    Our Wedding Day

    Wow Swiss Gardens what a venue to get married in, we tied the knot on 5th September 2024 and what an experience from start to finish. From meeting our wedding co-ordinator Georgia. To the team working on the day we’re such a delight. It went amazing but just so quick, we would definite recommend anyone to marry here and would love to re-cap it over again. Thank you

    Everything and more!

    Our wedding day was even more than we had expected. The calmness on the day was amazing with Georgia's oversight on every aspect of catering, cake and flower deliveries, as well as orchestrating the whole event, even putting on our button holes. The venue was simply beautiful with superb grounds for photo's, but my husband and I can honestly not praise Georgia enough for all the support leading up to our special day and her commitment on the day to make it a truly amazing experience with a real wow factor.

    What a day..

    From start to finish our wedding was seamless!
    Georgia is absolutely amazing, she is an asset to shuttleworth. No request is too much and her attention to detail is something else.
    The house and grounds have made amazing photographs!
    If you are looking for a stately home venue, this is the best around by far!

    Perfect venue with gorgeous grounds and a stunning house!

    The venue was perfect - stunning mansion house surrounded by gorgeous green parkland. We had an outdoor ceremony so that our lovely doggo could be our ring bearer! Georgia at Shuttleworth helped us plan the most perfect day over the last year, answering all our many questions and ensuring everything ran smoothly! The venue has space for people to stay on-site too, and accommodated all of our family and wedding party to stay on-site comfortably! It felt like a giant sleepover! Absolutely nothing I would change, and look forward to visiting the beautiful venue again for our anniversaries!

    Just Perfect!

    Georgia and her colleagues were great from start to finish, kept everyone calm and informed. Beautiful location and they even organised perfect weather! Would highly recommend.

    Perfect wedding venue

    The Swiss Cottage at Shuttleworth was perfect for our ceremony. The team were so organised, professional and friendly meaning we could have a fun, carefree day that ran perfectly. The Swiss gardens were perfect for photos with plenty of different areas for memorable shots. We would definitely recommend Shuttleworth as a venue.

    Would not recommend for a wedding

    Booked Shuttleworth for our wedding as we thought it looked beautiful and read other reviews online, and really enjoyed visiting. Just over 2 months before the wedding date, they email to say they have accepted a c.4000 person corporate event booking next to the main house (which we had exclusivity of) on the same day so we would be impacted. Contractually they get away with it as you obviously don't have exclusivity of the entire 4500 acre estate. What they don't tell you upfront however is that they're only allowed to use a tiny portion of this land for events and it's all next to each other so you will get disturbance from multiple events on the same day (excluding the Hangars/where the planes are). Shuttleworth management said it has happened many times before (i.e. multiple events in parallel) and disturbance to a wedding can happen as they are a multi event site, which is not what we were told when booking. They acknowledged our wedding would be impacted by this corporate booking- our videographer said our video would be ruined noise wise (the corporate event had live music, fair ground rides, a ferris wheel, a PA system, food trucks etc, a stones throw away from where we would have been), let alone it being an eyesore which you could see from where we had planned to have our wedding breakfast. Our wedding became collateral damage to this corporate event so we cancelled. Georgia (Wedding Manager) and Rhys did not apologise and we found their conduct to be highly disappointing. Could not recommend this venue (despite being picturesque) in good faith on the basis that contractually they can (and are happy) to ruin an existing wedding booking they have (and at such short notice too) with noisy, eyesore multiple events on site - hardly the peaceful exclusive venue they market themselves to be.

    Beautiful venue, professional and kind staff.

    Georgia French and her team ensured that my wife and I had the most amazing day of our life. Everything was thoroughly planned and delivered exactly as we envisaged. Georgia was very kind and accommodating of our requests and the venue was nothing short of magnificent.

    The team was also very helpful and supportive the day before the wedding and the day after, which allowed me and my family to enjoy our stay at the House. We’ve visited several castles and venues with historic beauty to choose our wedding venue, and I can honestly say that hardly any would offer you what the Shuttleworth House and the team running have.

    A Hidden Gem!

    From the moment we booked Shuttleworth as our wedding venue, Georgia and all the team were so incredibly helpful. Having the whole house for our venue was amazing and enabled us to zone the different areas of the house. Shuttleworth is beautiful on the inside and outside and when rain was forecast for our ceremony, having the ceremony indoors was just as Romantic. We had our wedding breakfast in the saloon which is breathtaking and many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was. It seems to be a hidden gem as most venue's you only get one or two rooms. We had an incredible day and cannot wait to see our official photos! If you're thinking of considering Shuttleworth for your special day, we would highly recommend!
