful De Vere Cotswold Water Park, we fell in love with it and knew this was the place for us. Our first meeting with the amazing wedding planner, Nicole, went brilliantly and helped make our dream wedding become a reality. Over the 11 months, Nicole always stayed in contact and was only ever a message away. Her responses were always instant.

Our wedding day finally arrived on Friday 26th June in the Mallard Room, and from start to finish, it was everything we wanted. All the staff were so organised, and nothing was ever too much trouble. In the morning, Nicole took control of all the setup and made the room look exactly how we wanted it. She was amazing at keeping me calm throughout the morning and was always there by my side.

The wedding breakfast was amazing, and everyone commented on how wonderful the food was! Also, a big shout-out to Lauren, who took over in the evening. Nothing was ever too much to ask, and she was so helpful. She even moved our luggage from our dressing room to our honeymoon suite, which meant we could just relax and enjoy the evening.

The sunset over De Vere from the Mallard Room was just the icing on the cake! Thank you so much to all the staff at De Vere Cotswold Water Park. We will be forever grateful

The location of the hotel speaks for itself. It’s beautiful. Ok staff are very friendly and helpful and the hotel is immaculate. What made the day special for us was Nicole and her team. From our first meeting with Nicole we knew our wedding was in safe hands. She guided us through the preparation with easy. She is so organised and nothing was too much trouble. Even last minute changes on our wedding day were dealt with so calmly and seamlessly. Shes absolutely amazing .

We had our wedding last Saturday and it was amazing!
Nicole was so helpful and accommodating, the staff were friendly, professional and couldn’t do enough for us.
All our guests commented on how beautiful the lake setting was and how delicious the food tasted.
Honestly could not fault it. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone thinking of getting married here.

We had the most incredible day, thanks to Nicole and the wonderful vendors who helped create our most incredible day. Nicole has been an absolute pleasure to work with and we are so glad we chose the DeVere for our wedding reception ❤️ All the staff at the hotel were very polite and helpful, helping us and our guests have a stress free check in and stay, the food and drinks were also amazing, our guests got to enjoy the lovely views over the lake.

Nicole we cannot thank you enough for everything you did for us, you made the wedding planning process so enjoyable! With your quick responses and clear breakdown of costs and vendor recommendations. You have been incredible and are an absolute gem, any couples getting married will be super fortunate to work with you!

Wow! We had our wedding reception last weekend at the De Vere Cotswolds water park and it could not have gone any perfectly. The lakeside view was just spectacular during the ceremony. The confetti throw along the waters edge and all our bridal portraits in front of the gorgeous lake have come out so beautifully!

Nicole could not have been anymore helpful! I could not reccomend anymore!

We had the most amazing experience with our wedding venue. From the very beginning, the team was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel completely at ease. Our wedding coordinator was an absolute star throughout the entire journey—always patient, responsive, and so helpful, even when we had endless emails, questions, and last-minute changes.
On the big day itself, everything came together beautifully. The food was outstanding and received so many compliments from our guests, which meant a lot to us. The venue itself is stunning, with breathtaking views that made the whole day feel even more special.
Many of our guests stayed the night before and truly enjoyed their time—great food, a lovely atmosphere, and a perfect way to start the celebrations.
On top of all that, it was absolutely worth the value and comfortably within our budget, which made the experience even better. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and are so grateful to the entire team for making our wedding so memorable.

What can I say, from start to the very end what a fabulous service we received from the De Vere Cotswold. It truly was the most magical day and I cannot fault their service. A huge thank you and particular mention must go to Nicole their wedding events coordinator, she always made us feel so special. Nicole also single handily made sure every decoration was out and in place on the day taking all the worries out of our hands, she guided us through with such care and helped make us feel even more special.
Truly can’t recommend Nicole and her team enough!!!! Oh and the food was divine!

Nicole was amazing! Such a beautiful venue and amazing day. Couldn’t ask for better.

We got married a few weeks ago, and although we meant to write this review sooner, we’ve genuinely struggled to find the right words to express just how incredible the whole experience has been. There simply aren’t enough ways to say thank you.

Nicole joined our wedding planning partway through, taking over from our original coordinator, and from the moment she stepped in, everything just clicked. She was on top of every detail, responded quickly, and answered my endless questions—sometimes more than once—with patience, kindness, and a smile every time.

Working with Nicole and her attentive team, before hand and on the day, was an absolute pleasure. Our guests had nothing but praise for her, the staff, the food, and the beautiful venue. Even after the wedding, Nicole continued to support us, helping sort out a few last-minute hiccups (including things we accidentally left behind) and offering solutions straight away. The fact that she treated us with the same warmth and professionalism after our wedding meant so much.

The wedding day itself ran effortlessly thanks to Nicole and her team. Things just happened seamlessly around us—one moment we were getting married, and the next, the room had been transformed exactly as we’d imagined, without us having to worry about a thing. It truly was a magical moment for us when we walked in and saw all of our ideas and their hard work come together.

We wholeheartedly recommend working with Nicole. She is supportive, enthusiastic, organised, and genuinely cares about the couple she’s looking after.

I still feel that this review doesn’t fully capture how amazing it was and how grateful we are, but please know that we are eternally thankful for Nicole and the entire team—their time, professionalism, fun energy, expertise, and enthusiasm. Thank you so much, and we can’t wait to return next year.

We booked the De Vere Cotswold waterpark as our wedding venue in which we had our perfect day in April 2025. We honestly couldn’t recommend the venue more. The whole process leading up to the wedding, the communication, the staff, the facilities, cleanliness, food/ drink and the overall experience every time we visited prior to our wedding was exceptional.

We had the most perfect wedding day, it ran so smoothly and that was down to the experience and professionalism of the staff at the De Vere. They ensured we had and got everything we wanted to make it perfect.

We couldn’t have wished for a better venue for our wedding and there isn’t one thing we would change. We are really expcited to go back and stay for our one year anniversary which is included in our package.

Thankyou so much to everyone at the De Vere 🩷

From start to finish, our wedding at De Vere Cotswold Water Park was absolutely flawless. The venue itself is stunning — surrounded by beautiful lakes and peaceful countryside — but what truly made the day unforgettable was the incredible team, especially Nicole, our wedding coordinator.

Nicole was exceptional. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect and that we felt completely at ease throughout the planning process. Nothing was ever too much trouble — from answering our endless questions to coordinating suppliers seamlessly on the day. Her calm, friendly, and professional approach made such a difference and allowed us to relax and fully enjoy every moment.

The service on the day was impeccable, the food was delicious, and the staff were attentive and genuinely lovely. Everything ran so smoothly — it felt effortless (even though we know how much work went on behind the scenes!).

We received so many compliments from our guests about the stunning venue, the food, and how well-organized everything was. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience — De Vere Cotswold Water Park and Nicole gave us the most magical wedding day we could have dreamed of.

We’d recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful setting, top-notch service, and a team who truly care about making your day perfect. Thank you again, Nicole and the whole team — you made our day truly unforgettable. 💕

Booking Cotswold Water Park for our wedding day was an easy decision with such a gorgeous positioning and decor. That's without mentioning their incredible package deals, we booked the top package at the time which was amazing value for money!

We booked 2.5 years in advance and were a little concerned with our choice based on communication issues. However, since Nicole has joined and taken over any concerns we had instantly vanished!
Nicole's approach and attitude towards every little detail is second to none. She is the most gorgeous human with a bubbly personality and nothing is too much! She really made our experience and vision come to life.
The team behind the scenes were incredible with the set up and service on the day.
Staff throughout the hotel could not do enough to help, not only us, but our guests too!
The chef for our day was so lovely and came to discuss anything and everything the night before whilst we were setting up.
The food was remarkable, every single guest whether they be vegetarian or a meat eater had many positive comments to make and in my opinion the food really helps make the day memorable and enjoyable for guests!

From start to finish... (even now when we reach out) our whole experience with De Vere Cotswold Water Park has been incredible and I strongly recommend to anyone considering!

Thank you again so much Nicole and the De Vere CWP team for the most amazingly magical day. We can't wait to join you again very soon!

Love Mr & Mrs Dalmedo 💕

From our first meeting with Nicole, she made me feel at total ease with everything. No job was too much for her and we both felt listened too with how we wanted our magical day to go.

We had a lot of family travelling and so we had dinner the night before in the restaurant and again everyone went beyond their duties to make sure everything was perfect.

I would highly recommend our wedding venue, the setting is beautiful and our honeymoon suite was to die for.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day, thank you so much to Nicole and all who were involved!

We got married here last year and I can honestly say it was just magical! We had originally planned a bigger wedding, however due to personal circumstances we had to bring our date forward with very short notice.

They were so accommodating and nothing was at all to much!! The venue is absolutly beautiful and the service we recieved was exceptional!!


I can never thank them enough for making our day so special, and being so understanding and helpful. The food was amazing and would highly recommend here!! Thankyou all so much :)

We got married in April 2025 and it was the best day at the best venue. Nicole took over the role of events co-ordinator around half way through our wedding planning process and was fantastic. She was professional and approachable from the minute she had the job. Nothing was too much for her and the team leading up to the wedding day and on the day itself. The hotel is beautiful and we had the entire wedding party stay and get ready the night before and most guests stayed the night of too. Everyone commented on how fantastically the day was organised and how brilliant Nicole and her team were. The wedding packages are so well priced, which makes it even better when planning such a big day. We cannot thank Nicole and the team at the hotel enough for helping making our day so unforgettable! I wish we could do it all again!
