Victoria Sent on 20/08/2025The perfect venue if you love food and need a wedding coordinator who knows what they are doing!
Out of a large number of venues contacted, Emily was the ONLY one who actually took the time to create a personal quote. This made me think she could be the one to help me navigate the crazy world of Wedding management.
As it was my first wedding, I had many strange questions and requests. Emily was always there, quickly answering the phone or email. Honestly, there aren't words that can describe how wonderful this woman is! I never felt stupid or annoying; only supported.
The food!! Oh the chef is amazing and listens to your requests. He even made a very tasty menu for the most tricky of dietary requirements that pleased those special guests!
The day ran so smoothly! No issues! No complaints from the guests! And how could they find fault!? Emily and her team, which included Herbie and Lorna, ran the day and evening with such professionalism and experience!
Emily was always there for a supportive hug and huge contagious smile that just puts you at ease.
To say I wish I could get married here every month to experience the amazing food and such friendly, professional people, just doesn't do the place justice.
The bridal suite is the perfect size to get ready the day of. It consists of the main bedroom at the top of the mezzanine and at the bottom, a lovely large living area with pull out sofa. I would only request a phone to be put in so you can contact reception when you need more water or prosecco - heehee.
There is loads of parking, including electric car charge.
The garden isnt huge but beautiful with the gazebo and views over the fields plus a lovely area to set up garden games!
The ballroom was the room that really caught me, with its subtle 1930s decor. It was the perfect size for the ceremony and breakfast.
I liked that even though you dont have sole access to the hotel, you never are concerned that other guests will crash the area as you have the far left 'wing' of the hotel which has its own access to the bar, ceremony room and even the hotel rooms. So you get that feeling of being 'cut off' from other guests.
In summary, Emily and her team helped me make one of the most important days of my life, not just special, but magical. I am grateful to them and cant wait to go back in 5 years to renew my vows!! -

Emily at the Hog's Back Hotel is second to none. She made the whole thing seamless and carefree. Genuinely couldn't wish for anyone better to oversee the wedding experience start to finish. She was my unofficial planner, confidant, and best friend while we were working on my dream wedding. Id trust her with any event, she honestly made our entire day and I cant thank her enough for the time and effort she put into our day. -

If you are looking for a venue for a Wedding, look no further, as l can honestly say, if you choose the Hogs Back Hotel, you will not be disappointed.
From our first meeting with Emily until the moment we left, a couple of days after the Wedding, there is nothing to fault.
Throughout the planning, Emily was a constant support, she helped us choose the perfect package for us, without any pressure. We faced a few challenges nearer the date, Emily was quick to help and support us, assisting us to change things around, without any fuss. Made a stressful situation much easier!
The day was perfect, even though arrangements had to change, because of constant rain. Emily and staff seamlessly changed everything around accommodate everyone. The Toastmaster, included in the package, John Heasman, was excellent, absolutely brilliant. The staff were amazing, friendly, professional, efficient, helpful, each and everyone of them. They all went above and beyond.
The food, well, what can l say, it was exceptional. It was hot, it was tasty, it was filling. Not one guest complained about any of it, in fact the compliments were many. This included both the Wedding Breakfast and the evening buffet (which was plentiful).
A large number of Guests stayed at the hotel overnight and again they were extremely impressed.
We had the perfect day, despite the persistent rain and this was largely thanks to Emily, the staff, John Heasman and Enigma Entertainment, who supplied the evening music and photo booth.
We could not have asked anymore from anyone, we made the perfect choice when we trusted Emily and the Hogs Back Hotel with our special day.
