wonderful people who have a wonderful venue.

Katherine, myself and our two twin boys celebrated our wedding at Altahammond House on the 10/10/2020 in the midst of the Covid Pandemic yet we had an absolutely amazing day. Heather and Tom are wonderful people who have a wonderful venue. The effort they have put into making our day so special was amazing. I would just like to thank Heather and Tom for being there for Katherine and I when we had our moments throughout the Covid announcements. Heather was always able to place a positive spin on the situation and cheer us up! Our guests have been raving about this venue! Heathers recommendations for alternative entertainment and cake makers meant that this was one less thing for us to worry about. The grounds and bedrooms are so unique. Katherine and I will never be able to say thank you enough. For anyone looking at this and arrange their wedding or special event, please contact Heather or Tom and book your special day. You will not be disappointed. Photo courtesy of @lightandwisdomphotography (https://www.lightandwisdomphoto.com)

quite simply 5 stars is not enough.

Would recommend Altahammond House for everything. My son had his wedding at this beautiful venue just recently. Heather and Tom with all their staff were fantastic. It was a brilliant day from start to finish. Can’t thank them enough. From accommodating our early start to the needs of all the guests, quite simply 5 stars is not enough.

The food was second to none

We recently had our wedding here and all I can say is wow, the venue is fantastic. Heather and Tom were a credit on the day and the run up to the big day. The food was second to none and no one went hungry at all. The size of the venue is phenomenal giving everybody the chance to sit inside or enjoy the sun outside. I cannot recommend this place enough and thank you for making our day so special.

service with a friendly smile!

I had never heard of Altahammond house, but we were so pleased to have been invited to a wedding to this beautiful place. So many different quirky cosy rooms to move around throughout the day. The staff were amazing, very friendly and attentive to the guests. It makes such a difference to have service with a friendly smile! The food was lovely, we definitely weren’t going home hungry, the food wasn’t just about quantity but also quality. I hope this isn’t the last time we get an invite to this lovely place!

OH MY WORD!!!

OH MY WORD!!! I would have no issues with recommending this venue. It was the most beautiful set up for a wedding I have ever seen. From the very beginning just visiting the venue Heather & Tom were incredible. Every last detail was thought about. They were so attentive to not all our guests but even more the bridal party. making sure we had food and drink. they really do go over the top and that extra 50miles. and it is so appreciated. The venue,the food, the staff are second to none, whole atmosphere was unreal. all our guests are still taking. I only wish we had more opportunities to do the day all over again. if you could get stars out of 10 we would be giving you 100. I think my husband and I have gained two friends for life. So from the bottom our hearts thank you so much Heather and Tom for everything you did for Cydne, Tiernans, Carrie and Andy. Your both Awesome. lots of love. xxx

Your search for an amazing venue stops here!

As a wedding photographer, I have just shot my first wedding in this amazing venue. It was the worst weather of the year, raining and blowing a gale. I was blown away for a different reason though. So many photo opportunities and the warmest welcome from Heather and Tom and their staff. The food was out of this world too and the whole place was immaculate. Highly recommend and I really hope I will get to work here again in the future. If I could give this venues more stars I would. Outstanding from the breakfast to the tractor hay ride we managed between the showers. The warmest of welcomes awaits you here. Your search for an amazing venue stops here!
