We had our wedding at the Master Builders House in Buckler’s Hard in March, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!

From start to finish, the staff were incredible – so helpful, friendly, and professional. They made sure everything ran smoothly, taking all the stress out of the day so we could just enjoy every moment. A special thank you to Lizzie, who took over shortly before our wedding. She put us completely at ease and went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. Also a big thank you to Chris, the general manager, for meeting with us beforehand and being there on the day to ensure it all went to plan.

The morning of the wedding, while getting ready with the girls, the team were amazing – bringing up a breakfast platter, tea, coffee, and anything else we needed. They made sure we had everything we wanted to feel relaxed and looked after, and it really set the tone for the day.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful – full of charm and character, and it was spotless throughout. The view down to the river with the boats just in front is truly stunning and creates the most magical setting, especially for photos. It’s such a peaceful, timeless place and we fell in love with it from our first visit. The team put out all of our décor exactly as we’d hoped, and somehow made it look even better than we’d imagined!

The bridal suite and all the rooms were gorgeous – clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. All of our guests stayed at the hotel for two nights and everyone had a great experience.

We also booked Henry’s pub for the night before the wedding so we could have a relaxed evening with all our guests, and it was just perfect. The food was excellent and Lizzie made everything so easy when it came to ordering for a large group.

One lovely bonus was being able to use the Chichester Room as a games room during the wedding day – it was a real hit with our guests, especially with the March weather being a little chilly!

We’re so grateful to the entire team at the Master Builders House for helping us create such a special day. It truly was everything we hoped for and more. We would recommend this venue to anyone without hesitation.

Thank you!🤍

We would thoroughly recommend the master builders as a wedding venue. Not only is the venue lovely and offers a picturesque setting and photo opportunities by the water it also has a variety of packages to suit budgets. We had loads of options to choose from and could create our ideal day! Laura (wedding coordinator) was amazing and helped us throughout with the help of Ana. Their knowledge and expertise was fundamental in the run up and they were also amazing on the day, coordinating suppliers and flow of our schedule. We loved that our guests could stay at the venue and we had space for most of the guests meaning we could extend our wedding by dining the night before and having breakfast together the morning after our wedding. Food was lovely and the options were great and gave us a really wide choice to create our perfect menu. We had THE best day and so did all of our guests. Cannot recommend them enough!

We looked at several venues on our wedding planning journey, and found a couple we really liked.
Then we looked at Master Builder's House.
There were quantifiable qualities that we liked, such as the spaces, large open room for the ceremony and wedding breakfast.
Spacious yet cosy lounge with a warming fire and comfortable sofas, for people to chat and relax.
The outside space and views.
Lovely individual rooms, and plenty of accommodation for our family and friends to stay.
The staff were friendly and welcoming.
But something else kept drawing us back.
We had a second look around on a cold, dull and rainy day, but as soon as we stepped into the hotel it felt like walking into a hug.
The staff welcomed us into the lounge with a drink in front of the fire, the lights twinkled and it was so cosy.
As our wedding was planned for 1st November we knew this was the worst the weather could be and it would not affect our day at all.

Ana and Laura planned our day with us, supporting our choices and making suggestions.
They were always easy to contact and helpful.
They liaised with our venue dresser, registrar, florist, photographer, baker, magician, band and string quartet ensuring the whole day ran smoothly.

On our wedding day my hair and makeup artist was shown to my room to set up ready for me, and offered a drink.
Nothing was too much trouble.
The whole day flowed perfectly.
The meal was lovely and arrived in a timely fashion, we had a few people with allergies and they were catered for without any issues.
The evening buffet was tasty and plentiful.
When we went to our room we had a lovely surprise,a little bear waiting on our bed for us, it was wearing a vest embroidered with Master Builders House on the front,
What I didn't notice until I got home was that it had been personalised on the back with our names and wedding date.
We had a perfect day with 80 day guests and 120 in the evening, the whole team worked seamlessly to bring the day together.
We couldn't have asked for a better day. The venue looked beautiful, the food was lovely and the staff were polite, friendly and helpful.
We would whole heartedly recommend Master Builder's House.

We had the most special day. The staff were amazing, well organised and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend you to hold your day at the Master Builders House Hotel. We had no stress on the day and everything was taken care of are of. All our guests said how much the love the venue.

We had our wedding at the Master Builders in September and would highly recommend there. We were looking for a venue with character in a beautiful setting with an intimate feel and this venue was perfect. Laura and Ana were amazing to deal with leading up to our special day, helping us plan the day and letting us change the package they were offering to include different options we wanted. On the day the amazing Lizzie was in charge and with the help of Ashley made the day run smoothly so that we didn’t have to worry about anything. She kept me so relaxed and was so easy to deal with. The Master Builders is perfect for an intimate wedding in a beautiful setting. Emma & Alan

Beautiful venue, very flexible to our needs for our small intimate wedding.
Private lounge for drinks and private dining with excellent food options. We chose to have a la carte menu.
Wedding planners looked after us very well.

We were lucky enough to have our evening wedding reception at a family barn, so wanted to have our ceremony and afternoon at The Master Builders, and they were so accommodating and happy to adapt their usual package to ensure our day was bespoke to us. The ceremony was perfect, with beautiful views across the Beaulieu river, and the afternoon was even better, with canapés and drinks in the garden. The staff looked after us all so well, ensuring we were fed well and our glasses were topped up. They were also extremely helpful in the lead up to the wedding. I would definitely recommend this venue for a wedding!

We didn’t go and see many wedding venue we knew almost instantly that The Master Builder’s House was the perfect venue for us. It was cozy and had the perfect autumnal vibe we were searching for. Ana and Laura were fantastic through the planning process and were really flexible in terms of making our day exactly what we wanted. They were really responsive and made us feel like our wedding was really important and not just one of a number of weddings they were hosting this year.
On the day the team were all fantastic it’s a really well oiled machine. Everything went so smoothly and was so stress free meaning we just got to enjoy our wedding day. There were lots of extra little special touches that just made the day feel really magical.
We couldn’t recommend this venue highly enough. They really helped us have the perfect day.

Fantastic service- the big day went without a hitch. Couldn’t have asked for more

From our first guided tour we immediately made our mind up that The Master Builders would be our wedding venue. Laura and her staff were very professional. Constantly putting us at ease. Nothing was too much and had incredible patience. The venue was perfect for us. The weather was good on the day so last minute relocation to our ceremony under the oak tree in the garden made it very special. Thank you so much all the staff at The Master Builders. .

A unique hotel in a beautiful location offering exclusive use of the hotel for a wedding. The entire team at the Master Builders went above and beyond to make our wedding a fairy tale come true. Laura, the wedding co-ordinator, organised everything we wanted: we wanted our wedding ceremony under a Chuppah in the garden, to provide our guests with afternoon tea before the ceremony, we wanted several menu choices for guests for the wedding breakfast.
The food was wonderful. But what made it so special was the way the staff looked after us all. Unobtrusive, but there whenever we needed them. It was like being cared for by special friends.

We had a truly magical day at the Master Builders. The staff were incredible throughout the day and the chef was wonderful!
Thanks to our Wedding Coordinator for all the help leading up to the wedding and setting up everything exactly how we wanted it.

We both had the most amazing day, and just about all of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was.

We would certainly rate both the venue and the service as a 5/5, we couldn’t have wished for a better day.
Every member of staff we dealt with were friendly and professional and made us all feel very welcome.

We would like to thank our Wedding Coordinator for all her support and the fantastic job she did in helping us have the wedding day that we wanted and helping it all come together perfectly on the day. The restaurant manager was also brilliant!

Thank you so so much for everything, we had the perfect day and all of our guests were so impressed with both the service and the venue!

We would like to thank our Wedding Coordinator Liga and everyone at the Master Builder’s for making our wedding day so amazing and stress free.

Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We were very impressed by the seamless change overs.

Our guests loved the rooms they stayed in too.

Thank you so much again for making our wedding day so special!
