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!

Hayley Sent on 01/09/2026Amazing from start to finish!
We fell in love with Wilde Lodge from our very first visit and it lived up to all our expectations and more on our wedding day!
Phoebe was so lovely throughout the planning process and on the day, we were made to feel right at home and like nothing was too much trouble.
All the staff were so lovely and the venue is absolutely stunning!
You can tell Jemma really puts a lot of thought into everything and cares about making it feel like the true countryside gem it is.
The landscape, lodge, barns and all spaces within the grounds are so beautiful and all of our guests were amazed by the venue.
We can’t thank the Wilde Lodge team enough for making our dream wedding come true, we didn’t want to leave!

Jemma Sent on 13/08/2026The most wonderful place
Wilde Lodge is a really special venue, working in the industry myself, I visit a lot of venues and nothing compares.
The views are incredible, from all areas of the site. We got married on the hill, between two large trees, with the team setting up the wooden benches where we'd requested. The micro bars are great for allowing you to choose where you'd like your drinks reception, we had ours on the front lawn. It was such a great vibe, with the half canopy up for sun coverage. We placed the lawn furniture around the outside, creating a great backdrop for our photos and speeches at the end of the lawn. We made use of the games supplied, tug of war was great!!
The staff are incredibly nice and polite, they're chilled but also on it and professional. Phoebe, your main go to is something else, I always felt like I could reach out to her and ask small questions without feeling silly - she really will make the whole experience a thousand times better, she's so so nice too!
We loved how you can decorate the space how you like, we put chiffon up in the tent the day before, creating a gorg candlelit evening. The open sides to the tent make for a perfect evening, our band was playing but everyone sat outside still felt included. The open barn is another great space, our guests had their welcome drinks there, we also used it after the wedding breakfast for a few hours, with our roaming band, table tennis and badminton also in play.
If you're looking for a relaxed and beautiful place to get married, this is the one for you -

Ashley Sent on 10/08/2026A special venue ✨
Wilde Lodge is truly a magical place - from the tree lined driveway to the rolling hills surrounding it and enormous amount of bird life! As a wedding venue Wilde Lodge has lots of different spaces you can use and they give you the flexibility to be creative and use them how you want. The team are amazing - especially Phoebe who helped us throughout the whole process and was on hand the whole weekend, and helped with every random request with a smile! All of our guests commented on how nice absolutely everyone who worked there was, Freya and Jemima were especially brilliant in helping us set up the day before too. Overall would 100% recommend Wilde Lodge to anyone, especially if you’re looking for something other than the standard out of the box wedding venue. -

How do you write a review to describe the amazing venue where we spent the best weekend of our lives…perfect just doesn’t cut it.
From the moment we found Wilde Lodge, we were supported by the wonderful wedding coordinator Jess. When we visited the venue and met Jess, we felt instantly at ease, inspired and knew this was the place we could plan a wedding exactly the way we wanted it in beautiful surroundings.
The flexibility we had to plan and execute our wedding was amazing but we could always fall back on guidance if needed. Jess was great at offering advice and recommending vendors who were all fantastic.
Our wedding weekend was out of this world, the rustic vibe of the place in the beautiful countryside with our own unique stamp of decoration and style (summer festival). It wasn’t just a wedding but a rare chance to spend a whole weekend with our nearest and dearest celebrating and spending quality time; we had 46 guests on site the whole weekend split between the lodge and awesome tent village provided by Hels Bels. These opportunities don’t come around very often and we made the most of it, such fun.
We had children onsite and they were so safe and content in the surroundings, they were also living their best life.
All my friends and family were blown away by their experience and the atmosphere, we all simply had the best time.
The quality and comfort of the lodge, facilities and the fabulous service from the concierge team over the weekend were second-to-none, nothing was too much to ask. We also loved the flexibility of the different options within venue for the ceremony, meal, party and just hanging out; the barn, open barn, safari tent and of course the lovely outdoor space.
Looking at videos and photos of our weekend gives us a wonderful feeling and a realisation that we had exactly the wedding we wanted, just how we imagined when we first saw Wilde Lodge. The venue and style of support allowed us to achieve that.
I really can’t say enough positive things…just awesome.Wilde Lodge's reply:
Thank you so so much Max & Matt, it was truly a magical weekend and we are over the moon that it was everything you dreamed of :) We really appreciate your kind words! x -

Sophie Sent on 12/09/2025The day of our dreams!
Wilde Lodge is the perfect venue for so many reasons. The location is breath taking, the lodge is beautiful with so many different spaces to use, and the option of staying the night before with our nearest and dearest was something so special that we will treasure forever. But, the staff are really the cherry on top. Nothing was too much trouble. From planning with Jess to our day with Emma, everyone worked so hard to make sure we had the day of our dreams. We couldn’t have asked for a friendlier team. Our guests had a blast, and they have been so complimentary of the venue and staff. We would do it all over again if we could and will re-live the day in our heads for a very long time.
Wilde Lodge's reply:
Aw guys this means everything to us!! Thank you for taking the time to share your lovely words, we absolutely loved being a part of your amazing wedding x -

Ryan Sent on 23/08/2025An incredible Venue.
We had the most incredible wedding at Wilde Lodge in Knighton, Powys. From start to finish, everything about this venue felt magical and completely stress-free.
Our ceremony took place in the beautiful Long Barn, followed by drinks on the lawn with the most stunning views. Guests enjoyed an amazing meal in the Safari Tent, and the evening ended in the most relaxed way, gathered around the firepits with family and friends.
The staff were outstanding. and Jess, our wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. She made the whole experience, from booking through to the big day, completely effortless for us, and we couldn’t be more grateful.
One of the things we loved most was having the venue for the whole weekend (Friday to Monday), which gave us time to really soak it all in and enjoy it with our loved ones. Being able to bring our two dogs along made it feel even more personal and special.
If you’re looking for a wedding venue that combines breathtaking scenery, a relaxed atmosphere, and the most supportive team, we can’t recommend Wilde Lodge enough.Wilde Lodge's reply:
Thank you so much for your wonderful review Ryan & Niamh! We’re thrilled to hear that your wedding at Wilde Lodge felt magical and completely stress-free. It was such a joy having you, your family, friends, Bella & Tess here! Wishing you both all the happiness in the world as you start this new chapter together, and we hope Wilde Lodge will always hold a special place in your hearts! xxx -

Piera Sent on 13/08/2025A magical venue for our Wedding!
When we first drove down the tree lined lane towards the Wilde Lodge venue we knew we had found somewhere special! Tucked away in the rolling welsh hills, Wilde Lodge was the perfect location for our chill & intimate countryside wedding. We particularly loved the venues relaxed vibe but with all the support from an experienced wedding team! With the help of the staff at Wilde Lodge, in particular Jess, we were able to create a wedding day that felt so true to us as a couple, with the flexibility to curate every little detail uniquely to our tastes and the freedom to incorporate many DIY elements.
We were blown away with how helpful the staff at Wilde Lodge were. Form helping us upon arrival the evening before unloading and setting up decor to the non-stop work throughout the day of our wedding, making sure everything went to plan, brining our vision for the day to life.
The staff took care of so many jobs for us making the day stress free and so enjoyable! Emma our co-ordinator for the day was a delight to work with, going out of her way to make sure everything ran smoothly on the day and that our guests had the best experience. All the guests commented on how great the staff were and how smoothly the day went, with even stewards meeting guests at their cars upon arrival with umbrellas once it started to rain!
The in-house catering by CSons was also a highlight of the day, with a delicious and unique menu selection we were able to organise through the venue, making the wedding planning stage that much more hassle free.
We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day, thank you to Wildelodge and all their staff for making it just so!
