The perfect venue

The Beacon made our wedding day everything that we hoped it would be! The venue is stunning, the views magnificent, the food incredible and the staff wonderful.

Having the venue to ourselves for the wedding was perfect. It helped everyone to relax and made the day feel so special. We were both able to get ready on site with our parties, which helped us both feel like we had a special morning. The team were able to navigate everyone around each other in the morning so that bride, groom and guests were able to explore, without colliding too early!

Our coordinator, Abi, was incredibly flexible and helpful, making suggestions where we needed them and taking on board our wishes for the day, creating a celebration that truly felt like us. From the very first visit to see the venue, we felt like our ideas and our wedding were valued and that the staff were excited as much as we were.

We had multiple meetings with the team, who were happy for us to visit and bring parents for additional visits when needed. The food tasting was amazing and we loved the whole experience, and, on the day, the food was delicious and many of our guests commented on the Beef Wellington.

Being able to have some of our guests stay on site with us as part of the package was also ideal and waking up to the venue the next day and having a beautiful breakfast on the terrace, was the perfect end.

I'd absolutely recommend the Beacon for wedding and we will no doubt be back for dinner and drinks regularly!

The perfect venue!

It was such a beautiful, relaxed, elegant venue to hold our wedding. The team were so helpful and accommodating from the start and made the whole process so easy and fun especially with the tasting event prior to the wedding. On the day, it all ran so seamlessly and that's down to the team's hard work behind the scenes. Really cannot praise this venue and the people highly enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
