A wonderful place full of winderful staff

We recently had our wedding at Holmewood Hall and could not be happier! From our first visit we could see that the venue was absolutely stunning, but we were delighted to find that the staff are so friendly and accommodating too. Our wedding coordinator Giulia was an absolute star. Nothing was too much trouble and she went over and above to help us make the day exactly as we wanted, offering suggestions when we wanted them on how we could make different ideas work on our budget.
One of the reasons we chose Holmewood Hall is that we knew it would be a brilliant setting whatever the weather threw at us on the day, and with the weather we getting in the UK these days that was certainly a good choice. Rain showers in the run up to the day meant the ground was too wet to have the ceremony outside, but I am actually glad for it as the Gold Room is stunning and the large mirror at the front means I could see all our guests who’d been arriving whilst I was getting ready. We were lucky enough to have a gorgeous sunny afternoon for canapes and games of croquet on the lawn. We had so many compliments from our guests on the venue, with people saying how exciting it was to have lots of different rooms each with a different vibe and how seamlessly the day moved from one activity to another. Anyone who is involved in events knows that this only happens when there is a brilliant, experienced team behind the scenes making it happen.
The packages the venue offer mean we were able to offer our guests much more than if we had found a venue and done things ourselves (and with much less stress!) Being able to stay onsite meant there was no hassle about getting to a hotel at the end and was convenient as our boys and their cousins were with us. A tiny niggle was that I couldn't get hot water for my shower int he mronig, but I imagine that was because people in all 18 rooms were trying to do that at 5minutes before breakfast was served. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. As was the food served at the wedding breakfast on the day (more compliments from the guests here.)
In short, we loved it and would highly recommend.

Best day ever!

We got married at Holmewood Hall on 4th October 2024. From the first moment we stepped into the venue and I saw the magnificent Gold room I knew this would be the perfect place for us to get married. We had the most amazing day which was perfectly coordinated by the whole team at Holmewood but especially so by our personal wedding manager Lee. Lee was always quick to respond to any questions we had in the lead up to the day and nothing was too much trouble for him.
We honestly wish we could do it all over again as it was a magical day. We would recommend Holmewood Hall to anyone looking for the perfect venue.

If I could do our wedding all over again I'd still choose this venue! ❤️

Holmewood Hall was an absolute dream for us 😍 we knew we wanted somewhere with exclusive use and it was a bonus that we could stay onsite the night before (cottage for 6 people) and the night of (20 rooms) the wedding. Giulia was our personal wedding planner and she was amazing, I felt completely supported in the run up to the wedding and all the staff on the day we're attentative and professional. It was our dream wedding and I know it wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for the wonderful team at Holmewood Hall!

Wedding - 20th August 2024

We'd firstly like to highlight and thank the amazing team at Holmewood Hall, specifically our Wedding Planner, Lee and the Venue Sales Manager, Katie.

Upon our initial viewing of the venue in 2023, we were instantly impressed by the venue itself and the warm welcome we received from Katie when showing us around. We had previously viewed other venues but from first walking into Holmewood Hall, we knew that this venue was perfect for us. Katie explained how our day would run from start to finish and all of the special touches we could include.

During the planning for our big day Lee was especially helpful in answering all of our questions and making everything so simple.

On the day of our wedding, everything went so smoothly thanks to Lee, with so many of our guests commenting on how professional and helpful the entire team at Holmewood were, especially Michaela, who ensured that all guests, including those with dietary requirements were tended to.

We were extremely happy with all of our suppliers, some of which were suggested through Holmewood's recommended suppliers list.

Our photographer, Adrian Dewey and videographer, Josh Hyde were amazing, making the whole day run so smoothly and including all of our guests; ensuring that all of our specific photo and video ideas were captured.

Katrina Kelly (hair), Jess - Sharpe Faces (make up), Debbie - Allensis (stylist), Michaella - House of Blooms (flowers) and Ambers Bakes and Cakes were all amazing and we'd highly recommend them all.

To make the most of the Great Hall we opted to hire a band for our evening reception. The Watchtowers were incredible, with all of our guests commenting on how amazing they were! With them learning our song for the first dance it made it that much more special. Ollie, Ryan and Jamie were all great guys and we'd highly recommend them!

Overall, we couldn't recommend Holmewood Hall more to anyone thinking of planning their wedding there! It is also definitely worth including the rooms, as they are all so spectacular, especially the Bridal Suite! We had seen one or two reviews with people commenting on the fact there were limited amenities in the rooms, such as TV's, however with everyone there to enjoy the event, no one even considered this an issue. Having all of our closest family & friends there with us the next day to continue the celebrations over breakfast was a lovely touch.

We'd once again like to thank everyone involved in making our wedding day so spectacular!

The perfect choice!

"Our wedding at Holmewood hall was an absolute dream come true. The venue itself is nothing short of breath taking, with both indoor and outdoor spaces that are simply stunning. Every detail was meticulously cared for, creating an enchanting atmosphere for our special day.

The staff, particularly Lee, went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their professionalism and dedication were evident throughout the entire planning process and on the wedding day itself. The level of personalized attention we received was truly exceptional.

The culinary experience was equally impressive. The food was not only delicious but beautifully presented, and the beverage service was impeccable. Our guests raved about the meal, and we couldn't have been happier with the dining experience.

Planning our wedding was a breeze thanks to the incredible support from the venue's team. They were always responsive, accommodating, and helpful, making the entire process stress-free. The venue's flexibility allowed us to bring our vision to life without any limitations.

We were thrilled with the overall value we received for our investment. The venue offered everything we could have asked for and more, without any hidden costs or surprises. We wholeheartedly recommend Holmewood hall to any couple planning their wedding. It's a truly magical place that will make your special day unforgettable."

Absolutely stunning venue with excellent staff

My partner and I had the absolute pleasure of hosting our wedding at Holmewood Hall in August 2024, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. The venue is truly stunning, offering elegance and charm in every corner. We were thoroughly impressed with the ceremony, the wedding breakfast, and the on-site accommodation—our guests couldn’t stop raving about it.

A special mention goes to our wedding manager, Lee, who was outstanding. He was quick to respond to any queries, seamlessly adapted to our requests, and ensured that everything ran smoothly on the day. I initially had concerns that the venue might feel a bit like a typical, impersonal wedding factory, but Lee and his team went above and beyond to make the experience feel uniquely ours. We are so grateful for their efforts in making our day truly special.

Absolutely Amazing

We had looked at quite a few venues in the area already and this one was the best. The moment we walked in the ceremony room we knew this was the place we wanted to get married.
The house is so lovely with many rooms for you to use. It kept our guests guessing on the day as they thought the evening reception was where we had our meal which it wasn’t. Our older guests liked they could sit in a quieter room with nice surroundings.
The staff are all amazing and nothing is too much trouble for them. Our guest commented on how professional and lovely they were.
The food, well can’t fault it. Food was hot when brought out and brought out in good time. The evening buffet went down a treat with the guests with it being filled regularly.
We stayed the night and lots of guests did too, they all loved the bedrooms and no room is the same.
Everything just went so smoothly you have someone on the day to go to and tell you where need to go etc. We really loved Holmewood Hall and definitely recommend.

Absolutely amazing!!

We are absolutely blown away by how amazing our day was at Holmewood Hall! We picked Holmewood because it is just a stunning venue, as well as being perfectly located for our friends and family (even though it felt way too fancy for us haha!). The package offered was exactly what we wanted (especially with the Christmas decor!) and with so many inclusions that we knew it would make planning much easier, and when I say the team at Holmewood delivered, they REALLY delivered!! We had Lee as our Personal Wedding Manager and he was absolutely amazing, nothing was too much trouble. He was so thorough with the details and went through every possible option for our day during our 6-month planning meeting. Katie was our initial contact with the venue, and she showed us round on our first visit, pre-booking - again, super thorough with so much information (things we hadn’t even considered at that point!) but she wasn’t pushy about booking at all, just very patient and explained anything we were unsure on. All communication with the team, either Lee or Katie, was spot on - any queries or concerns were answered really quickly, we had regular updates and check-ins either over email or phone call in the run-up to the big day and lots of reassurance! On the day, Lee was so lovely and a really calming presence who took all of our ideas and ‘on-paper’ planning and made it a reality. He managed to corral all of our guests and get everyone to where they needed to be at exactly the right time, and somehow managed to be present exactly when we needed him but not obviously hanging around?! Some sort of amazing wedding planner sixth sense! The rest of the team on the day were fantastic - the bar and waiting staff were so attentive, very friendly and more than happy to help our guests with whatever they needed. The food and drinks throughout the day were delicious too - from the canapés and welcome drinks through the wedding breakfast and the evening buffet… it was all stunning and we were never waiting for courses, everyone was served at the same time which was really amazing. I cannot recommend Holmewood Hall enough - if you want a venue that provides an amazing almost all-inclusive package alongside a fantastic team then you must consider Holmewood Hall for your wedding day. We also hired the rooms for our guests, and the breakfast the following day was also amazing. Thank you to Lee & Team, our day wouldn’t have been as perfect as it was without you all. We will be back on our 1st Anniversary for a dinner date!!

The most perfect day!

Holmewood hall was amazing from start to finish. All the staff were so attentive, organised and efficient leading up to and on the day. Giulia was always on hand to answer any questions and honestly made the day go flawlessly. We brought lots of our own decor to use and the team set everything up and packed away so carefully and it looking stunning.
All guests with dietary requirements were catered for perfectly and most of them commented on how must of a positive experience the food was.
The wedding breakfast was served and everyone said the portion sizes were very filling, there was evening food left over (unheard of).

The DJ set up the perfect playlist based on our likes dislikes and requests. The first dances were organised and worked perfectly. I would recommend getting as much confetti as possible for the indoor dance shot, as it came out stunning.

The catering team and cleaning team turned everything around so quickly it was like there was never any mess.

As a bride you might be anxious about not moving into the bridal suite until 11, but this honestly gave plenty of time to move everything over, finish getting ready and getting dressed perfectly for the ceremony. Guests commented on how clearly you could hear with the acoustics of the gold room for the ceremony, I would recommend the inside ceremony, for the use of the stunning mirror and for your guests to be able to hear you!

Holmewood also purchased mini golf which we added on last minute, this stays out all evening and some of our guests even got another round in the next morning before breakfast.

We would recommend Holmewood to anyone who asked, worth every penny! Giulia, Kala and team were perfect. Thanks again.
