The dream venue

We cannot even put into words how wonderful this venue is, the setting, the rooms, the facilities, the staff, the atmosphere… everything!

From the moment we met Kystyna, we knew this was our venue, her energy and enthusiasm is amazing and she ensured every little last detail was perfect for us, and our guests were so impressed and couldn’t praise her enough for all her efforts.

The staff were all amazing, the day was planned to the minute and everything ran so smoothly without a hitch, the best day we could have asked for… nothing was too much effort and we felt so accommodated!

Pocock Wedding 05.07.2025

We had a wedding of circa 60 day guests and a further 40 for the evening. From start to finish we were managed with the utmost of professionalism and efficiency. Krystyna made sure every detail and request was dealt with and made us feel at ease. Weddings are stressful and we felt very assured that our day was going to go to plan

The best wedding day ever! The venue is stunning, we wanted ‘the barn’ feel but at a fraction of the cost! Beautiful grounds. Credit to Krystyna- the wedding coordinator and her team for making our day so special, every little detail, nothing too big or small was any issue. Very easy going and easy to work with!
The best day celebrating here with you all! Thank you

Amazing venue!

I can not recommend this venue highly enough!! We had our perfect wedding day here with the help of Krystyna the amazing wedding planner and the lovely staff here. We felt so supported and reassured all the way along in the planning process. The venue has lots of charm and is also more budget-friendly despite being such an incredible venue!

Wedding at The Talbot

. We had our wedding day in July at The Talbot. It was absolutely beautiful. Krystyna was amazing from the day we visited to the day we married. Krystyna made sure everything went to plan on the day - without any problems! Krystyna was always available to answer any questions and always replied to any questions whether big or small. The venue is an absolute dream. I highly recommend getting married here! Thank you so much for making our day so perfect in every way! Krystyna is an amazing coordinator and I can’t praise or thank her enough.

Fabulous venue!

We had an absolutely incredible day - thank you so much to you and the Talbot team. We felt extremely looked after all day and it was such a weight off knowing you were there to make sure things happened when they were meant to. Some of our guests commented how well the day flowed and how all the timings were spot on! 

We're so happy we chose the Talbot, we couldn't have asked for anything more from a wedding venue especially given the incredible value for money. 

The suppliers James, Jojo, DJ2K and Ether were fantastic and it's perfect that you have such close relationships with them as it made the planning so much smoother knowing they knew the venue so well. 

A huge thank you from us both!

A magical day!

We had our wedding at the Talbot last year in August. The day was unforgettable and stress free, thanks to the amazing Krystyna and her team. We’re heading back there next weekend to celebrate our one year anniversary and look forward to reminiscing about our wedding!

Beautiful venue. The most wonderful coordinator.

Where do I start? We heard about the venue through my aunt and fell in love with the cute coaching inn immediately. Then we met Krystyna. Her friendly can do personality and warming nature made us fall in love wother her as well. So much so, we cancelled the viewing of our second venue on the spot.
Krystyna had us at ease from the start. Nothing was too much trouble, as the two years of planning went on, we knew we could rely on her for everything as well as this, and we knew we had a friend for life now. One the day with Krystyna in control everything ran smoothly. Only ten mins behind time, and that was due to the registrars being
Late. I highly recommend this venue and Krystyna is someone who will help you bring your dream wedding alive! Thank you for everything.

July Wedding 2024

We got married at the Talbot in the summer of 2024. Every member of the team worked hard to give us our perfect day. Krystyna was amazing from the beginning of booking the venue right up to the wedding day. She offered great support and advice along the way and made sure all aspects of the wedding ran smoothly. We really had the most wonderful day at the Talbot and can highly recommend the venue.

Fantastic Wedding venue!

The Talbot was just a fantastic venue for our wedding on the 17th May this year. It was the only venue we viewed and when we met Krystyna we just knew it was the place for us. You won't meet another wedding and event planner like Krystyna, she is extremely experienced, personable and I felt like I had known her for ages. Krystyna and the Talbot were so flexible with our requests, and also had some great ideas and suggestions for our special day, as well as recommended suppliers that know the Talbot extremely well which made it really easy for us to book some of our main things like DJ, decoration, photographer and hair and make up. The weather was on our side on our wedding day which meant all of the guests got to make use of the all areas at The Talbot; the drinks reception in the garden and terrace was beautiful, the wedding breakfast BBQ was brilliant, lots of comments from our guests about how great the food was. The courtyard was just perfect throughout the evening, so many guests enjoyed having a drink and chatting out there, whilst others were throwing some moves on the dance floor inside. Krystyna was great at making sure everyone was where they were meant to be throughout the day and she even took Keith and I away for 15 mins before the wedding breakfast, got us a drink and some canapes and just said take some time together which was just such a lovely thing to do. We are so pleased that we had our wedding at the Talbot and cannot wait to go back on our first anniversary!! :-)

Perfect day

From start to finish the talbot krystyna and the whole team were incredible.

The venue is exactly what I envisioned and catered to my every need. I had regular contact and meetings leading up to the big day with changes and number being amended right up until the last minute. Nothing was ever too much.

Krystyna made me feel so at ease on the day and wiped my tears away right before I walked down th aisle. She keep me informed of the next steps along the way and made everything flow so seamless.

I cannot thank the talbot and all the staff for making my day so special! Just sad it’s over! I would do it all again in a heartbeat and choose you Everytime! X
