Jenny Sent on 05/08/2024Gorgeous English garden wedding
I cannot express how perfect Midelney Manor is as a wedding venue. Myself and my (now) husband were looking to create a barn, rustic, relaxed feeling for our wedding. Midelney Manor is a hidden little gem that we were fortunate enough to find and I am so thankful that we did! From the first meeting with Alice and seeing her gorgeous home, we immediately fell in love and knew this was perfect venue for us!
Alice was so warm and welcoming towards us from day one and she put us at ease knowing we could make the day our own and reflect us as a couple. She was extremely helpful and she was always contactable to ask any question or clarify anything.
Being able to have the venue all weekend made the build up to the day more special and stress-free. Again, Alice was super accommodating along with her lovely husband – it really was a family event! We were never under any pressure with time, they couldn’t have been more flexible for us which made the whole planning experience even more enjoyable and exciting leading up to the day!
Our guests could not compliment the setting enough! The Potting Shed had the rustic, quirky, cosy feeling for the ceremony that we wanted and the gardens provided stunning backdrops for all the photos, along with a beautiful marquee for the wedding breakfast and evening party.
Having accommodation on site was fantastic – the online pictures do not do Midelney West justice! It is super spacious to have your wedding party get ready for the day and even better to not have far to travel at the end of the night. Myself and my husband had booked to stay in the Iglu which was a lovely mini retreat for us to reflect on the day and spend quality time as newlyweds.
Thank you Alice and your whole family for making our wedding planning and day so special and memorable! We could not have hoped to have a more perfect wedding day and I am sure we will be returning for anniversaries in the future! -

Midelney was the perfect place for our wedding, we loved the flexibility of being able to make the space our own and the gardens make for a gorgeous back drop. This lesser known venue is a hidden gem, all our guests are still talking about how beautiful Midelney was.Midelney Manor's reply:
Thank you so much Izzy, it was such a beautiful day and we loved having you all here! It was such a fun wedding to be part of! -

We have just had our wedding at Midelney Manor and WOW what a perfect day we had. The venue is simply stunning , a hidden gem right in the heart of the Somerset Levels. The gardens and grounds are gorgeous and so well kept. The setting is just the most perfect place to host a wedding. We have had rave reviews from our guests commenting on how wonderful this venue was and we couldn't agree more.
Alice Acton, owner of the venue also acts as a coordinator. She went above and beyond from day one. Nothing was to much to ask, no question was ever too silly. She has a real love and passion for creating the perfect day for the couples who decide to choose Midelney as their venue. She spends time getting to know her couples, assisting wherever needed and checking in along the way to see how it's going and see where she can be of assistance. The entire weekend Alice was part of the set up, present on the say and even helped with the clean up and packing cars with all our items.
Due to the venue hosting a smaller amount of weddings a year as opposed to some of the larger known venues across Somerset, Alice puts her all into these weddings and really cares. Wanting to make the biggest day of your life one to ALWAYS remember.
On site there is also Midelney West which is a self catering property which sleeps 7 included in the venue hire pricing and it was gorgeous as so handy to have.
we couldn't have been asked for more.
Thank you Alice. We will always have Midelney Manor in our hearts! X
Midelney Manor's reply:
Hi Jess, oh wow! What a lovely review, thank you so much I really appreciate your kind words! I've loved getting to know you both and helping you create your magical day! It was gorgeous! Wishing you both lots of luck and happiness! Alice xx -

The perfect wedding day
Midelney Manor is quite literally the perfect wedding venue. Alice was pivotal in us being able to organise the wedding day of dreams. Her list of suppliers were of brilliant quality, whilst also offering a wide array of different options. The grounds of Midelney Manor also provide loads of flexibility for how you wish to have your day. We felt that Alice was truly invested in helping us deliver the day we wanted and she was ever present in the build up and on the day itself. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Midelney Manor to those looking for a beautiful, tranquil, marquee wedding in the countryside. Check out the Iglu too for your wedding night stay! Thank you so so much Alice for all of your hard work. We will keep in touch! A&W x -

I honestly cannot recommend Alice and Midelney Manor enough, we had our wedding this weekend, and it was simply stunning (even if I am biased!)
From the first time we reached out to Alice, to the day we left Midelney after the wedding, Alice was so attentive, and incredibly helpful!
Having never planned a wedding, or any large event before, myself and my now husband were completely at a loss of where to begin, how much things would cost, how to find suppliers, right down to picking a time that the ceremony should begin!
Alice gave us an extensive list of suppliers she recommends, along with always being contactable to answer any questions we had.
I'd feel myself getting stressed about something, so speak to Alice, and almost immediately I'd be calm and have a plan set out, honestly she has made our planning enjoyable rather than full of stress!
With regards to pricing, having looked at many other venues, the pricing is extremely fair! As not only do you get use of the venue, but Alice as an invaluable help! The venue has many different areas, so it really felt like a few venues rolled into one!
The venue itself is so incredibly beautiful, with lots of stunning areas, and private nooks. We stayed onsite at their Iglu accommodation, while 3 couples of our bridal party stayed in Midelney West. This was so perfect, as it meant we had people close, but my husband and I could have our own space to escape to!
We have had so many compliments from guests, raving about how beautiful the grounds are, but also how personalised the day felt. One of the many things we loved about Midelney Manor was that they dedicate a full weekend of your wedding, so there isn't such a mad rush to get things put up and taken down, making the weekend feel so special.
The Potting Shed is an amazing space, everytime we were in there, we noticed something we hadn't seen before, from the vegetable competition certificates from the 1920s, to the beautiful portraits on the walls.
It was a blessing to have an area that was cooler than outside for our elderly guests to sit, out of the sun!
Thank you again to Alice and her whole family, for everything you've done for us this weekend, and for the past year!
If you are thinking about visiting, all I can say is go, you will be swept up by Alice's passion and expertise!Midelney Manor's reply:
Dear Jasmin and Oz, what an absolutely lovely review, thank you so much it means so much to me that you had such a lovely weekend and enjoyed being here at Midelney! It was a total pleasure to have you all here and I've really enjoyed getting to know you both over the last year or so! x -

The perfect wedding venue
We came to view Midelney manor on a cold February day and knew before even seeing the grounds that this was the wedding venue for us because of how wonderful the owner Alice was. But when we got outside it was even better; the grounds were spectacular, even on a grey and wet day. The day of our wedding exceeded all our expectations and our guests told us it was like walking through a dream being on the grounds of Midelney manor. We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect wedding venue and would highly recommend it.
The Iglu is also a great place to spend your wedding night and a few days after (firehouse in Langport and the Drayton crown great for a Friday/Sunday meal).
Would also recommend the following suppliers:
- milkshed catering
- Eden blooms floral design
- guy collier photography -
