A beautiful place🤍✨

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with The Ravenswood for our wedding, and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

From the moment we first visited the venue, we knew The Ravenswood was the right choice for us. When comparing it with other venues, it simply ticked all the boxes — but what really stood out was how supported, looked after and at ease we felt throughout the entire process.

The wedding day itself was genuinely one of the best days of our lives, and even during those nerve-wracking final weeks leading up to it, we always felt that we were in safe hands.

Our Coordinator, Natalie, was absolutely fantastic. She was incredibly friendly, approachable, trustworthy and reliable, and nothing ever felt like too much of an ask. She helped make the whole process feel so much less daunting and, most importantly, made sure our wedding felt completely personal to us. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better person to have by our side in the lead-up to the big day.

We also want to give a special shout-out to Ellie, who gave us our initial tour and helped arrange our package. From our very first visit, she was so welcoming and made such a great first impression.

The Ravenswood gave us a wedding day that we will look back on with so much love and happiness for the rest of our lives. We are incredibly grateful to every member of staff who played a part in making it so special.

A huge thank you to Natalie, Ellie and the entire Ravenswood team — we will always have such a special place in our hearts for The Ravenswood. 🤍

Lots of love,
Chloe & Lloyd Osland

Easy choice!

We recently had our wedding at The Ravenswood, and it was absolutely everything we could have ever hoped for and more! From start to finish, the venue was amazing. It’s beautifully laid out, incredibly well organised, and everything about the day felt so seamless.

A very special thank you has to go to our wedding coordinator, Georgia Brown, who was an absolute blessing. She was amazing throughout the whole process and made sure everything ran smoothly and exactly as planned. Having someone so attentive, organised and supportive there on the day made such a huge difference and allowed us to relax and truly enjoy every moment.

We honestly couldn’t recommend The Ravenswood enough. They really do provide the full package, which takes so much of the stress out of wedding planning and organising. From the venue itself to the incredible team, we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our special day.

A massive thank you again to everyone at The Ravenswood, and especially to Georgia Brown, for helping make our wedding day so perfect and memorable. We will be forever grateful! ❤️

Enchanting venue

The Ravenswood is an absolutely incredible wedding venue. From the moment we arrived, the whole day felt personal, seamless, and genuinely special as if the place had been built purely for our wedding.
Evie, our wedding coordinator, is outstanding. She kept everything running smoothly and made us feel calm throughout our very big day. Nothing was ever too much trouble. If you asked her for a giraffe on the roof, she’d smile and say, “No problem” there will be a giraffe on the roof! That’s the level of magic she brings.
The entire team worked like ninjas transforming rooms, placing décor, and making everything perfect without anyone even noticing they were there. The venue is stunning, the staff are incredible, and my wife and I genuinely cannot thank them enough.
If you’re searching for a wedding venue, make it Ravenswood. It will give you the day you’ve always imagined.

Best day of our lives! 🤍✨

Our wedding at The Ravenswood was truly the best day of our lives, and we honestly couldn’t recommend this venue enough 💕

From the moment we found The Ravenswood on Bridebook, we knew it was something special. We arranged a viewing and, as soon as we walked through the venue, we completely fell in love. Even completely stripped back, it’s absolutely stunning. The scenery is breathtaking, and every room has that real “wow” factor. We didn’t need any more convincing, we booked our wedding on the very same day!

In the months leading up to our wedding, I was in regular contact with the team, especially the Accommodation Team. Every email was met with kindness, patience, and reassurance. No request ever felt like too much trouble, and they made the whole process so easy. Thank you to the Reception Team - you absolutely smashed it!

We were also invited to a food tasting before the big day, and from that moment I knew our guests were in for a treat. On the wedding day, the food exceeded every expectation. We had so many compliments from our guests about every course. A huge thank you to the chefs and catering team for keeping everyone’s bellies full and happy! Thank you as well to all the staff who worked so hard throughout the day, everything ran so smoothly and professionally.

The biggest thank you, however, has to go to our incredible wedding coordinator, Natalie.

From the very beginning, Natalie was so welcoming, kind, gentle, and genuinely caring. I know coordinating weddings is her job every single day, but she somehow made us feel like we were the only couple that mattered. No question was ever too silly, no request was ever too much, and she was always there whenever we needed her. Throughout the entire day she checked in on us constantly, making sure we were happy and asking if there was anything else she could do. Whenever I asked for something, it was done immediately.

Our venue styling was done by Mulberry Events, but I also had lots of my own personal touches that needed placing around the venue and on the tables. Natalie absolutely nailed every single detail. While I was getting ready, I never once felt stressed because I trusted her and the whole team completely. Everything was set up exactly as I’d imagined, and even better than I could have hoped.

Our wedding was honestly the best day of our lives, and we’re still talking about it. We cannot thank The Ravenswood team enough for everything they did. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made our day completely unforgettable.

A very special thank you to Natalie
Your hard work, dedication, warmth, and care meant the world to us. You played such a huge part in making our wedding everything we’d ever dreamed of, and we will be forever grateful. Thank you for making the happiest day of our lives so incredibly special. 💕

The absolute perfect wedding venue!

The absolute perfect wedding venue! We got married here in June 2026, and it was everything we could have asked for.

During the planning process, they were incredibly helpful, answering all 101 questions I sent them. As a bride, you don't always know what you need to ask, but they were always there to make sure everything was well organised and that any confusion was quickly sorted out.

Our wedding coordinator, Evie, was amazing throughout the planning process and incredible on the day, making everything as relaxed as possible, ensuring everything was set up to match our vision, and simply making it the best day ever.

I would absolutely recommend The Ravenswood to anyone looking for a magical wedding day!

Our wedding Day - 26/07/2026

Me and my wife chose this venue for our wedding on 26/07/2026 and we could not of chose a better venue. The staff, location, Food and organisation was perfect. Our wedding coordinator Georgia was so lovely and helpful. She made the day run so smoothly and made sure everything was in order. Choosing this wedding would be the best decision you make and you won’t regret. We had just under 100 guests which was no problem for the venue with some additional evening guests. The venue was so accommodating to all our requests and nothing was ever too much! The honeymoon suit is beautiful and made us feel very special. The breaks the next day were lovely too and every one of our guests enjoyed it.

The wedding of our dreams

I honestly can’t thank The Ravenswood enough. They helped make our day the most special day it could be, they take control over the day so that you can have the best day of your lives. The venue is absolutely stunning and all of our guests said that it’s the most beautiful venue they have been too. We will never ever forget what our wedding coordinator Georgia did for us, she was so calm and collected and as a control freak myself, she was excellent with dealing with everyone in such an efficient and friendly way. We are so lucky that we had our wedding there and hope to god that one of our friends get married there so that we can experience The Ravenswood again. Thank you endlessly

Just perfection!

Everything went so perfectly, and Natalie went above and beyond to make us feel like we were the only couple in the world getting married.

We stayed in the cottage the night before and ordered from the takeaway menu. The food was delicious, and sitting out in the courtyard on a sunny evening with our family are memories we'll treasure forever. The beds were incredibly comfortable, the shower was amazing, and there was both an iron and a steamer, which made it so easy to put the finishing touches on the dresses and the boys' shirts.

We had an early start on the wedding morning, but because we used suppliers who regularly work with The Ravenswood, we were able to access the getting-ready room early. It was just a short walk from the cottage, making everything so easy. The boys also had a late checkout from the cottage, where they got ready before walking over just before the ceremony.

All of the decorations and personal touches we had brought were simply left on a table in the hall for Natalie to set up. It completely took the pressure off my bridal party and allowed us to fully enjoy our morning together. It was also so special being able to see the wedding breakfast room all set up first thing—it really hits you that it's finally happening!

A full English breakfast was brought up to us, which was lovely. Although, because of the nerves, not much of it got eaten—exactly the same happened with the boys' breakfast in the cottage!

The whole morning ran impeccably. Natalie worked so seamlessly with all of our suppliers to make sure everything was absolutely perfect.

Just before I walked down the aisle, Natalie checked in on me, and the timing of the aisle walk was spot on. After the ceremony, our confetti walk was brilliantly organised by our photographer, celebrant and Natalie. We then slipped away for ten minutes to enjoy our first Long Island Iced Tea as a married couple. This is something The Ravenswood encourages, and I honestly think it's one of the best ideas. It gave us a chance to take everything in before returning to celebrate with everyone else.

Having our photographs taken around the grounds was such an amazing experience, and I can't wait to receive them. The Ravenswood is one of the most picturesque wedding venues. We also had Mulberry dress the venue and try out their new content creation service, so we're really excited to see those memories too.

The canapés and cocktails were fantastic, and every single one of our guests commented on how delicious the wedding breakfast was.

We also chose to have a toastmaster, which was a brilliant addition. His booming voice certainly kept everyone organised! That said, if we hadn't had him, I know Natalie would have done an equally fantastic job.

Throughout the drinks reception, wedding breakfast and room turnaround, our Spotify playlist played exactly as we had planned, helping to create the relaxed atmosphere we wanted for the whole day.

When Natalie finished for the day, Molly took over for the evening. She was just as lovely, and it was nice to have already met her the evening before while we were staying in the cottage.

The in-house DJ was absolutely incredible. I genuinely couldn't recommend him highly enough. We were on the dance floor all night, and so were so many of our guests!

One thing we had noticed at previous weddings was long queues at the bar, so we requested an extra member of staff behind the bar. It made such a difference, and several of our guests even commented afterwards on how quickly they were served. It really elevated the experience.

Our wedding day truly couldn't have been any more perfect. Every single member of staff played a part in making it everything we had dreamed of and more. Thank you, Natalie, Molly and the entire Ravenswood team for giving us the most incredible day. We honestly couldn't fault a single thing, and we'll treasure these memories forever.

Most amazing day

We honestly couldn’t have chosen a more perfect venue than Ravenswood for our wedding. From our very first visit right through to our wedding day, everything exceeded our expectations.

A very special thank you to Georgia, who was absolutely amazing throughout the entire planning process. She was always so helpful, reassuring, and organised, making everything feel effortless. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and her support meant we could truly relax and enjoy every step of the journey.

On the day itself, the entire Ravenswood team were exceptional. They worked tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly, allowing us to focus on celebrating with our family and friends. Their professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail made our day even more special.

The venue itself is simply stunning and provided the most beautiful backdrop for our wedding. We’ve had so many compliments from our guests about both the venue and the incredible team.

Thank you, Georgia, and everyone at Ravenswood, for making our dream wedding a reality. We will treasure the memories forever and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ravenswood to any couple looking for the perfect wedding venue.

Amazing wedding day!

As soon as we saw the Ravenswood we knew it was the venue for us. The grounds are stunning and Evie our wedding coordinator was absolutely amazing. Nothing was too much and somehow even though not obvious whenever I had a question Evie was there. It runs so smoothly and effortless that is of course because of all the hard work put in. Our day was perfect and I wish I could do it all over again.

Fairytale wedding at The Ravenswood

Where do we even begin? 🤍✨ From the moment we first viewed The Ravenswood over two years ago, we completely fell in love with it, and with every viewing afterwards, we loved it even more. It's such a stunning venue with countless beautiful spots for photos, and our guests couldn't stop commenting on how gorgeous the location was. We got so lucky with the sun too ☀️

Every member of staff went above and beyond to make our day feel so special. A huge thank you to Natalie, our wedding coordinator, who made everything run so seamlessly. She was calm, organised, incredibly supportive and truly made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. We were so grateful to have her by our side throughout the day along with Adam for our evening. They really ensure that the whole day is under control and all you have to do is soak up the magical day✨

In the lead-up to the wedding, we loved attending the group menu tasting and meeting other couples who were also counting down to their big day. It made the whole experience even more exciting. We also chose to have an individual tasting as we wanted a more personalised menu, and it was wonderful to sample our chosen dishes as well as the delicious cocktails. The only suggestion we would make is to offer a little more variety at the group tasting, as the menu options were quite limited.

The entire team genuinely celebrates the day with you. Their enthusiasm, kindness and attention to detail made us feel so cared for, and it really felt like they wanted our wedding to be just as perfect as we did.

Our only small minor point was around the drinks bar tab. We felt the way it worked wasn't communicated particularly clearly, so some of our guests paid for drinks unnecessarily while we unfortunately didn't manage to use the remainder of our tab so it was lost. Better communication around this would make an already amazing experience even better.

Aside from that, our wedding day was everything we had ever dreamed of. We only wish we could relive it over and over again. Thank you to everyone at The Ravenswood for making our fairytale come true. We will treasure those memories forever. ❤️

No better venue

The venue is absolutely stunning and caters for everyone. All our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and all the little details they put in place to make your day feel so special.

A special thank you to Evie, our wedding coordinator! We honestly couldn’t thank her enough, she truly made everything about the day that much more magical, nothing was ever too much and went above and beyond for us.

From start to finish, the whole process was so easy and whoever you spoke to was so friendly and they all genuinely took an interest in your plans and ideas.

If we could, we would do it all again and we would 100% recommend The Ravenswood to anyone and everyone!

Best day ever!!!

I’m not sure I can quite put into words just how amazing The Ravenswood were for our wedding! Not just the day, but the planning leading up to it. We were so blessed to have Georgia as our coordinator & I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better! She was INCREDIBLE. When it came to the day, I had full faith in her so I was able to just enjoy myself & soak it all up. One thing we were slightly worried about was the food, some venues have excellent tastings but they let you down on the day - not here!! Insanely good & we still have people raving about it now. We’ve spoken to a lot of our guests since & they have complimented everything, including the pillows!! If you plan to have your wedding here you’re super lucky & won’t be disappointed 🥰

Best Day Ever

We got married on 26.5.26 and the whole day was amazing!
From waking up in the cottage to leaving after the wedding.
Evie & Georgia were amazing setting up, decorating the hall also getting us drinks, and asking if we needed anything else.
Then max in the evening was amazing too.
The whole day, venue is fabulous.

Ps we need more fans! Also doesn't help we had the hottest day on record.
