    We had our magical do on 1.11.25

    Hello,
    We just wanted to say a massive thank you for making our day so special yesterday.
    Everything was absolute perfection from the delicious canapés to the Michelin quality meal. All our guests commented how it was the best meal they had ever had at a wedding.
    The staff were so attentive and nothing was to much trouble!
    We would like to say a specific thank you to Jeramy, Bogdan and Clive they really made our day stress free and are a real credit to the hotel.
    Libby and Charlotte made the planing stages of our wedding stress free by always replying to emails promptly and guiding us through step by step.
    The Ivy hill team made our day every thing we could have imagined and more.
    Thank you!

    The Perfect Wedding Experience

    The Ivy Hill Hotel team put so much love and care into our special day, Libby, Charlotte, and Lewis were especially helpful and attentive throughout the process and day. They laid out the entire schedule, guiding us through the process. All of their help enabled the day to run smoothly. They also respond to any questions promptly via both email and call. Without asking, the hotel provided a video of the day, both lovely to have and also for family that couldn’t attend. We couldn’t recommend the Ivy Hill Hotel enough, we shall be back for our anniversary.

    Wonderful venue for our special day

    The Ivy Hill hotel is a wonderful Venue for a Wedding. The gardens are beautiful and make a great backdrop for the photos. The staff go out of there way to make your day run smoothly and nothing is too much trouble. Libby was amazing, so organised and ready for any unexpected problem. The food was exceptional with lots of happy guests. We stayed at the hotel for the whole weekend and the rooms are clean and comfortable with the added bonus of a breakfast included.
    Everyone at the Hotel made our wedding weekend better than we could have every imagined and we will definitely be back to celebrate our Anniversary x

    May Wedding

    My now husband and I stayed here for 2 nights and got married here on the second day. We cannot fault the staff. When we found out we would be having a 6 week old baby at the wedding after saying there would be no children we got a "yeah thats fine and congratulations " message and never once felt like it was a problem or an issue.
    We did have to ask for no hot plates to be brought over the baby's head but considering how stressful a wedding can be for everyone and how much has to be prepared and remembered it went amazing. The day was unforgettable for all the good reasons.
    The grounds were beautiful and allowed for some stunning photos and the food was amazing

    We highly recommend Ivy Hill Hotel.

    We had our dream wedding at Ivy Hill Hotel in Margaretting in August ’24. We planned our wedding for a good few years and Ivy Hill was brilliant for us in many ways. They always responded very quickly to all our questions and provided us with the right information at the right time. Ivy Hill Hotel is beautiful, from inside and outside, gardens too. Staff were always very helpful, professional and welcoming, nothing was too big an ask for them. They went beyond our expectations during the planning of our wedding and our wedding day. They surprised us during our Big Day so many times, and did things for us we did not even ask them to do, for example they fixed and decorated our wedding cake beautifully for us after it was delivered slightly damaged and decorated our ceremony table for us even though we did not ask them as we forgot to provide flower decorations for this. They also beautifully arranged our wedding favours on the tables. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. They were there for us during the day, helping us with things we did not think of. We highly recommend Ivy Hill Hotel and we look forward to use the venue in the future.

    Perfect venue for a perfect wedding

    Staff were great and always available to answer any queries we had prior to our big day, manager was amazing and made sure to facilitate to all our needs. Our day ran smoothly, food was yummy and was able to cater to our guests who had dietary requirements also allowing us access to the rooms the night before to be able to decorate was an added bonus! Thank you Ivy

    Best experience ever

    I got married here last week. What can I say. Venue is gorgeous and the staff simply amazing. Nothing was to much trouble and libby and the team made my wedding more than I ever thought it could be. Bridal suite is stunning as is the rest of the rooms. If I could marry again there this week I would

    Excellent Service

    What a amazing venue. Beautiful place for a Wedding. I truly hope we are invited to another function here. The every aspect of this place is simply beautiful. Food was amazing, service even better but nothing beats the ambiance of the place
