Our Wedding Day at the Claverton Hotel

We were married at the Claverton House Hotel in December 2021.

Kerry at the Claverton was lovely and so helpful to us as a couple. We met with him just after we got engaged last May and he talked us through many aspects of the venue and what they could offer us.

We fell in love with the Claverton and knew it was just right for us as we were only going to have a very small number of guests, and that was no problem for Kerry.
We were given a quote for exactly what we wanted and so we booked the venue the same day.

We met with Kerry a few times over the course of last year on the lead up to our wedding in December and we were always given the time needed to discuss what we wanted. He was always organised and kept a folder of our requests.

It was a very lovely surprise for us that our wedding package with the Claverton also came with the most loveliest of Toastmaster's, Paul Mitchell. He was such an amazing addition to our wedding day, and we highly recommend Paul. Having a Toastmaster on your wedding day to help with the general overseeing of the day is a must!

We were allowed to decorate our ceremony room the night before the wedding, and Kerry had made sure his staff had already put out the chairs for us to decorate. There was the option to have our ceremony outside in the pagoda but as we were having a winter wedding we didn't want our guests to get cold. It is a lovely option for couples to have their ceremony there in a spring/summer setting though!

The landscaped gardens are beautiful and there are so many places for beautiful photo opportunities with each other. This was one of the things we loved most about the Claverton.

Me as the bride, my mum, my sister and her children who were my bridesmaids and flower girl, all stayed in the family room at the Claverton the night before so we could all be there to get ready in the morning. This was most lovely, and we all had breakfast together the morning of the wedding before we began to get ready. The breakfasts at the Claverton are also top notch!

The wedding breakfast was lovely and all of our guests raved about the food - there are 3 menu options that you are able to chose, form Rustic, Classic, to Deluxe. We went for Classic and and had 3 choices per menu section. Gluten free and vegan options were also no problem.

The buffet Kerry's chef prepared for our guests that evening was amazing, there was so much food I'm sure it didn't all get eaten but it was very delicious.

Overall our wedding day was wonderful, and an experience us and our guests will never forget. Thank you Kerry, and all your staff at the Claverton for making our special day so wonderful.
We are forever grateful!

Simply Perfect

We got married in Feb 2023 and chose The Claverton as our venue. It's a beautiful place and ideal for a wedding. There is a lovely reception room where we had the welcome drinks, the ceremony room was perfect for our small ceremony and the function room was perfect for our large evening party. We hired the place out completely so had all the bedrooms too for our family and they were just lovely. The staff were amazing and Carran continuously went the extra mile for us from the first meeting until after the big day. I would highly recommend The Claverton.

♥️ What an AMAZING day ♥️

We got married at Claverton on Saturday and had the most amazing day! Nothing was too much trouble from start to finish. Carran, Kerry and the team worked tirelessly to make our day perfect both before and during the event. It’s a beautiful setting for a wedding with lovely gardens for the ceremony and pictures. And the function room and outside bar area were perfect for the reception. Cannot recommend highly enough…….. now just want to do it all again ♥️

We couldn't have chosen a more perfect hotel.
Owner and staff were amazing and the ceremony in the garden was wonderful on the lovely pagoda and the garden with all it's spring flowers was stunning.
We had so many compliments from our guests on such a nice venue, lovely rooms with the most comfortable beds.
A huge thank you to The Claverton.
Couldn't fault anything.

Magical

We booked claverton for our wedding, this is an outstanding hotel in such a beautiful setting. We fell in love with it on our first visit. All family and friends were staying at the hotel and everyone was checked in quickly and the reception staff were so helpful and friendly. The rooms are in keeping with the hotel, very clean and spacious with tea and coffee making facilities. We ate here twice for breakfast, there is plenty of variety with something for everyone, the fruit selection was amazing. Dinner for our family of 15 the eve before the wedding, food was gorgeous and again service was excellent. You cannot fault this hotel on the level of service you get, everyone is so helpful and go the extra mile. Our wedding was the most perfect day thanks to all the staff who I can honestly say worked so hard all weekend to make sure that everything ran like clockwork. The wedding breakfast was of a high quality, everyone really enjoyed the food. A huge thank you to all the staff and again I have to say everyone was amazing. We would definitely recommend this hotel to family and friends and hope to return next year for our first wedding anniversary
