The day was perfect.

We got married at seckford hall last Saturday. We cannot thank them enough! The day was perfect. The whole planning team were excellent leading up to the day, and Georgia was a star on the day, so organised but also chilled and fun. We were blessed with a sunny day and the grounds looked beautiful. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. Lots of our family and friends stayed at the hotel and spoke highly of their rooms. Our honeymoon sweet was so beautiful we didn't want to leave.

Absolutely the best day!

My husband and I got married here back in May 2023. We had absolutely the best day we could have imagined. Claire who supported us from the initial enquiry up to the day of the wedding was amazing, nothing was ever a problem, and she communicated well throughout the process. Georgia who was our coordinator on the day was absolutely incredible, she put us both at ease, was a calm presence and was so friendly and personable. The food at the wedding breakfast and for the evening was fantastic.

Stunning

We stayed in this beautiful hotel for just 1 night as we were going to a wedding locally. The hotel was stunning. The staff were 1st class, they couldn’t do enough for us. Can’t thank everyone for making our stay such a pleasant experience. We look forward to going back so we can have more time to enjoy this beautiful building and all the facilities on offer .
