- FFaith & Lewis10/07/2025Our 'Just Us' wedding!Our 'Just Us' wedding!We had our “Just Us” wedding at Merewood on Monday. Words cannot sum up how incredible the entire experience was. The hotel itself is breathtaking, beautifully presented, and a real peaceful retreat. Our day was made to feel so incredibly special from Adam’s friendly face greeting us, Amrit’s service throughout both our afternoon tea and ten-course tasting menu (real hats off to the chef too!), and most of all Teagan for coordinating the entire day, making everything run so smoothly.

- JJosh and Sian20/07/2021The BEST wedding!The BEST wedding!We were fortunate enough to be able to book to hotel for a 2021 July wedding (just before COVID restrictions ended unfortunately!). The first thing I will say, is that the Wedding Coordinator Helen is phenomenal. She took so much stress out of the process and literally gave us a step by step guide to our day. All through the day she was everywhere all at once it seemed and everything ran flawlessly! We booked the hotel out exclusively and I would highly recommend this for that extra special touch to your wedding. We had the run of the place and it was brilliant, the only people there were your guests and there was no where that was out of bounds or had people simply going to dine for the evening. The hotel is dog friendly and the views are spectacular, we got some simply stunning wedding photos as a result of the views the hotel boasts. It was worth every penny for the best weekend my wife and I have ever had.We were fortunate enough to be able to book to hotel for a 2021 July wedding (just before COVID restrictions ended unfortunately!).

- KKaren & Keith25/08/2020The most stunning location, we could not fault itThe most stunning location, we could not fault itWe would like to thank you so much for such a perfect day. Merewood is the most stunning location and we could not fault it. Our Just Us wedding was just what we wanted; and Helen has been amazing from start to finish, always reassuring us during these difficult times and stressing that a small intimate wedding is just as important as a bigger event. All the staff were incredible, but we would like to make a special mention to thank Mikey who made our 8-course taster dinner extra special with his enthusiasm. This is a day we will never forget and we are already looking forward to when we can return in the future to celebrate our anniversaries to relive the whole experience.We would like to thank you so much for such a perfect day.

The hard work of everyone was appreciated so much. We had the most wonderful time. We realise how lucky we were to have had our day given what’s happened over the last few weeks! Our guests loved your hotel as much as we did. They’ve all commented on how perfect everything was... all of them mentioned the fabulous staff and the outstanding food. Once again thank you all so much from the bottom of our hearts. We wish we could do it all again and couldn’t have wished for a more special venue that’s ran by the most wonderful people.

- KKayleigh and Sean12/10/2019Best day of our livesBest day of our livesWe got married at Merewood on 12/10/19, it was the best day of our lives. Communication in the run up to the wedding was first class. From the moment we walked in on Friday afternoon Helen, Lucy and the team looked after us, our family and friends like royalty for the full weekend. We had exclusive use of the house from Friday to Sunday, which was super special. The views from this venue are out of this world, it was like looking at a painting the morning of our wedding when I drew the curtains. We have received so many compliments from our guests about the amazing food, wonderful staff, spectacular views and charm of the house.
