Dream Wedding Venue

Where to start? Fell in love with Springkell immediately on sight, the pictures will never do it justice, you have to experience the feel of Springkell. Owner James, a true gentleman, makes Springkell feel like your home. The staff - Fiona the wedding co-ordinator - amazing, every step of the way, a true gem! Gill - who literally creates your dream day, nothing is too much trouble and your wedding breakfast set-up will blow you away, so creative and stunningly beautiful! The chefs, wow! The food is absolutely amazing, from breakfast to wedding dining - just an experience not to be missed. The waiting staff go above and beyond, nothing is too much trouble. Our guests were all blown away with the service they received, one even stating a waitress ran out to her car to get her own phone charger for her to use as she had forgotten hers!!! I mean, that is above and beyond. I happened to mention that Robert who works the bar told me he speaks German. My partner is German and his relatives were coming to the wedding, I was told there and then they would have him working the bar at our wedding. He was working and made our German family and friends feel right at home. The rooms are luxurious, spacious and scrupulously clean! Oh, again feedback from all our guests - the mattresses are divine, so comfortable and huge beds! The character of this stately home have been meticulously cared for and preserved, it is quite breath taking on entering. So, needless to say, I would recommend Springkell for any occasion, or even a romantic night away. You will be spoiled from start to finish. I think my dad summed up Springkell and its team perfectly when he said the morning after the wedding "many venues promise a dream, Springkell delivers the dream.
