- MMichael & Mikayla Nicholls01/10/2026A day we will never forget! A day we will never forget!We got married on 25th July 2026, and from beginning to end, our wedding day was absolutely fantastic. The support we received didn’t just start on the wedding day itself — it began from the very start of our planning and continued right through to the day after our wedding. Every little detail was taken care of, and the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. Their service was truly first class. They made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process, which meant so much to me during what can otherwise be such a stressful time. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and they were always there to help, advise and make sure we were involved in every decision. They helped us with everything from the flowers and decorations to the finer details of the day, and everything came together so seamlessly. One of the highlights was a surprise singing waiter for myself and my husband, which the team helped organise and incorporated perfectly into the dinner service. It was such a special and memorable moment, and the whole thing was executed brilliantly without giving anything away! A special mention has to go to Admiral, who was absolutely amazing. His professionalism, kindness and attention to detail made such a difference to our experience. He went above and beyond to make sure our day ran smoothly and that we were looked after every step of the way. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better experience. Our wedding day was everything we hoped it would be and more, and so much of that was down to the incredible team and the care they put into making our day so special. Thank you so much to everyone involved. We will genuinely never forget how well we were looked after, and we would recommend you in a heartbeat!We got married on 25th July 2026, and from beginning to end, our wedding day was absolutely fantastic.

- KKatie21/04/2026Perfect Reception VenuePerfect Reception VenueWe had our wedding reception here and couldn't fault it. The staff are lovely, the place has a cosy feeling but has a big reception room and plenty of space for guests inside and out. We loved having the courtyard directly from the reception room, private bar and private toilets too. Having rooms on site was a bonus for us as we had guests traveling from far. The food is wonderful and all of our guests were really happy, even the kids. We worked with Admiral when planning our wedding and he was We had our wedding reception here and couldn't fault it.

- TTracey & Ian02/11/2025This is the service that every couple wants for their celebrationThis is the service that every couple wants for their celebrationFor us, this was the perfect venue. It could comfortably hold the 80-100 guests we were expecting and enough rooms for guests to stay the night, at a reasonable rate. There are 2 outdoor areas, one with outdoor tables and chairs, the other a pagoda, and a lawned area. The location worked for us - near some family and for those that were travelling, easy to get to from the M40. What really cinched it was the staff - Megan and Admiral were fantastic. They understood our vision for the day, they provided sound advice, they communicated well and made sure that our day ran smoothly. Every time that we visited to plan our decorating ideas, we were made to feel welcome. They catered for Coeliacs, and other dietary requirements - menus were identical whether or not it was gf. (As a Coeliac myself, this was a huge relief - the other coeliacs were blown away - it's not often that venues will cater for us in this way!)For us, this was the perfect venue.

- RRosemary B31/12/2022Great atmosphere for a small weddingGreat atmosphere for a small weddingWe chose the venue for its location in the Chilterns and also for the layout of the hotel with indoor and outdoor spaces. Due to personal circumstances we were delayed in the planning of the wedding. Megan was very helpful and was able to accommodate last minute changes. On the day the function room was decorated beautifully. The guests enjoyed relaxing in the courtyard and we were able to set up some outdoor games for the children.
