Minterne House was the most extraordinary setting for our wedding in May! The historic home and the beautiful gardens truly set the tone that we desired for our special day. We stayed in the house for a few days and it was so amazing to wake up in the gorgeous bedrooms; our extended family also stayed in the cottages on the property and raved about them. In addition, the staff was incredibly helpful and responsive; we are from New York City and they made planning from abroad very easy. I HIGHLY recommend Minterne House for a wedding, our guests were blown away and we will never forget our special day at the home.

I just wanted to write to say a very big thank you for making everything so smooth on our civil partnership day......everything about the day was just as we wanted it. ?The venue was perfect. ?We really appreciate your last minute help with additional drinks too, ?………….. the champagne was absolutely delicious, really beautiful. Thanks again, Helen

We recently celebrated our wedding at Scorrier House, and we honestly cannot recommend this stunning venue enough. The grounds are beautiful in every season and weather, offering so many lovely options for both indoor and outdoor weddings. Throughout our planning journey, Ollie and Laura were incredibly helpful and supportive. They always replied promptly to our many questions and made the whole experience feel so much easier and more enjoyable. Our friends, family, and the two of us were made to feel genuinely welcomed during our stay. We also had the pleasure of working with Kitty, who brought such warmth and care to our wedding weekend. She even hosted a yoga class for us the day before the wedding, which was not only relaxing but also so much fun. We would wholeheartedly recommend Scorrier House to any couple looking for a calm, beautiful, and truly special venue that you can make your own. It was everything we hoped for and more.

We recently got married at Eastwood Park and had the most amazing day! We couldn't fault the staff or venue on the actual day of our wedding, so helpful and made the whole day run so smoothly. Angela was amazing, really professional and flexible whilst we planned and figured out what we wanted to do, accommodating all our small details. Clare and Jay were also amazing on our wedding day, running everything so well. The food was also so good (we had burgers and our guests loved them)!

We keep thinking back to last month and wondering whether it was actually a dream, it went that perfectly! We were so lucky with the weather - I'm sure it would have been fantastic inside, but to have our wedding ceremony outdoors in such beautiful surroundings, made the day so magical. We can't thank you enough for all your help in planning what was the most special day. The team (I'm afraid we can only remember Rhiannon's name) were so attentive. Every one of our guests I spoke to couldn't rate The Manor House highly enough. The memories we made last weekend will be cherished forever, not just by us but our family too. Thank you so much again, and I'm sure we'll be back at The Manor House in the not too distant future! Best wishes Mr and Mrs Edmonds!

It was brilliant working with all the staff at Kingston Maurward, especially Danielle who was amazing, organised, fun to work with and nothing was too much trouble. The whole wedding (suppliers booked through KM) was excellent value for money and I highly recommend.

Getting married at Kingston was truly magical. The venue is beautiful, the food is amazing and the Kingston gang are so special. Thank you for everything!

We had our daughter’s wedding at Grittleton House at the start of October 2025. In a nutshell – it was an amazing day and we could not have picked a better venue. It is a lovely building set in amazing grounds. The ability to set up each room separately (so separate rooms for the meet and greet, service and wedding breakfast) was really handy. We had lots of positive feedback about the quality of food (both the canapés and the wedding breakfast). Service was really good and the staff were unobtrusive but really helpful if you needed something. In short – the whole thing ran really smoothly. Having a separate room for the evening disco was great and the large bar area was never overcrowded even with over 100 thirsty guests. One of the things that concerned us when looking at other venues was the use of a temporary bar with limited stock whereas at Grittleton House there was a really good selection of drinks that were also competitively priced. The bar staff were also really efficient and again – nothing was too much trouble. Finally, the rooms in the main house are lovely and made those that stayed there feel really special. To sum up, we had a fantastic day and couldn’t fault anything about either the venue or the staff. We are so pleased we found this venue for our special day.

Words truly cannot express how incredible our wedding at canford. Chloe, Caitlin and all the staff went out of their way to make our day absolutely amazing. First off, the building and grounds and stunning and made for the most amazing photos. We were married in the old library and absolutely loved this. Having the outside space for our canapés and evening food was a real bonus and one of the major selling points of the venue. We also loved the great hall- rarely have I seen such an impressive room that gave so much room for dancing and still to have tables out. Secondly- the food. WOW! Our guests have not stopped talking about the food months on and have said it’s the best that they’ve had at a wedding, with some saying it’s possibly the best food they’ve had out in a long time. The attention to detail was incredible! Now for a focus on Chloe and Caitlin. We cannot thank them enough for all of the effort that they put into the day. They truly coordinated every little aspect and we felt as if we were the only wedding couple they were looking after. The day went off without a glitch and it’s all thanks to them. I don’t think a review is enough to do the day justice. Our day at canford was so special and cannot recommend it enough to anyone looking to get married.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding venue! The aesthetics and grounds are absolutely stunning — every corner was picture-perfect and made for the most beautiful photos. The food was incredible, and all of our guests commented on how delicious everything was. The drinks were another highlight — the range of cocktails was fantastic (especially appreciated by the bride, who’s a big cocktail lover!). Booking and planning were so easy, and the events manager was always on hand to answer questions or help with any last-minute changes we needed to make. The whole day went seamlessly — everything ran perfectly, and we didn’t have to worry about a thing. We’re so grateful to the entire team for helping make our day so special. Highly recommend!
