Our perfect wedding day, thank you
We fell in love with the facilities at The Fleece from the very first time that we visited, just short of two years before our wedding in July 2023. Carrie-Anne and the entire staff at The Fleece were absolutely brilliant throughout. They came to our rescue on more than one occasion when other plans went awry, ensuring our special day was indeed extremely special. If your looking for a venue that has wonderful views, a relaxed atmosphere combined with unbelievably professional service and fabulous food, then we cannot recommend The Fleece enough. Extremely special memories were made, not just for us, but for all our guests who said it was the best wedding they’d been to. Thank you so much to the entire team at The Fleece. Hopefully see you all again very soon. Amanda & Mike, Mr & Mrs McGann

We 100% recommend The Fleece for your wedding
We had the most perfect wedding day at The Fleece Countryside Inn. A huge thank you to everyone at The Fleece for bringing our wedding day dream to life. We chose the venue as it has a lovely homely, country and relaxed vibe, it’s not pretentious or over the top, yet still a perfectly stunning venue with incredible surrounding views. Carrie-Anne, was absolutely amazing from our first meeting, right up until the day, as were the other coordinators on the day. We couldn’t have asked for more.

Our special day was truly amazing
The Fleece was the perfect wedding venue. The picturesque views surrounding The Fleece set the back drop for many special photos. The staff couldn’t do enough for us and were on hand to ensure every little detail was perfect and that the day ran smoothly. We would like to say a HUGE thank you to Carrie-Anne and the events team for making everything come together. The food was amazing and the canapés were delicious! The rooms were incredibly cozy and our guests enjoyed staying in them.

We had the best day ever
We got married here the end of April and what a stunning and beautiful venue it is! We had the most amazing day and I wish I could just go back and re live it all again. They looked after us so well on the day and did a fantastic job! All our guest were so happy they all commented on how amazing the staff, venue, cocktails and food were. They also make the best cocktails ever. Very organised and made me feel at ease that everything was under control. Thank you to all the staff .

Everything we could have wished for!
Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish! The Fleece was everything we could have wished for in a Venue! The staff were so accommodating and we were allowed to style the gorgeous cosy venue exactly how we wanted! We were able to capture the most amazing photos with stunning views and the sun setting in the evening. All the guests were so impressed with the food and and reasonable pricing of drinks. We had a wedding that didn’t break the bank, but will certainly be a hard one to beat!!

FAQ

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?

We have had the privilege to host the most amazing and kind couples but the one's that stick out the most are weddings with games! Such as cocktail hour competitions, or the bring me up game! Always great entertainment for the guests and Fleece staff alike!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Get a wedding planner book! There are some amazing ones on the market with tips, timelines and every list you could possibly need! They are ideal for the less organised bride to help make the process easier, plus oh so satisfying for the highly organised Bride that loves a good expense sheet!

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

We absolutely loved Summer and Ashley's Table names, they were places they had been together displayed with a picture of them in location! Then people had to find their seat by looking at a map of the world!
