Dream Wedding

Having booked 6 months in advance our day went perfectly. The staff on the day were superb and did so much even though we barely noticed them. Food outstanding and had various comments about it being the best wedding guests have been to. Wouldn’t change a thing about it. You can just tell they know what they are doing and have seen it all before. Took so much stress away from us. 10/10

Saturday 25th October- Our Perfect Day!

Thank you so much to Nicole and the Nunsmere team for making our wedding day on Saturday 25th October so special! The hall itself and the rooms were all lovely and our guests all had a great time. The food at our wedding was delicious and everyone was catered for. Our guests were raving about how tender the beef was. We have some amazing photos taking from in and around the grounds that we cherish forever.
Nicole and the wedding team helped us every step of the way and on the day Alice was brilliant and helped everything run smoothly. We highly recommend Nunsmere Hall from just having a meal and overstay to having a spectacular wedding.

Stunning venue & the best wedding day

We had our wedding at Nunsmere Hall on 20/08/25 and it was everything we could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, the whole process was so easy, the team were always on hand to answer any questions and put us at ease. The complimentary menu tasting was such a lovely touch and really helped us feel confident with our choices for the day. On the wedding day itself, the staff were exceptional, nothing was too much trouble, and they made everything run seamlessly. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, inside and out, and provided the perfect backdrop for our photos. We couldn’t have asked for a better day and would highly recommend Nunsmere Hall to anyone looking for a magical wedding venue.

Amazing, wonderful day

We went for the twilight wedding package as we didn't want a sit down meal. Everything run smoothly, was a lovely day. The staff are very professional and not only ensured everything went smoothly but also reassured me when I was feeling a little nervous or overwhelmed. Can't recommend enough.

The most perfect venue

We got married here on the 12th December and I CANNOT explain just how magical the day was. The staff are absolutely incredible and made everything feel so easy. Nothing was too much of an ask. We felt like royalty all day! All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed it too, especially the food and their rooms.

Will absolutely be back in the future. Thanks Nunsmere!

Amazing wedding

We had our wedding at Nunsmere on 1st August. It was simply incredible from start to finish. The staff were so helpful and the wedding day ran like clockwork. Nothing was too much of an ask and the staff went above and beyond to ensure the smooth running of our day. All of our guests commented on what a beautiful venue and brilliant day they had there. One of the standouts was the master of ceremonies who was so friendly, polite and welcoming to all of our guests. The food was amazing! We used all of the rooms and marquee for the different parts of our day which was brilliant and the staff were happy to move decorations between the rooms. If you're considering Nunsmere then you should definitely take a look because we have absolutely no regrets about our day!

The wedding of our dreams

We visited Nunsmere on a wedding open day - it was perfect for us. We booked our wedding the following day. Every step of the planning process was stress-free. The wedding team were responsive, professional and supported us in putting together the day we wanted. Our reception went like clockwork. The venue was stunning, the food was wonderful, the rooms were perfect and breakfast the next morning was a special way to end our celebrations. I couldn’t recommend Nunsmere highly enough. We had 130 guests in the marquee and the feedback from them has been glowing.

*AVOID for a wedding* especially larger weddings

*AVOID for a wedding* especially larger weddings and *do not use the hotel bedrooms*. Terrible experience for our wedding in Aug 2023 and we wrote to the hotel management and were promised a reply but then nothing came. 6 months later and I’d rather warn couples DO NOT GET MARRIED HERE. It was really awful from a hotel management perspective.

Here are the main issues we faced which caused undue stress on the day:
-mother of the bride was made to swap bedrooms right before the ceremony started as she had been checked into the wrong room by hotel staff and told she had to immediately pack up and move rooms
-numerous guests checked into the wrong bedrooms and then rudely told it was their fault
-we were charged £10 each for guests who forgot to return their hotel key cards at checkout, I can find no written policy about this (but they take a £30 deposit for each bedroom which they seem to find some reason or other to not return!)
-we had booked adjoining rooms for some guests with children but the staff couldn’t locate the key to open the adjoining doors
-we had use of the library in the dry hire as a room for photos and for guests to relax in after the ceremony- it was full of stacks of chairs and storage from the wedding the day before so could not be used
-when guests asked for directions or simple questions the hotel staff said they can’t answer as they are not involved in the wedding (which is true as it is dry hire but they can still tell an elderly guest which way to the marquee)

Overall a really poorly managed hotel with some rude staff members - not fit for weddings the size it tries to host.
They also run their weddings completely back to back so will be kicking your guests out on the dot at checkout even if they are just waiting in the lobby for their taxi.
The grounds are nice for photos but that doesn’t make up for the rudeness towards guests and poor service.
Using this venue made our wedding day infinitely more stressful than it needed to be.

The best day of our lives at our dream venue

On our first visit to Nunsmere we were blown away. Sian made us feel so relaxed and not pressured into any decisions and everything felt possible. The venue itself it’s pretentious it’s not over done it’s just quintessentially English beauty and we fell in love with it immediately. We felt very lucky to be able to secure a date and everything here on in was perfect and easy to organise with Sians help.
We honestly couldn’t have asked for any more. The rooms are gorgeous, the food was delicious and nothing was too much trouble. The staff are all very professional and attentive and couldn’t be more helpful. Thank you so so much for making our wedding the most special day xx

Best Wedding Weekend Thanks To Nunsmere!

We held our wedding at Nunsmere Hall over two days this past May — the first day being the wedding, and the second day having a BBQ with all our of friends and family. The team at Nunsmere was a dream to work with from start to finish. We planned our wedding from abroad, and they were so flexible with working with us whenever we could get over. The venue was so beautiful and the service throughout the entire weekend was above and beyond. We had the best weekend ever, and it wouldn't have been the same without being at Nunsmere!!

Amazing wedding day! - 31st March 2022

We have had the most amazing wedding day at Nunsmere Hall. Our day ran so smoothly and all of our guests commented on how great it was, a few of them commenting that it was the best wedding they had ever been to! Everyone loved the food and the staff made the planning process so easy, particularly Erin, who helped us plan our perfect day and Clive, the Duty Manager, who made sure everything ran to plan!
The venue is stunning and the accommodation is lovely and spacious. I would recommend anyone to have their wedding at Nunsmere Hall.

Our Alice in Wonderland wedding

We had our amazing wedding at Nunsmere and we cannot fault them at all. Nothing was too much of an ask! Our wedding coordinator, Erin, was fantastic. She made the process so easy and enjoyable. She's a credit to Nunsmere. Our master of ceremonies, Clive, was brilliant and our day went smoothly because of him and the team. Everyone was as excited for our day as we were.
They have so many different options of rooms to choose from to get married in and we had access to them all.
They accommodated us the night before with all of our decorations for our Alice in Wonderland wedding and helped get everything ready.
The bedrooms are out of this world and are massive!
We could go on and on about how amazing they all were.
Thank you Nunsmere for making our day so special x
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
