Just perfect!

We are so pleased we found Moorhead country weddings, the lake was the most tranquil and peaceful place for our ceremony. It was a day we will never forget. The function area was just perfect for our wedding celebrations to continue. Thank you Mandy Tessa and family ☺️

The best weekend

As soon as we saw what Moorhead had to offer we knew straightaway that it was where we wanted to get married. The grounds, complex and apartments are amazing. Mandy and her family are very helpful, answer any questions, and gave great advice for ideas. They were also able to recommend outside suppliers. It was great having the bar onsite for the night before and on the day. It was also so amazing to have the luxury of staying in the apartments the night before, our friends and family were able to have quality time catching up and getting to know new. We had the best day ever and couldn’t have asked for it to go anymore smoothly. Thank you also for the lovely breakfast the next morning a great way to talk about the memorable day and finish off a great weekend.

Garden picnic wedding

Your venue is just lovely, the views are beautiful. The grounds worked perfectly for our chilled garden picnic wedding. It was a worry not having a marquee as the weather is always a worry, but great knowing that we could use the indoor function area and bar if we needed to! We would love to do it all again!

Stunning surroundings

I have been lucky to visit and cater at a few beautiful weddings at Moorhead and it’s one of my favourite venues. Not only does it have a lot of space to accommodate many people, but it also feels quite intimate. The stunning surroundings make it perfect for a countryside wedding. The owners of the venue have always been very welcoming. Flame and Dough

Relaxed

The atmosphere is nice and relaxed, the area quiet, with a pool, games room, pitch and putt and restaurant on site. It’s a little far out if you wish to go ‘out’ for dinner in the evenings as it necessitates a car journey, but the food and service in the on-site restaurant is exemplary so journeys out are not really needed!
