    Amazing day

    From the initial sight I fell in love with south farm as a venue. After meeting with the staff it solidified that this was the venue for us.
    Their attention to detail and care is amazing.
    The communication from them was great and very clear and I always felt I knew what was happening!
    On the day we had Helen who was so attentive ensuring we were okay all day and grabbing anything we needed.
    She ensured that the day ran on time which I was very thankful for as I had no clue what time of day it was!
    She took care of not only us but all the guests during our time there.
    The food was amazing and we received many compliments about the staff and food from the venue.
    Thank you very much for making our day go exactly how we had envisioned.
    If you want a venue that the staff love there jobs and care about everything they do I would recommend south farm!

    The best experience ever!!!

    South Farm were absolutely incredible. The venue is so stunning and such a fun place for guests with all of the animals about. The help in planning the big day was fantastic and ensured that nothing was missed, we would have forgotten so many details without the guidance from the South Farm staff. On the day of the wedding, the staff are so unbelievably professional and guide you through everything that's happening and make sure to give you as the couple moments alone to enjoy the day together.
    And the biggest bonus of all, the new Apple Shed for the bridal party to get ready in. It is gorgeous and relieves any stress of having to travel the morning of the wedding. Getting ready in there was such a dream and made the morning so special.
    100/10 - would recommend to everyone!!!

    We Loved South Farm

    From start to finish, South Farm were an absolute dream to work with for our wedding. From the moment we visited during an open day, we knew it was the venue for us and booked there and then.

    Every interaction leading up to the day - from the taster evenings to discussing all the finer details -  was handled with such professionalism, warmth and care. The team were always incredibly responsive, organised and genuinely lovely to deal with.

    On the wedding day itself, everything ran seamlessly. The team were so accommodating and made the entire day feel effortless and completely magical. It truly was perfect, and we only wish we could do it all over again.
    We couldn’t recommend South Farm more highly.

    Rowena & Ben

    The most perfect wedding venue!

    A truly amazing venue for the most perfect wedding!! We could not have been happier with our wedding day last week. Everything was perfect from all of the spaces and grounds to the food and service! We first visited south farm 4+ years ago when we first got engaged and have been in love with the venue ever since!! We would like to thank everyone at South Farm for being amazing, with a special thank you to Helen, our coordinator. Helen ensured that the day ran smoothly and everything was perfect for us and our guests! We were due to get married in the summer house but due to the rain were unable to, Helen was so helpful in explaining how to day would now run as we would be getting married in the old dairy and also came up with multiple options regarding the group photos and confetti walk depending on the weather after the ceremony. Over all we wouldn’t change a thing and will recommend south farm to everyone so that we can visit this amazing venue again!

    South Farm's reply:

    Hi Lucy, What a lovely review to read! Helen was delighted to be there for you on your wedding day and we are pleased that you were able to make the most of the spaces that we have here at South Farm. What a lovely picture at the front of the house! We hope to see you again sometime soon. With love and best wishes, The South Farm Team x

    Best Day of Our Lives!

    From our first viewing at South Farm, we were just blown away by how beautiful it was, the whole place is maintained to a high standard, even the animals are all kept beautifully and make the whole place feel full of life while also giving that tranquil countryside feel. We were always welcomed with warmth and smiles from all the staff who are generally happy to see you. They clearly love the work that they do too which makes a huge impact on service and experience. We were never made to feel like any of our requests were not reasonable and the staff were so attentive, responded quickly to any questions we had and always went above and beyond to accommodate us.

    We decided to stay the night of our tasting evening in the very comfortable onsite accommodation so that we could get more of a feel for being there. The food is 10/10 and the English breakfast in the morning was also fantastic, complemented by South Farm's very own fresh apple and orange juices. An eco-conscious venue and they use a lot of their own produce grown onsite, everything is so fresh and delicious.

    Our wedding day, what a day! All the planning we had done together up to the morning of our wedding was executed perfectly on the day by Nikki, our event manager and the rest of the team at South Farm, there are no words to explain how special we felt. They were all so attentive to my husband and I, our bridal party, our family and our guests, throughout the duration of our day. The day flowed seamlessly and the SF team made it feel effortless. It was truly magical and we just felt overwhelmed with love. We were so relaxed as we knew it was all taken care of.

    There was so much delicious food to choose from and flexibility on how you would like it served. One of the non-negotiables for us was delicious food and to say that SF delivered is an understatement! The portions were extremely generous, and all our guests commented on how fantastic the food was, even the suppliers that we provided meals for were blown away by the options they were served.

    If you want the most magical day at a stunning modern eco-friendly farmhouse venue and are deciding whether to choose South Farm, my advice would be book it quick before you lose your preferred date! We are extremely grateful to Nikki and all the staff at South Farm; we could not have imagined a better day and will cherish the memories that were made here forever.

    South Farm's reply:

    Hi Lisa, Thank you for taking the time to leave us such an AMAZING review! It has been such a pleasure planning your wedding and we love that you were able to enjoy each element of your wedding from the food, to the friendly staff and our sustainability! We wish you all the best for the future and a long, happy marriage. With love, the South Farm Team x

    Perfect venue and a perfect day!

    We truly couldn't have asked for a more wonderful day, and the team at South Farm helped make that happen.

    We fell in love with the venue from the moment we visited, and the team immediately helped us to envision our perfect day. All throughout, we really felt like the team were making sure we had the day that we wanted, and thought about every detail - including ones we hadn't even considered.

    All the staff at South Farm are incredibly friendly and truly took our thoughts, preferences and desires into consideration to help put together a day that was truly special and perfect. Our guests are still raving about how lovely the venue was and how delicious the food was.

    If we could have our wedding day all over again, we would pick South Farm in a heartbeat!

    South Farm's reply:

    Dear Aliyah, Thank you for taking the time to leave such lovely words for us! We pride ourselves in being a friendly and approachable team, going above and beyond for our wonderful couples! We wish you the very best for the future in married life. With love and best wishes, The SF Team x

    The most perfect venue!

    Thank you for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Not only is South Farm beautiful at every angle, but every member of the team goes above and beyond in making it the best day for their couples.
    It was a pleasure working with a venue who keeps everything so organised and transparent, planning our wedding here really couldn't have been any smoother. All of the office team were happy to help on any enquiries throughout the process. Shout out to Emily and Nikki for helping tie everything together in the final weeks.
    Hayley was our coordinator on the day and she was an incredible presence. Her kindness, excitement and professionalism were just some of her qualities which shone throughout. She kept the day running smoothly and efficiently. Thank you, Hayley!
    We knew South farm was fantastic but it's also been a pleasure to hear excellent feedback from our guests. The food and dinner service was brilliant with everyone enjoying their meals, South Farm also made exceptional efforts to accommodate guests with food allergies which was a lovely touch.
    We really wish we could do it all again. Thank you South Farm!

    South Farm's reply:

    Hello Julia, We are so pleased to hear that you had a positive experience with all of the team throughout the wedding planning process and on the big day itself! We hope you have a long and happy marriage and visit us again sometime in the future! With love and best wishes, The South Farm Team x

    Perfect wedding at South Farm

    My husband and I recently got married at South Farm and we had the most amazing experience.

    The venue is gorgeous and even on a drizzly day in January it looked stunning.

    Prior to choosing South Farm we had looked at quite a few other venues but we just didn’t feel that instant connection - South Farm was different and as soon as we’d viewed it we knew it was the one!

    Nikki, our event manager, was amazing on the lead up to the wedding and on the day and nothing felt rushed. Any questions we had were answered straight away, she was always there when we needed her and she made us feel at ease.

    The food was incredible and all our of guests complimented it (we had the hot buffet).

    We bought a lot of our own decor but the venue comes with lots of lovely plants, fairy lights and little touches which mean you don’t have to worry about getting a huge amount of decor.

    Accommodation was great, very clean and comfy and the campers / wagon bathrooms were the best we had seen for campers!!

    DJ Gary bought so much energy to the dance floor and played banger after banger.

    We had a tasty full English the day after the wedding as well. It was my mums birthday and without us asking, they bought out a little brownie with a candle in which was lovely and shows how much thought goes into any decision.

    We would highly recommend South Farm and we really hope we can return as wedding guests in the future!

    South Farm's reply:

    Dear Hannah & Aaron, What wonderful pictures - especially love the one with our little piggies! Nikki loved being there to support you on your wedding day. We pride ourselves in being 'Distinctly Different' and it is the personal touches that make each wedding day equally as special and unique. We wish you a lifetime of happiness together and hope to see you again at South Farm in the future. Love Team SF x

    Fantastic wedding venue, cannot recommend enough

    South Farm were very professional, friendly and welcoming with us from the get go. We were treated warmly by the staff at all times, and they all knew what they were doing. We appreciated they always had good advice for us when planning the wedding, but never forced us to do things a certain way. They were very flexible when we talked about what we wanted for the wedding, and suggested what rooms we could use, and what could be done in between to make sure everything worked out well timing wise.

    A special shout out goes to their kitchen staff who make some of the best food we have ever eaten. The hog roast buffet was incredible and there was lots of choice in what food we could have served. Every member of staff was very polite and went out of their way to make our lives easier, especially our event manager for the day, Evie, who was delightful to work with.

    Only one thing to note when planning, they are not able to set up any decorations on the morning before our church service so we did have to find some friends to do it at short notice.

    While planning with them, replies to emails always came fast, we never felt like we had to chase about anything. The accommodation was very nice and clean, and felt reasonably priced. In addition the clearing down was taken care of by night staff so we didn't have to do any of it. Everything was arranged out for us in the morning with flowers still on tables for breakfast! It was something very special.

    South Farm's reply:

    Hi Julie, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the Hog Roast and felt that the team were polite and easy to work with on the day. Congratulations again from all of us at South Farm and we wish you the very best for the future. Best wishes, Team SF x

    Stunning venue - thank you to an amazing team

    South Farm gave us everything we could have wanted for our wedding day. We had shopped around to try and make the day of our dreams happen but were immediately impressed by South Farm's extremely transparent prices and packages. We went for a package that suited us and were amazed. The team are super communicative, always happy to help and answer questions and were really flexible, allowing us to DIY a lot of our wedding. Shame you only get to do it once, we would want another day at South Farm again in a heartbeat!

    South Farm's reply:

    Dear Izzi,
    Thank you for taking the time to leave a glowing review for us. We pride ourselves in having a friendly and approachable team so it is lovely to hear that this was your experience also! We thoroughly enjoyed the planning process with you and wish you a long and happy marriage. All the best, the SF team x
