quite superb in every way

This is a special place. Just held my daughter's wedding here and friends and family occupied the house and ancillary accommodation for several days. It is quite superb in every way and the owner was always on hand if required. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this venue to anyone who is planning a special event as it far exceeded my already high expectations.

their hospitality amazing, genuinely first class

Me and my wife got married here and what an experience it was, Liv couldn't have been more helpful. She made the organisation on the day so stress free in that we didn't need to lift a finger and their hospitality amazing, genuinely first class. The accommodation and venue is done to such a great standard and after nearly a month our friends and family are still talking about it! Thank you Holesfoot.

Everything was perfect from start to finish

Stunning location and facilities for Sam and El’s wedding and their guests. Everything was perfect from start to finish. Staff are all very genuine, pleasant and helpful. Accommodation is very comfortable and very well equipped. And fortunately, the weather was just right - we couldn’t have wished for anything better.

Liv was amazing and was so flexible both in the lead up and during the weekend, we felt like the world was our oyster and that Liv was genuinely excited to help make our ideas come to life. The staff at Holesfoot are also fantastic, all of our guests commented on their fab service. Beautiful places around every corner, a fun and flexible approach that allows you to create your own wedding weekend, whilst staying in relaxed luxury.

the attention to detail is second to none

The house, cottages, barn and bell tents are all finished to such a high standard, and equipped with everything we needed, the attention to detail is second to none. Our guests that stayed on site absolutely loved their rooms and didn’t want to leave. The gardens are full of beautiful flowers and best of all…the freshwater pond is an amazing hangover cure!

the best weekend of our lives

Wow!!! We got married at Holesfoot at the end of July and honestly had the best weekend of our lives. Holesfoot has so many amazing spaces within the grounds and buildings, and we really made the most of this by using as many of them as possible over the weekend. It’s such a bonus having exclusive use of the venue - it really makes the place feel like your own.

the team here are truly special

Holesfoot is a dream. Not only is it a beautiful place to call your office for the day, because it is - the team here are truly special. Liv is the most welcoming host along with her likeminded, friendly and helpful staff. The venue itself looks like something from a storybook, every single angle is a perfect photo opportunity. But it’s not just the place that makes the venue, it’s the people, and these people, along with the place are extra special! Perfect place for your dream wedding!
