Perfect venue for the most perfect day!
From day one, the team at Blakelands were so helpful and knowledgeable. I never had to wait too long for a response to my multiple questions (as silly as they were sometimes!!). Chloe, Heather and Paul made sure the day was completely seamless and, if anything did go wrong, we certainly didn't notice. They had a wonderful knack of making sure the day went so smoothly, even though we had a couple of last minute changes.
The food was fantastic and all our guests really enjoyed it - some even went up for seconds!
For any brides considering Blakelands, I would highly recommend booking the Loft to get ready in. It was a gorgeous room for you to get glammed up in. With the music going, it will definitely help you feel relaxed the morning of your big day.
I had a surprise singer booked for my husband and they kept the secret so well! It all added to the magic of the day.
A huge thank you to the team at Blakelands - from Chloe, Heather and Paul to the bar staff, the team serving food and everyone else. You were fanastic and our day was perfect with huge credit to you guys.
I wish we could do it all over again! X

I'd like to thank The Blakelands Estate for being a fabulous venue. You guys could not do enough for us, no email or request was ever too much and you were all always a pleasure to talk to. You were the only venue I viewed and the only venue I'd ever want. Thank you so much ♡

The most beautiful venue
My 30th birthday meal back in march 2022 my then partner, got down on one knee after 15 years! Of course i said yes! But to my surprise he had actually also booked the wedding, chose the date and venue. Surrounded by all our family he handed me the brochure and said your booked in to go and see where we get married at the weekend. When i arrived at the blakelands and walked around i cried! I was so overwhelmed by the beauty of it. Like how i am so lucky to be able to get married here? Fast forward to then 27/10/24 it was our wedding day, we never had to do a thing. Paul, heather all the family and the team you are amazing. The day ran so smoothly. You were there to answer any questions or worries that we had in the run up to the big day and through all the planning. The food was absolutely divine and is still a talked about topic with our family and friends. I felt like a real life princess the whole day. From myself and ben from the bottom of our hearts thank you so so much for everything and making our big day extra special, you are wonderful people

Perfect Day, Perfect Venue
We would recommend The Blakelands Estate in a heartbeat. The barn, grounds and house are all so beautiful and the catering received rave reviews by all. Paul, Heather and their lovely family were a joy to collaborate with, nothing was ever too much or too little, and we really felt in safe hands throughout from the beginning of the planning process right up until the end of the big day. Thank you Blakelands, you will forever have a special place in our hearts. Thank you.

The best day of our life!
What a special family & team, you are at Blakelands... Nobody warns you how difficult and stressful wedding planning is, but the team at The Blakelands Estate work tirelessly, and have supported us every step of the way.
Chloe has remained patient, answering endless emails (and stupid questions). And did wonders keeping up motivated. Heather put our mind at rest and every time we left an appointment with her, we were reenergised.
On the day, Paul ran everything perfectly and to the T. The staff were amazing. Everything went to plan and the day was even more amazing than we dreamed. The food, the venue, the staff team - stole all the compliments.
Thank you all, ♥️ Merry Christmas and enjoy a well earnt break!

Incredible wedding venue and team
We had the most amazing wedding day at Blakelands recently. The whole team were fantastic at making sure we had the best time and everything ran smoothly. In the lead up to the wedding and planning, no question was too much and the team were fantastic at helping us to plan our dream day. The day itself was just incredible and we couldn’t have wished for a better venue. All of our guests raved about the venue and in particular the food, which was really important to us when planning our day. The food was delicious and generous portions so everyone was full and happy!! We knew as soon as we viewed Blakelands that it was the venue for us but the day itself went above and beyond anything we could have imagined. Thank you to the Blakelands team!

Outstanding venue
We knew from the moment we visited Blakelands on the first open day that this venue was the place for us. The venue is absolutely stunning only enhanced by the family who run it and the staff they have working for them. We had so many comments on how beautiful it was and how great the food was and considering the forecast wasn't looking great we were still able to have the garden wedding we were hoping for. We can't thank Blakelands enough for everything they did for us to make our day perfect. Also a huge thank you to Chloe who was outstanding in the lead up to the wedding, who was there to help no matter what. We had an amazing day.

Amazing Experience end to end
We had a fantastic experience with The Blakeland's Estate from start to finish... it was only the second venue that we viewed but we knew it was the one straight away! It had everything we were looking for, including a great indoor and outdoor space, onsite accommodation and lovely staff. We enjoyed the fact that Blakeland's were so flexible in all aspects of our day, when it came to choices around numbers of guests (including a few last min additions), choices of food and drinks, stationary, the list goes on. Even on the day itself where we were a bit worried about the weather, Chloe and the team were so relaxed about the fact that we could change to an indoor ceremony at the last minute if needed (which we didn't, but it was settling to know!). We are so pleased that we chose The Blakeland's Estate as our wedding venue and would absolutely recommend to couples looking in the future! Thanks for everything, Fran & Zak x

Phenomenal!
Words will never be enough to thank Blakelands for absolutely EVERYTHING on our wedding day 08.08.24! From our first viewing, we knew that Blakelands was the venue for us. All of the staff are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for anything more! They always replied so quickly, answered all our questions and made us feel so calm, assured and comfortable throughout the whole process! We were inundated with compliments about every aspect of our wedding day from the venue, the suppliers, the food and most importantly the staff - nothing was too much trouble and we truly felt like part of the Blakelands family. We are eternally grateful for everyone at Blakelands and thank them from the bottom of our hearts for everything. We hope that we can return for other special occasions in the future!

The Blakelands Estate is a beautiful venue with everything you need for your day with lots of flexibility too. The ceremony areas are beautiful and there are heaps of lovely spots for pictures. The team are completely invested in delivering the day that you want and work tirelessly to make sure the day goes seamlessly. The in-house catering was delicious.
