FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?

Every single wedding is different, that's the beauty of the space being a blank canvas! As such, there's no one wedding that we would say is our favourite - just specific elements from different ones that were amazing - like the singing waiters, the wow factor florals or an emotional aisle walk with your bestie.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Please do not sweat the small stuff - that is what we are here for! We are 100% behind you and appreciate every detail big or small is important to you. To quote one of our couples, "We are both utter control freaks but felt confident our day was in safe hands and were able to relax and enjoy our special day." V&J

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

There are so many to choose from, though we do love how unique you can be with your wedding favours. From Tunnocks Teacakes to hand picked pebbles from the beach where you got engaged! Those little details can be so personal, emotional, and something wonderful to share with your favourite people.

Describe your venue in 5 adjectives.

Romantic - Personal - Flexible - Relaxed - Rustic

Where’s the best photo spot at your venue?

Our secret garden is gorgeous all year round, an absolute must see for all photographers to get that wow factor shot of you both.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at your venue?

No celebrities that we can name but we've had a couple of furry VIPs who have stolen the show - particularly Gus the Dachshund!

What’s your favourite canapé?

As a joint decision, we're going to say any food in miniature form is a hit around here - we just can't get enough of them!

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

Cake! Though we all have a different flavour we love!

What is your venue's most unique feature?

The stairs make the most beautiful entrance into the ceremony. Just wow!

What part of your business are you most proud of?

That moment when everybody's spilled out of the ceremony and they're standing around in the Courtyard chatting, drinking and having their photographs taken - it's that happy, content, relaxed atmosphere, those smiling faces and the sense of celebration in the air.
