Married at the Bosk September 2024

We got married at the Bosk in September 2024, as soon as we visited the venue we know the venue was for us, we were having a small wedding of 45 people and i knew after going to other weddings and transport always being a problem having everyone onsite for 3 days along with celebrating our wedding was important to us :)

From start to finish from the moment of booking our wedding Kim was fantastic, the weekend of the wedding couldnt have gone better and the staff were so lovely.

I am a foodie person so having lovely food for our guests and for the weekend was a big deal, we have a pizza night, 3 course wedding breakfast, evening meal and then most guests also stayed for sunday lunch all amazing.

Couldn't recommend this venue anymore, the cottages were really lovely too i know some of our guests will be going back for mini breaks.

The best weekend wedding venue

We got married at the Bosk in April 2024. From the moment we viewed the venue and met the owner, we realised it was perfect for our low-key, intimate, 64 person wedding.

Leading up to the wedding, the team were super responsive to all our queries and requests and nothing seemed like any trouble (no matter how many annoying questions I asked). We had been for Sunday lunch, which is incredible and asked for just that instead of their wedding menus, with starters as the post ceremony canapés.

On our wedding weekend and in general, (perhaps what we didn’t expect), is that the team at the Bosk were on our team, making sure we, as the bride and groom were looked after as a priority throughout, and of course our guests.

As former hospitality professionals, the staff provided the excellent and professional service we would provide to our customers.

It is a fantastic venue which is flexible and you can have everyone you want there in their gorgeous cottages for the whole weekend for what we consider to be reasonable monies (certainly compared to many one night stay venues in Northumberland). We got loads of great feedback from our guests re the standard of accommodation.

We have nothing but amazing things to say about the Bosk and can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day truly the best. We’re looking forward to going back for lunch soon!

Beautiful venue and location, on site accommodation and incredible staff

The Bosk is a beautiful venue in the middle of the Cheviots so you are surrounded by hills and trees. We rented all the cottages for our guests so our wedding party completely took over the site, everyone commented on how lovely the cottages were.
For the wedding itself, the Kim and Jess were amazing making sure everything was exactly to our taste. They adapted the menu for our guests and made the whole thing feel truly unique and a reflection of us as a couple.

Perfect winter wedding

We got married in Dec 2022, The team at the Bosk were fantastic and so accommodating. We had a fantastic weekend of celebrations with our friends and family, the on site accommodation made it so easy as people didn’t have to travel to the venue of the day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
