The team were literally amazing

The team were literally amazing from beginning to end, nothing we asked or wanted was too much. The communication throughout was second to none, and we were kept informed and up to date at every step. On our wedding day, they not have been more helpful. They genuinely went above and beyond every single expectation, and became a true part of our day and one of the guests, rather than just someone who worked there.

Many thanks for a truly wonderful day 💕

My daughter had her wedding here. It's absolutely beautiful. Fully recommend it. The staff were wonderful, cheerful & hard working. A special thanks to the security team, they made it all run smoothly & helped my 89 year old mum around the castle. Many thanks for a truly wonderful day 💕
