Amazing wedding venue!
The Olde Bell gave us the wedding of our dreams, and we honestly couldn’t thank the whole team enough for making our day so incredibly special. We’ll be forever grateful for the memories we made there!
Incredible Venue and Staff
From start to finish, everyone was extremely accommodating and made us feel so welcome. A special mention has to go to Leah, who was our wedding coordinator leading up to the wedding. She was absolutely lovely, incredibly helpful and always made us feel like we could ask questions or discuss anything we needed. Having someone so supportive and accommodating throughout the planning process made such a difference and helped make everything feel so much less stressful.
The team we had on the actual wedding day were incredible. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and any requests we had were dealt with straight away. They were so attentive and on top of everything, which meant we could actually relax and enjoy our day without having to worry about what was happening behind the scenes. The whole day felt extremely organised, and we genuinely believe that was down to how amazing the team were.
Everyone was so friendly, helpful and professional, and we felt incredibly well looked after from beginning to end. The Olde Bell was the perfect setting for our wedding and we are so grateful to the whole team for helping make our day so special.
We would highly recommend The Olde Bell to anyone looking for a wedding venue. Leah and the entire team were fantastic, and we couldn’t have been happier with our experience!
The best day ever!
Special mention to Vincent, you have made this day even better, by being so attentive to us, making sure that every detail was taken care of, always so friendly, patient and understanding. Thank you so much for you hard work!
The Olde Bell, a charming, elegant and romantic wedding venue
The wedding coordinators( Leah and Ruhi) were incredibly helpful, dedicated and attentive throughout, making sure everything ran smoothly,and allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the moment, the food was delicious, and we especially appreciated how thoughtfully the menu was tailored to suit our Indian palate while still catering beautifully for all our guests.
From the setting and servuce to the organisation and food, everything came together wonderfully.
Thank you to the entire Olde Bell team for helping make our wedding such a beautiful, memorable and special day❤️. We will always look back on it with very fond memories.

Our Wedding.
Leah was very helpful, informative, friendly & professional. Vincent was everything I needed as a bride on the wedding day, he was friendly & calming, making sure everything ran perfectly, he is a credit to your team.
The venue is perfect if you are looking for that old barn style, it looked beautiful in the pictures. The food was amazing. The bridal suite is perfect, clean & loved the bedroom decor.
We had the most wonderful memorable day, all our guests said how lovely the venue was & had a great day.
We wish we could do it all again!!

Also Leah the wedding planner done a fantastic job from when we first booked the wedding the beginning of this year, right though till the day we got married. We would highly recommend this venue for a perfect wedding.

Perfect venue for our wedding
While we only have the sneak peek photos so far, we're very pleased to have had the stunning backdrops of the Olde Bell Malthouse, Hurley village and the river all within a short walk.
From reception to housekeeping to servers, all the staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a dinner the night before and had brought cakes for the celebration of two guests' significant birthdays. Due to the extreme heat, I had been uanble to frost them at home without the frosting melting, so the kitchen team very kindly did that for us, and did a far better job than I would have. They even added strawberries that I hadn't supplied, and wrote happy birthday messages on the plates in chocolate sauce.
As parts of the building date back to 1135, it's a Grade II listed property, and therefore doesn't have air conditioning. If you're planning a summer wedding, do consider how your guests might cope with the heat, both during the celebration and overnight if they're staying at the hotel.
If you're looking for a venue with a warm, relaxed atmosphere and a team who genuinely care about making your day special, we wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Olde Bell.
We come back every year for our anniversary ❤️
Such a special place for us xx xx
