We honestly don’t even know where to start with how amazing our experience was at The Venue. From the very beginning of our wedding planning right through to the big day itself, everyone was absolutely incredible. The wedding meetings at 6 months and then 1 month to go were so helpful and made us feel completely at ease. Any time I emailed with a question during the planning process, I always got such a quick response, which made such a difference when there are a million things going through your head while planning a wedding! We also loved our food tasting, especially being able to bring our mums along with us, and the food on the actual day was honestly DELICIOUS (and the portions were huge!). Lucy, our wedding coordinator, was absolutely brilliant with us from start to finish and we genuinely couldn’t have asked for anyone better. But I have to say, ALL of the staff are an absolute credit to The Venue. From the room turnarounds, the amount of bar staff serving on the night, serving the wedding breakfast, cutting and serving our cake, bringing out the evening food and everything in between, everything was just done so seamlessly. We also loved that everything was all in one place. The venue is so spacious, beautifully clean and there was plenty of room for everyone without it ever feeling cramped. Our wedding day was genuinely so perfect and everything went exactly how we hoped it would. We cannot thank Lucy and the whole team enough for everything they did for us and for making our day so special. If we could do it all over again, we would choose this venue twice over! We honestly couldn’t recommend i

Our wedding at the venue was just PERFECT!! The attention to detail, the smooth running of the day and the friendlies of Rebecca the co-ordinator and all the lovely staff. Everyone was so kind, polite and always making sure everyone was happy. Our guests were so impressed and the food was incredible 🤤😍 The day ran so smoothly, I had no worries or stress the team had everything under control, every email I sent over whilst planning our big day was responded to promptly and nothing was ever to much for any of the team. The venue is beautiful, so picturesque and the outdoors is stunning, the minute I looked around the venue I knew

The venue is absolutely stunning and all staff were amazing from start to finish! We couldn't have asked for better coordinators than Oliver and Lydia! They were just incredible and so fun! A special mention to Oliver who went above and beyond making sure we had the best day - he was amazing. Everyone has said how fantastic the venue was and how beautiful it looked and how brilliant all the staff were! We had the best day ever! The packages are great value for money and just made the whole process stress

I have nothing but the ultimate praise for this Venue. From the second we walked into a wedding showcase we knew it was our dream venue. The food is absolutely fantastic and we got nothing but compliments. The venue it's self is beyond beautiful inside and out, you'll never get irs full beauty unless you visit. And all the extras in the package make it the ultimate value for money. The best thing though has to be the staff, from management we met along the way to the bar/waiting staff on the day all were the ultimate professionals and couldn't do enough for us. A special shout out to Lydia our coordinator who went above and beyond for all our needs and made our day run perfectly. There is a reason why this place has so many amazing

Words will never do this incredible venue justice. It was the only the second venue we viewed but as soon as we saw it we knew it was the place we wanted to be married and cancelled any other viewings at other venues. From the moment we walked in the door to view to our wedding day we couldn’t have asked any more from the staff. Our coordinator Lucy was amazing and every question and email was dealt with quickly and nothing was ever too much trouble. We visited the venue on each open day they had and loved it more and more and more

We got married here on Saturday 23rd August 2025 and had a wedding that truly exceeded all our expectations. From the very beginning, the communication and organisation with the team were first class — nothing was ever too much trouble and every query was handled with care and professionalism. On the day itself, everything ran seamlessly, exactly as we had imagined down to the finest details. The running order went perfectly to plan, which allowed us to relax and just enjoy every moment. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue looked, how polite and attentive the staff were, and — most importantly — how absolutely delicious the food was. The food options were outstanding, and one of the highlights of the day. We decided to go for sharing boards rather than the traditional three-course meal, but we also had a taster of both during our planning. Both options were utterly delicious, and the wide variety of dishes gave us the chance to really personalise our wedding breakfast to our own tastes. Guests loved the choice and the quality was exceptional throughout. A special mention must go to our wedding coordinator Lydia, who was simply outstanding. She had everything prepared, was always on hand if needed, and kept the whole day flowing effortlessly in the background. Her calm, organised approach meant we never had to worry about a thing. If we could do it all

What an amazing day we had! Everything ran so smoothly and was everything we had dreamed of and more. From the beautiful rustic and unique venue, the friendly and helpful staff, and the amazing food. From viewing the venue, we fell in love with it and knew we had to get married there, we booked it there and then. Nothing was too much trouble, everything we asked for was done. I felt settled and had no stress or worries about the venue and everything that went with it. Hannah was our amazing wedding coordinator and was present throughout our special day to ensure it went perfectly. Even when being roped in to role playing last minute wit

We couldn't recommend Rebecca and the team at the Venue enough! As soon as we viewed the venue, we knew it was going to be the place for us. We were made to feel so welcome, and we really couldn't have asked for anything more during the planning process and on the big day itself. We had the most wonderful day, and we think that is a testament to Rebecca and the team for keeping it running so smoothly. We didn't have to worry about a thing and were able to just fully enjoy the day. The venue itself is so versatile; we were able to use the full room for a ceilidh, but then close it off to have a smaller dance floor for the DJ. We mixed up our table shapes to acco

We had our wedding at The Venue last week and honestly it was incredible. The Venue team couldn’t have done enough for us. Lydia was our wedding coordinator on the day and she was amazing, so calm and efficient, nothing was too much. The Venue is stunning and all the staff were so friendly. I wish we could relive our wedding day every year a

We had our wedding at The Venue on Friday 8th August and it couldn’t have been a better day. All of the staff were fantastic, but Hannah, in particular, was just incredible. We genuinely didn’t want for anything, and anything we needed was provided immediately. Both of our families commented on her organisation and control of the day and we cannot thank her enough. As two nervous brides we were made to feel calm and really, really special as soon as we arrived (from the moment we came to look around, to be honest!). We’ve had nothing but compliments on choosing such a

We had our special day at The Venue on 19th July and we can't thank them enough! From the second we walked in to view it in December 2023, we knew it was the one. Every single member of staff is so attentive and compassionate towards you and really do everything they can to make your special day exactly what you want! Myself and my husband would like to specially say a huge thank you to Hannah, our wedding coordinator! From our first meeting with her, she put us at ease and really guided us with what we needed to do and so forth. On the day, she was always on hand to offer support to both ourselves and our guests and she really went our of her way to ensure our day ran smoothly! We really co

One of the best decisions we've ever made was choosing the venue. Every couple is made to feel so special all the way through the planning. They were fantastic help all the way, with regular catch ups and always open to questions. The day went so smoothly, everything just felt under control. Really special place- thank you so much

We can't even put into words how fantastic the team at Bowers Mill were in coordinating and executing our wedding. Bowers Mill was the first (and last) venue we looked at in our search for where to have our wedding. From the first glance we had at on their website, we knew that this was the perfect venue. Seeing it in-person confirmed this for us - I admit, we both teared up when we both first saw it. We had the pleasure of working with Hannah in planning our wedding. She was incredibly friendly and proactive in the planning stage, and we enjoyed meeting with her at several points in the lead-up to the big day. We discussed many adjustments that were required, such as alcohol-free, dietary requirements, and children's meals, and all of these were accommodated. After seeing the many decorations that they had to offer, our simple request was "make it pretty", which they executed to a high standard. Many guests commented how gorgeous the venue was; from the outside patio, to the spacious breakfast and reception area, to the intimate and rustic ceremony room. Not only did they ensure that the venue looked beautiful, but the day ran smoothly and without any issues. Everything ran to time and to a high quality and standard. One of our guests even had to ask if we had rehearsed the entire day with the venue since it ran so seamlessly! I'm sure that many engaged couples, when looking for their perfect wedding venue, will also be thinking about costs. Unlike other venues, there are no hidden costs. The quote we originally received in September 2023 remained the same all the way through until our wedding day. No extra costs for decorations or cutlery; what you see is what you get. We believe that we received incredible value for the money we paid! If you are thinking about booking this venue, we cannot recommend it enough! The team work so hard that you don't need to stress about the small details; you c
