Amy F. Sent on 16/07/2024So pleased to have chosen this incredible venue!
The team at Grand Villa Heights have been absolutely amazing. From the early days of us planning our wedding they have been super responsive, helpful and have gone the extra mile in making our day special, right through to executing everything perfectly on the day. We couldn’t have wished for a smoother operation! Their experience shone in that nothing was too much for them and everything was carried out with ease, which meant we could enjoy our day without any stress. The food was delicious and the service was impeccable. The venue itself is absolutely stunning - it has such a magical feel you don’t find anywhere else and the views across the rolling hills and north sea are absolutely beautiful. There is lots of space within the hotel and on it’s grounds and it has a very relaxed feel, while still being special of course. It’s perfect for any wedding large or small and we highly recommend it. We would have our wedding day all over again if we could!

From start to finish the staff and the hotel were wonderful. Gemma originally took us around the venue to show us how beautiful the wedding areas were. Ben then took over the wedding planning, and managed to organise the perfect day for us which was then executed perfectly by John and all of the staff on the day. You can tell everyone who works at the hotel loves their jobs, as they will go above and beyond to make your stay just that little bit more memorable.
On the day, we had breakfast brought to the bridal suite (lodge), followed by some of the pre wedding brunch bites. The weather turned sunny the hour before the wedding, we couldn’t believe our luck! What great views to look out onto whilst you say your “I do’s”
Post wedding drinks reception was orchestrated so well with all our guests saying how amazing the food was.
The wedding breakfast was served very quickly, my grandma (97) said everything was “very hot and tasty”. The other guests said how lovely the beef was and the vegetable wellington was delicious and very different from the usual risotto vegetarian option. I loved the fact we had HUGE Yorkshire puddings and silverskins in the gravy, yum!
The transition into day and evening shift was seamless as we held our evening reception in the “chapel”. This was decked out ready for the guests after the meal. Guests couldn’t the dance floor, chat at tables or relax in the private bar. Some guests with children even started to play big jenga in another room of the hotel away from the noise.
We had a perfect day and have absolutely no regrets thanks to the venue and all its wonderful staff!
We will hopefully revisit on our anniversary next year!

Miss K. Sent on 08/01/2024Superb and very professional.
A wonderful venue that all our guests thoroughly enjoyed. Some have even been back since.
One guest had a two month old, their room wasn't due to be ready until after our wedding ceremony but the venue got their room ready before so that they could enjoy the day with a base for their little one.
We were made to feel like royalty throughout the entire day. They are magnificent. -

The most magical day
Our wedding day was perfect from start to finish. Raven Hall was the most amazing venue for our day and the photos truly capture how beautiful the setting is, our guests wondered why we were getting married so far from home...until they saw the view. Everyone commented on how wonderful the place is, both in the stunning views and the very attentative staff. The team at Raven Hall were absolutely amazing right from our first visit, to the finishing touches on the morning of the wedding, nothing was too much to ask and the team put us at ease with their knowledge and advice on timings of the day and confidence that everything would be perfect. The team of staff who helped us on the day really went the extra mile, with a particular shout out to Ben who made sure everything was running smoothly and was always available to help. -

Our day was so dreamy and perfect at Raven Hall Hotel. Staff couldn’t do enough for us, whilst being discreet throughout the day’s events. Guests commented on the high quality of food, for both the three course meal and the evening buffet. Not to mention the views that money just can’t buy!
Thank you for giving us our special day!Grand Villa Heights's reply:
We are so happy to read your review Maria.
Your day was just perfect.
We look forward to seeing you again soon, Gemma, Ben, John and all the team. -

We can't recommend Raven Hall enough - what a venue! The views speak for themselves but the venue itself but the food and the service were exceptional! We got married in June 2023 Gemma, Amy and Ben in the run up to the wedding were amazing very professional and even managed to order in some special beer for our wedding which was really important to us. John and the team looked after us on the day. We had a disabled guest and John inpartcular went above and beyond to ensure they were looked after when it came the ceremony, meal and photos. The team are well versed in weddings and it showed but we still felt like the experience was personalised to us, for us it was the little touches - it took a lot of stress out of the day.
I woudn't have any hesitation booking a wedding or special event with them, all our guests said how amazing the venue was and the food was superb! Can't wait to go back and stay again. -

From our very first interaction, Raven Hall’s staff were incredible. Communication was always clear and I never had to worry that I would be left hanging and not get a response. Gemma lead the way in the early stages. She was so knowledgable about the whole process and made us feel very at home and comfortable. She tirelessly answered all emails and pointed me in the right direction when the answer to my question was in someone else’s domain. Ben helped us to finalise our plans and chatted us through the 12 week pre-wedding appointment. He was always happy to answer my questions via phone call or email and ensured we had everything we needed on the morning of the wedding before handing us across to John who was our Master of Ceremonies for the day. John was lovely, kind and organised. I never felt like we were rushed but we were guided through the day by his leadership and I never got to thank him on the day but I really appreciated his calm and cheerful demeanour. Amy helped to finalise all the financial details including our final bill and paying for the extra night of our room. We only spoke via email but her emails were always clear and timely. Alin was the only other staff member we got the name of and he set up our beautiful banquet style tables the night before our big day. He was very friendly, listened to all our instructions and even decorated our tables with the home made decorations we had brought with us which took a huge weight off my mind so a big thank you to Alin. All staff members who took care of us on our wedding day were dedicated, professional and polite. The staff member who served us breakfast even rearranged the dining room the morning after our wedding so that our guests could sit together which was lovely and much appreciated! Unfortunately I didn’t catch his name. The whole process felt positive and calm which is exactly what we had wanted. I was also very impressed with how dedicated the catering staff were as we had many dietary requirements and all requirements were catered for including specific vegan and lactose free plates for guests at the evening buffet. They loved that little personal touch. There is so much I could say about this venue to extol its virtues but what stood out to me most was the staff and how dedicated they were to making our experience memorable. -

Perfect from first visit to end of our wedding day.
Driving up to Raven Hall just blew us away. The view and setting is unreal. The venue is gorgeous and you truly have to see it to appreciate it. From the minute we drove down the road to see the gorgeous venue we knew it was the right place for us. The staff especially Gemma and Amy have been unbelievable the whole time no matter how much I emailed and asked questions they always had time to help. All the staff where lovely on the day and made it a perfect wedding. I couldn't imagine a better place for our wedding. There is honestly just no words to describe the beauty of the venue and the genuine care of the staff. Thank you everyone at Raven Hall for making it a perfect day. -
