Our happiest day by the sea
This was easily the best day of our lives, and the absolute perfect venue for us both. We had looked at many other venues but Thorpeness offered us everything, their wedding packages were very reasonably priced with many options to choose from. The venue is simple yet elegant, allowing us to decorate to our own style and taste. I had proposed to my wife by the sea so being by the sea for our wedding felt absolutely perfect. Nothing was too much trouble for our wedding coordinators Melanie and Blaize, they were very accommodating and helpful. Thank you so much Thorpeness!

Fantastic venue, with a service to match
An absolute pleasure to work with, nothing was too much trouble or too small to consider. The staff's attention to detail is exemplary, every single person is friendly, helpful, and a delight to talk to. Both the golf club and the country club are beautiful buildings, the sea view has to be seen to be believed, and the hotel rooms are large, comfortable, and well maintained. To top it all off, the food is deserved of awards, the bar is well stocked, and all prices are more than fair. I would unhesitatingly recommend Thorpness for any event, or even for a midweek meal in their restaurant!

The perfect wedding reception
A huge thank you to the staff for all their help in the build-up of the wedding and on the actual day. Mel and Blaize were brilliant. Not to mention how amazing they were the day before the wedding, helping to bring my vision to life as well as being a calm, positive influence. We had so many wonderful compliments regarding the food throughout the day. We can’t thank Thorpeness Country Club enough for helping to make our day the most magical, best day of our lives.
