Brilliant venue
We were lucky enough to host our wedding at Highley Manor in August 2023. The venue lived up to our expectations in all areas. The staff were excellent, nothing we asked for was too much. Multiple people commented about the quality of the food throughout the day, and it is still mentioned 5 months post the wedding. The flexibility provided by the venue meant we could have the wedding day we wanted, representing us as a couple.

The best day!
My wife and I got married here a couple days ago. It was a truly unforgettable day which Highley played such a big part in. It's a beautiful venue, the staff (in particular Gemma, our wedding co-ordinator) were fantastic and the food was excellent. The bridal suite was also beautiful and very comfortable. We wouldn't hesitate recommending Highley as a wedding venue.
