Truly the most incredible venue

We had our wedding at Sparth House on 28 July 2023 and all we can say is wow! From the first time seeing the venue we knew it’d be where we would get married, it is simply a magical place.

The garden apartment that is there to stay in the night before and get ready in the morning of is simply stunning, it was so lovely to be in one place and get ready and have a peek out the windows to see guests arriving.

The venue itself is just simply beautiful, so many photo opportunities and all our guests commented on how amazing it is. They have recently renovated the bar area and bridal suite as well as some guests rooms to make the place even better than it already was.

There are no words for how amazing the staff are! Our wedding planner Katie was simply incredible and there for me any time when I had questions, always reassuring me and making sure the whole day ran smoothly, not one single thing went wrong! All of the staff will make you feel like royalty, the service is impeccable! They are so professional, polite and caring, always checking everything was okay and if we needed anything.

The food was simply delicious, from the taster day we knew it was going to be good but they really did do amazing on the day and all our guests loved it to.

If I could get married again I would have the exact same wedding at Sparth House and I am so glad we picked this amazing venue for our special day, they truly made it the best day ever.

More than perfect...

Our wedding day ran without any hiccups, the smooth transitions, didn't feel like anything was forced, reception, wedding breakfast, evenining transition. It was effortless.
Katie, Olivia, Emma are a fab team, but on the day you see so many other members of the team, that really do make a special impact of the day. The little things - no long queues at the bar... hahah no one wants to wait for a drink and especially at a wedding. The formula at spartg House is perfect and if you choose this venue, you will not be disappointed, I can walk in a room and 99% can be perfect and I will see that one fault.... and for the first time in my life, I could not find a fault....
Thank you all for helping to make our day perfect.

Amazing venue!!!

Where do I start? I have struggled to find the words to describe just how amazing this venue is!!
I first came across Olivia and Katie when they were doing wine & live chats online during lockdown where they spoke everything weddings! I could tell straight away how dedicated they both were to their jobs and how their main goal was to ensure couples wedding’s were perfect.
When we looked around the venue, we knew straight away we had found the one! It really is a hidden Gem!
We cannot put into words just how perfect and amazing our day was! All the planning and organising was made so easy because of Olivia and all her help and advice. I could email whenever I had a query or was panicking over something, and she always got back to me with reassurance when I needed it. Every little detail was thought of, and the girls worked so hard to help our day run so smoothly! Nothing was too much trouble… Olivia even ran to get my lipgloss mid photos because i had forgot to put it on!
All our decorations where set out perfectly and the whole venue looked stunning and just how we imagined it!
The wedding breakfast was delicious and enjoyed by everyone, and the evening food was amazing too! The breakfast the day after was also brilliant and the room was set up for us and our guests beautifully with all our flowers.
We cannot thank all the team at Sparth house enough for giving us the day of our dreams! We want to do it all again!

Amazing! The perfect wedding venue.

The most stunning venue. Every little detail has been thought out by the team here, its second to none. They have a beautiful garden apartment to stay the night before with your bridesmaids and it is absolutely perfect. The rooms throughout the venue are absolutely stunning, the food was delicious, the grounds are stunning too. We could not have picked a better place to enjoy one of the best days our life. All of our guests commented on how wonderful this venue was and we couldn't agree more. Olivia, Katie and Emma (and the rest of the SH team) are the best.

Our Christmas / New Years wedding! 30.12.21

We had the most perfect day from the night before In the garden apartment with my bridesmaids… all the way through the wedding day & evening… and breakfast the following day!
Guests complimented on the lovely venue, food and staff! The cheesecake is to die for!
It suited exactly what we were looking for in a venue; family run, perfect size, gorgeous guest bedrooms, minimal but stylish decor that you can dress to suit any theme and beautiful grounds.

Thank you for all of your help with planning our day and we wish we could do it all again 🤍

Nick and Carrie's wedding day

We originally chose Sparth House because at the time they were the only one offering the kind of wedding we wanted. We also lived in the area and loved the idea of getting married in our local town. It's a beautiful building, full of character.

The day was magical, Katie our wedding planner is a gem, nothing was too much trouble. Her calming influence and lovely smile just made it all the more special, my four year old Grandson took a shine to her too. Emma, was just brilliant, all the staff were a credit to the Sparth House. If you want the personal touch you won't go far wrong. It was a perfect chilled out wedding, which was just the vibe we wanted.

I don’t even know where to begin. Olivia, Katie and the team are absolutely unreal and helped us have the most perfect day. Everything was just as we planned and nothing was too much trouble - it was amazing and we just want to do it all over again. We have had so many compliments on the venue, food, staff etc so a massive THANK YOU to everyone at Sparth House. We were made to feel like family and for this we will always be grateful. We are so sad it’s over but would highly recommend to anyone looking to find their dream wedding venue!

Book this venue

Sparth House was only the 2nd venue myself and my now husband visited and on the drive home we had already decided it was going to be OUR venue.
Olivia, Katie and the whole SH team were absolutely incredible from start to finish. Our wedding was really chilled and I was really laid back throughout the planning process - which was probably a nightmare for Olivia and Katie! - but nothing was ever any trouble.
Our day went off without any problems and the team were so accommodating. I chose to spend the night before the wedding in the Garden Apartment with my Mum and bridesmaids and everything from the decor to the food and drinks was amazing and it was a really relaxing way to start the wedding day. Our make up artist and photographer kept commenting on how lovely the space was and we all really appreciated everyone coming to check on us (me) throughout the morning.
We had brought a 'Welcome' sign with us and it was so small that it looked ridiculous on the normal easel SH provided that when I walked past it after our ceremony, I laughed at how cheap we had been to not get a bigger one and said it looked silly... later that day I went for photographs with my husband, I noticed the sign had been put on a smaller easel and it was just little things like that which made the day amazing.
Oh my god - the food! Pizza and breakfast in the Garden Apartment, the wedding breakfast, the evening food, the breakfast the day after?! Everything was incredible and all of our guests commented on how good everything was. We attended a taster day and I'm glad we had already picked our food because it would've been so difficult to decide afterwards because everything was so delicious!
I'm waxing lyrical now but basically BOOK THIS VENUE YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. We loved our Sparth House wedding and would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Fabulous Venue, Amazing Staff

This is an exceptional venue for a smaller, medium or larger size weddings. We looked at so many different places and this had a wonderful feel as soon as we walked in. Olivia and Katie were amazing throughout and with all the Covid rearrangements and cancellations. Nigel the venue owner also went out of his way to make our day so very special. You cannot go wrong with this place. They will ensure you have your day exactly as you want it. The surroundings and rooms are beautiful.

The MOST incredible day ❤️

From the moment we viewed Sparth House, we absolutely loved it and all the staff were so friendly!

We booked Sparth House for our wedding in March 23 and we made the best decision. Nothing was too much for them and everything was so organised which really took the stress of us!

The venue is so beautiful and the renovations are amazing!

Emma looked after us throughout the whole experience and was just incredible!

All three wedding planners Emma, Olivia and Katie played a huge part of our day and we can't thank them enough!

Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone! 😀

The most perfect wedding day we could have ever wished for

We can’t thank the venue enough for how amazing they were from the first day we stepped in the building to the morning after our wedding. We couldn’t have wished for a more perfect day.

Our dream wedding

From the moment we stepped into the house I knew this would be a where we would get married. It just felt right. Such a homely yet elegant feel. We booked our wedding two years in advance but the girls kept in touch all the way through with check in emails and were always on hand to answer any questions!

I stayed with my bridal party the night before in the garden apartment and would undoubtedly recommend this for all brides. I felt so relaxed, the apartment is gorgeous and not having the stress of traveling anywhere on the morning of the wedding was perfect.

The day ran without fault and that was all down to our amazing wedding planner Katie and her fantastic team. She ensured the day ran effortlessly which as the bride and groom is so important on an already nerve filled day! From fixing my veil moments before I walked down the aisle to ensuring I always had a drink in my hand, Katie went above an beyond to make sure our day was more than we could have dreamed of.
Every individual guest was catered for, no little detail missed and all our guests commented (and still continue to comment) on what an amazing time they had - especially the food!! Having full exclusivity of the venue meant we could truly relax and party without the worry of unknown guests being part of our day and this was something a lot of other venues we had looked at couldn’t provide.

I wish we could do the day over and over and would advise anyone considering Sparth House as their wedding venue to choose it!

A huge thank you to Katie and all of the team at Sparth House for making our day one we will treasure forever.

Mr and Mrs Yates!

The Perfect Venue!

I don’t even know where to start! We had just got engaged and knew straight away we didn’t want a long engagement so we pulled out the laptop and started making enquiries at various wedding venues, Sparth house responded straight away and got us a show around booked in for a time that suited us (I need to add its been approx. 12 months now and some venues still haven’t responded). We had looked at approx. 6 venues and as soon as we walked in to Sparth house we fell in love with it, you can tell straight away Olivia goes above and beyond for every couple and is definitely an expert in all things weddings! I am a bit of an organization freak so once we booked our date in and they sent me over an excel spreadsheet it was a dream! Everything you need plus things you haven’t even thought about is on the documents they sent, it takes away so much stress and I don’t know any other venue that provides so much help in the planning stages.
All of our suppliers were included in the package and/or recommended by sparth house, this made it so much easier as they already have a working relationship and to be honest we didn’t really have to do much, from booking our date everything was all sorted 10 days later, not many people can say that.
We booked the garden apartment for me (the bride) to stay in the night before, I cant recommend it enough, plenty of room for everyone, the pizza was the best I have ever eaten! I could happily live there if they would let me. My hair and make up artist also complimented the space and the light, there is no need to worry about room time restrictions as I know a lot of brides worry about that.
Now the morning off the wedding, it was so relaxing, Sparth house come and give you updates on times and guest etc. Sadly the only thing they can’t control is the weather, it was heavily raining all day, I needn’t have worried at all, they implemented plan B they all got their brollies out (even getting wet themselves) to ensure I didn’t get a speckle of rain on me. We requested a candle lit low lighting ceremony room, when I say they go above and beyond, they even took bulbs out of the main light for us, not to mention lighting 100 candles. The ceremony room looked so much better than we could of dreamt off.
This followed on to the wedding breakfast, they moved the candles around Sparth house without us even asking, everywhere and I mean everywhere looked perfect, I kept taking a step back in shock that this was our wedding day and not someone else’s. So many people complimented the food (would 100% recommend the brownie).
All the rooms are beautiful and the breakfast the next day was the best I have ever eaten, so many people still mention it now.
Thank you so much, and sorry it has taken me so long to post this review!
Love from Azaira & James Whitfield 😊
