Made our day perfect

From start to finish our experience with Shendish Manor and the team has been exceptional. Grace and the rest of the events team helped us every step of the way and made sure our big day went perfectly. Grace was so lovely, efficient and proactive. Sorting out bits we had not even thought of so the process and day went so smoothly. I highly recommend this venue. We had a 300 strong wedding and everything from cost to accommodation, food, and cleaning to overseeing and execution of the day was spot on.

Shambolic new staff team

The team appears to have had significant turnover.
This is unfortunate as it meant on the day many important details were missed, forgotten or simply not bothered with.

For example serving the bridesmaid and bride allergens, cutting up the entire cake, not setting a room up for the bride and groom, not giving the bride or groom drinks or canapes, the mother of the bride twisting her ankle on uneven flooring...

The list just goes on and on, best to just avoid this place for your wedding.

Best Day ever

I honestly have no words we have been floating literally since Saturday. We wanted to say thank you for everything you did for us we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day. We have had so many compliments on everything and in all honesty I want to do it all over again. Thank you all for everything and for our magical day.

COVID Fairytale Indian Wedding

Due to the lockdown we had to reschedule both our Civil and Hindu Wedding ceremonies and Bryher and the team at Shendish Manor made this process stress free and were very flexible. We managed to have our Civil Ceremony in August which was truly magical and will be having the Hindu wedding in a few weeks time and I have no worries as I know Bryher and the team will make sure that I have the best day possible.

Maria & Tim's Tiny Covid Wedding

We had a wonderful day, despite the Covid restrictions and limitations. The staff worked above and beyond our expectations, nothing was too much to ask for.
Together we spent a lot of time planning, revising plans and re-planning, right up to the last minute. We constantly reviewed the government regulations to ensure everything was compliant and that both staff and our guests were safe. It was difficult all round navigating through the ever-changing circumstances, but together we worked to achieve a fantastic Wedding Day to remember. My thanks to all the Shendish staff.

Thank you for providing a wonderful experience

We just wanted to say what a great day we had. All the facilities were beautiful including the grounds, the Aspley suite and the Orangery, and your Operations team worked most professionally and efficiently to ensure that all the areas needed for the ceremony and the reception were ready on time and looked magnificent.

We would also like to thank you for helping us to plan the layout of the Aspley suite and for being accommodating in terms of where to leave things before the ceremony and after the reception. We felt the day went very smoothly and both we and our guests enjoyed the whole occasion immensely.

Thank you again for providing such a wonderful experience.

Everything went perfectly!

Just wanted to say thank you again for all your help in organising our wedding. Everything went perfectly and we were so happy with how the whole day went. Everyone at the venue was brilliant and so helpful on the day.

Wedding

A beautiful setting, rooms excellent & staff nice, but the hotel is very unorganised, the food was nothing like the tasting, more like a cavery on the day, I could not even eat my potatoes and I was the bride, the front of house manager left a week before & no one bothered to tell me till i rang 2 days before my wedding, I asked for no shots/doubles to be served on the free bar, which they were, so therefore we ran out, it was very very unorganised, be very wary brides & grooms

Excellent Service

The Service at Shendish Manor is great. Each staff member worked really hard to get our daughters wedding perfect. This was a perfect day and evening, and all enjoyed themselves. We would recommend this hotel to anyone

Wonderful Accommodation

We went to our friends wedding at the weekend and the hotel was outstanding, bedrooms all clean, fresh and new. I am now holding a date for my wedding in 2009. I can't wait!
