  Excellent!

  We wouldn't choose anywhere else to have our wedding. The Dower House was the first venue in that we looked at and were blown away straight away.
  Carolyn from the first time we met was warm, welcoming, a great listener, excellent communication and understood what we were hoping to achieve for our big day. Through-out the planning Carolyn was responsive and always there to answer all questions that we had.
  On the big day, all the staff were exemplary! The day went so smoothly, we loved it!! We must mention the food....oh my ...the FOOD! Delish!
  
  We highly recommend the Dower House, its beautiful setting and wonderful team make it just the best day, we cant thank them enough!
  
  Elizabeth and Mike

  Brilliant wedding

  From the moment we booked our wedding, the team at The Dower House were superb. All aspects of our reception were planned thoughtfully and with great attention to detail. On the day itself, the staff were marvellous - all friendly, attentive to our needs, and able to adapt to changes with the weather and timings. The food was excellent - our guests have kept commenting on both the quality and generosity of the courses. We had the best day imaginable at The Dower House, and very much recommend it as a wedding venue.

  The best wedding day we could have hoped for

  Our original wedding date was 6.02.2020. We had changed our date 3 times over the 2 years, and even though staff and management had changed over this time. The quality of service and the flexibility the Dower house showed us was amazing. The dower house was the first venue we looked around in 2019 when looking for a wedding venue, and we straight away fell in love for the place. It is the perfect size venue and a beautiful setting for a wedding. The food is top quality, and uses local produce and suppliers. The rooms are beautiful, and the lodge has a separate room which is great for the bridal party to get ready in, full length mirrors and hair and make up stations. Our day was managed so well, and we felt completely at ease and looked after from the pre planning stages to the day after the wedding. Everything was managed perfectly. The staff are friendly helpful and excellent people. There genuinely isn't enough i could say to do the venue justice, it is just simply fantastic and if you are planning a wedding i urge you to look at this venue.

  Very flexible and excellent communication

  Our wedding has moved 3 times, during the Covid-19 pandemic and even though it is still a year off for us, we have been put at ease and it's never been a problem moving our date. The response times have been great, and I am confident they will provide us the best experience when our day comes.

  Highly Recommend!

  The wedding coordinator was fantastic. She was nothing but helpful and quick to respond to any queries before the day. On the day the staff were helpful, friendly, and couldn't have been more spot on with everything. The venue was set up beautifully before hand and the staff were nothing but friendly and polite.
  
  I would recommend this place to anyone that is planning their special day.

  Postponement of our wedding

  The Dower House, and Carolyn and Peter in particular, have been amazingly supportive over the last year and our two wedding date postponements. It's been so disappointing for us both, but Carolyn couldn't have done any more to make sure that when it does happen, it will be a weekend to remember. We can't wait to finally tie the knot at the Dower House in May 2022.

  Thank you Julie, that's lovely of you to say! It's been a very disappointing time, but next year will make up for it for sure! Can't wait for your wedding weekend!

  Amazing 10/10

  We chose to have our wedding here because its in a beautiful location, the room for the reception is fantastic and there are plenty of rooms for all the guests! Sadly we had to postpone (twice) due to coronavirus but the Dower House (especially Carolyn, the wedding planner) couldn't have been better: nothing was too much trouble for them with the planning or the postponing, they helped us with everything, they are very thorough with all the details so you have it exactly as you want and put our minds at ease throughout. We know we have chosen a perfect place for our wedding and can't wait for the day!

  Beautiful Intimate Wedding Venue

  We had our very short notice, small wedding here and everything was beautiful. Everyone commented on how good the food was and nothing was too much trouble. The setting is lovely and we were lucky with the weather and got married outside. Thank you to everyone at The Dower House who helped make our day special.
