Magical day

The accommodation of this venue is 10/10 from start to finish!
They were so attentive through the planning process. The day before, the day of and the day after!
They were a great help to me in setting up and even clearing up. Even when I got there late the day before, I was so stressed and they helped calm me down!
I appreciated this so much!
The food was incredible and I still have family members going on about the beef dish! I had a vegetarian option and it was divine!
They were brilliant with all my vendors and guest!
Overall it’s a brilliant little gem of a venue and all my guests were so happy and so was I!
I will always recommend this venue! Not only for its food and hospitality but also for the price! The packages are incredible and you get so much for your money!
I would get married here again if I could! I’ll definitely be back in the future even if it’s just for an event or a meal!
Thank you so much for making our day magical and truly being caring and passionate about what you do 🤍

First class wedding

We recently had our wedding at the Bolholt and it was amazing.
From the moment we booked (11 months ago) we were looked after so well and nothing was too much trouble. The "Twilight" package suited us perfectly but we were still able to tweek it to suit what we wanted and make it personal.
My chief bridesmaid and I stayed the night before. We used the spa facilities and had a meal in the restaurant which was superb.
On the wedding day itself, it would have been do easy for things to go wrong or forgotten because you are a bag of nerves but we were supported and guided in such a professional and caring way that the whole day ran like clockwork.
I can honestly say that things couldn't have gone any better and it was perfect.

Perfect venue for a perfect day

We had the most perfect Wedding at the Bolholt. Katie and her Events team were incredible from start to finish and couldn't do more for you. The communication was great - not too much and always on hand for any questions. The venue is beautiful especially the gardens which made for plenty photo opportunities and the Summerfield Suite is intimate but not too small - we had around 80-90 guests in total which wasn't crowded. The food was amazing great portions and a good choice to choose from. Thank you for making our day so amazing and stress free!

Boltholt best western bury

We just want to say how amazing Katie is! Our wedding is booked for 2025 which seems forever away, but we was so confused and nervous with all the different things you have to take into consideration. But Katie is honestly amazing and makes you feel so at ease. Super super responsive with emails she’s honestly the best person to have on your side!!!

Awesome fairytale wedding!

Me and my partner loved our special day. The venue is excellent, well organised and friendly. Super professional and spot on. I couldn't ask for more. Experience better than expectations and the wedding planner is absolutely awesome! I'm Italian and usually food is very different in my country but my Italian family was surprised with the main course and said was delicious! Thanks so much again to make our special day so unforgettable and special!
Con amore,
Grazia & Nicholas ❤️

Absolutely fantastic

The team at the Bolholt are fantastic! From day one Katie was always there to answer our questions, she is so helpful and friendly. On our wedding day Asher, Dan and the rest of the team were brilliant and made sure everything ran smoothly. From keeping us up to date on the morning to checking in with us throughout the day to turning the room around… Nothing was too much trouble and they really do go above and beyond. The room looked stunning for the ceremony / wedding breakfast / evening reception and the grounds are lovely to get some beautiful pictures. We had an absolutely amazing day! Thank you so much.

Beautiful venue for a Wedding

We cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. We chose the Winter package for our Wedding and got married on the 7th October. The venue's grounds are beautiful, and on a glorious sunny day made for a perfect setting for our photos.
On the day, the staff couldn't do enough to help us, and the day went like clockwork thanks to their professionalism. The venue has a lovely relaxed, friendly and family feel to it, and we would definitely recommend it to anyone who's looking to have their wedding ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening reception all at the same place.

Mr and Mrs Gibson

Want to do it again!! Absolutely incredible day from start to finish! We couldn’t thank you and your team enough for the big day and days either side of it, along with the run up to the wedding day!!
Everyone was so helpful, kind, considerate and contributed to the smooth and relaxing running of the day.
We truly loved the whole day and wouldn’t change a thing!!
From the evening before to us checking out on the Saturday we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! All of our guests commented on the helpfulness if the staff, the stunning grounds, the relaxing and friendly atmosphere and environment, gorgeous set up. The staff was so helpful and set up our entire room with the decor we provided - nothing was ever too much trouble or too much to ask!

We had a meal the evening before which was delicious
Wedding day - The room set up, ceremony, staff, food, dj, entertainment, was all perfect, any queries or issues were dealt with immediately (minimal) everyone was kind polite and friendly.

Katie and team was always supportive and responsive to any queries on the booking of our wedding and would give recommendations and advice on email or phone.

We wouldn’t change a single thing :)
