The Absolute Perfect Day
We had the perfect day. The whole team on the day are an absolute credit to the Milsom’s brand. We would highly recommend the venue for those looking for a smaller wedding. Our advise would be to remain in contact with the team at all times to assure you have the best day. We also found that meeting the team who will look after you on the day is a brilliant idea as you can build a rapport meaning that the will know who to speak with on the day.
The venue and setting are however just stunning and this really helps set the scene for a perfect day.We had the perfect day. The whole team on the day are an absolute credit to the Milsom’s brand.

Wedding (Ceremony and Reception)
In September, we had our wedding ceremony and meal for 11 people at Le Talbooth Restaurant and an evening reception for around 30 people afterwards at the Talbooth House and Spa hotel. Alex Carr handled all the planning arrangements and Melissa, Cassey and the staff at the hotel looked after us on the day. The ceremony took place downstairs at Le Talbooth, we had drinks and photos outside beside the river, followed by a meal upstairs in the Weavers Room. We then moved up to the hotel for the evening reception. We had a wonderful day and everything ran really smoothly, thanks in no small measure to the efforts of the staff on the day who were absolutely fantastic. Highly recommended.In September, we had our wedding ceremony and meal for 11 people at Le Talbooth Restaurant and an evening reception for around 30 people afterwards at the Talbooth House and Spa hotel.

08.07.2024 Wedding Mr & Mrs Lenoir
We had the most wonderful couple of days with the team at the Talbooth House & Spa. I ( the bride) stayed the night before with my maid of honour to settle in, the staff were really thoughtful not to disturb us but made sure that everything was ready for the day of the wedding. We had a wonderful morning getting ready in the biggest room in the house luxuriating with a breakfast outside in the sun and I took a little peak at the lawn which was going to house our ceremony that day. The team at the Talbooth took time to take care of the Groom and Groomsmen making sure they had a place to get ready and made sure all our request no matter how small were done to an excellent standard. We had the ceremony set out on the lawn, our flowers laid by our wonderful florist Emma Thomson (The Suffolk florist) setting the scene and our family and friends slowly making their way to their seats. The food for the day was absolutely wonderful. We had some canapes by the pool with a few glasses of pimms, a buffet lunch with every delicious morsel you could think of (and some special requests from us). They set out croquet on the lawn for some afternoon fun and games and we had gelato with toppings (putting a big smile on everyone's faces). For the speeches, the team at the talbooth seemlessly brought out some bubbly and made sure everyone was in the right place at the right time. Everything was thought of and we couldn't have been happier. When all the day guests had gone, the close family went for a swim at the pool house and jacuzzi (our neice and nephews were delighted) and we even got the fire lit for a cosy afternoon tipple. For the evening we just had an intimate 3 course meal set up in the garden room with close family, maid of honour and best man. We had absolutely gorgeous food and wine and the kids meals were brought out early to keep them occupied. After all that deliciousness, we had our first dance in the sitting room with live music a few songs and a few cups of coffee and chocolate truffles before bed - Perfect! A big treat for us was having the whole place to ourselves for the kids to roam around. Also, the fact that they were really accommodating of my 92 year old grandma who needed a lot of support and regular naps and that they were really on top of keeping glasses full, bellies fed and people happy. The following morning we all had breakfast at Milsoms down the road and then a coffee back at the house before packing up and heading home. The staff kindly packaged up the left over food from the buffet (there was so much left!) for the family who had lots of guests to feed while Bride and Groom headed off for their honeymoon in Sicily. All in all such a wonderful time and we can't thank the staff enough for their time and thoughtfulness. We will definitely be recommending them to our friends and will be back to stay in the near future for a wonderful relaxing spa weekend!We had the most wonderful couple of days with the team at the Talbooth House & Spa.

Silkstone Wedding- 10/10
From the first day we went to see the venue, we did not need to look any further we were happy to book there and then! The house was amazing and was set in such a beautiful location. The facilities were everything you could ask for and more, our guests couldn't wait to show each other their rooms which were very spacious, clean with an impressive decor. The food was delicious with really good sized portions. As soon as we arrived for the wedding, the staff were very professional and organised in looking after us and our guests. They went above and beyond our expectations which helped us to relax and enjoy our perfect day.
We would highly recommend any couple to choose this as their wedding venue! It was the most amazing day, thank you for making it so special.

Special Day with an Amazing Team
We had the most amazing wedding day thanks to the team at the Talbooth House. No request was ever any trouble and many of our guests remarked on how lovely and accommodating the staff were, they really looked after our guests and made them feel special.
During our planning meeting we were able to discuss the detail of the day and their knowledge about what worked well and tips were so helpful. Any special requests we had to adjust timings were accommodated to make it work for us and this helped make the day really personal to us.
We were able to hire the entire place for our wedding which made it a really intimate and special day, we can't recommend it more highly.
A special thanks to Keighley, Alex and all of the team on the day who made it so amazing and a day we'll never forget.We had the most amazing wedding day thanks to the team at the Talbooth House.

Our wedding day ❤️
We got married at Talbooth house and spa on the 29th August. From the start Alex was so friendly and so helpful sending all the information we needed through with all the information on weddings at milsoms, she also booked us a one to one appointment quickly for us to go in and have a look around the venues and the different options they provided. After looking at other various wedding venues in the area we decided on Talbooth house. We wanted a small and intimate wedding and Talbooth house and spa is perfect for this. We had many meetings and email correspondence with Alex and she was so helpful throughout, nothing was too much of a problem and she listened to all of our ideas of what we wanted for our special day and turned it into exactly what we wanted. I had many questions and worry’s leading up to the day but Alex was always there either at the end of the phone or email or in person to answer them and put my mind at ease. I stayed the night before the wedding with some of my bridesmaids, we was treated amazingly from when we first turned up from someone helping us to unload all the wedding bits out of the car to them bringing some Prosecco to my room. On the morning the staff were so helpful and nothing was too much of a problem helping my florist and family to set up all the different bits to help make our wedding as amazing as it was. Our room service breakfast was so yummy. The day went more perfect than we ever could have imagined and will definitely be a day to remember. The staff was exceptional and nothing was too much bother, me and my husband both loved the fact they knew both of our names and kept coming to check personally if we were both ok or needed anything.
And taking amazing care of all our guests topping up drinks and checking if anything was needed. We opted for an outside bbq, the food was amazing and we were also happy with the fact there was more than enough for everyone to even go and have seconds or thirds.Everyone was commenting on how lovely the food was, even now weeks later. Alex also arranged at our requests some sandwiches at the end of the night for our guests that was staying the night in the hotel with us this was a big hit especially the prawn sandwiches!! We just wanted our day to feel like we had all our closest friends and family round for a gathering at home and this is exactly how it felt especially being able to have our closest friends and family spend the night with us in the hotel and then being able to go to breakfast together the next morning at milsoms, again the breakfast was lovely.
Our guests loved the venue commenting on how lovely the house was, we also had use of the pool area which all of our guests loved and it was lovely to break the day up into different sections, we had a bar and some dessert and wedding cake down there which was enjoyed by all. The children even enjoyed going swimming.
Our day was amazing and we enjoyed every second of it!! I would highly recommend Talbooth house and spa and Alex and her team for planning your dream wedding.

Dream wedding day!
We had quite a traumatic experience planning our wedding as our original venue cancelled on us but the team at the talbooth saved our wedding day! They were absolutely incredible start to finish and really couldn’t have done more to make our day special, nothing was too much to ask! The whole planning experience was easy and we felt so at peace knowing our day was in the best hands, as a bride I felt so relaxed and hardly had to lift a finger! I couldn’t recommend more!We had quite a traumatic experience planning our wedding as our original venue cancelled on us but the team at the talbooth saved our wedding day!

September Wedding!
We got married September 2024 on our 14 year anniversary. From the moment we booked the venue we had amazing support from the lovely staff. Every question (big or small) was no bother to the staff and we felt reassured with every reply we had. On the day, the team went out their way to make it as stress free as possible. The day was absolutely perfect, the food was insane and the vibe was relaxed just how we wanted! Thank you to the whole team at Talbooth for the most memorable day.We got married September 2024 on our 14 year anniversary.
