Amazing wedding venue and team
have been remarkable, attentive and extremely kind. The menu tasting was a very enjoyable experience and making a final decision was challenging as all the food looked and tasted amazing. The big day itself ran so smoothly, even my other vendors made comments on how smoothly and timely the day ran. The incredible staff attended to our evey need without hesitation and always with a kind, warm smile. They even helped cut the children's food up and helped entertain them between courses. I really couldn't have wished for better and the day went off without a hitch and was very stress free and happy. The stunning hotel got so many compliments from our guest and the photos are beautiful. The room I got reading in and stayed the night before was big enough to accommodate all my bridal party without us being on top of eachother or cramped. The room service was excellent too. I cannot recommend the hotel enough and we will definitely be going back for our anniversary.

Very small wedding
We had a very small family wedding here in early March which we organised at short notice. It worked out really nicely and were able to host our guests for dinner in a private dining room (Glebelands) and book rooms for everyone to stay over night. Sarah was excellent, helping with the details such as looking last minute for pins for button hole flowers, and Mateusz looked after us beautifully at dinner. Their minimum package is 15 persons but they can do less - you need to ask and the menu may be off the a la carte but that is fine.

The best day of our lives!
We had our wedding 2nd March at Cantley and throughout had a great experience. From the moment we contacted Cantley, Emma was on hand to support us and answer all our questions, even ones we didn’t know we had, and guide us through the wedding organisation process, even decorating for us on the morning. The day itself went without a hitch, Dianne and Mateus and the team made sure it all went smoothly and made us feel relaxed, even helping pack up the car in the morning. The food was excellent, as was the service and everything was so slick. Our guests commented on how lovely it all was too. Thank you Cantley!

Great Wedding Venue.
My Husband and I got married last friday at Cantely and the staff where amazing! They truely looked after us. Our Wedding planner, Lara, was amazing from start to finished and guided us through what we needed to do. The last mintue changes we had did not phase the team at all, and the day went off like a dream. The venue is great for winter and Spring weddings, last friday the rain just poured down, but that did not hinder the day, as there are loads of great little spots around the venue to get photos done. The staff made our guest very welcomed on the day and everyone enjoyed the day and evening. Cantely is a great venue to have everything in one place which made such a dffierence and took the stress out of the day. You can also as a Bride, book into one of the suits (at a cost), so you can get ready the night before, which again made the day less stressful. we would definitely recommend Cantley House for a wedding venue, such a great day! Thank you from the Harden's for such a great day!

Wonderful Wedding Veue
The staff were especially amazing, coordinating everything so expertly - particularly the wedding breakfast - the service was wonderful and the food was first class. The Barn looked beautiful, we had over 70 guests, there was plenty room whilst also being cosy. In the evening the Barn was transformed into a party venue and we danced the night away and midnight came too quickly.

Fabulous wedding!
We loved our special day. We both felt that it exceeded our expectations and the whole experience from start to finish was stress free. Emma and her team were very professional on the day and communication between us and the venue throughout was very good…all questions and queries were answered via email very quickly and at no point did we ever feel they were too busy to discuss anything. There was only positive comments from our guests and lots of compliments about how nice the food was. They managed to give us the day that we had hoped for….a chilled and fun day for everyone! Thank you Cantley 😊
