We chose The Cock Hotel as our wedding venue, and I couldn’t be more grateful to the entire team for making our special day truly perfect. It was an intimate event for our closest friends and family, with a total of 50 guests, including us.

From the lovely ladies serving breakfast, who were so kind and supportive when I was feeling nervous and offered words of encouragement, to the lad behind the bar, the cleaners, the wonderful gentleman setting the tables the night before, the lady at reception, and the coordinators, Sara and Tim – what an incredible team! (We’re sorry we don’t remember everyone’s names, but we hope you know who you are, as we will never forget each of you.) We cannot forget the kitchen staff, as the food was beautiful and delicious. The vegan and vegetarian guests were so grateful, and those with food allergies had their needs managed with extra care. Thank you so much!

Sara was an angel from the very beginning. Over the course of a year, she patiently answered my countless questions and embraced all of our ambitious ideas. We even had the opportunity to decorate the room the night before after a last-minute cancellation of the event scheduled that evening, which was extremely helpful.

Though Sara couldn’t be there on the day, Tim stepped in and was outstanding as the Master of Ceremonies. He handled last-minute issues with remarkable calmness, always with a smile on his face. There was nothing he couldn’t sort out for us, even during a busy bank holiday weekend with the hotel fully booked.

Every member of staff we encountered, both during the day and evening, was an absolute delight, making us and our families feel incredibly welcome.

Based on the incredible experience we had with all staff, we wouldn’t give them anything less than 5 stars, as they truly deserve it.

If you’re considering The Cock Hotel for your event, I wholeheartedly recommend it. I’d choose it again 100 times over. We felt special, unique, and will carry the wonderful memories of the day with us for a lifetime.

To Sara and Tim, our heartfelt thanks for your professionalism and attention to detail. We will be forever grateful.

Best wishes,
Jackie & Joe

My groom and I had the pleasure of having our wedding at The Cock Hotel on Saturday 29th June 2024, and we can't recommend it enough. All the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Sara, Tim, Zoe and Jo, who went above and beyond to make the day so very special for everyone. The food was delicious and plentiful and the venue was spacious and full of charm and character. We were also very lucky with the weather, which was perfect and the hotel had a lovely courtyard for the guests of all ages to enjoy. It was very convenient to have everything under one roof, from the ceremony to the reception to the accommodation. The Cock Hotel is a great place for a wedding or any other celebration and in our opinion, was good value for money. Thank you from Nicola & Gary White

WEE HAD OUR WEDDING DELAYED FROM 2020, unlike some parties, but the hotel kept with us, with no changes to prices or experience .

We had the best experience at a wedding with many guests saying it was the the best party/wedding that they had ever been too. We loved the day and it will be with us forever, everything went to plan thanks to Sarah and Darren and the team at the Cock hotel

We used the Cock Hotel for our wedding venue from vows to wedding reception and we loved every second of it. The day is held in their dedicated reception room with the end wall being exposed stone and roof beams, there is also a dedicated bar so there is no need for the guests to leave the reception room. Darren and Sara helped up plan the big day from beginning to end and have a few different menu and drinks packages, they also had a trusted list events teams who were also very professional and accommodating with budgets to suit all. We would highly recommend that you use Darren as the Master of the Ceremony as he knows how ton run a tight schedule as timing is very important when you have a fairly large guest list. We would also recommend having pictures taken in front of the old barn too as this looks lovely in photos. All the waiting staff and the rest of the team in the background were also fantastic. All in all, we had a fantastic day and our guests also fed back that they had a great day too. We had a no stress and the only hitch was when we said “I do” We would highly recommend to anyone who in planning a wedding, or indeed an anniversary.

Lovely spacious rooms, very attentive professional staff who made our day go perfectly.
Food was amazing, which was commented by all that attended the wedding.
We would recommend the Cock Hotel for a wonderful Wedding venue.

Planning a wedding during Lockdown wasn't easy and we changed our guest numbers a couple of times but the team at The Cock Hot were very flexible and made our day very special. Having access to the courtyard was lovely for the guests and photographer to mingle and relax after the emotion of the ceremony. The food was great too!

The cock Hotel has very polite and helpful all the staff is amazing and I would recommend using them for venues and reception.

They are very organised with everything

From attending the wedding fair to our amazing day we can't say how great everything was.
Very easy to book and Sara supported us with meetings and calls along the way helping with planning and special menus without fault.
The venue looked amazing and all the staff did a great job running around behind the scenes to ensure everything went without a hitch.
The food was good especially the roasted pototoes with pulled pork rolls at night everyone said they were the best!
The whole day was amazing and we highly recommend The Cock Hotel thank you so much.

Wow where do I begin!
I had my wedding here on 30/09/2022
Despite covid postponing the wedding Sara went above and beyond to ensure we still had our perfect day and we did eventually

All the staff was amazing but most of all Darren! No ask was too much for him on the day he made myself and my guests feel very comfortable and he handled the whole wedding from start to finish
Without Darren our day wouldn’t of been as relaxed as it was so Thankyou so much!
The food was delicious!
The turn around for the marquee room to change from ceremony to reception was done efficiently and looked fabulous

Thankyou to you all and will look forward to returning next year for our anniversary

We had a great day, the team were fantastic, helpful, friendly & Angie who was organizing on the day was truly amazing, she ensured every thing ran smoothly and was genuinely a lovely person.

Saw this location few years before even being engaged loved it. Its quaint and pretty. Love the old style of Marquee room and the courtyard.

When we got engaged I knew I needed to enquire. On first chat with Sara the wedding coordinator she seemed rather stressed and it felt like a demand for payment on room to secure, as they were busy. Fair enough stressy time during covid but inflexibility to view the room on her side was not my problem. This also seemed to set in a trend unfortunately. We were also told of some personal procedures the coordinator had been through, which seemed unprofessional but we let it slide.

Eventually we managed to view the room, choose our buffet foods and pay for our hotel room. A few details regarding parking etc were discussed. We were told we would meet 2 weeks prior the event to discuss finer details. We were fortunate enough to be gifted music. We also wanted further entertainment including a photographer. Which we had arranged. Understanding the need own insurances was fine. The way we were hounded for liability insurance was least professional, and actually set panic in. We even discovered that someone we had hired for the event had done numerous weddings there and not been asked for a certificate before. Now we found this detail off. Why would someone find the need to treat us differently to others?

We 100% paid and had fulfilled our end of the bargain. Stuck to their pay up policy. A friend who is a carpenter had made us a beautiful arch to use and wanted to deliver it to the hotel the day before. As you may have guessed he was rudely dissmissed with a liability insurance certificate demand. This totally deflated us. The promised meeting 2 weeks prior the event did not take place even after calling the hotel myself to arrange this. We wouldve been able to discuss the arch detail then. Hotel seemed to find flexibility in allowing us to use said arch. I can only imagine because of their error and lack of service they offered us.

We made a last minute decision to have welcome drinks for our guests on arrival and had requested options emailed. We were told this needed this to be paid 2 weeks prior the event, please bare in mind this is now a week prior the event. The menu attachment not emailed, however through a load of patience we arranged this.

We met with Darren, the day before our event he who oversees everything he actually couldn't do enough for us. We would like to thank Darren and advise that he be people facing and perhaps deal with enquiring brides and grooms to be. He really did go above and beyond. I believe her name is Angie the duty manager that evening too was tops.

So to sum up the experience we loved the location. We felt our money and liabilty certificates were most important to the wedding coordinator above giving us an experience to remember and treasure. Darren and Angie saved the day!
All in all we had a good time. If you can, deal with Darren and Angie.

Great team, great venue, great food, great package...a massive thank you to the team from Sara to Angie. Professional, understanding due to the move of date. We had an amazing wedding. Highly recommended and we will definitely book for our first year Anniversary.

We had a Fantastic wedding here the Hotel and Staff went the Extra mile to make sure our Special day was one to remember forever.
Would recommend the Cock Hotel to anyone

We had our wedding here on the 18th of August and it was just magical. Such a beautiful venue and a great team. It was perfect!!

We had our wedding here on 13th September and it was magical .

From our first meeting with Sara we knew we had picked the right place, she was professional, friendly and caring nothing was too much trouble.

On the day everything ran like clock work, everything Sara and ourselves had worked so hard for fell into place.

Darren was excellent at his job as we're all members off staff from breakfast, waiting , bar , and housekeeping everyone made our day the best off our lives .

Thank you so much for everything XXX
