Saphia Sent on 03/06/2025A magical weekend at a magical venue
Wilde Lodge was the most incredible venue for our wedding. It was the perfect balance of romantic and relaxed and allowed us to host our guests for a whole weekend. On every side of the lodge are sweeping beautiful views and within the grounds there are so many areas that you can use. The versatility of the space is amazing, having the open barn, safari tent, lawns and long barn almost make it feel like you are stepping into a new venue at each part of the day. The different spaces also mean it is fantastic whatever the weather. With a May wedding, this was really important to us and gave us the peace of mind that our wedding would be weatherproof!
The two barns have so much natural charm and beauty that you need minimal added decor which is amazing and the safari tent is a perfect canvas to put your stamp on and personalise your wedding. Having the house to stay in was brilliant and you really felt like it was your home for the weekend. It made getting ready really easy as there was so much space and no travel to have to think about on the day. We also had the glamping village so our guests could stay on site which was so much fun and made the wedding a full weekend event. We used the big BBQ and lawns to host a party on the Sunday too, complete with a full game of rounders on their rounders pitch.
The team were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make our day special. They genuinely enjoyed the day, got involved with the guests and made us feel like VIPs. They even left us a message in our guest book! Having a wedding coordinator was invaluable and Jess was incredible. She was efficient, ran her team like a dream and handled absolutely everything so we could get the most out of our day. Jess is clearly so passionate about weddings and is a fountain of knowledge. In the lead up she was on hand to answer any questions and we always looked forward to our scheduled calls to talk through and plan the day, as well as getting us so excited for it all.
We absolutely loved our Wilde Lodge Wedding and it was the best weekend of our lives!

Claire Sent on 31/05/2025A hidden gem!! Perfect venue
Wilde Lodge is an absolute hidden gem! We had our wedding day in late May and the venue was rural, intimate and idyllic. There’s space to sleep 16 onsite with plenty options of accommodation for our guests in villages and towns within 5-10 mins drive.
Jess our wedding coordinator was truly exceptional, with regular video calls from 12 months out, we were supported and gently guided through the whole wedding process. On the weekend itself Jess (who already had a great rapport with most of our vendors) worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make the day feel seamless. She’s so passionate about her work and making sure your whole experience is personal and tailored. All the staff working over the weekend were highly attuned to our needs and we received incredible hospitality. Our guests commented at how amazing the venue and the staff had been throughout our day.
A massive benefit of this venue is having the place over the whole weekend as standard. As well as the ability to extend celebrations, we got quality time with our closest friends and family that stayed in the house with us. We have memories through Friday, Saturday morning and Sunday that we treasure just as much as our big day. Many venues we looked at require you to leave early the next day after your wedding, you’ll be exhausted (and probably hungover) so waking up with bacon sandwiches and debrief of the day before was perfect.
We couldn’t recommend this venue and the amazing staff enough. Thank you for making our wedding better than we ever could have imagined!Wilde Lodge's reply:
Thank you so so much for your kind words Claire & Tom it was an absolute pleasure having you & your lovely friends & family at Wilde Lodge for your beautiful wedding weekend! Jess x -

Abi Sent on 07/06/2025Stunning location, sensational staff, unforgettable
Wilde Lodge is a simply stunning venue. Every space is beautiful and needs little dressing. Having the place to yourselves for the whole weekend makes it very special and they really encourage you to make yourself at home. Gorgeous views aside, what makes Wilde Lodge really special is the staff. Nothing is too big of an ask. They are responsive, beyond helpful and provide a service which is very unique. Everyone pitches in to help dress the venue and get you ready for the day. It was like a big family that we didn't want to leave.Wilde Lodge's reply:
What a treat to read your review, Abi & Aaron! We loved having you with us and are so glad Wilde Lodge could be part of your story x -

Incredible Venue & Team
Highly recommend the venue & team at Wilde Lodge for anyone's wedding (big or small). If you are considering... definitely book!!
Throughout the entire process the Wilde Lodge team were exceptional.
Thanks to them we managed to book & plan our wedding in 5 weeks. A particular mention to Hannah (our coordinator aka "brides best friend") because she was just fantastic in the weeks leading up to the big day. We had regular catch up via Teams (as we lived 2 hours away). Nothing was too much trouble and she completely put our minds at ease every time we spoke. Even between our catch ups all our email queries were dealt with really quickly by the team.
The day itself was perfect. Despite the weather not being on our side (we'd planned an outdoor ceremony), Hannah was well organised with the back up plan ready to go, which actually turned out to be better than the origional idea. All the staff were really friendly and made our guests feel welcome & at ease. All the small details were thought of and taken care of before you had a chance to worry about them (like the groom forgetting to put on his boutonniere).
Still getting wonderful comments from our guests about how much they enjoyed the day, how stunning the venue is & how helpful the staff were.
Bonus... it's also dog friendly.
Thanks so much Wilde Lode.
We will be back to visit soon

Alex Sent on 18/09/2024Stunning rural wedding venue
We had our amazing day in August, at the stunning wilde lodge.
Wilde lodge was local to us so made sense for us to go to an open day. We were blown away by the stunning backdrop, and fell in love with the stunning ceremony location of the Long Barn. We had to book it. We also loved the fact that we could get the venue for the whole weekend meaning family from further afield could stay and making the whole process stress free. The fact we could set up the day before also meant we spent the morning of our wedding focused on us.
Jess our wedding coordinator was fantastic from start to finish. Not only was she simply lovely, she was easy to talk to and any questions we had she answered quickly. During the day she was always on hand, helping organise everything, being super reassuring, and providing much needed pina coladas.
A few amazing extras they have at Wilde Lodge also topped it off for us. Our dog was there on the day which a lot of venues don't allow. Jess even helped up put her harness on. They have a stunning Landrover to take you for photos which was amazing in it's own right. The bar staff were also stellar and just so lovely, making our own custom cocktails.
Many thanks,
Mr and Mrs Griffiths

Dream Venue and Dream Team for the perfect rustic wedding.
Wilde Lodge was the absolute dream venue for our perfect day, and it went down as perfectly as we could have imagined!
The space in the long barn for the ceremony and the safari tent for the wedding breakfast was ideal for our wedding of 70 people.
We also used the Lodge and bell tents for our close family which all worked so well
All the extra activities and seating areas are fantastic and meant our wedding guests could spread out and relax.
Jemma made us feel so welcome and at home at the Lodge when we viewed to venue a year before the wedding and myself, my husband and our two small children all agreed immediately that we were going to get married there!!
Hannah and her team went above and beyond on the day of the wedding for us behind the scenes making the day run smoothly. And on the run up to the wedding Hannah (our wedding coordinator from Wilde Lodge) had regular video calls with us to cover all bases and make sure the day ran perfectly for us.
We would 100% recommend Wilde Lodge to everyone and so well uld all of our guests!
Thank you so much Wilde Lodge team. XxxWilde Lodge's reply:
Thank you for your wonderful review Pippa & Andy :) Jemma, Hannah and the whole team at Wilde Lodge x -

Rhiannon Sent on 25/09/2024Everything we wanted and more!
From the moment we saw Wilde Lodge online we knew it was the venue for us. You can personalise the day and relax knowing that the team would understand your vision and bring it to life (Jess - ❤️) We felt so comfortable here, our family and friends are still talking about how perfect it was. The grounds are perfect and no request is too much. The team worked seamlessly with our suppliers and were on hand for all our needs - from a quick glass of water before the ceremony to decorating with us on Friday.Wilde Lodge's reply:
Thank you Rhiannon & Tim, it was a pleasure and so lovely getting to know you & your amazing family! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness together, Jess & the team at Wilde Lodge -
