Amazing Experience end to end
We had a fantastic experience with The Blakeland's Estate from start to finish... it was only the second venue that we viewed but we knew it was the one straight away! It had everything we were looking for, including a great indoor and outdoor space, onsite accommodation and lovely staff. We enjoyed the fact that Blakeland's were so flexible in all aspects of our day, when it came to choices around numbers of guests (including a few last min additions), choices of food and drinks, stationary, the list goes on. Even on the day itself where we were a bit worried about the weather, Chloe and the team were so relaxed about the fact that we could change to an indoor ceremony at the last minute if needed (which we didn't, but it was settling to know!). We are so pleased that we chose The Blakeland's Estate as our wedding venue and would absolutely recommend to couples looking in the future! Thanks for everything, Fran & Zak x

Phenomenal!
Words will never be enough to thank Blakelands for absolutely EVERYTHING on our wedding day 08.08.24! From our first viewing, we knew that Blakelands was the venue for us. All of the staff are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for anything more! They always replied so quickly, answered all our questions and made us feel so calm, assured and comfortable throughout the whole process! We were inundated with compliments about every aspect of our wedding day from the venue, the suppliers, the food and most importantly the staff - nothing was too much trouble and we truly felt like part of the Blakelands family. We are eternally grateful for everyone at Blakelands and thank them from the bottom of our hearts for everything. We hope that we can return for other special occasions in the future!

Incredible Venue 🤍
We had the most incredible wedding day at Blakelands in May 2024.
From the moment we came for our viewing, we knew this was the venue for us. All of the little personal details they consider, the caring nature of all of the staff, their willingness to be flexible and make the day totally tailored to you. They are the most organised and relaxed team too which really helps put your mind at ease and know the day is going to run smoothly!
The grounds are stunning and so many different backdrops for pictures.
The food was incredible! So many compliments on the portion sizes and the standard of food.
We could not have wished for a more perfect day and cannot thank Blakelands and the whole team enough for everything!
