Completely Perfect
We got married at Orchardleigh on 4 Nov, and everything was exceptional. At times during the planning process we felt response times were slower than we'd like, but Heather completely understood this, covered all bases and (deservedly) had complete confidence in her team and their ability to coordinate a stunning day. Everything was seamless: from setup, the transport to the church in Lullington, accommodation the night before and on the day, food and coordination, ending in a wonderful stay in

Would recommend to anyone
We got married here on Friday the 3rd of nov. On the run up to the wedding any time we had a question Annamarie had the answer and the response as soon as possible which made the planning process very easy. From arriving the day before to decorate the venue to leaving the morning after it ran so smoothly there was not a second of this time where we worried about anything. The staff on the day were amazing and kept everything going as it should have done. The added bonus of the boat house for

Best Venue we could have hoped for
This venue truly has it all. From the moment we were shown around the venue last year by Claire we fell in love. Our day was made so special by Phoebe and the rest of the staff where nothing was too much trouble for them. We had our day on a Friday in January and we were so lucky with the weather, however we viewed the venue on a cold wintry day and it looked just as spectacular. All the guests praised the staff, food and the venue so much it really made our day. If you're after a wow factor ve

Magical Venue, Brilliant Staff
We booked Orchardleigh House for our wedding with 2 years' notice. Over that time they were always quick with communications and we were left with the feeling that we were in safe hands. Our coordinator was Heather and she was both helpful and accommodating, even to more unusual requests from us. On the day, either she or a member of staff was always present to make sure the bride and groom were comfortable and to help with any issues. Orchardleigh House itself is an incredible venue, with a ver

Fantastic Setting
Rachel & her team provided us the best day of our life’s. They are professional, kind & welcomed us with warm arms. They went up and beyond to make our day so special. The food was spectacular and great quality. I would highly recommend Orchardleigh house great Valley for money and setting. We was able to take our dog Louis who loved the surroundings. Our family was so amazed with the setting and such a beautiful house. Thank you so much guys. This is one day we will never forget. Lots of love

The perfect venue
We're so happy we picked Orchardleigh House for our wedding. Everything was perfect (or as perfect as things can be a week before lockdown)! Karl made sure everything ran smoothly, the venue and grounds were beautiful, and the extras the venue offer like the night in the castle and boat house were lovely and unique to the venue. The atmosphere at the wedding and every visit leading up to it was also great and it seemed like everyone wants to make your wedding day special. Everyone was so welcoming.

I can’t recommend Orchardleigh enough!
From the day that we got engaged, my husband and I knew we always wanted our wedding at Orchardleigh. Not only is the estate and venue such a beautiful and magical place the staff are so wonderful and helpful. I couldn’t ask for a better team to take care of us for our big day. The whole day was a breeze and exactly what we wanted. It all ran perfectly smooth because of the amazing staff. We turned our day into a weekend, having 80 guests stay on property the whole weekend. The food was fantastic. I can’t recommend Orchardleigh enough!
