After your ceremony and photographs the 2 course wedding breakfast will be served upstairs in out function suite with high draped ceiling and beautiful open beams, dripping with sparkling fairy lights. A flute of Prosecco will be served to all your guests either after the ceremony or as a toast as part of the package
Following the wedding reception, your guests will be invited to retire downstairs where they can relax by our open log fire. Our resident DJ will set up as we changeover the room for your evening party to start. On arrival of your evening guests, our resident DJ will ease you in to the second wave of celebrations with your playlist and guests can drift upstairs as they please.
We will gather your guests for your first dance as a married couple, closely followed by hot sandwiches of your choice. All that remains is romance and the dancing will continue until midnight.

Amazing day
I was best man at a wedding here a couple of years ago. The day was absolutely amazing and made even better by the fact that I could distract the groom with the driving range when he was getting nervous! The staff looked after us well and were friendly throughout the day. Slightly miffed that my friends found this place first, cos I would have loved to get married here myself!
