Hayley Sent on 04/08/2025The Perfect Day
Well our Wedding Day was everything we hoped for and so much more! Our guests are still talking about how it was the most chilled wedding they had ever been to and we have to agree. It felt so relaxed and everything was so well organised it meant that we could enjoy the day to the full too.
The "Chapel not Chapel" as we called it was the most incredible place to say our "I do's", the Wedding Breakfast was delicious and all our guests were blown away with the quality of the food, and wine and we had some VERY fussy eaters who said it was the best meal they'd ever eaten.
The team that look after you want to make sure that you have your dream day and were so lovely .... lots of them have been there for years so that says a lot, and Nick was nearly adopted by the Bridesmaids !
As a venue that is pretty much devoted to weddings they know what works and what doesn't work so offer guidance along the way without forcing anything on you, everything is your decision, if you are happy then they are happy.
We had around 55 guests in the day, ate in the Parlour and around 100 on the evening and there was plenty of room in the marquee and grounds for everyone to find a space to relax and enjoy.
Grafton Manor work alongside a lot of local companies and have a great Grafton Manor Package that we opted for, adding some of our own DIY touches. We didn't feel that we had to book anything that we didn't want so it made it a very affordable option when we were researching venues.
We opted for a Festival Themed Evening Reception with our own "Graftonbury" with a silent disco, headbands, sunglasses and light sticks. Everyone got involved and it was wonderful to see the flashing headphones dotted around while guests were still able to chat without any shouting.
We wouldn't change a thing about the day and would recommend Grafton Manor who wants a personally crafted wedding day in an idyllic location that is easily accessable. without being miles away from civilisation. There are around 13 rooms for your guests and lots of hotels within a 5 mile radius so a great location
Couldn't recommend Grafton Manor more

Our Wonderful Wedding
From a very first visit to look around to the end of our wedding day the team at Grafton Manor were fantastic. Every part of a day was handled with love care and professionalism. Any changes we needed to make were done without issue and we can’t fault a single moment of the day. Beautiful venue, beautiful surroundings brilliant staff and amazing food. We can’t recommend them highly enough. -

Our perfect wedding day
From the moment we laid eyes on Grafton Manor we both knew it was the only place we wanted to get married. When we met Adam and the team we knew we had made the right decision, from the very start to the big day they made everything so easy and less stressful for us both with anything we needed/wanted.
We will always be so grateful for how amazing our special day was and would highly recommend this venue to anybody who is looking for a beautiful scenic area.
All of our guests where amazed with Grafton Manor and still speak about how beautiful the venue truly is!Grafton Manor's reply:

Laura Sent on 05/09/2025Fantastic Venue
Grafton Manor is an absolutely beautiful venue, particularly the outside spaces which is what made us pick this venue over eloping!
The staff went above and beyond, the chapel is beautiful and the food amazing. We didn’t fancy some of the options on the menu but Grafton Manor were really flexible and allowed us to alter existing menu items and even add items not on the menu at all.
Grafton Manor’s open days are well worth attending, we met almost all of our vendors at Grafton Manor and felt reassured that these were all known to the venue and worked there on multiple occasions.
Our Wedding day felt magical and we were lucky the weather was on our side.
Thank you to the whole team -

Everything We Could've Wished for and More
Our day was simply perfect ! The most chilled wedding I have ever been to and it was ours ... amazing.
Our guests were talking about the day for weeks afterwards and the food was a massive hit with everyone, and we had some VERY fussy eaters. So for them to say it's the best wedding they'd ever been to was the greatest compliment ever.
They have an incredible team looking after you, most of which have been there for years, which says a lot.... Nick was a great hit with the Bridal Party and guests... a real asset to the hotel.
From the moment that we arrived to the moment we left it was perfect.... so much so that we want to do it all again. -

We would highly recommend this venue to future couple who are looking to get married in a spectacular wedding venue. If we could we would do our wedding day over again and would not change a thing, so a massive big that you to Grafton Manor and all of their staff it wouldn't have been at all possible with out you guys there. -

Krystal Sent on 23/06/2025Outstanding
We’ve just had our wedding here, if anyone is looking for a wedding venue definitely give this place a look not only is it beautiful but it’s like for like homely feel and outstanding garden and views. Adam and Katie was incredible with every step of the way even when little things would crop up they’d always put us at ease and was so helpful even when it wasn’t their duty to. Every call every message they respond very quickly and efficiently. When meeting with Adam we knew this was our place and having our wedding day there this weekend was flawless, perfect and more then we could have dreamed of. Breakfast was perfect too best sausages ever!
Thankyou Adam Katie and team we can’t Thankyou enough! Love Scott and krystal 21.06.2025 we shall forever be grateful to you all! -

Tracey Sent on 15/06/2025Truly Magical
The moment we pulled up at the stunning Grafton Manor we new this was the perfect place for our wedding.
We fell in love with it at our first viewing (this venue has to to be viewed), but on our wedding day it took our breath away. The attention to detail that Adam and his team put into the table settings, the decorations, the flowers, they brought the Manor, and our wedding, to life.
Our wedding breakfast was restaurant quality and our guests thoroughly enjoyed their 3 course meal and great wine.
Their are so many places both inside and outside in the grounds for fabulous wedding photos. From the stone steps, to the lake, to the little love bridge, we can't wait to see our photos.
Adam was on hand throughout the day, ensuring both we and our guests were at the right place at the right time and acting as Master of Ceremonies.
Adam, Katie and the whole team are flawless in their professionalism and friendliness and wow do they know how to put together a wedding day.
The Bridal Suite and guests rooms are impressive and comfortable and spending our first morning as a married couple, with our family and friends enjoying a beautifully cooked breakfast, going over the previous days events was really special.
We had the most magical day.
