The best wedding day we could ever imagine!
We would like to say the biggest thank you for the best wedding day we could ever imagine! The while process has been a dream, from booking our day over two years ago to it finally arriving. Your hosting and service was absolutely fantastic and we couldn’t have been happier. Your attention to detail was noticed by so many guests. We received lots of compliments throughout the day and have been told by many guests it’s one of the best weddings they have been to. I cannot say enough to express how grateful we are! Your team is truly amazing and the best at what they do. We felt so looked after and calm throughout the whole day. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We have memories that will last forever.

It was better than we could have imagined from start to finish.
Thank you so much for all your help over the last 18+ months and on the day itself. It was better than we could have imagined from start to finish. Sorry we didn’t get to see you on the day, but it’s testament to your meticulous work in the lead up to it that we didn’t need anything from Meg and the girls checking in at Thicket Lodge the night before, to breakfast the morning after, it was incredible and we will never forget it. Especially Rebecca’s help saving my skin when I forgot the print outs of the reading and bride’s dad’s speech!!So many guests complemented us on the day and the venue and how well everything went. So much of that is down to the whole Bartle Hall team who were amazing. Thank you to Ritchie who was there for anything and everything we needed on the day, including help sterilise baby bottles! All the staff involved in the wedding breakfast and evening couldn’t have been more helpful either. The venue itself was stunning as it always has been any time we’ve visited since we booked. Can’t believe we won’t see it again, apart from maybe a visit with Evelyn to say thank you to everybody! It really is a beautiful place and will be top of our list should anyone ever ask us for a wedding venue recommendation. We will forever be grateful for how much of a part the whole Bartle Hall team played in making the biggest day of our lives be the best day of our lives. We absolutely could and would do it again, over and over and over! Thank you thank you thank you!

The day was absolutely perfect from start to finish.
Now things have settled we just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you did for us on our Wedding Day! The attention and service from the whole wedding team from the moment we booked until the day itself was amazing. The actual day was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The girls and I had the loveliest night in Thicket Lodge and then everything was so seamless the next day. The venue, the food, the party - it was just everything we could have dreamed of! Massive thank you also goes to Taylor who could not have done more for us - nothing was too much bother and she was so lovely and easy going :)

We wish we could do it all again!
To all at Bartle Hall, we just want to say a massive thankyou to all who made our wedding day one of the best days of our lives. We attached some pictures and would love to leave this review....'We just want to say a massive thankyou to the team at Bartle Hall for making our wedding day one of the best days of our lives! From the Wedding Showcase (which stands out from the crowd) we knew straight away this was our wedding venue. From there, nothing was too much trouble and they made the whole process stress free! The day went so smoothly and we didn't have to think about a thing- except enjoying our day with our family and friends! The food was exceptional and our guests are still trying to replicate the honey carrots! Our guests are still talking about our wedding day and we owe a lot of this to the Bartle Hall Team! We wish we could do it all again!

Thank you to everyone at Bartle for making our dream wedding a reality.
Luke and I wanted to say a massive thank you to you all for giving us our dream wedding on Friday, it was everything we ever hoped for and more! The day was seamless and we never felt rushed at all, from the moment I arrived to check into Thicket Lodge until the day after the wedding when checking out the entire staff couldn't have been more helpful! All of our guests have raved and complimented everything from the building itself, to the food, bedrooms and service. We wanted to specifically thank Jenny who couldn't have been more helpful and patient throughout our meetings and numerous emails and to Ritch who couldn't have done much for us on the day! He was always around ensuring we had everything we needed, but never felt imposing. Thank you to everyone at Bartle for making our dream wedding a reality.

Bartle Hall will always hold a very special place in our heart
What an amazing day we had we couldn’t have asked for it to of gone any smoother. You was all absolutely fabulous. Can I just give a special mention to Tayla, Rebecca and Jenny. Tayla you was amazing on the day, anything I asked wasn’t too much and were ever I turned you were in eye sight to help me. Not only did me and Ric notice this but the majority of our guests did too! Rebecca you made our vision come to life and hats off on the AIX it went down an absolute treat with our guests added that wow element. Jenny you was the first person we met at bartle and the support in getting to the day was amazing, you always had the answer. Bartle hall will always hold a very special place in our heart and I hope we can celebrate many more weddings with you and hope that it has inspired our family and friends to choose this beautiful venue. Not only because of the venue and grounds but because of the amazing team you have!

We are truly thankful! 
We just wanted to pop you a message to say how incredibly thankful we are for Saturday. The staff have been so helpful and made the whole lead up and the day just perfect. Special thanks to Rebecca, Rachel and Jenny you’ve all been so helpful and made the day so easy! And also a massive thank you to Tayla, we didn’t stop belly laughing the whole time and she has definitely left a great impression with the bridal party! Also the guys that helped out with my Nan, it was definitely not an ideal situation but the way it was handled we couldn’t have asked for more. We are truly thankful! What an incredible day and we certainly couldn’t have done it without you all ❤️
