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

Hayley Sent on 26/05/2026Absolutely amazing day!
We got married at Grafton Manor on 20th May 2026 and we had the most amazing day! Throughout the entire process, Grafton Manor were excellent, they went above and beyond to accommodate requests, even at the last minute additional guests wanted to attend and it was no issue at all, they sorted it all out. The day went so smoothly, I did not feel stressed or worried for one second. Tyler was absolutely amazing, prior to the wedding was responding quickly and very reassuring and on the night before and day of was just wonderful, really kind and patient. Alisha was amazing, taking photos and bringing them to me to check things; was very reassuring and so helpful. Scott was our Master of Ceremonies and was brilliant, he was fun and wonderful with the guests. All the team at Grafton Manor were absolutely brilliant. Owen, the DJ, on the evening was wonderful. The guests were all in love with the Manor and they were all saying they had never been to a wedding like it, they all said the rooms were amazing. Would absolutely recommend, we had the best wedding day! -

We truly couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue than Grafton Manor 🤍✨
From start to finish, everything was absolutely incredible. Every detail, every moment — just perfect. The venue itself is breathtaking, the views are simply wow, and the rooms are nothing short of spectacular.
A very special mention to Tyler, who was an exceptional toastmaster — keeping everything running seamlessly, guiding the day perfectly, and making us feel completely at ease from beginning to end. You could tell we were in the best hands.
The food was amazing, the breakfast the next morning was just as beautiful, and the entire experience felt so seamless and luxurious.
And we have to mention DJ Owen — what a night! The best last-minute decision we made. The dance floor was full all evening and we had the most incredible party to end such a perfect day 💃✨
Our guests are still talking about how stunning everything was — everyone is genuinely in awe of the whole day.
Thank you for making our wedding day so unforgettable. It was everything we dreamed of and 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. -

This venue is amazing, we have had a lot of compliments about the venue. Adam and his team were awesome, they definitely know what they are doing. 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. -
