Fantastic! The best day of our lives
Wow what can I say…we just had our Wedding last Sunday and we can honestly say it was the best day of our lives. From the moment we viewed Highley Manor, we just knew it was the venue for us. With the breathtaking view, beautiful Manor House, and gorgeous Guest bedrooms ,it ticked all the boxes.
All the staff at Highley manor are so friendly and they make you feel so welcome, they are genuinely excited about your day, and really go out there way to make your day as special as they can.
From the moment we were shown around, booked, and had our day, the high level of service continued.
I would like to take this opportunity to mention Yvette our brilliant Wedding co-ordintor she was absolutely fantastic from start to finish, helping me at all stages. she helped me with the table plan (as we struggle with computers) she put lovely decorations out for me etc.. going above and beyond. Then passing me on to a lovely evening coordinator called Brooke, who was equally fantastic. We had one little hiccup (not Highley manors fault) and Brooke went out her way to talk to my suppliers and push timings back a little so that the evening went smoothly.
All the guests had a fantastic time and all praised the food, the chef is amazing and the roast beef was cooked to perfection for all our guests. We then had a lovely breakfast the next morning all together which was also delicious, and they again went out their way to make sure we were still ok and if there was anything else we needed. We were so lucky that the weather was also amazing, so we had our wedding outside. Some venues charge extra for this, but Highley don’t. The package is what you pay for and they work brilliantly with their recommended suppliers. Thank you to everyone at Highley for making our Wedding day the best day of our lives and I would recommend this beautiful venue to anyone

Perfect!!!
The most perfect Wedding Venue,
all staff members were polite, attentive and conscientious of us, our guests and Vendors.
Sophie and Brooke were incredible at their role and ensure all of our needs or desires were met.
Highley Manor ensured we had the most incredible Wedding and made us feel like royalty.
The setting is absolutely stunning and speaks for itself with its traditional features, whether you have a Ceremony inside or out.
The food was absolutely delicious and came out in a very timely manner, something that can be challenging when catering on for a larger amount of guests.
The Venue offers exclusive access of the building and this allowed us to fully relax and enjoy the company of just our loved ones on our big day.
Thank you so much Highley Manor and all of your wonderful, dedicated team.
You have allowed us to create beautiful memories that we will cherish forever.

The perfect setting for a medium-sized Sussex wedding, with a team who help you feel like you're the top priority
Highley Manor was the perfect location and size for our 70 person wedding.
The team at Highley were fantastic every step of the way! A special shout out to our wedding coordinator, Samantha - who was so positive, responsive and well organised; giving us confidence that everything was in hand ahead of, and on the day. We were fortunate to have our wedding outside, in spite of strong winds, which was stunning.
We also had lots of positive comments from guests about the food and the facilities. There were a generous amount of rooms available for friends and family to book, and the bar was also very well tended (no long waiting times for guests to get served)! On the whole we had an amazing experience, and felt we got great value for money - we couldn't recommend enough!Highley Manor was the perfect location and size for our 70 person wedding.

Amazing day, wish we could relive it!
Highley Manor were incredible from start to finish, they made everything so easy, which meant we were both incredibly relaxed and able to achieved everything we wanted to. It really helped that they were so easygoing with anything and everything we wanted to achieve, we had JPC events included as our DJ for the evening but we were able to coordinate that our close friend who is also a professional musician was able to perform for the first 30 minutes - the entire process was incredibly stress free and the DJ was incredibly accommodating.
Highley really thought of everything, to the little details I hadn't even considered. They snuck me up the backstairs to the honeymoon suite so I could put my dress on and then my bridesmaids and father were waiting for me at the bottom of the beautiful staircase where I was able to reveal my dress to them all, which was such a lovely detail!
The food was incredible, our guests particularly loved the evening buffet (we had the American hotdogs and burgers and the chicken), and they were able to provide veggie, vegan and gluten free options for all guests with dietary requirements which went down really well! The breakfast the next day was so good and much appreciated by the guests.
The staff were all so friendly and helpful, and we have to particularly thank Yvette our wedding coordinator who helped run our wedding to schedule, had everything under control so we didn't have to think of a thing, was so friendly, approachable and kind, would literally answer any tiny little question that we had in the lead up to our day and we were so relieved to be in such amazing hands.

The best venue!
Where do I begin? I saw the amazing venue and great reviews but I didn’t imagine how fab the service would be too! We had Sophie as our wedding coordinator and throughout the planning process she was friendly, approachable and so helpful.
Before the day, there were a few requests we made that were a bit out of the ordinary, and Sophie went out of her way to find out what was possible and she made it a reality for us. She also called to check in a couple of days before and we had a great chat, and she reassured me.
Planning a wedding is such hard work, it’s a full time job- and Sophie helped clarify everything and made sure that we had everything covered. I was also full of worry and she did a great job of calming me down.
On the day of the wedding, she was there every time we needed or wanted any support. We were both really nervous and she was such a calming influence and did a great job of sorting bits out around us. She also checked in on us throughout our day.
The food was delicious- we had the roast beef and it was better than a posh pub! Great portion sizes and really tasty. The chef’s are clearly fantastic!
When it was time for Sophie to leave, we were handed over to a lovely guy (sorry we were a bit tipsy by this time and can’t remember his name!). He was great, and put our favour shots in ice bowls and took care of everything around us.
When we went up to the honeymoon suite (which was stunning by the way with a gorgeous view!) they had made arrangements for left over buffet food and cake to be put in our room. You’re so busy that it’s well worth doing that.
In the morning, Sophie came up to the room see us with our breakfast (as we asked to eat it in our room instead of downstairs). All of our stuff was packed and ready to go so my maid of honour pack it all for us.
I feel like I could have said so much more but to summarise, Sophie our coordinator was incredible and so was the food. The venue is also breathtaking.

Best Day of Our Lives
We had the most incredible experience with Highley Manor as our wedding venue. From the moment we booked, the team – especially our amazing coordinator Yvette – made us feel completely supported. No question was too small (or silly!), and it was clear they are absolute experts in what they do.
I especially loved how detailed the schedule was in the lead-up to the day. It gave me such peace of mind and helped me relax, knowing everything was so well planned. On the day itself, Yvette and the entire team took care of everything so smoothly – I genuinely didn’t have to worry about a single thing. Everything ran exactly on time and felt effortless.
The venue itself is breathtaking, and we were lucky enough to have gorgeous weather and use the stunning outdoor pavilion for our ceremony – it felt like something out of a fairytale. Having the whole venue dedicated to your wedding is definitely a plus, it made us feel extra special on an already special day.
We honestly couldn’t recommend Highley Manor more. It was the perfect place for our perfect day.
Love to the team,
Charlotte & Callum xxxx
