FAQ

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
We hosted an exclusive wedding a few years ago at Halloween. It was a usually wedding reception in the day and then before the evening reception started the guests went to get changed into costumes. The Bride and Groom hired face painters and even the staff were allowed to dress up. The bridal party even performed a 'flash mob' dance routine to Thriller by Micheal Jackson which was a great surprise for their guests.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
You wont be able to please everyone - so don't try! Plan for the wedding YOU want, not a wedding that everyone else wants.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
A wedding we hosted a few months ago named their tables after their favourite cocktails. They provided mini mason jars with cocktails to correspond with the table names as wedding favours - great personal touch.
Describe your venue in 5 adjectives.
Personal, professional, friendly, bespoke, knowledgeable
Where’s the best photo spot at your venue?
We have a little garden at the front of the hotel which we maintain throughout the year. Our nearest beauty spot is Park Bridge Heritage Centre which is about 2 minutes down the road.
What’s your favourite canapé?
Chocolate dipped strawberries in summer are beautiful.
What’s your favourite midnight treat?
You cannot go wrong with bacon rolls with lots of ketchup. Mini fish and chip cones are good too!
What is your venue's most unique feature?
Our staff! We really are a lovely bunch - when you book your wedding with us you become more of a friend than a customer.
What part of your business are you most proud of?
We are so proud of the industry awards we have won over the last few years - we are always blown away by the support our brides and grooms give us.
