Greenwoods Hotel & Spa

As soon as we visited, we knew it was our spot! And it's stayed that way ever since. Greenwoods is the most picturesque, perfect secret spot in Essex - with all the charm of the English countryside (including a farm next door!) and easy to reach from major motorways. I cannot use enough words to describe how ridiculously brilliant they are. The Wedding team led by Christie are second to none. I am a highly organised person who likes planning and meticulous detail - and I could not fault them. They were prepared, kind, confident and so incredibly welcoming to all of our guests and ourselves...they made it the perfect day. The venue is a dream - you will love every inch. Having booked all the rooms that night, it was a wonderful feeling to have our favourite spot filled with friends and family the day after our wedding too...we didn't want to leave! Oh ...and talking about the food - I mean, we've had every type of meal there and have never had a bad meal. It's simply ridiculous how this place can be so perfect to be quite frank! It's true beauty is its true nature. For a place this stunning, you would think the price tag to be unbearable...but we found it to be fair and incredibly worthwhile. If you are looking for somewhere that has charm, wonder and beauty, and you want a team that will work above and beyond for you - Greenwoods is your gal. ...I want to do it all again!! :-) Thank you to all the staff at Greenwoods for a truly perfect wedding day, Love, Mr and Mrs Cole!

We had the most magical and wonderful day getting married at Greenwoods. The staff were all so helpful and kind! The setting and multiple photo opportunities around the venue was amazing and our pictures came out beautiful! It’s a day we will never forget - being surrounded by so much love and happiness. We truly would recommend Greenwoods as a wedding venue!

“We got married at Greenwoods recently and I all can say is wow and thank you!! Our day ran perfectly and that’s solely down to the staff here - some of who were working all day - but even by the end of our night, nothing we asked for was too much trouble. The food was outstanding - we had many guests comment on how great it was especially seeing as they were catering for 100+ guests - it didn’t feel like a typical ‘large event’ meal but something you would expect in a restaurant. The venue is perfect, beautiful grounds and a stunning garden suite and there was no stress for my husband and I as everything was looked after, the staff clearly have a lot of experience in weddings as they were there and ready for the next part of the day before we were! I couldn’t recommend Greenwoods enough to any couples thinking of choosing it as their wedding venue! Thank you again

We had our wedding at Greenwood’s in June 2022 and never dreamed the day would be as amazing as it was all of our guests had the most amazing time and said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to! The staff were so organised and put so much thought time and effort in to make the day run as smoothly as possible and the venue it’s self is just absolutely stunning! We can’t praise them enough!

Greenwoods Hotel & Spa is a hidden gem. A place that has become so special in our relationship & we still go back to visit and enjoy its wonderful charm and magic! What makes it the best though is not the exquisite grounds and garden, or the beautifully kept Manor House, but it is the team of people working every day to make this place what it is. Their sheer kindness and consideration made our wedding the best day it could’ve possibly been - and they did it all with a smile & cheer…. And we will be now cheering them on forever!!! :) Greenwoods is generous, gracious and gold in every way.

It was faultless from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Great rooms, more than pleasant staff (who bent backwards to accommodate the six of us plus two children under 5 ) the wedding, the wedding reception, the food and then the great breakfast in the morning I would highly recommend this place !

Cannot put into words just how perfect this was. 2 night stay plus wedding ceremony, reception and evening. The attention to detail was fantastic. Venue stunningly beautiful. Food was lovely and service very good. Wedding coordinator was excellent. It really was just perfect

Perfect venue for a perfect wedding. The whole day ran like clockwork and nothing was too much trouble for the staff team as we were gently directed throughout the day. My niece looked beautiful and happy as she walked up the aisle in the lovely gardens. We had a brilliant time and at the end of the day an extremely comfortable bed. Thank you so much.

We had the most fabulous day here. The wedding coordinator Shannen ensured the day ran perfectly. We used their recommended suppliers, all brilliant. The food was superb. There was nothing we could fault. We would highly recommend this beautiful venue
