The venue is nestled within 83 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds which feature a picturesque three-acre lake. The idyllic setting provides perfect backdrops for those important wedding photographs. There are two event spaces to choose from at the Ardencote, licensed to hold civil ceremonies up to 150 guests.

Amazing
On the day of the wedding absolutely everything went to plan and the Ardencote team did every little thing we had asked of them. The day ran so perfectly and smoothly, all of the staff were amazing - with our MC deserving a special mention. The wedding breakfast was phenomenal - the food was delicious and portion sizes enormous! We and all of our guests had a fantastic time and we cannot thank the staff at Ardencote enough for all of the work and effort that was put in.

Thank You
We had our wedding at Ardencote in August. From the time of booking right up until the wedding day Megan was very helpful with helping us organise the day perfectly. Our day was absolutely amazing, and we couldn’t thank all the staff involved enough. A special thank you to our master of ceremonies Az, he was amazing throughout, making sure everything ran smoothly all day. We would highly recommend Ardencote to any couples looking at getting married here.

The most magical day
Myself and my fiancé at the time fell in love with the venue. We knew our photos would be perfect as the venue and setting is stunning and our wedding day delivered this and so much more! The staff were incredible from the first days of planning - to our wedding day. Nothing was too much trouble & I can’t thank all those who were involved enough.

Perfect Venue for a Perfect Wedding
We had our wedding day at the Ardencote in May 2023 and it was the most perfect day. From the moment we viewed the Ardencote for the first time, we new this was the perfect venue for us and that we were in good hands. Dawn was extremely helpful and always available to answer any of our questions throughout the planning process. Any of our suppliers who had worked with the Ardencote previously all had very high praise of how professional and efficient the Ardencote is with weddings. The venue and surroundings are absolutely beautiful, the rooms were fantastic (especially the bridal suite), the staff were incredibly attentive and professional, and I would like to give a huge thank you to Liz who was our master of ceremonies on the day and did a superb job of ensuring the day ran smoothly, her professionalism and energy was second to none! The food was fantastic, and everything went so smoothly and according to plan. Thank you Ardencote and team for the most fantastic and memorable day.

The most incredible day of our lives
Ardencote was the first and only venue we visited on our wedding journey back in April 2021. That first look around just blew us away. The staff were incredibly welcoming. Right from that moment until we departed the day after our wedding in April 2023, they couldn’t do enough for us. Every single details was sorted and taken control of by the wonderful team and we enjoyed our wedding day without any hiccups or problems along the way! The grounds looked incredible even in the rain and it really was the best day of our lives.

Exceeded all expectations
We had our wedding day here on 21.07.2023, it was absolutely amazing. Azhar was our master of ceremonies and he genuinely couldn’t do enough for us, he was so welcoming from the moment we got there, our room was set up perfectly. They actually set up both inside and outside as there was a chance it was going to rain. Azhar kept us both updated on the chances of rain throughout the morning so we could make a decision and he put no pressure on us making a decision right up until the last minute where we decided to chance it and go outside. The grounds are amazing, the food was incredible, the service was spot on. I didn’t hear any complaints at all from any of our guests, every person commented on how much of a beautiful venue ardencote was and how great the food and service was. The whole day far exceeded our expectations. Azhar went above and beyond to make our families feel comfortable, my dad was extremely nervous for his speech and he bought out a whisky for him to settle his nerves which I thought was such a lovely thing to do, my father in law is diabetic and he bought him a cheese board out for desert, it was these little touches that made such a difference. Megan and Dawn, the wedding planners were so helpful as well and always respond to emails promptly, we had several visits with them and they are so helpful. A massive thank you to all staff at Ardencote! We can’t wait to book to come back for our 1st year anniversary! Lisa and Anthony Treharne

An Amazing day
My husband and I were married in April 2023 at the Ardencote’s Lakeside Venue and it was such a beautiful day - The blossom tress which line the path were out in full bloom. All of the staff worked really hard to make our day really special which they achieved. Our guests even commented about how good the food was at the Wedding breakfast. We really would recommend this venue to anyone.
