I would highly recommend Audley’s Wood to anyone thinking of having a wedding there. Throughout the process they were friendly, professional and responsive. A few things we liked: Firstly they are upfront about costs, no hidden fees for anything. Secondly, the staff were great (before, during and after the planning process and on the day of event), guests commented on the day about how well they were treated at all times. Thirdly, it’s such a great venue. All the facilities you need in one place, with a gorgeous setting. Roxanne was our wedding planner and was super friendly and nothing phased her. Everything was easy. She gave recommendations for things we were sure of and reassured us throughout that we wouldn’t have to worry about a thing - which we didn’t! Martin on reception showed all of the bridal party to our rooms the night before and was so welcoming. David was our toastmaster and he ensured the day ran smoothly. He met us b

We recently had our wedding at Audleys Wood Hotel and couldn’t have been happier with our choice. The venue is absolutely stunning, with beautiful grounds and picturesque views that created the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and photos. The staff were exceptional from start to finish. Every member of the team was friendly, professional and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. Everything ran seamlessly, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment. One of the biggest highlights for us was the dry hire option. It gave us the freedom to serve our own Caribbean food, which made our wedding feel even more personal and meaningful. Being able to share our culture through the food created such a memorable experience for us and our guests, and it’s something we’re so grateful Audleys Wood could accommodate. The combination of a beautiful venue, outstanding service and the flexibility to make the day truly our own made our wedding everything we had dreamed of. We can’t recommend Audleys Wood Hotel highly enough to any couple l

Audley's wood was the perfect venue for us! Having all aspects of the wedding in one place and rooms available for our guests meant it was the complete package. The entire team were accommodating, friendly and had smiles on their faces the whole day. They created a welcoming and warm atmosphere that all our guests commented on. The food was delicious and many guests commented on the quality of the food being some of the best they had, had at any wedding. Roxanne, our coordinator, was simply amazing. She never stopped smiling and always checked in to ensure all of those small details were in place. She really helped up to pull everything together and made us feel like we could sit back and enjoy all our hard work on the day. Our toastmaster, Nick, was the cherry on top and helped us to ensure our day ran smoothly and that guests felt looked after. He was professional and warm which further added to the experience of the day. The bridal suite was exquisite and i felt like a princess getting to stay there the night before the wedding. All our bags were handled so we had nothing to worry about on the day and the honeymoon suite was the comfy space we needed after a long day. If you are looking for a picturesque, warm and intimate space for your wedding you should go and view Audley's Wood. The venue was the perfect balance for us in wanting space but not feeling like our smaller wedding was being

We recently had our wedding at Audley's Wood hotel and it was nothing short of a dream come true. From the first instance the staff were friendly and attentive, always doing their passionate best to fulfil and request. The venue itself is gorgeous. The perfect balance of old time aesthetics but with modern conveniences. Honestly, having a wedding at a place where people can take 2 minutes to pop back to their rooms was such a blessing. Oh and the food, my word the food. Nothing short of amazing. Even when produced on a mass scale for a wedding of 8

Well, what can we say…… We got married at Audley’s Wood hotel on the 8th August, and we genuinely could not have asked for better!!! The staff are AMAZING!!!!! Garry, Martin, Michael, Darren, Jack, to name a few…… We had an unusual but unapologetically “us” wedding, so we had a few special requests (and surprises), and the hotel and staff MORE than accommodated us. NOTHING was too much trouble!!!! We cannot emphasize this enough!!!! They looked after my husband and I, along with all the trials and tribulations that come with an elderly and quirky family, without a blink of an eye. The food was amazing on ALL OCCASIONS, from menu tasting to pre-wedding dinner, through to the wedding day itself. People have constantly commented to us about how lovely all the food was! There is nothing worse than attending a wedding and not being catered for and still feeling hungry!!!! Well, it was definitely not the case at Audley’s Wood!!!! The rooms were so comfortable and had everything we needed. We shall be visiting again!!! These words cannot express our gratit

Audleys Wood - My oh my. We had the most fantastic wedding at Audleys wood this March. Im the buildup, Audleys wood were really communicative - and were always available for my various requests and questions. Although we had a few wedding coordinators (due to maternity leaves and others leaving in our 2year long organising journey), they managed to do well to pass information on. We had a fantastic food tasting (the restaurant in wonderful!) and were able to visit the venue as often as we needed to scope out design ideas. We booked the getting ready room and the room next door (attached by a interconnecting door) and had so much space for the 9-person bridal party to get ready in! It was a wonderful space. During the wedding, they bent almost in half backwards for us. The staff were so attentive, so thoughtful and happy, and so professional. The day ran so smoothly with not one s

Audleys Wood were fantastic from start to finish. Nothing was too much to ask for the venue team and they were always flexible in terms of what we needed to get out of our special day. Other venues to consider were not so flexible when it came to menu choices. Audleys Wood were different. They were keen to ensure dietary requirements were safe but also willing to make exceptions for a few fussy eaters! The Garden Pavilion was excellent and upon our arrival the day prior to setup, all tables were already laid out with the stock decorations making our lives much easier despite the warm weather. Thee venue team worked very well with the suppliers to ensure they were clear on timings in advance. Special mention to Charlotte Edwards and Michael Judd (Toastmaster) who w

We used Audleys Wood Hotel as our wedding venue after going to a wedding fair at the venue. Audleys Wood really went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. The whole package is really such a special experience and includes a lot for a great price. The team are so friendly with everyone going above and beyond. Neal in the lead up to and on the day was such an amazing help and Audleys were more than accommodating with any questions and meetings. Communication was very good, they always responded to emails, phone calls etc. in a timely manner. I really would encourage anyone to use Audleys Wood as their venue, the venue itself is beautiful and was great when it rained on our wedding day as the inside is just as beautiful as the outside. We had a lovely wedding here with so much effort put in by the venue and its employees, thank you so much Audleys Wood!
