- JJosh & Linda14/06/2025ABOVE and BEYOND!ABOVE and BEYOND!We hired 'The Star Chambers Marquee' to host our wedding reception on the 5th June 2025. The Marquee its self is beautifully decorated, clean, spacious and elegant, whilst being unbelievably affordable. We had 70 guests for dinner but I would guesstimate 115, give or take, could comfortably and easily be seated within this space, whilst still having room for that all important DJ & Dancefloor ;). The hire included an outdoor courtyard space with a beautiful purpose built and well stocked bar, outside seating area and ample washrooms for guests. We also booked half of the hotel rooms Stone Court offer for that evening. One word.. WOW! Huge, clean rooms with all the rooms and communal areas full of vintage and antique furniture and decoration. We primarily dealt with Saban throughout the booking and planning of our reception. He was accommodating, organised and he couldn't do enough to ensure our day was a special one. In summary, if you haven't guessed by now, I highly recommend Stone Court House as a wedding/ reception venue Thank you so much to the owners of Stone Court House, Saban & Belinda, for going above and beyond to make our wedding day as special as possible! You have both been the talk of our wedding since with everyone having mentioning how lovely you both are. Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts.

- VVacation11742829/07/2024Beautifully restored 700 year old house.Beautifully restored 700 year old house.Fantastic and beautifully restored house. The rooms have four poster beds and some have roll top baths. Easy access to the hotel initially by pin code and then access cards once in your room. There are numerous lounges and sitting rooms with beautiful décor including a suit of armour etc. It was warm overnight and thankfully there was a fan in the wardrobe. Would definitely stay again and next time request cotton sheets over satin/silk. Beautiful accommodation!!Fantastic and beautifully restored house.
