Stunning venue

We had our wedding reception here and it was amazing! The food and service was fantastic and the staff were friendly nothing was too much hassle. Our original venue let us down 3 months before our wedding but Carol and the team pulled out all the stops and it was better then I could have ever imagined. After all the stress Carol made us feel relaxed and was so accommodating even at such short notice! Everyone was really impressed and commented on what a stunning venue it was

Can not recommend this place enough

Highly recommended for any function. Food was delicious plenty of seconds from just about everyone. Staff couldn't of done enough. Carol the events manager was amazing nothing was an issue. We had my 30th here I'm not the best at making decisions with the table centre peices but Carol and the team made sure it was perfect with personal touches Taylor made into parts of my job and life. Thank once again.

I can not recommend the garden at Eden enough, we had our wedding here on Saturday and it was just perfect, carol and the staff were amazing from start to finish nothing was to much trouble and had so many compliments from our guests for the organisation, the food was AMAZE!! and again all our guest commented on this!! A hidden gem in the Cumbrian countryside that definitely doesn’t get enough promotion, none of our guests had even heard of the place before!! They certainly have now thank you!

Stunning

We had our wedding breakfast and reception here in June and w can't rate the whole experience high enough. Carol was fantastic and ensured the day went smoothly. All our guests commented on what a stunning venue it is and the evening buffet was amazing! It was just perfect

Food was amazing

We had our wedding reception here in July 2019 and we can't thank Carol and all the staff enough! From the first contact to the day itself was such a pleasure! What we really loved was that everyone at The Garden at Eden helped make it personal and just how we envisaged, rather than many places that look at weddings as a business deal and money! They all really went above and beyond, and top everything off, the food was amazing! If we could do it all again we'd do it here without a doubt

Loved every moment

We first visited The Garden at Eden in March 2017. The moment we stepped out of the car we knew that was the venue for us: we loved the setting and how light it was inside the marquee. I liked how you could put your own mark on the place with your decorations and Carol was on hand to help make it the wedding you wanted it to be. On the day itself, we got bright sunshine (which obviously you can't plan for!) which meant that guests were able to be inside and outside the marquee which made the day

The venue was perfect

We held our wedding reception at The Garden at Eden on Saturday and it was amazing. The venue was perfect, the staff were helpful and nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was excellent, all meals were delicious and hot! The new marquee is even better than the last one, I would definitely recommend this venue to any bride looking to book a wedding
