All our guests commented on how stunning the venue was.

Well, what can i say about this stunning wedding venue and the amazing staff at Solton Manor.... The day Red and I turned up on the off chance of looking around this beautiful place we knew straight away this was the one. We were greeted with the lovely Jackie who we instantly loved. Her warm, kind, professional manner shone through. She showed us around the Dutch Barn and then the magnificent Manor House and told us all about the history of it. From this moment we were hooked. We then got to meet the wonderful Karen who was equally friendly and very helpful. And so it began..... The day was everything we wanted and more. From the stunning grounds to the magnificent Manor House, to the happy friendly staff and the fantastic team work from Karen and Jackie. We couldn't have wished for more. You made our day :-] All our guests commented on how stunning the venue was. Family and friends that stayed in the Manor were blown away with its beauty. Also i need to shout out to Teresa at Invitca Caterers based at Solton Manor...WOW...food was amazing and plenty of it so thank you to them. We cannot thank these guys enough for making our day as special to us as they did. We would highly recommend it :-] xxx

We looked at many venues for our wedding but it is impossible to not be amazed by the beauty of Solton Manor

Last weekend of July 2024, was the best day ever. We looked at many venues for our wedding but it is impossible to not be amazed by the beauty of Solton Manor as soon as you start the drive up, keeping in mind we first looked at the venue on a rainy day in February and then it was hard to believe what it would look like on a summers day but it looked absolutely gorgeous. We would personally love to thank Karen, Jackie and all the team there. The bar manager was great too, Karen was fantastic from start to finish of everything and was there to answer the many questions we had and if Karen wasn’t able to then Jackie was there. The whole team made sure we had a great day and we can’t thank them enough because genuinely was the best day of our lives, we had a big wedding with lots of guests and an even bigger party and every single one of them also complimented on the venue and how they all had a fantastic time too. Their partnered caterers were also fantastic ‘Invicta Design’ the food was gorgeous and the evening buffet was exactly what was needed after a big day and we can’t thank Teresa enough for again being there from start to finish.

I cannot recommend it as a venue more highly.

My husband and I got married at Solton Manor in April 2024 and I cannot recommend it as a venue more highly. From the moment we had our first meeting with Karen and Jackie we knew this was the venue for us; their warmth and passion really came through, and we left feeling that they would do anything to make our wedding day special and unique for us. And they did! The team at Solton Manor are absolutely brilliant, and couldn't have done more for us both leading up to the wedding and on the day. Everyone commented on how stunning the venue is and how friendly the staff were. We also stayed in the Manor House on the night of the wedding with our families, and it is just beautiful, and lovely to have a relaxed breakfast there the morning after the wedding! Also Invitca caterers based at Solton Manor are incredible - the food was sensational, everyone loved it, and Teresa was so lovely to work with. We cannot thank everyone at Solton Manor enough for making it the most special day of our lives, we are forever grateful 💖
