Reviews for Sandhole Oak Barn
The most beautiful wedding venue ever! Absolutely beautiful and what dreams are made of!
The perfect wedding venue!!
The service they provided all the way through our wedding planning, but especially on our wedding day was exceptional. Everybody was so warm and friendly and they couldn't have been more helpful in making sure our wedding day went without a hitch!
Sandhole Oak Barn was the perfect venue for us with the incredible lake and oak barn along with enough accommodation to host all of our family. We had so many compliments from all of our guests on the beautiful setting and they really have everything you could need for an incredible wedding day all in one place.
Thank you to all of Sandhole Team for making our day so special!
Beautiful Venue - an absolute dream
From every open day, and opportunity to see the venue again we took it in a heartbeat. We were lucky enough in January to see the venue during snow. Whilst this would not have been my preferred time of year to get married it looked so stunning even in the cold months of winter. Added some photos below of our winter day visit!
Our guests commented highly on the standard of the venue and its grounds. Some describing our wedding as the best wedding they had ever attended. What an amazing compliment that was and we have Sandhole oak barn and caterers top table to thank for making it such a memorable day for not only myself and my husband but every single guest that attended.
The rooms were promptly made up for everyone’s arrival. Early check in was granted for our parents rooms so they had a place to change prior to our 2pm ceremony.
The granary cottage was promptly made available in the morning allowing myself and bridesmaids to spill in to there from the dressing room giving us more room to move around.
The whole experience from start to finish has been like a fairytale and I’m sad it’s over.
Highly recommend! Thank you to everyone involved in making our day so special!
Amazing wedding day
Thank you for our perfect day.
The most beautiful venue
On the day, the getting ready room and small barn/shepherds hut were the perfect spaces to get ready. We were also able to leave all our DIY'd stuff in the cool room the day before so didn't need to stress about that.
All of our guests said how beautiful the venue was, the space was perfect for our 82 guests and the lay out was great. We were so lucky with the weather and were able to spend plenty of time outside (and even got the perfect golden hour shots!)
The guest rooms and the bridal suite were lovely and breakfast was great.
We couldn't recommend Sandhole more and would happily do it all over again!! THANK YOU!
Fantastic Wedding Venue
Having accommodation on site was the cherry on the cake. Can't praise enough.
A Fairytale Barn Wedding
Utterly amazing venue
Beautiful venue
Wedding at Sandhole Oak Barn
As for the wedding day, the most spectacular setting by the lake - whatever the weather! The bridal dressing room was well set-up, making for a relaxed morning getting ready! The shepards hut was a great space for the groom and his best men to relax before the ceremony!
The small Barn was another great feature in this venue, with space to wind down with your loved ones after the big day is over!
Thank you Sandhole!
Perfect wedding
