- KKloe & Ben18/05/2025The best day ever, can we do it again!The best day ever, can we do it again!The Olde Englad Kiosk is beautiful inside and out. It was the most perfect place for us to make incredible memories. Donna and Mark are just amazing, so lovely and friendly, and the communication was very easy. They handle everything, venue, decs, food, Dj... made the planning very relaxed. The big day went without hiccup. The minute I stepped foot in the venue I felt relaxed, the ceremony setup was beautiful, the atmosphere was calm and everyone had big smiles, it helped settle the nerves. Once the ceremony was done we had pictures taken in the beautiful grounds of sunnyhusrt woods. Absolutely stunning!!! We had a wedding breakfast, the room set up was so lovely, the food was delicious and generous.. the duration was laid back allowing time to eat and mingle. After the meal as people started to leave to get ready for the night do, we already felt so complete and happy. The room transformed, the dj appeared and the night do started..it just kept getting better.. fantastic sweetie cart, not just a hit with the kids but the grownups too!! BBQ for night time food was the best idea ever. My husband and I took a minute to sit outside with our burgers and hot dogs, everyone inside, it had gone dark and we jusr sat enjoying the peacefulness of the woods. It was abeautiful moment to treasure. Then we all danced our socks, will in my case, crocs off. Mark and the staff on the day were fantastic. All our guests had the best time, they loved the venue just as much as us, we have had nothing but positive things said to us. Thank You Mark and Donna for the best day ever!! And Thank you to your team on the day they were great too. :)The Olde Englad Kiosk is beautiful inside and out. It was the most perfect place for us to make incredible memories.

- EEmma & John04/12/2018perfect wedding venueperfect wedding venueCan't thank the team enough for providing excellent, down to earth service and bending over backwards for my husband and I and all of our guests. Little changes were made throughout the day in order to accommodate my son who has autism, including cooking him a personalised meal due to his dietary requirements. The food was of a very high quality and the bar was open all day. Beautiful surroundings and a laid back, chilled atmosphere made the day especially special. Also very competitive prices/packages. Cannot recommend highly enough for the perfect wedding venue.
