Description

Hornsbury Mill is a beautiful lakeside hotel and restaurant providing a fabulous setting for weddings and functions. Careful and sympathetic conversion of this historic corn mill means many of the original features remain, including a working water wheel, making it a fascinating venue full of charm and character. We are lucky enough to have a romantic lakeside gazebo for outdoor ceremonies and our intimate candlelit cornloft for indoor ceremonies. Our contemporary Lakeside Suite and stunning Orangery overlooking the lake and gardens, are the perfect place for your reception. We have a dedicated wedding coordinator who will work with you to bring your wedding vision to life and we take great pride in caring for our couples as they start a new chapter of their lives together.

Perfect day, made even more perfect by the staff

We had the best wedding at Hornsbury Mill almost 1 year ago. We were both so anxious but Jane and the team made us feel so comfortable and took almost all the stress away (as a bride I don't think you can ever not be slightly stressed). They were able to help answer and queries we had and all the guests commented on their friendliness and how smoothly the day went. Would definitely recommend.

Ideal venue for our wedding

After 16 years together my now wife and I finally tied the knot. We wanted a very small, intimate wedding. This venue was perfect for us in every way. From the very first meeting to the wedding itself, staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Even with some minor adjustments on the day they ensured everything ran like clockwork, which allowed us to enjoy the day. The wonderful grounds allowed us to capture some beautiful photographs to allow us to remember this special day. We could not have wished for anything more.

An amazing place to tie the knot!

We enjoyed our day getting married at Hornsbury Mills, the weather was just amazing, we had a visit from the Peacock! The venue is really intimate and the staff were very friendly. The food and drinks packages were great and value for money. We hired the whole venue and our guest had no complaints and said the rooms were lovely with a smooth check in and out service. Our day went very smoothly. Thank you Hornsbury Mill.

A very lovely day indeed

The wedding was planned last minute after I had just had a baby. Nothing was too much fuss or too difficult for Jane and the team. We were made to feel like we were home as soon as we walked through the door. Jane was on hand whenever and for whatever we needed her for. Zoe was absolutely Exceptional even with tasks that wouldn't considerable be a "normal role." We truly had the best day of our lives.

Winter Wedding 2023

Since we walked in through the door to book our wedding to the morning after our big day we've been made feel like the most important people on the planet. We had the minimum to worry about, only had to invite people, organise decorations and cake and the rest of the planning amazing Jane and Paul alongside with Zoe and Emma done. They guided us through the entire time of planning and the big day. We have been left with nothing to worry about and they made sure we enjoyed the big day and spent quality time together. We felt like we've been married by our very own best friend! And if you have issues with your family or worried about something, Jane will make sure you are being protected and you will have nothing to worry about! One of the best places to get married at! Simply, run don't walk to book your wedding venue at Hornsbury!!

Outstanding venue with the most incredible staff

We looked into a few venues for our wedding but with my brother having gotten married at hornsbury mill several years earlier and knowing just how absolutely stunning the venue was, we wasted no time in booking an appointment to come and book our wedding and we couldn’t of chosen a better venue, Jane and her amazing staff made our day as stress free as could be and nothing was too much trouble, our day was truly amazing and all the guests could talk about was what a breathtaking venue hornsbury was, the food was outstanding and we were waited on and looked after so well, the bridal suite was incredible and luxurious in so many ways, I recommend hornsbury mill to anyone who wants their special day to be just simply perfect, our wedding day will always be the best day of our lives and we can’t thank Jane and her staff enough for that and also for hornsbury mill being the most beautiful and breathtaking venue that it is.
