Amazing setting, perfect day and incredibly helpful team!
We booked Huntsmill Farm because we fell in love with the cottage accommodation surrounded by the beautiful grounds! Having the cottages for 2 nights and being able to have our family stay on site with us was sooo special. It felt like the whole venue was yours for the weekend! Soo soooo special, beautifully clean and incredibly well kept gardens! Thank you Huntsmill x

Daughter and Son in Laws Wedding Day
Leanne & Andy’s wedding - 24th June 2023 On Saturday 24th June 2023 we held the wedding of my daughter Leanne and her Fiancée Andy, at Huntsmill Farm, Shalstone, Buckingham. I wanted to share our experience of the whole weekend at the wedding venue, as I know how difficult it is to decide on a suitable location for what is, one of the most important days in their lives. I cannot speak highly enough of the Huntsmill team and the wonderful setting, which is essentially a working farm. Emily and Olivia were excellent from the very start, helpful, polite and hard working. Nothing was too much trouble and although the whole weekend went smoothly, when problems arose and they did, they stepped up and remained calm and supportive the whole time. The accommodation was excellent, everything you would want in a venue. From the beautiful converted barns where the ceremony and Wedding breakfast took place to the accommodation and grounds, were superb. The moment we arrived on Friday evening to the moment to left on Sunday, the venue felt like a home from home. It was so tranquil and everyone commented on how chilled and relaxed they felt the whole weekend. The atmosphere ensured that Leanne and Andy, although nervous and no doubt stressed, were made to feel a million dollars. The whole experience contributed to the most wonderful experience and a cannot recommend the venue highly enough. Thank you to everyone at Huntsmill Farm from the Page and Thorpe families. You will forever be part of a very special event in our lives. Best wishes Martin Page - Father of the Bride

The best day ever
From the 1st time viewing the venue I fell in love it. Was everything I imagined. The staff are all just amazing at what they do there. From the planning of out wedding to the actual day, they were fantastic. They allow you decorate the venue how I wanted, following their guidance. They were always quick to respond to any questions we had. On the day, wow what can I say, 10 out of 10 rating. Our co-ordinator Emily was just fantastic, she kept everything on time and running smoothly, she was calm and felt like she was one of the guests not a member of staff. They really do have a fantastic team on board. We also loved that we had exclusive use of the venue for our wedding weekend, which made it more special as everyone that was there were our guests. Wish I could do it all over again as it really was a magical day

Atrocious owners, proceed with caution
We booked this venue in January 2020 (pre pandemic) for July 2021. Unaware about the chaos and stress that was about to ensue. The pandemic hit and we were constantly worried about the wedding going ahead with all the restrictions that were in place. We’d hoped that by July 2021, things would be more normal. Up until this point everything seemed fine in terms of interaction with the owners. Fast forward to May/June 2021 and the restrictions had been extended. Meaning we’d have to cut our guest list, couldn’t have music etc. Far from the special day we’d planned. We explained this to the owners, hoping they’d sympathise but they couldn’t have cared less. We asked to rearrange. They ‘allowed’ us to rearrange but at an extortionate cost to us - despite us urging them for a fair compromise. They advised us we’d have to pay 100% cost of the original date we wouldn’t and didn’t have, AND 50% of the new date and this was non negotiable. (Baring in mind as nothing happened on our original date, the losses directly associated with our day would be very small). During this time Henry was extremely unpleasant to us. I understand businesses were under pressure at this time, but businesses also had significant financial support from the government via grants and being able to furlough staff etc - which I’m sure Huntsmill farm made the most of. We spoke to a solicitor for legal advice, but simply didn’t have the funds to proceed down the legal route, so we had no choice but to pay. On our wedding day, Henry barely said two words to us. In fact any conversation with Henry following the arrangement of the new date felt very curt, negative and stressful. Had I known they were just out for money and had no morals, I would have spent mine and my husbands hard earned money elsewhere. I don’t wish anyone to have the same experience we did.
Response from the venue
Hello Sarah, I'm sorry you've felt the need to resort to this. We certainly did care during the extensive communication with you both, especially Phil. How you can claim I was unpleasant to you and didn't talk to you on your wedding day is beyond me. I worked hard to deliver the seamless day that you had. I believe this review comes down to not getting what you wanted due to Covid. We have been very understanding of the pandemic effects in offering you the options that you received. Henry

I felt I didn't have to worry about a thing.
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to all the staff at Huntsmill Farm. Emily and Hannah were absolutely fantastic and made everything so easy for Jackie and I. I felt I didn't have to worry about a thing. You are both a credit to Huntsmill Farm and the service you supplied was outstanding. I don't think I can thank you enough. You all did a wonderful job and you made mine and Jackie's day even more memorable than it already was. You actually went above and beyond. So a massive thank you.
