Our wedding day :)

We can’t thank Shotton Grange enough for such an amazing wedding day! From start to finish everything was exactly what we wanted. Shotton accommodated our vision and were very flexible with what we wanted.
The venue is gorgeous and the staff are so helpful.
Highly recommend :)

Wedding Day 20.06.25

We got married at Shotton Grange on one of the hottest days of the year so really made use of the stunning grounds for our Ceremony and Drinks Reception.

The whole team prior and on the day went above and beyond for us from small minor last minute changes on the week leading up to the day to just everything running so perfect on the actual day including Aaron having a nose bleed 10 minutes before the ceremony!!

I could not recommend this venue enough to anyone looking for an amazing place with great staff, service and food!

All of our guests have commented on how amazing the food was from the wedding breakfast, evening pizza to the breakfast the following morning!

Thank you very much! 🤍

The happiest day!

We can’t recommend Shotton Grange enough. From start to finish they made the wedding experience so easy and relaxed. The team really go above and beyond, no detail is too big or too small. The communication from the planning team couldn’t have been better. Every member of staff that we came into contact with were amazing. All of our guests commented on how wonderful all the staff were on the day. You can tell they are all passionate about their jobs and it really shows in their work. We’d also like to add how amazing food is at the venue. We were lucky enough to stay at the venue the night before our wedding with all of our wedding party, the food provided was 5*. The wedding guests also commented on how lovely all of the food throughout the wedding day was. If you're looking for a wedding venue, look no further than Shotton Grange!

Amazing Venue!

Honestly, the most stunning venue and the food was absolutely exceptional. We chose a three-course meal for our wedding breakfast and stone-fired pizzas for the evening. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed everything and even said it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. Every single member of staff was attentive, friendly, and polite, they truly couldn’t have done more for us. Bonus points for being so dog-friendly!

Our perfect day at a perfect venue

My husband and I got married at the parlour at blagdon in early may 2025. And we have nothing but positive things to.say.

The venue itself is just beautiful it has a rustic classic feel with all the modern comforts. We loved that our guests had several different areas they could sit and the day just flowed. We are the most disorganised pair ever the staff were incredibly patient and flexible but gave us a gentle push when needed. Racheal ran our day and she was the perfect person for us she was on hand all.day and nothing was too much for her or the other staff.

If we could.do it all.again we would.choose the parlour everytime.

The best compliment we got from so many of our guests I would say also.is a compliment to the parlour. They said it was 1 of the best weddings they have ever been too.

Emily & Christopher Lall

We couldn’t recommend this venue highly enough from the beautiful building and grounds to the attentive and professional staff. They really did go above and beyond to ensure our special day was perfect. From the very first day of viewing the venue to booking and setting a date everything was seamless. A big thanks to Emma who was always on hand to answer any questions or query’s we had it made the very short 5 months of planning stress free. Everyone commented how chilled and relaxed our day was thanks to the amazing team we wouldn’t change a thing.

Spring wedding

Beautiful day for our wedding at Shotton Grange. The team were amazing and we had plenty of in person meetings with them along the way and lots of email communication.

Everything ran so smoothly and they made our vision beautiful🤍

The most perfect venue

Shotton Grange is absolutely stunning inside and out, and we were so lucky to book them for our wedding day.

From the very start of the process, the whole team were so lovely and kind and they kept us updated throughout. Every visit was great and the food tasting left us confident that we'd picked the right place.

The venue is so beautiful you barely need any decs at all! All we needed was table decorations and a few flowers and it was perfect. We kept it simple and it's all that was needed, the beauty of the space speaks for itself.

Now to talk about the people. Emma looked after us for the majority of our booking and she was soooo lovely! She even snuck over to see us on the day which we really appreciated. She kept us reassured and calm during a very stressful process! I had so many questions, and had barely any idea about the process, so I was emailing all the time and the whole team were always quick and helpful to respond.

On our wedding day we were looked after by the wonderful Mir, who was so fabulous and efficient, making sure everything ran smoothly and everyone had a good time! The whole day was safe in her hands and it could never have gone as well as it did without her care! The evening staff also saved us some pizza and took it up to the room for us, which was a godsend at the end of a night of nonstop dancing!

I couldn't recommend Shotton Grange enough, the beautiful building, gorgeous grounds, delicious food and fantastic staff. You helped make our day perfect, we can't thank you enough 💕

Amazing day! Perfect from start to finish.

We had our wedding here on 21st February 2025. It was the most perfect day. I'll start by saying how good the communication was from the start with Emma, from our meetings to any emails she was so quick to reply and really knows her stuff. When it came to the day before when we went to set up Alison was appointed our master of ceremonies. She came in to chat while we were setting up and really put my mind at ease. The heating had stopped working on the ground and first floor the night before and we were given a fan heater and offered a room on the top floor and also given access to the bridal suite to get our dresses hung up and ready for the morning of the wedding. The next morning Alison arrived and was amazing throughout, even lining up shots for us before we walked down the aisle and making sure we had a drink while getting our photos taken. The day was really well organised and went perfectly to plan. The good was amazing and the feedback from our guests was that the food was the best they've had at a wedding. Thank you so much to the team for making our day perfect and for being so accommodating.

Honestly just perfect!

We've recently been married in Shotton Grange and it was everything we wanted and more! Emma dealt with us from start to finish and she couldn't have been more helpful and lovely. Emma ensured every detail was discussed and even reminded us of things we hadn't thought of yet. Rachel then dealt with our big day and she was equally as amazing, ensuring the day ran smoothly and as perfect as we wanted. The food!! Wow, the food was amazing and our guests thought so too. We loved that our guests had the choice of food and it all ran so smoothly even with people eating different dishes. Honestly our day was perfect for us and that's thanks to Shotton Grange. The venue and grounds are beautiful and one guest even commented 'I could stay here for a week'. We cannot thank you all enough! If you're thinking about booking, do it!! X

Small intimate wedding

We got married at shotton grange last month and we honestly could not recommend this venue any more. We had a very small intimate wedding of only 18 people, shotton made a bespoke package for us. The day literally could not have been more perfect it was so relaxed in the most beautiful grounds and then chilled with the fire pits on the night time.
The staff at the venue are absolutely fantastic, Emma was our coordinator who helped us plan everything, she was amazing. The response to emails are so fast usually same day response. Claire was there on our wedding day she was so lovely and helped everything run smoothly.
I cannot recommend this venue enough they are amazing and are very reasonably priced. Food was phenomenal all of our guests commented how nice the food was.
Thank you shotton grange for making our day so perfect despite having the rainiest day of the year! 🤍

simply amazing

What can we say!!

We had the most perfect wedding day at Shotton Grange.

Right from the beginning when we were viewing venues we knew Shotton Grange would be for us.

The whole place is beautiful. It’s set back in a manor house with ample room inside and out.
There are gorgeous gardens with a wonderful fountain (perfect for pictures) and little hidden areas where guests can congregate.

The rooms were stunning , they were spacious, fully equipped with showers and amenities and beautifully decorated. They were also reasonably priced.

Overall we fell in love with the venue as soon as we set eyes on it and the personalised approach from the staff sealed the deal.

Leading up to the day the staff were amazing , you could tell they loved their jobs and were excited to help us plan the day. They kept us informed throughout the process and even helped out with suggestions when we felt out of our depth. Their experience really shone through.


Finally on the day of the wedding the staff on site were invaluable. The day was always going to have a few hiccups but they took the pressure and strain from us so we could really enjoy the day with our friends and family. No ask was too big or small and they really went the extra mile.

I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for an affordable but beautiful wedding

Thank you so much
Emma, Mark and Oliver

The most perfect day!

Staff were just out of this world! From planning to the actual day we could not fault them at all! The venue speaks for itself with how beautiful it is! We had around 50 guests for daytime and 70 for evening and I can say the venue size seemed to be perfect for this!
The food was amazing!! Clean plates all around and couldn’t get enough of it!
I miss my wedding day already and would do it all over again with the exact same venue!

Best day of our lives!

Shotton Grange met all of our expectations and more! From the minute we booked I felt at ease with the planning process as Emma was so on hand with everything. Nothing was ever to much trouble and she was always there to answer any questions no matter how silly they were! On the day itself it was a lovely touch that Emma was there to say hello as I made my way to the aisle. All staff were absolutely amazing, everything flowed perfectly and that’s all down to their hard work on the day. We are so appreciative of everyone’s efforts the staff are amazing. Aswell as the staff Shotton Grange is stunning, the grounds are beautiful and it’s the perfect sized venue. We are so glad we picked this venue for our special day. It was absolutely beautiful!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
