Winter wedding

Wow… what an absolutely incredible venue. Our wedding at The Norfolk Arms on 29th November was everything we dreamed of for a perfect winter wedding. From start to finish, nothing was too much trouble and the entire team made the day feel effortless, magical and completely personal to us.

The hotel itself is beautiful, full of character, charm and warmth, but it’s the staff who truly make it exceptional. Every single person we encountered was friendly, helpful and genuinely invested in making our day special. The reception team catered to every little request, always with a smile.

The bridal suite was amazing. It was the perfect space for getting ready with my bridesmaids, light, spacious and so comfortable. The team brought breakfast and coffee up on a tray, and later delivered bacon butties to keep us all going. Those thoughtful touches made the morning feel relaxed, fun and memorable.

A huge thank you must go to Karen, who supported us throughout the entire planning journey. She was superb, organised, reassuring, warm and always just a message away when we needed anything. In the run up to the big day and on the day itself, she checked in regularly, made sure everything ran smoothly and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy at every stage.

The food was fantastic, the atmosphere perfect and the whole experience faultless. We truly could not have chosen a better venue for our winter wedding.

Thank you to everyone at The Norfolk Arms for giving us the most incredible day. We would recommend this venue to any couple looking for a stunning location with a brilliant team who genuinely care.

Fab place to have a wedding reception!

We had our wedding reception here in April and it was wonderful! The day went without a hitch, the staff were very helpful,polite & smiley. I would reccomend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with fantastic photographic oppurtunites. Their wedding organiser was a huge help before the day. Top marks, we had alot of positive comments during & after the day about our choice of venue from the gorgeous food to the lovely setting. Even the DJ in the evening was good!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
