A truly unforgettable experience

We had the most incredible experience with Horwood House as our wedding venue. From initial visit all the way through the planning process they were so friendly and happy to help; big thanks to Maisie who was so helpful when we called with any questions.

The day itself went seamlessly, and we felt so well looked-after by Norma and the team who I can't give enough praise to, including making sure we got our own plate of canapes so we didn't miss out.

The Manor suite we got ready and stayed in was gorgeous. The grounds were stunning with bluebells everywhere and cherry blossoms. We had our ceremony off-site at a church but our drinks reception was in the Manor and our wedding breakfast and evening reception in the Cook Suite and both rooms were perfect. The food during the wedding breakfast was absolutely divine, and the evening buffet was huge hit too.

Everything was better than we could have imagined and we really can't recommend Horwood house enough.

Stunning venue - we couldn't have asked for a better day!

We had an absolutely wonderful wedding at Horwood House. We were especially impressed with how amazing the food tasted and how early everything had been set up for us on the day. The ops team on the day were also super supportive and communicated throughout, so felt very stress free on our end and we were able to focus on other bits. This was echoed in the planning before hand where we were kept very much in the loop as to next steps and really appreciated the responsiveness to the plenty of emails, even when we were a little way out from the wedding.

The only minor points were that when we arrived the day before it wasn't particularly clear what to do or where to go. So, it might be worth having this conversation early on so things run more smoothly. We were also told that a large tent would cover the garden area a week before our wedding which we would have preferred being notified of earlier as it was not part of our original vision.

These were only minor issues and we did very much have the perfect day. We're very much looking forward to visiting Horwood again to enjoy it whilst we're less busy and able to relax and enjoy the food and spa even more!

The best day and BEST team

Oh there are not enough words.
If you are considering Horwood.. DO IT!!
Venue is absolutely stunning, food is 11/10. Did not get to try the evening buffet myself but everyone else told me it was great, but the wedding breakfast was just.. perfection.
As for all those involved in the big day.. WOW. What a credit to Horwood House the events team are!!!!
Norma - you are my hero, watched you coordinate a wedding Friday evening, manage the bar and then still be up bright and early on Saturday making every thing fall into place for our big day. Nothing was too much trouble, she was like a fairy godmother. Bar staff and everyone involved couldn’t have done more.

I wish I could praise you all more!!!! Thank you endlessly for making our big day so perfect.

Perfect fairytale wedding

Horwood house is a stunning venue with lots to offer. It is very modern and done up beautifully. The manor lounge is perfect for the ceremony with the short walk to the Cooke suite which is all inside. This venues was perfect for our autumn themed wedding. The manor suites gave my bridal party enough space to get ready in the morning. The men used a function room to get ready as well no which was great.

Absolutely amazing

Horwood house is the most perfect venue and we had the most perfect day! They were great at responding and helping with any last minute changes. The venue itself has recently been refurbished and is absolutely stunning and the grounds are beautiful - we had so many compliments on the venue. We only had one hiccup on the wedding morning with communication , we were told someone would come and get us to walk us down to the ceremony room but it turned out we were meant to walk down resulting in the ceremony being 20 mins late but other than that the day ran smoothly and we were really looked after! I would 100% recommend Horwood house for your wedding.

Amazing wedding venue!

THANK YOU Horwood House for a wonderful wedding! Special appreciation to Norma who was absolutely incredible, both before the day and on the day. The venue combines traditional (via the manor house) with modern (we love that the wedding breakfast room had air con!). They host many weddings and therefore know how to run smoothly on the day. Highly recommend!

The wedding of Mr and Mrs Brown

We had an amazing wedding day. The newly refurbished venue is beautiful. The staff were so helpful and attentive to any of our requirements. Our event manager Tamarin was very courteous and professional with no request being too much. Would highly recommend for other events aswell as weddings. Thank you Horwood House for making our day so special.

The most amazing day

Our wedding day was the most perfect day, better than I could have wished for. Everything I asked was listened to and nothing was too much for the planning team.

On the day, the staff were amazing. They went above and beyond and we truly were made to feel like royalty.

In particular, the food and beverage manager, Reshu.
He was attentive, informative, kind, genuine and nothing was too much trouble. I cannot recommend Horwood House enough as a wedding venue.

The food was amazing, our guests did not stop complementing the food and staff.

I just wish we could do it all over again.

Magical Wedding

As mother of the groom, I just wanted to thank all the staff who made Saturday such a special day, despite all the issues around these Covid times. The whole day was very relaxed and happy, due in no small part to the wonderful efforts of your staff. They managed to strike the perfect balance between professional and the human touch, making sure all rules were adhered to but not in such a way as to overtake the joy and emotions of such a memorable day. The happy couple have described the day as 'magical' - what more can I say?
