Gemma Sent on 04/12/2024The most amazing wedding day!
We cannot thank The Bay Tree Hotel and their Wedding & Events coordinator Laura enough for making our wedding day so incredibly special. From the very first meeting, their enthusiasm and communication was great. Laura kept us updated throughout the entire planning process, answering all our questions and guiding us through every decision with patience and professionalism.
We felt so special on our day, the staff were so attentive to myself and my toddler at breakfast before the ceremony and all throughout our stay and our visits to them beforehand. Laura's attention to detail was amazing. She had so many thoughtful touches that made the day even more memorable - from a glass of Prosecco she had ready for us after the ceremony through to picking out such fun Halloween-inspired sweets for our sweet table that our guests loved.
The venue is beautiful, we were lucky with sunshine in late October but there would be plenty of photo opportunities even if we couldn't make it outside. The day ran seamlessly, guests were guided where they needed to be and the hotel atmosphere was exactly what we had wanted for our day.
What really stood out to us was how fantastic the hotel and whole team were to work with - everyone we spoke to was helpful and kind. Laura was always approachable, calm, and genuinely happy to do anything she could to make our day perfect. Whether it was last-minute requests or adjustments, Laura handled everything with a smile.
We could not recommend The Bay Tree Hotel and Laura enough! -

The Bay Tree Hotel was the first venue we viewed and we fell in love with it from the start. The opportunity for exclusive use as well as the wonderful gardens and layout made it a clear winner for the wedding we wanted. From the moment we started planning with Laura, through all our consultations and the day itself it was such a relaxed experience. Every member of staff at the Bay Tree has been wonderful and so welcoming of us having our big day at the hotel. With so many of our guests being from overseas as well as not from the Cotswolds, we wanted a beautiful spring wedding and had just that.
We would especially like to thank Laura who guided us through the planning of the day as well as the on the day wedding coordination. It was lovely working with her and the wider team who made the day so wonderful. We were lucky enough to be able to stay in the hotel the night before our wedding and the customer service from then until our departure was impeccable. Nothing was too much trouble from storing boxes of decorations, chocolates in the cellar so they wouldn’t melt and organising an early room service breakfast for me on the morning so I could completely relax took all the stress away.
Overall we and our families and friends had the most wonderful stay at the hotel and the wedding was unforgettable. Our guests have all commented on how seamless everything was and how relaxed and comfortable they all felt. The day was really geared around us and celebrating with our loved ones and we couldn’t thank the Bay Tree enough for this. We would recommend the Bay Tree and the team to anyone looking to have their wedding in the Cotswolds. -

We recently had our wedding at The Bay Tree Hotel, and we can honestly say it was the most amazing day of our lives. From start to finish, everything was perfect – the venue is absolutely stunning, full of charm and character, and created the most beautiful setting for our special day.
What truly set The Bay Tree apart, though, was the incredible staff. Every single member of the team went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly and that we and our guests felt completely looked after. Nothing was too much trouble, and their professionalism and warmth didn’t go unnoticed.
Further to the staff, their wedding fayre led to us finding a dream team of suppliers and seeing them work in the space and the staff on the put us completely at ease. I can't not say anything about the food! Our guests won't stop talking about it, and quite honestly the menu tasting was easily the best part about planning. All of our wedding guests travelled to the wedding and being able to use the exclusive use package took a lot of stress off of our plate!
A special shout out goes to Laura, the wedding coordinator, who was simply outstanding. Her support throughout the planning process was invaluable – she was always responsive, and thoughtful, and helped us figure out the logistics of special requests and ideas. Her attention to detail ensured everything came together just perfectly on the day. Laura genuinely cares, and it showed in everything she did. We couldn't have asked for a better person to guide us through it all.
We are so grateful to everyone at The Bay Tree Hotel for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime. If you're considering this venue for your wedding, don’t hesitate – you’ll be in the best hands. -

Perfect Wedding at the Bay Tree Hotel!
We held our Wedding Ceremony and Reception at the Bay Tree Hotel on a Thursday in late August.
Wow, what a venue! Beautiful spaces, elegant and classy but great value compared to many we looked at. The hotel is beautiful inside and out. The food was excellent; we choose the Beef - yum! The staff were exceptional, they really seemed to enjoy making our day so special. The guest rooms were all lovely and the other rooms are gorgeous, especially once decorate for our event. We didn’t need to go mad on flowers because there is already so much beauty in the rooms. A big thank you goes to Laura who is the wedding coordinator; from the start she made us feel like we were in capable hands, as shown by the final event. Every one of our guests said what a magical day and night it was. We wouldn’t change anything and couldn’t recommend the venue more highly! -
