would certainly recommend The Birch

We really enjoyed our day, and would certainly recommend The Birch as a perfect location for a celebration. Izzy has been very supportive through the changing arrangements because of the government restrictions. Also, Izzy arranging the smaller room made it more intimate and private with the reduced number of guests.

We couldn’t have picked a better venue

Dear Izzy, had the most fantastic day and a lot of that was down to you and all the staff at The Birch. We would like to say that the way you and the staff conducted yourselves couldn’t have been any better. This is really hard to put into words but intuitively you seemed to know exactly what we wanted and it felt that nothing was too much trouble. You made us feel very special, not only with the table decorations but the champagne and petals in our room - just fantastic!!! We couldn’t have picked a better venue and we will be recommending you to everyone we know. You all did the most amazing job and we can’t thank you enough. This includes all the cleaners and staff behind the scenes that we didn’t see. A special thanks to the chef and kitchen staff who had 30 clean plates for every course because the food was so good and we had so many comments confirming this. A massive heartfelt thanks

Exactly what they dreamed

Hi Caroline, We just wanted to say a big thank you for all the hard work you and your team put in to make Z and Ms' wedding a real success, they said they had an amazing time and they thought it couldn't have gone any better, it was exactly what they dreamed it would be and better. Thank you so much for making everywhere look so beautiful and for coordinating everything so that the day ran smoothly, you did a great job. We really appreciated how friendly all the staff were at the hotel, lots of the guests commented on this as it added to the lovely atmosphere. Thanks also to those that worked hard on the food it tasted delicious and was so beautifully presented. We also really enjoyed staying at the hotel and having breakfast with our friend and family in the morning. So, again thanks so much for everything, we will definitely recommend 'The Birch' to our friends as we had such an enjoyable weekend.
