The Orangery

We couldn’t say enough amazing things about the orangery- from booking through to the day it was such an easy and non stressful process. Michelle was so responsive to our questions and helped us to put together a day that really felt like “us”. We really felt listened to and understood in everything we had hoped for in our day. The food is amazing, the staff are

We had a beautiful experience with The Orangery at Mount Edgcumbe - we really can't recommend it enough. Michelle and her team were so helpful during the planning process and the day itself ran perfectly. The budget was easy to manage since the costs were made clear to us before booking and we sourced suppliers ourselves (some recommended by the venue!) so we could manage costs easily. We were already legally married but decided to have a Celebrant and ceremony in The Orangery which worked amazingly. It is such a beautiful venue and we didn't need to wear microphones because the room lended itself to our voices travelling - same for the speeches. We had 96 guests and this venue was the perfect size for us. The dancefloor is also a great size - small enough to have everyone dancing together but big enough to not be crammed in. The food was outstanding and they dealt with dietary requests really well. The service ran really smoothly for dinner as well and the wine stayed topped up! What we loved about this venue was it's beautiful setting with the formal gardens, the proximity to Plymouth (we caught the ferry there and back on the day!), the kindness shown by Michelle and her team and the stress-free wedding day. Once the venue was set-up by the staff, the room was set for the whole day. Other venues we visited had to set up for ceremony, then change the set up for drinks/dinner and then change again to set a dancefloor. The Orangery is an all-in-one! There is a lodge that can be rented as a getting-ready / quiet space, but we booked a room at the Edgcumbe Arms for the bride to get ready in whic

Michelle, Zoe and their team were amazing in every way - we could not have asked for a better team for our wedding day. Easy to talk to, knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. So many guests complimented us on how perfect the food was and how the service was so smooth - it went like a dream. Our guests loved the Orangery which is spacious and full of natural light. It is beautiful. Many of our guests loved the Italian Garden outside the Orangery where they sat, drank, chatted and relaxed in the sun. Many said they felt

We got married at Mount Edgcumbe House and then had our reception at the Orangery on 9th August 2025. It was simply the best day and the team and venue could not have been more perfect! From the moment we viewed The Orangery, it felt special. Michelle and her team are so so lovely and she was always on hand to respond to my many emails with excitement and kindness! I knew we were in safe hands. The food was absolutely incredible! We received so many compliments on it and on the venue too! It is such a special and beautiful place we can always return to and it definitely has the ‘wow’ factor! It

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who made our wedding day so unbelievably perfect for Brad and me. From beginning to end, the experience was nothing short of exceptional, and we will be recommending you with so much love for years to come. From our very first meeting, Michelle was simply amazing. Her kindness, patience, and constant support made the entire planning process feel calm and joyful. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and knowing she was always there at the end of the phone gave me so much reassurance every step of the way. When we dropped off our wedding decorations, I felt an overwhelming sense of calm and confidence, knowing everything would be set up exactly as we had envisioned. Letting go and trusting the team so completely allowed us to truly be present and soak up every magical moment of the day. Zoe was also incredible. Her attention to detail with the table setup was beautiful, and her gentle reassurance throughout the day meant more than she will ever know. She made everything feel seamless, cared for, and so special. The Orangery itself is absolutely breathtaking. What we loved most was knowing that it will always be a place we can return to — whether to celebrate our anniversary or simply pop in for a slice of cake — and relive those memories all over again. Since our wedding, we have received nothing but compliments about how stunning the venue was, how incredible the food tasted, and how genuinely lovely the whole team were. So many guests also said they had no idea the rest of the grounds even existed and were completely blown away by how special it all was. And the food… truly out of this world. It exceeded every expectation and is still being talked

My husband and I booked The Orangery for our wedding reception in July 2024 after getting married in Mount Edgcumbe House, and all I can say is it did not disappoint. Michelle and Kerri and the whole team were amazing and made our day just so special and captured exactly what was in our heads and on paper and turned it into reality. I would highly recommend having your wedding and or reception here as the location is stunning, making for gorgeous photos and the food is fabulous. I still have family and friends 3

We had the

Honestly, it's really to put into words our wedding day, because I feel words don't justify how Michelle, Kerri and the whole team as The Orangery made us feel on what was the best day of our lives. Michelle was so quick and responsive to all of my questions and small details and no question was ever a silly question. We met with Michelle and Kerri the day before our wedding and they made us feel so at ease and everything was organised and prepped ready to go. Kerri set up the reception decorations for us which was such an amazing treat to walk into what was a stunning room. Kerri was so attentive throughout the whole food service, with so many compliments from our friends and family about how delicious the food was and the wine choice as well. The whole team was just incredible, even with constantly serving us throughout the night and we can't say a bigger thank you to The Orangery. The actual venue itself is stunning with so many different areas for guests to explore. It was such an experience, especially with getting a ferry back

The Orangery was the best place for us to hold our wedding and I am so happy that we ch

Michelle and the team at The Orangery couldn't have been more professional and supportive in helping us arrange our wedding day. The venue and gardens are beautiful, and a stone's throw from the water's edge, which added real scale and grandeur to the occasion. Our guests arrived and left via ferry which they all loved, and from the welcome drinks to the goodnight pasties, everything ran seamlessly and on time. The whole day was brilliantly organised and executed by The Orangery's wonderfully capable and conscientious team. Michelle really listened to us during our planning meetings, but she was also great at offering advice and made us feel completely at ease. Planning a wedding is definitely stressful, but The Orangery couldn't have done more to welcome us and the team worked so hard to make sur

The Orangery is the perfect setting for a wedding reception. It's classy. Michelle, who runs the show, made us feel so relaxed from our first meeting. Her planning and attention to detail is first class. The food was perfectly cooked (the chocolate brownie was actually served warm....that doesn't happen very often.) Don't b

Where do I even start! Our wedding experience at Mount Edgecumbe was an absolute dream from the moment we went to visit. Michelle was an absolute star in every possible way, always on hand to answer my many neurotic questions with kindness and good humour. She runs a tight ship with clear processes that take any stress away from the big day, she is basically your own personal wedding planner :D, on the actual day her team (headed up by the unflappable Kerri who ran the whole day!) dealt with EVERYTHING I had nothing to worry about apart from when to start the bar tab :D. The venue itself is just stunning, in beautiful gardens right next to the sea, everything is included apart from your own flowers/decorations/placecards ect. We had so many wonderful compliments from friends and family on the food and the stunning venue. Its excellent val

It was The Orangery that we fell in love with when choosing the venue for our special day and Michelle and her team went above and beyond to make it everything we could have hoped for. When we met with Michelle to discuss what we wanted, she shared a range of packages with us and answered all of the questions that we had. Unfortunately, we had to postpone our wedding twice and the team at The Orangery were nothing short of amazing when helping us move our date. We met with Michelle and the coordinator the day before our wedding reception and went through the set up of the day. It was absolutely perfect and we felt so at ease because of the hard work and effort that went into making our day exactly what we wanted. Our day was fantastic from start to finish and The Orangery is definitely a v

The Orangery is the most perfect setting for a wedding reception, with stunning views of the gardens, beautiful backdrops for picturesque photos, amazing food, a large indoor space for dancing and space for a band! Between welcome drinks, canapés, food and dancing, you can walk up the paths to take in breath-taking views of Plymouth Sound as the sun sets, walk around the gardens with a glass of prosecco in hand, or sit outside to take a breather. Before coming to the Orangery for our reception, we said our vows at the house in the gardens surrounded by our friends, with views of Plymouth and the sea. It couldn't have been more special. Then, our guests were taken down in a Land Rover for welcome Pimms, scones with jam and cream, and canapés, whilst we were driven to spots around the park for some beautiful photos. On our arrival to the Orangery, fresh nibbles and drinks were waiting for us as we walked to greet our guests with the sun beaming through the large glass windows. The staff couldn't have been any more attentive - nothing was too much trouble and they helped the day run so smoothly. Including setting up our tables to exactly how I envisioned! During the evening, there was a flawless transition from wedding breakfast to toasting drinks, and then into an evening of dancing. We loved e

'Exceptional' is the only word appropriate to describe our experience working with Michelle and the every team member at the Orangery. Nothing was too much trouble, from helping with dietary requirements to sorting out my table decorations! Our day ran so smoothly with zero issues. We received nothing but compliments from our guests at how wonderful the food, the service and the overall experience was. I honestly can't praise them enough - our day was wonderful. We followed their guidelines for timings and everything was simply perfect. We feel so blessed to have chosen the Orangery for our special day. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
