Awesome all round venue in the heart of the forest

I am the in-house DJ I have seen this hotel evolve over a period of 17 years so along with a couple of other wedding suppliers we have a unique view into this stunning hotel. I estimate to have DJ'd at at least 1190 weddings and events & over this time its been a true privilege to have seen so many happy people leaving at the end of the day. I have also held several conferences myself and also stayed, dined at the hotel many times as a guest. There is nothing the staff wont do to ensure that you are happy, the food is sublime & the hotel is always kept clean and there is excellent attention to detail. I personally think Careys Manor is the best cost effective wedding venue (for the level of service & professionalism) you can find in the New Forest & beyond.

Our dreams came true!

Françoise is a brilliant wedding planner. It’s clear she has many years’ experience as she knew exactly what she was talking about every step of the way. The day flew by but was everything we hoped it would be and more. We are so grateful to Careys Manor and all the staff/ suppliers who helped out on our big day for making our dreams come true!

We have just spent 2 nights at Carey’s Manor Hotel and just wanted to say how amazing our stay was. Massive thank you to everyone working there- polite, friendly and extremely welcoming. Genuinely couldn’t fault anything. The Sen Spa was so relaxing and all facilities were spotlessly clean. Thank you to Shaz - front of house in the restaurant she was very lovely despite being clearly very busy. The food in the French restaurant was excellent and full of flavour. We rate this entire stay 10/10-

The best decision we could have ever made

Careys is an amazing place to get married and really do go above and beyond to ensure the day is as perfect as can be! We’re blown away by how even the smallest details really were perfect! We are so excited to return next May to celebrate our first anniversary, and raise a glass to a massively exciting first year of being married!

Careys Manor was the first venue we looked at

Careys Manor was the first venue we looked at. I had been there before for afternoon tea and told Chris I’d always thought it would be a lovely place to get married. After visiting and discussing wedding packages with the wedding coordinator we decided very quickly that Careys Manor and the Complete Celebration Package was the perfect fit for us. As part of our package, we got to go for a menu tasting to try the starter, main and dessert options are guests would have. All three options were deli

We loved the venue, it was beautiful but relaxed

We loved the flexibility of Careys Manor, attention to detail was great and we were able to make the day personal to us... What we really liked about Careys Manor was that there were areas for us all to be together, without being in separate places. And that those who couldn’t dance were still able to watch. The outside areas were pretty and private too, and the rooms just flowed!

The most magical day made even more special!

We would both love to thank the team at Careys Manor. They made the most magical day even more special, we did not have a single worry on the day and everything went so smoothly – we wouldn’t change a thing! We are both really looking forward to coming back for our anniversary next year!
