It was a truly magical day....

On behalf of all our family and friends I just wanted to say a big thank you to all of the staff at Houchins. My son's wedding was on Saturday and it was a truly magical day. We hired the house from the Friday and everything about our stay and the wedding itself couldn't have been any better. The house was a wonderful setting and as my daughter-in-law had had to cancel her hen weekend due to Covid we had a lovely girls meal in instead on the Friday and it was wonderful. For the wedding day the venue looked stunning and the garden based layout worked perfectly. The staff could not have done more to make the event the special day it became and Jason in particular ensured that nothing was a problem. Thank you again for everything and the lifelong memories.

Houchins exceeded all our expectations...

We recently had a great experience at Houchins Wedding Venue for our daughters wedding. We are pleased to say that Houchins exceeded all our expectations, from the accommodation provided, that was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, to the actual service itself. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff and they bent over backwards to make everyone's day as perfect as possible. we are happy to highly recommend Houchins for anyone's special day.

You were so wonderful

Just a note to say thank you SO much for everything you did to make sure we had the perfect day on Thursday! From being so understanding about us having to move from our original date and contributing for our 'would be wedding day' video, to making sure everything ran like clockwork on Thursday ... you were so wonderful right from the moment we booked our wedding with you! Our guests still keep saying to us how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the staff were and we couldn't agree with them more - we're so pleased we booked with you! Houchins was absolutely perfect for us - the prefect venue with the perfect team...thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for giving us the wedding of our dreams!! All our love Mr & Mrs Preston
