Our wedding at the Bay Tree was completely faultless and just as we hoped it to be, and more! The whole team could not do enough to make sure it went smoothly and nothing was too much trouble, even last minute changes! We feel the team went above and beyond to ensure our day was incredible and would highly recommend them to anyone for their wedding day! Such a beautiful setting!

We cannot thank The Bay Tree Hotel and their Wedding & Events coordinator Laura enough for making our wedding day so incredibly special. From the very first meeting, their enthusiasm and communication was great. Laura kept us updated throughout the entire planning process, answering all our questions and guiding us through every decision with patience and professionalism.

We felt so special on our day, the staff were so attentive to myself and my toddler at breakfast before the ceremony and all throughout our stay and our visits to them beforehand. Laura's attention to detail was amazing. She had so many thoughtful touches that made the day even more memorable - from a glass of Prosecco she had ready for us after the ceremony through to picking out such fun Halloween-inspired sweets for our sweet table that our guests loved.

The venue is beautiful, we were lucky with sunshine in late October but there would be plenty of photo opportunities even if we couldn't make it outside. The day ran seamlessly, guests were guided where they needed to be and the hotel atmosphere was exactly what we had wanted for our day.

What really stood out to us was how fantastic the hotel and whole team were to work with - everyone we spoke to was helpful and kind. Laura was always approachable, calm, and genuinely happy to do anything she could to make our day perfect. Whether it was last-minute requests or adjustments, Laura handled everything with a smile.

We could not recommend The Bay Tree Hotel and Laura enough!

Thank you to Laura and the team for sorting our day. The venue was decorated exactly how we wanted and we didn’t need to worry about a thing - everything went smoothly and our guests thought the venue was incredible. Thank you again!

The Bay Tree is a stunning place to hold a wedding and had long been a family favourite as a hotel and restaurant before we chose it for our wedding venue. As it is licensed, we were able to have both our ceremony and reception there, which made for a logistically easier day for everyone, as there was no need to travel between ceremony and reception venues. As the way they do it for weddings is as an exclusive hire, you can "sell" back the rooms to your guests and this then comes off your final bill and our guests told us they found it very convenient that we went for a venue which included accommodation. This also meant that we got to enjoy breakfast the next morning with those guests who had stayed over the night before, which was lovely.

We are very grateful to Laura and the rest of the staff at the Bay Tree who worked so hard to make our wedding such a wonderful, special and memorable day for everyone. We really appreciated their care and attention to detail, from Laura's help and guidance throughout the planning process, the room upgrade when we came to stay for our wedding menu tasting, to the little touches on the day itself, like greeting us with a glass of Pimms as we came out of our wedding ceremony and consulting with us to check how we wanted the cheese cake to be presented in the evening. Several of our family members commented afterwards on how smoothly the day ran overall and how impressed they were by the quality of the food and service that we received. They were also very accommodating about providing ramps for my disabled father, who uses a walker and struggles to climb stairs, which was greatly appreciated.

The only thing we would say is that there were a lot of things which were priced as extras which we would have expected to be included, and the communication around the pricing of some extras was not quite as transparent or consistent as we would have liked. The way that the rooms were deducted from the final bill was also quite confusing to get our heads around, and could have been explained more clearly. However, it all worked out fine in the end and ultimately we would not hesitate to recommend the Bay Tree as a wedding venue to others. We look forward to visiting in the future as husband and wife :)

The baytree team were amazing for our wedding. So helpful and managed everything perfectly. Perfect venue and such lovely staff, thank you!

A special shout out to both Laura & Becky who handle weddings and events, we couldn't have asked for more helpful and caring wedding planners, they really made planning our wedding seem like a walk in the park.

Our wedding at the Bay Tree Hotel was amazing. Having the whole hotel to ourselves made it really personal. The staff were amazing both in helping with the planning and over the weekend of the wedding. Natasha the wedding planner was always on hand and was professional and friendly. From the ladies who performed the ceremony, to the food, the disco and all the staff in the hotel everything about our day was perfect. All of our friends said it was the best wedding they had ever been to and we would do anything to experience it all over again!

We held our Wedding Ceremony and Reception at the Bay Tree Hotel on a Thursday in late August.
Wow, what a venue! Beautiful spaces, elegant and classy but great value compared to many we looked at. The hotel is beautiful inside and out. The food was excellent; we choose the Beef - yum! The staff were exceptional, they really seemed to enjoy making our day so special. The guest rooms were all lovely and the other rooms are gorgeous, especially once decorate for our event. We didn’t need to go mad on flowers because there is already so much beauty in the rooms. A big thank you goes to Laura who is the wedding coordinator; from the start she made us feel like we were in capable hands, as shown by the final event. Every one of our guests said what a magical day and night it was. We wouldn’t change anything and couldn’t recommend the venue more highly!

From the very start of planning our day through to the end it was a seamless, relaxed and joyous experience and every staff member we encountered along the way at the Bay Tree provided impeccable customer service and care. You brought our vision to life and made our day so incredibly special.

We would especially like to acknowledge and thank Laura who guided us through the initial planning of the day before her leave. It was lovely working with her and it was a seamless handover when she went on leave. A huge thanks to Becky taking over the wedding co-ordination. Becky was so professional, reliable and attentive to details. She was also very friendly, open to our ideas and also offered helpful suggestions. She is such a safe pair of hands when it comes to bringing the day together.

We would also like to thank all the wonderful staff at the hotel who made our wedding and stay there such a lovely experience. From the moment we arrived two days before the wedding to the point of check out every staff member was friendly, professional and always willing to help where they could whether it be moving luggage or just making us a drink to enjoy! No request was too much for anyone and the hotel really does feel like a home away from home.

Overall we and our families and friends had the most wonderful stay at the hotel and the wedding was unforgettable. We would recommend the Bay Tree and the team to anyone looking to either stay or host an event in the Cotswolds. It is a beautiful venue and the events team is amazing.

We recently celebrated our wedding at the Baytree Hotel and it was a magical experience. As my hometown, Burford has always been a very special place and I couldn't imagine getting married anywhere else. The Baytree made all of my dreams a reality. The team ensured from the very start of our planning that every detail was catered for. The venue is absolutely stunning and all the staff were incredibly attentive, ensuring our day ran smoothly from start to finish. A special thank you to Laura and Becky for making our wedding day truly the best day of our lives!

We fell in love with the bay tree when we had our first meeting and the staff seemed so professional and helpful. We thought the package was good value and loved the idea of having exclusive use. Leading up to the day, nothing was too much trouble and any questions asked were answered quickly. On the day itself everything went so well and the place looked amazing. We couldn't have asked for a better day. All the guests commented on how great everything looked, how much they enjoyed the food and how good a job all the staff had done. We couldn't agree more! Guests that stayed all commented how nice the rooms were and the breakfast the next day was also great.
Thank you to everyone as the bay tree for helping to make our day so special.
