Genuinely the best day of our lives!
From the moment we viewed Rockbeare, we knew it was the venue for us. The fact that it is exclusive use of the grounds and house sold it to us as well as the beautiful manor itself! All the staff were incredible throughout our planning and were on hand for any question big or small. Our wedding was on 9th March 2024 and it really was the most special day. I stayed in The Dairy the night before with my bridesmaids which was comfortable and kick started the wedding weekend. The wedding itself was everything we dreamt of and more! Steph was our wedding coordinator for the day and she was just fabulous! She made us feel incredibly comfortable and catered to all our needs for the day. Leah was also amazing and made sure our music was played and helped me time my walk down the aisle to perfection. I could continue writing everything in detail, but in a few words, Rockbeare is honestly the best wedding venue. For the value for money, you will definitely not want another place to share your magical day. I wish I could do it all over again!

We wouldn't change a thing!
We just wanted to email to say a massive thank you. We are so overwhelmed with how perfect everything was. You were both incredible, so attentive and we felt so calm and relaxed all day. Every single guest complimented us on how amazing the venue was and how well run it was, so huge credit to you. The food, was FAB. It was so nice, again, all guests said that the beef was unbelievable, I think they even tried to get tips on how it was cooked!! There is absolutely nothing I would have changed, you did an absolutely phenomenal job and I will recommend rockbeare every day for the rest of my life! Some of our guests have already recommended to people because they were just blown away with how stunning and well thought out everything was on your end. Davy you were so attentive, always asking if we were ok or needed anything and that meant to much. Throughout this entire process, you have been incredible. So responsive with our questions, supportive with anything we wanted and thank you so much for everything along the way, it’s been flawless. William, thank you so much for helping us set up the day before and for the breakfast in the morning too! You were a smiley friendly face throughout the whole event! The pizza and cake to our room made our night! We genuinely thank you from the bottom of our hearts, if I could do it all again exactly how it was I would, there was nothing I would change, you smashed it out of the park and all our guests were absolutely singing your praises. We are so sad it’s all over, but if you host the dinner and stay next year like you did this year, best believe we will be there!! Have amazing Christmas’s, you all deserve it!!

Well done!
Hello Rockbeare Manor, I am emailing because I was blown away by all your employees hard work during the wedding. As a guest who has been in the hospitality industry since my 20’s , I cannot not praise enough to your young staff, they were exceptional. Mature, confident , took charge of all aspects of the day. I love your venue, the food was utterly impeccable and faultless. Such a shame I am already happily married, but I would wholeheartedly recommend your prestigious establishment.
