Combermere Abbey was the perfect wedding venue for us. We knew from the moment we walked in, that it was the venue for us. All of our guests were blown away with how beautiful it is. All of our guests went out of their way to say to us how amazing the staff and food were. We would love to say a massive thank you to Carol, she made sure on the day that we had everything we needed and went out of her way to make this happen. We really appreciated this especially as Carol hasn’t been working there for very long. We cannot fault any of the staff at Combermere Abbey, so thank you so much for making our day so special.

We celebrated our wedding at Thornton Manor and it truly exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, everything felt special and perfectly set up for our day. The venue itself is absolutely stunning – full of character, beautifully maintained, and the perfect backdrop for a wedding. The grounds are incredible and made for some amazing photos, while the Great Hall created such an unforgettable atmosphere for the ceremony and reception. The whole day ran so smoothly, and the team were fantastic throughout – attentive, organised, and always on hand to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. We stayed on site the night before, which made everything feel relaxed and stress-free, and allowed us to really enjoy every moment of the day. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and how much they enjoyed the entire experience. We honestly couldn’t have chosen a better place to get married – we would highly recommend Thornton Manor to anyone looking for a truly special wedding venue.

Me and my husband chose to get married at this venue in October last year - the staff were welcoming, informative and explained our whole day to us. Any questions we had were answered quickly either theough email or over the phone. We had Rochelle and Katie as our wedding co- ordinator and I honestly must have been the most relaxed bride to be as they sorted everything for us and anything we wanted to add ourselves they made sure there was space. Not only this but we used the street stalls that were a massive hit with the guests and the DJ reached out to us about anything particular we wanted. Would definitely recommend this venue as our day ran so smoothly and with no stress ❤️❤️

Saddleworth Hotel go above and beyond what is expected to make sure you and your guests experience the best day ever. Our guests have said it is the best wedding they have been to and the food is the best food ever. Each course was brought out to all guests at the same time, no table was left waiting for their food. Would highly recommend.

We got married in February 2025 , the team was amazing from day 1: nothing was ever too much hassle, no hidden costs and they were always on hand to answer any questions! Regular meetings helped us to feel in control and calm! The day couldn’t have gone any better for us. It was perfect. Being a DIY bride, it was so nice to see my vision come to life. The staff also helped us to do a surprise gender reveal off of the balcony which was super special. Since the day we’ve had lots of comments from friends and family about how lovely the venue was and how amazing the food was! Could not recommend it more ! Will always be a special place to us and love that we can go back for our anniversary every year☺️🤍

Probably 1 of the easiest reviews to write, we celebrated our wedding here on Friday 26th June, booking and planning started in 2023, Ryan took over as co-ordinator in early 2024 and he has been incredible from the day we met. Nothing was too much, he went above and beyond in every manner, you turned my visions into everything I imagined! seeing how I imagined it was just the warmest feeling ever. Other mentions, the rest of the wedding team, Jessica thank you for being so helpful! Sophie - you were fantastic so thorough, polite and a great host. Brego, Akshay, the 2 brothers (sorry bad memory) and all other F&B staff were amazing on the Thursday, Friday & Saturday! All guests have complimented ALL staff from housekeeping, reception F&B! You all made our day so perfect, it was a dream come true and if the only thing that goes wrong on your day is Grans train being cancelled and holding up the ceremony then just goes to show what a good team that you have! We will forever be grateful for the day you all gave us!!! Thank You!

From the very beginning, Victoria was our main point of contact, and words almost don't do her justice. She was absolutely incredible throughout the entire process so engaging, kind, supportive, and always willing to help with anything we needed. She even went above and beyond with things that weren't technically part of her role, from helping us sort out registrar paperwork to hiding my comfy post-ceremony shoes ready for later! The list of little things she did is endless, and every one of them helped make the experience stress-free and enjoyable. On the wedding day itself, Victoria was simply amazing. If she hadn't been there, I genuinely think we would have been completely lost and a bundle of nerves. My husband isn't usually much of a "people person", but he couldn't stop praising Victoria afterwards. She was fantastic at keeping him calm, directing him when needed, and making sure everything ran smoothly. Of course, the building itself is stunning. The setting is beautiful, the atmosphere is unique, and our photographs are absolutely incredible. Everything from start to finish was perfect. I would recommend Manchester Art Gallery a million times over. The venue is breathtaking, but Victoria is what truly made our day so special. We will always be grateful for everything she did for us.

Cannot find 1 fault with this venue. We had our day on 15th July 2022 and everything was just perfect from start to finish, staff were friendly, venue was dressed beautifully and exactly how I wanted, nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was out of this world (and the portion sizes were amazing), attention to detail was spot on. Rachel and Ryan are absolute wedding angels and I cannot thank them enough for everything. Almost 3 weeks on and I’m still in awe of our perfect day 🤍 Thank you everything guys. Xx

We had our day at Rose Castle and it was an actual dream come true. Not only is it an absolutely sensational place, we were also so well looked after both on the day and in the lead up to it. Carol took over our planning and was always so quick to come back to us, giving us some tips, ideas, just always going the extra mile to make our day special. She really ensured the day was completely unique to us. Owen arranged the link we sent out to all guests to choose their food, recommended a song etc. This was such a useful way of making sure they had everyone’s food choices meaning we didn’t have to worry about it at all! And it was also so easy to track to ensure all guests completed it. It was an actual game changer! Paul looked after us on the day and what a lovely man he is. He ensured the day ran smoothly and I don’t think we could’ve done without him! Time went by so quickly and he was amazing at keeping us to schedule. Everything was a blank canvas and we really could make it our own which is a unique feature for Rose Castle. We had the pleasure of being able to arrange our own menu around the food we liked, rather than having a set menu. Being Polish, I really wanted to incorporate some traditional food items into our starters which was absolutely unreal. The whole menu was just a combination of our favourite meals and it was so special being able to enjoy them on our big day, and they were all so delicious. We stopped at Rose Castle the night before our wedding, just us and our two best friends, and it was so special being able to enjoy the place to ourselves and take it all in before the big day. We didn’t event have to worry about putting all our decor, place names, as the team set everything up for us. The four of us had a lovely breakfast the morning of before going our separate ways to get ready. Carol was with us during this time, making sure we had everything we needed, taking plenty of photos for us as we had chosen not to have a photographer during this time to make the experience as relaxed as possible. She was amazing at keeping us calm, and being such a positive presence. Everything was just perfect from the moment we arrived the afternoon before until we left the day after our wedding. I cannot thank Carol, Owen, Paul and the whole team at Rose Castle enough for all their help in the lead up to our wedding and on the day. They really are all so amazing at what they do.
