Absolutely amazing - The Orangery Suite is just perfect, we were lucky enough to have our dream wedding here and we couldn't have wished for a better venue. The gardens are absolutely beautiful and our guests haven't stopped talking about how beautiful the venue was and the games that were available! Graham was fantastic as well, he was so unbelievably helpful throughout the whole planning process and ensured that our day ran smoothly - everything was perfect and we are so grateful we were able to get married at this incredible venue.

5 stars!! The Orangery Suite is an absolutely incredible venue! We decided to get married there and we were not disappointed! Graham and team were amazing from start to finish. Graham gave continuous advice and support and was always there when needed. Graham and team allowed us to decorate the venue exactly how we wanted it and make it our own which we felt was such a lovely thing for us to be able to do. The grounds themselves are absolutely stunning, I recommend you go and see for yourselves! The games scattered around the venue were fantastic and a lot of our guests made use of these – laughing whilst doing so. No one was bored as there is so much fun to be had, the grounds are massive too so lots of space. Graham kindly played the music for us for the Ceremony so we didn’t have to ask one of our guests to do so and he provided a bar for our guests to purchase their drinks from. The whole day included full use of the venue and it’s grounds, a staffed/licensed bar and our own caterers (all optional). It was so affordable, in fact, we couldn’t believe how reasonable it was! I searched for all sorts of venues when we got engaged and The Orangery Suite is by far the best venue, the best location, the best price and the best fun! Our wedding was relaxed which is what we wanted, the birds sang from start to finish which made it all the more special for us. When we booked The Orangery Suite we were planning to get married inside The Orangery Suite venue which is stunning, however shortly before our big day, Graham advised us that they are now licensed for outdoor ceremonies which we grabbed with both hands! The Marquee in the centre of the grounds is beautiful and perfect for events, it is spacious and bright, it made for an amazing day and our photos are amazing as a result. The whole day was absolutely perfect for us – even the rain held off at the right moments! We highly recommend The Orangery Suite for any event, you can’t go wrong! Thank you to Graham and team at The Orangery Suite for everything, you guys are incredible and we couldn’t be happier! More...

Still on a high from our big day on Saturday; we could not have had a better day. Graham and all the staff were so attentive and always on hand throughout the day and beforehand. Given the freedom of a blank canvas, we had so much fun getting creative to bring some personal decor and touches to this place, and were so pleased with how our homespun wedding turned out! Our guests couldn’t have payed any more compliments to this beautiful venue, it really was perfect - the weather helped too, as the games went down a treat! Thanks again Graham, we’d do it all again in a heartbeat! Love Jodie and Joe x More...

I photographed a wedding here on Monday and it was so lovely. We had all different types of weather, sun, rain, dark grey clouds, and it looked beautiful at every stage. It’s so picturesque and there are games on the ground to entertain everyone, from croquet, to chess, there are various seating areas for photographs, it’s a beautiful little place. The reception was in a lovely marquee, and they did a barbecue for the wedding party. There’s a little bar inside too. I highly recommend it. More...

No shortage of activities around the beautifully landscaped walled garden, like croquet, giant chess, table tennis, boules.
Such a tranquil setting with many quiet spots to relax.

it couldn't have been a more perfect day! our guests commented on the beautiful gardens and the children loved the games. I cant wait to see our professional photos as there were so many gorgeous areas around the garden .
for us, we didnt want a registry office as our local wasnt as special as we imagined, and the over priced hotels limited us greatly. The orangery suite was a perfect middle ground and amazingly priced.
Graham was incredibly helpful and nothing was too much to ask.
Thank you :-)

I had my wedding at The Orangery Suite at the end of July, and I can't recommend the venue and it's management enough. Our wedding didn't quite go to plan, and we had to swap the timetable around on the day. Graham couldn't have been more helpful and as a result we had a brilliant day.
The gardens are stunning and the outdoor games provided loads of entertainment for our guests. We worried that as we had 6 hours there before moving on to our evening venue that it might drag, but in reality it flew past, and we were still dragging people off the table football when it was time to leave.
I live in the north east, and so we had to plan the wedding from afar, with lots of emails and phone calls. I have to say how good Graham was at staying in touch -he responded very promptly every time and no request was too much bother. It is a stunning venue with excellent personal service.

Graham was so helpful leading up to and on the day of the wedding and it ment alot that he replyed to any of my questions within a short period of time through email or phone which was very much appreciated. I loved the fact i could decorate myself. Its a day i will never forget, The orangery suite is a hidden gem. And i really couldn't reccomend it enough! More...

We got married here just over 2 weeks ago. This was the first and only venue we viewed for our wedding....as soon as we set foot in the gardens we knew it was the perfect venue for the relaxed summer wedding that we wanted! We didn't want a hotel or country house as we didn't like how the day was too 'structured' and we wanted something a bit different. We wanted to be able to choose how our day went and change the order of things as we pleased. The Orangery Suite lets you decorate things exactly as you want them and you have the whole venue to put your own stamp on. The huge range of garden games were an added bonus as free entertainment for our wedding guests and they were really popular on the day. Unfortunately, despite it being July, it was drizzly on and off throughout the day but it definitely didn't ruin anything and Graham was really helpful with changing things around for us, plus it still stayed dry at the times we needed it to and we got all our outside pics :)
I wish we could have our wedding all over again just to go back to the Orangery Suite, it really is stunning with so many great backdrops for photos. Thanks so much Graham! This is the perfect hidden gem for weddings and we will try to find any excuse to have another party here at some point :)

We chose The Orangery Suite in late May for the ceremony and daytime reception for our wedding because we wanted a fun wedding where our guests could relax and keep themselves entertained too. Needless to say, The Orangery Suite delivered! The grounds are beautiful and offered ample room for 60-70 guests to explore and discover various games dotted around. The ceremony room and the gazebo were great too, but the outdoor areas were the real stars of the show. Even for such a long reception (we had the venue booked for 7 hours), I was never worried that the guests would get bored and heard only great feedback from them. More...

This is an excellent venue, with a mass of opportunities for photos, in our case a wedding. The approach to the location is somewhat lack lustre, yet ironically only adds to the wonder of the place once you enter the grounds. Without question this is a superb location for a function where you intend to host up to 100 people. Perfect. More...
