- SSue B04/02/2025Wedding VenueWedding VenueThanks to Marcus and staff for hosting our wedding that we had planned for the past 16 months with the previous event manager. Although they only had a week to get their heads round my detailed requests they got everything spot on. The venue is beautiful and quirky... the gardens and function room are perfect for a intimate wedding.Thanks to Marcus and staff for hosting our wedding that we had planned for the past 16 months with the previous event manager.

- CCharlotte S04/02/2025My wonderful visitMy wonderful visitThis was a return visit, which speaks for itself. When I go to Leek, I wouldn't stay anywhere else. The room was a good size, with beautiful curtains, and an exciting bathroom. Parking was no problem. The welcome was exceptional. I so enjoyed my visit.

- KKaren A04/02/2025Lovely timeLovely timeWhat a lovely hour or two we all had this weekend in the beautiful bar, chatting away with the lovely, friendly, interesting owners. Not only are they really welcoming, charming, funny and pull a lovely pint, but they were so into music and played us loads of brilliant tracks, gave me some new tunes to listen to. Brilliant start to our evening.What a lovely hour or two we all had this weekend in the beautiful bar, chatting away with the lovely, friendly, interesting owners.

Location & Contact Details for The Silk House
Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
As I can't say all of them, I must say the most recent, it was clear the big day was all about them, a comment often said but this was about what they wanted for their day and it was all about confirming their love for each other, they were less focused on staging the event and all the family and close friends had a great time. The brides family stayed the night before so it was nice for us to get to know them and the groom on the night told his guest when it was time to go home.
What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Focus on what you want for each other, remember it is to celebrate your marriage not a block buster film, keep it intimate enough so that you have time to chat with all your invited guest and focus on what you like and want more than what you think your guests expectations may be.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
A groom performing in our cellar bar something he had been working on.
