The best venue ever!
From viewing the venue to the very end we were looked after by all here. Sophie and Rene were so attentive and nothing was too much trouble for them. I honestly couldn't have wished for a more perfect day and it’s all thanks to these guys. We are so lucky to have had them by our side throughout. I've loved every minute of our experience.

Everything we wanted & more
The venue is so beautiful, well maintained and we loved how much space there was for all of our guests. We knew that it was the one as soon as we arrived at the initial viewing. All of the staff were amazing throughout, but Sophie and Rene were just exceptional, nothing was ever too much trouble. They went above and beyond and helped bring all of our ideas to life, they were always quick at responding to our many emails and getting meetings booked in. Everything ran so smoothly on the day!!

Great Experience
This venue has been incredible in helping us ensure our day ran as smoothly as possible. They were always open to our ideas and willing to make them work for everyone. They were responsive within emails and helpful when needing further information. On the day, they all worked incredibly hard to ensure the day ran perfectly which it did! Everything ran pretty much on time, food was beautiful & our guests and us really enjoyed the meal, staff were always polite and approachable.

Couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding!
Huge thanks to Hannah, Tony and all the team at Trunkwell House for making our wedding such an amazing day! It was brilliantly organised, everything ran very smoothly on the day and the team really took the stress out of it for us. The venue was beautifully decorated and the food was all delicious. The staff were extremely attentive, especially Tony who went well above and beyond to make sure we had the best day possible. We really couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding!

We couldn't fault a thing!
We had our wedding at Trunkwell on the 25.08.18 and it really exceeded our expectations we chose this venue over a year and half ago and we are so pleased we can’t fault anything. All the staff worked so hard to make our day so special a huge thank you to Hannah who done everything she could to help, answered all my questions (which was a lot lol) helped me on the day, nothing was too much trouble she treated us like friends and made me feel at ease! Especially as I was so nervous all the time, you are very kind and honest and clearly love your job so thank you! The food was amazing all our guests commented throughout the day and said how amazing everything was that’s so lovely to hear after a long time planning. The sun came out and we had our perfect day! I cannot recommend this place enough. We also got to know Rosie who helped along the way and we must meet up for cat day � Thanks again Trunkwell we will be back soon All our love Mr & Mrs Puckey xxx

We had the best experience at Trunkwell!
My husband and I got married here on the 18th August 2018 and we truly had the best experience at Trunkwell. Everything ran so smoothly and Tony was superb! Hannah was our point of contact through out the planning process and answered all our questions. The week before we were able to drop off decorations and on the day I didn’t have to worry at all and the venue looked beautiful, everything I imagined. The bridal party was able to get ready first thing in the morning and the service was great from start to finish. We really did have the best day ever and we wish we could do it all over again! Thank you so much to all the team. Rosie & Mike xx

Excellent Service!
Excellent service. Had our wedding there recently and Hannah and Tony were brilliant, everything ran smoothly, nothing to worry about, little touches Tony added in off his own back made the day. Would recommend Trunkwell to anyone looking for a wedding venue!

Fantastic Wedding Day
My Step Son held his wedding here easter weekend April 2019. The day was fantastic from start to finish. On arrival at Trunkwell we were greeted and shown to our room which was stunning and very comfortable, the gardens were a very pleasant place to relax until the wedding ceremony which went without a hitch. Wedding breakfast was superb and adapted faultlessly to the Bride & Groom's wishes. The evening reception was a great success, with the resident DJ coping well with the parameters of the sound limiter, which did not spoil the evening and it's 'festival' theme. We had a great nights sleep followed by a generous full english breakfast, where extra portions were no trouble at all. I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding or similar celebration

It is a well oiled machine
I had my wedding reception at Trunkwell House in June. In the lead up to the wedding the service was professional, friendly and they couldn’t have been more helpful. It is a well oiled machine which ensured that everything went smoothly on the day. There are plenty of stunning spots to sneak off for photos. I couldn’t recommend Trunkwell House enough.

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

Don't panic and take your time to make decisions, its a big day and has to be perfect for you. Get a wedding planner book to help you keep track of things and use a spreadsheet for comparison when choosing your venue/suppliers.

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

Memory tables are beautiful and really touching, we've had a couple previously who have kept a reserved seat for a member who sadly couldn't be there but just because they couldn't be there doesn't mean they wouldn't be a part of their special day!
