The Ferry House

From our very first meeting at the ferry house in 2021.We fell in love with the venue . The wedding team are all faultless ,they are always on hand to answer any questions , towards the final months Sam became our wedding co-ordinator and was with us on the wedding day seeing everything went smoothly. Which I can say it did , we had planned an outside wedding but due to the weather this wasn’t possible, so we had the ceremony in the barn instead. Our wedding breakfast was in the events suite and looked absolutely amazing The venue itself is picturesque and facilities are outstanding . The groom & groomsmen got ready in the garden room , myself and my bridal party got ready at mocketts cottages that also part of ferry house . We enjoyed every minute of our stay here . The food is outstanding , all the rooms that are available at the ferry house are decorated to a very high standard . Coming down for breakfast with our guests the next morning really added to our special time spent at the ferry house We absolutely had the most amazing wedding and highly recommend this venue .

We married here in August 2024, having viewed the venue and booked our wedding in July 2022. This place is worth the waiting list and every single penny. Our wedding day here was everything we wanted and more. The Ferry House really has it all… the food is superb, most of it is grown on the premises, and the drinks are locally sourced, the cocktails are an absolute knockout! When we visited this place for a viewing we were blown away - and when our guests joined us to celebrate two years later, they were similarly blown away with how beautiful it is here and the outstanding quality of the food and the drinks. We’ve been to quite a few events at beautiful places where the catering has been a bit disappointing, but the Ferry House is so special because it has both! The grounds are stunning particularly on a beautiful English summer’s day, which we were lucky enough to have. This meant we could marry outside at the beautiful gazebo, have our photos in the secret orchard and down by the water. Our guests enjoyed the grounds all day long, especially our page boys and flower girls who played in the grounds into the evening. When the sun went down, the moon came out and shone brightly above the estuary… it was just so gorgeous and actually moved one of our guests to tears! Our evening party in the events suite was wonderful too. Karl the DJ was great and so accommodating of all of our special requests. The build your own bowl evening buffet was brilliant and guests who’d travelled a long way to join us for the evening told us how lovely it was to actually have a good meal from the restaurant evening buffet at a wedding! We had rooms in the main building included in our package and a few of our guests booked rooms at the Coach House. The rooms here are AMAZING! Our guests loved their rooms and we adored the bridal suite. The furnishings were of amazing quality especially the jacuzzi bath and the ginormous bed which was so welcoming after such whirlwind of a day. The view from our bedroom window was stunning. We woke up early to watch the sunrise and drank a coffee in bed. It was just idyllic. Breakfast the next day was also next level… so tasty. The staff also put out leftover wedding cake on the bar so guests could enjoy some the next morning and take it home with them. A lovely touch! The team here really are superb. Maxine our coordinator went over and above to accommodate all of our requests to ensure our day was perfect. Communication throughout the planning process was thorough and the tasting we had in February was a beautiful evening, we were made to feel so special by Georgina who listened to all our feedback and helped us choose our menu… we were actually struggling because everything was so delicious! That’s how good the food is here! A few weeks before our wedding, the groom’s father was very unwell and ended up in hospital, so on our wedding day he needed some extra TLC and the ferry house staff went out of their way to make sure everything was accessible for him. They were also very accommodating of our little page boy with a severe nut allergy and were so professional, ensuring that everything was safe for him so he was able to get into the celebrations and have an absolute blast! We absolutely love this place and will be coming back for our anniversary. Our guests also want to come back for their own little breaks! It is so beautiful and so special here. The Ferry House really has it all…. we’d 100% recommend them for your wedding, you will not be disappointed. Worth every single penny for memories that’ll last a lifetime. P.S The new Garden Lodge is an amazing place to get ready as a bride. Some venues sort of just dump you in a random room but the lodge is so amazing to get ready in, it even has a little outdoor terrace and private bathroom. We were able to fit a bride, two bridesmaid , MOB, 4 page boys/flower girls, their mums, hairstylist, MUA and our photographer in with no problems!!!

A lovely venue in a beautiful location with great views. The staff were amazing as they took care of everything. It was the perfect day.

Our wedding day was magical, it was perfect. Every single detail of the day was wonderful. We opted for the 2 day wedding package. This gave us the fantastic opportunity to celebrate with our family and closest friends and spread our wedding over a few days. The day before we had time to relax and settle into our 5* stunning rooms (and be pampered with a massage) in the afternoon before spending the evening eating delicious food in the barn with our guests. In the run up to the wedding, our coordinator was great. No question was too silly. She made a feel so comfortable from the beginning to the end. In fact, every member of their staff were amazing, to us, our children and all our guests. The staff at The Ferry House took the stress out of our wedding day and everything ran smoothly. The personal touches and little gestures (postcards in the rooms and signage in the barn) from the team made us feel like we were special and they just couldn't do enough to make us feel comfortable. We hired a band for our reception, however the Ferry House DJ was awesome too, our Garage set was out of this world and the Take That medley at the end was fantastic, especially the sneaky last song that topped the evening off - thank you. The venue has a very rustic and warm feel, inside and outside. With the backdrop of the estuary and the stunning gardens (even at the beginning of spring they were beautiful) there were so many places to go for the perfect wedding photos. Every guest commented on the food - all either grown on site or sourced locally. We can say with our hands on our hearts, that our wedding was the best day of our lives - truly magical. Thank you xxx

We (Hullabaloo) absolutely love performing at the Ferry house! It's such a fantastic venue that never fails to make us feel right at home. And let me tell you, every single bride and groom who have hosted their special day there have had nothing but amazing things to say about their experience. We can't recommend it enough!

It's always lovely coming back to The Ferry House Inn. A beautiful location, great staff and delicous food.

We found the Ferry house to be an amazing venue, which was enhanced by the friendliness of its staff and setting. We found the food to be sublime, and the DJ Karl ensured the dancefloor was never empty. There are a number of gorgeous rooms to stay in and is remote enough to be very peaceful afterwards! We would definitely recommend the exclusive venue hire as allowed for a perfectly intimate celebration.

The Ferry House staff have been amazing. It was everything we hoped for and more. Every single guest felt that they well looked after, they felt welcome from the moment they arrived. The pamper room is an absolute charm to get ready in. We were an intimate wedding, we didn’t want evening food or a big dance party after (we evening full of laughter and drinks), they worked with us to make it as special as it was. I was called a relaxed bride, that was only possible because I knew the staff had everything in hand. Would definitely recommend the venue.

To the incredible staff of The Ferry House, Where do we even begin to express our heartfelt gratitude? From the very moment James and I set foot in The Ferry House, we were met with warm smiles and a sense of belonging that instantly captured our hearts. It was clear to us that this was the venue where our dreams would come to life. Throughout the entire planning process, your team made everything seamless. At every step of the journey, we had someone by our side to help, guide, and support us. Your kindness, care, and exceptional dedication were evident in every interaction we had. You all went above and beyond, ensuring that we felt supported and at ease on our big day. Words cannot adequately convey the depth of our gratitude for providing us with the most incredible wedding day. Our expectations were not only met but exceeded in every possible way. The flawless execution, the breathtaking grounds, and the exceptional food left us in awe. More than just a venue, The Ferry House became a warm and welcoming home for our families and friends. Your staff’s outstanding hospitality and the homely atmosphere captured the hearts of everyone present. The beauty of the grounds was matched only by the incredible dedication of your staff. Each and every one of them is outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect. We truly couldn’t have asked for more. Choosing The Ferry House as our wedding venue was one of the best decisions we made. From day one, you made us feel special, and that feeling continued every minute of our wedding day. We are simply blown away by everything you did for us, and our hearts are filled with love and appreciation. You made us the happiest couple in the world, and our wedding day was beyond special and unforgettable. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for hosting the wedding of the year and for creating memories that will last a lifetime. With all our love and gratitude, The Pantings
