The most perfect day!

We had the most amazing wedding at Abbey House on Sunday 18th August. I could not thank the wedding team enough, especially Lauren who was like a breath of fresh air from the beginning to end. I really feel like the day would not of been possible without all her and the teams hard work. Lauren answered all my questions quickly and nothing was to much trouble. On the big day Rob and Lauren made myself and Daniel feel so at ease so we were just able to enjoy our day. The staff at Abbey House were first class, everyone was friendly and welcoming. The whole day was absolutely perfect and Lauren really is the best in the business, we will be forever grateful to her for making our big day come together!

Dream wedding

We had the most perfect wedding at Abbey House Hotel. Laura and Lauren the wedding coordinators were just amazing. Nothing was too much trouble and they made our woodland wedding dreams a reality. The attention to detail was just phenomenal from the decor to the food and the overall service that we and our guests received. They really did think of everything and even helped us arrange a pre-wedding celebration meal the evening before the wedding for our family and friends that had travelled up and gave us our own private dining experience. All the staff at Abbey House went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and even let us plant a sausage in the gardens in the hope of good weather for our wedding (it worked). The food was amazing and it was such a nice touch to be able to offer our guests a variety of dishes for our wedding breakfast rather than a set meal. The other wedding suppliers that the coordinators recommended was so helpful as well when planning a wedding in an area not local to us. The grounds are beautiful (hence why we wanted an outdoor wedding) and just a short stroll takes you to the Abbey ruins. The rooms are next level in terms of decor and cleanliness and the honeymoon suites are just incredible. We will 100% return for our 1 year wedding anniversary, if not before. Abbey House is so reasonably priced whether you're going for a short stay or thinking of booking your wedding or special occasion with them and we cannot praise the staff, building and grounds and location enough. Thank you for giving us the most incredible wedding and making our family and friends stay so fabulous!

We wanted a small but special day, and the incredible team at Abbey House gave us the dream! Value for money, and the ability to customise everything to our specifications. We were given lots of excellent advice when it came to planning, and on the day they had everything under control.

Winter Wonderland Wedding

A massive thank you to Lauren & Laura & the rest of the Abbey house team who helped us plan, prepare & run our magical wedding on the 2nd December 2023, even though it dropped 6 inches of snow on the morning of the wedding they made sure us & our guests were well looked after. The drink & the food flowed, sore feet were had from dancing, so thank you to our DJ Pete Murphy for recreating the 90’s club vibe.
