Unforgettable Experience!

Our wedding at The Vineyard Hotel was an unforgettable experience. From start to finish, the team demonstrated professionalism and an impressive attention to detail that made our special day truly remarkable.

The team’s quick response time, and helpfulness in planning were outstanding. Charlotte was amazing! On the day the whole team were attentive to ours and our guests’ needs from the moment we arrived, patient with our questions, and ensured every detail was accounted for. The smooth running of the day was a testament to their meticulous organization. Every aspect flowed perfectly, allowing us to enjoy the event without stress. The staff worked discreetly in the background, ensuring all elements came together effortlessly.

The food was a highlight—simply excellent! Our guests are still raving about the quality and presentation of the dishes! Charlotte ensured all dietary requirements were met with ease and the selection of wines was impressive!

Our room was kindly upgraded by Charlotte and was very clean and comfy, a treat at the end of a busy day!

The Vineyard Hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. From the exquisite food and impeccable service to the flawless execution of the day, we couldn’t have asked for more. If you’re considering hosting your wedding here, rest assured you’ll be in excellent hands. We will certainly be back to celebrate our anniversary next year if not before!

A day to remember

The Vineyard is simply perfect. We knew we wanted to have our Wedding here because of the luxurious, relaxing environment and the delicious food and impeccable service, but most of all, the attention to detail and little personal touches that make them unique.

Nicole and her team went out of their way to make sure we had the most amazing day- no ask was too big, and no task impossible. They were patient, attentive, well informed and extremely dedicated. Their experience hosting weddings and other events really came through and they were able to provide us with useful advise throughout and their list of recommended suppliers was a great starting point too! For anyone stressed about planning,...

For anyone stressed about planning, having a reliable, experienced and well informed team like the team at the Vineyard really makes life much easier!

On the day itself, we had many guests, both local and from overseas, and the team ensured everyone’s stay was enjoyable and seamless. Many are planning their return already! Everything was so well organised and ran effortlessly.

We cannot recommend the Vineyard enough! It truly is an amazing all round venue with beautiful surroundings, delicious food and wine and the most dedicated team who just want to make the day perfect. We cannot thank you enough.

Dear Mark and Ish
It was an absolute pleasure to help with all your planning and preparations leading up to your special day and we wish you both a lifetime of happiness
Hopefully it wont be long before we see you and the family back through the doors

Setting a new standard for weddings

The only way to describe our wedding at the Vineyard is to mention a few comments by our guests. It exceeded our own expectations by any measure.

Here are a few quotes we received:

Fine dining for more than 100 guests.
Custom built - perfectly matched food and wine; even individual menus.
The finest quality locally sourced ingredients, perfectly presented and delivered.
Who would have thought of English Sparkling wine at a top top event.
The Vineyard did you proud.
You must have put a tremendous amount of planning into the event.

These are just a few of many comments. In truth, it was all about an outstanding team at the Vineyard - the event...

These are just a few of many comments. In truth, it was all about an outstanding team at the Vineyard - the event coordination, chef, kitchen team, sommelier, bar and table service. It was like clockwork.

Added to that, the venue itself would be hard to beat. External pavilion, amazing bar, separate dining room and dance area. And not forgetting the bedrooms.

The Vineyard's reply:

Dear Ed and Debbie,

Your wedding day was an absolute pleasure to host and what we like to call the full Vineyard experience. The feedback from both you and your guests is a delight to hear and we are so glad that your day was amazing for all.

We do hope to see you both through the doors for years to come and the team look forward to having more decisions about wine in the future!

Perfect and amazing day

Charlotte and the team were just amazing throughout our whole planning and made the day exceptional wonderful. Nothing was to much for the staff. Our guests made so many lovely comments about the venue and staff. We used their florist and she was great to work with and willing to go with my vision for flowers.

We actually miss our visits to the vineyard and seeing the team there.

Definitely recommend as a venue for a great wedding!

We chose the Vineyard because we are both great wine lovers and we felt it would be appropriate :) - and it definitely was! The wine cellar makes for a lovely backdrop and of course, there are loads of lovely wines to choose from.

The venue itself is gorgeous and offers everything a classy wedding location could need - gorgeous spa, pretty backdrops, great function rooms, yummy food, etc...

The real reason to recommend it though is the staff. The wedding planner Charlotte is just wonderful to work with and thinks of everything you hadn't considered! And the team on the day - from the hostess to the waiters and everyone in between - kept us...

We had a great day and would do it all again tomorrow!

Perfect Wedding & Venue

I cannot recommend The Vineyard or thank the staff enough for such an amazing day! It was nothing short of perfect, they put so much effort into making it look effortless. The food, and every small detail were more than I could have hoped for & it was a fantastic experience from beginning to end! A lot of our guests said it was the best wedding they’d ever been too - thank you!

An escape from reality

Feeling like you are dreaming from the moment that drive through an entrance, is not something that you experience often.

My wife and I were blessed to be able to experience our wedding weekend at The Vineyard.

From the moment that you pass the entrance, you are entering into a world of bliss, relaxation, and transported to an era in time of elegance, class and tranquility.

I have to start with the people.. The people have made the place what it is. There is not a member of staff of which we encountered who did not feel like they were part of a movie. Their immaculate presentation, product knowledge, attention to detail and willingness...

My wife and I were blessed to be able to experience our wedding weekend at The Vineyard.

From the moment that you pass the entrance, you are entering into a world of bliss, relaxation, and transported to an era in time of elegance, class and tranquility.

I have to start with the people.. The people have made the place what it is. There is not a member of staff of which we encountered who did not feel like they were part of a movie. Their immaculate presentation, product knowledge, attention to detail and willingness to explore any and every avenue to resolve your query.. Honestly the most personable group of people I have encountered in one place. They take their time to listen, and understand, and offer support in any occasion.

The ambience is calm and relaxing, high class and elegant - surrounded by exquisite decor and art work, taking you back in time. The warm welcome at reception, the open fireplaces, the music, the list is infinite.

The food is the best that we have ever experienced, and with an evident passion for presentation, complimenting factors, and a love for their craft, their head chef, Tom, is nothing short of a perfectionist. Tom and his team delivered an exeptional standard of food for our event, which was an unforgettable culinary experience.

The Spa, suites and entertainment rooms all follow suit to the rest of the venue, offering immaculate touches of class and relaxation, art work and amenities.

Nicole was our main contact for our event/wedding at the venue, and I cannot commend their skills, professionalism and elegance enough. Nicole is a true asset to the Vineyard, and her experience shines bright.

We are already looking to plan our next stay at the Vineyard, as we are yet to find another location which comes close to the service of which we recieved.

The Vineyard will forever hold a place in our hearts, along side the staff who made our visit so exceptional.

A true escape from reality.

With love,

Scott and Louise.

Dear Scott and Louise. It was an absolute pleasure from beginning to end to help with all your wedding plans and we are over the moon you had such a wonderful day. We are delighted to welcome you into our Vineyard Family and are looking forward to seeing you back through the doors for years to come!
