Description

Every wedding at Wilde Lodge includes exclusive use of the venue for up to three nights, guaranteeing privacy and tranquility. The Main Lodge sleeps 14 and features thoughtfully designed rooms that combine the traditional feel of the house with contemporary touches. Next to the Main Lodge is 'The Long Barn' which is a recently converted rustic space to say 'I do' in front of 90 seated guests or simply to use to party the night away in. The barn can be transformed into a chill out area, cinema, dance floor or cocktail bar, the choice is completely yours! Our 'Open Barn' is the perfect social space for welcome drinks and canapés with views spanning over our neighbouring ponies, or for an evening chilled space subtly lit up to take in the events of the day. Finally our Wilde Safari Tent, a fabulous marquee nestled within the old barn walls, complete with its own bespoke 16ft bar, is the perfect dining turn dance area for all your guests to enjoy. From the dining room in the Main Lodge, ideal for more intimate family meals, to the riverside perfect for wild swimming, Wilde Lodge is full of secret gems. The large gardens and grounds allow plenty of space to create beautiful Bell Tent Villages so all your guests can have a luxurious glamping experience and your wedding can extend beyond the day and turn into a full weekend celebration. If you would like to see our beautiful venue in person, please get in touch & we arrange this at a time that suits you!

Stunning rural wedding venue
Wilde lodge was local to us so made sense for us to go to an open day. We were blown away by the stunning backdrop, and fell in love with the stunning ceremony location of the Long Barn. We had to book it. We also loved the fact that we could get the venue for the whole weekend meaning family from further afield could stay and making the whole process stress free. The fact we could set up the day before also meant we spent the morning of our wedding focused on us.

Our amazing summer day ❤️
We had our amazing day in August, at the stunning wilde lodge. Wilde lodge was local to us so made sense for us to go to an open day. We were blown away by the stunning backdrop, and fell in love with the stunning ceremony location of the Long Barn. We had to book it. We also loved the fact that we could get the venue for the whole weekend meaning family from further afield could stay and making the whole process stress free. The fact we could set up the day before also meant we spent the morning of our wedding focused on us. Jess our wedding coordinator was fantastic from start to finish. Not only was she simply lovely, she was easy to talk to and any questions we had she answered quickly. During the day she was always on hand, helping organise everything, being super reassuring, and providing much needed pina coladas. A few amazing extras they have at Wilde Lodge also topped it off for us. Our dog was there on the day which a lot of venues don't allow. Jess even helped up put her harness on. They have a stunning Landrover to take you for photos which was amazing in it's own right. The bar staff were also stellar and just so lovely, making our own custom cocktails. Many thanks, Mr and Mrs Griffiths

A day so perfect we're desperate to do it again!
Where can we start?! We fell in love with Wilde Lodge the moment we found it online - let alone the private visit we had and then two subsequent trips for open days! We were made to feel so welcome and comfortable at every single visit. The setting is so private and tranquil that we really felt like Wilde Lodge was 'ours' over our wedding stay, and that feeling will forever be a real highlight for us. The quality of the accommodation and various areas in which you can conduct your ceremony and reception is just incredible. Wilde Lodge is a truly luxurious countryside home and grounds! The staff, however, were the cherry on top. Hannah, our magnificent wedding coordinator, was on hand from the very beginning - responding quickly to our numerous 'silly questions', checking in with us via video call and then being the most caring and supportive cheerleader when we arrived to set up...not to mention taking care of us both separately when nerves about public speaking inevitably hit. We don't think we've ever seen someone graft so hard and put in so many hours to make sure that we felt that everything was exactly how we pictured it. Wilde Lodge...wow. Thank you.

A Fairytale Wedding Venue
Whilst this review has been in the making some time following our wedding in July this year, we simply felt time was needed to do absolute justice to the truly wonderful venue that is Wilde Lodge. Having been to see a few venues around our local area prior to booking, we had continued to leave venues somewhat overwhelmed and deflated. We had started wondering if that feeling of knowing a venue is 'the one' was a simple fairytale. That was however until we stumbled across Wilde Lodge back in 2023 and thankfully booked ourselves in for one of the many open days they were offering to perspective couples. Whilst some may say it was the delicious cinnamon buns that drew us in (and they wouldn't be lying), it was hard not to fall in love with the beautiful grounds, lodge and white wash walls of the venues wedding barn (just one of the many places the venue has to offer for your ceremony to take place). It was on that day and upon driving back down the tree lined lane that we knew Wilde Lodge was meant for us and their was no other place we wished to get married. Whilst the venues location and utter character is hard to beat, it is the staff who truly make Wilde Lodge what it is with their dedication, kindness and hospitality. From the staff behind the bar, to those cleaning tables and all of the other tasks that go on behind the scene, every single member helped to make our wedding day an utter success and we cannot thank them enough. We do however want to extend our special thanks to our truly amazing wedding coordinator Hannah who is an absolute angel and brought our wedding dreams to life. Not only on the wedding day itself but on the months leading up to the wedding, be that via email or during our scheduled checkins Hannah was always on hand and helped to make the somewhat stressful time of planning a wedding a rewarding and much easier process. Not only ourselves but our whole family are forever grateful to Hannah, words will never be enough to thank her for what she did in helping us becoming a newly married couple. Wilde Lodge will always have a special place in ours and our families hearts and we will remember our wedding day with memories of pure joy and happiness. Sending all our love to the Wilde Lodge Team and to all those considering booking a visit to Wilde Lodge, dont wait a moment longer, do it and know that you will be finding the wedding venue of your absolute dreams! Mr and Mrs Ewers ❤️

Magic from start to finish
The venue is spectacular, so many amazing spaces and beautiful views, and the food by CSONS perfect. We are overjoyed that we found Wilde Lodge and you all. You delivered the day we always hoped to achieve and more and you did it whilst making us feel like family. Your support and guidance in the run up to the day made us feel in such safe hands and took a lot of worry away from this stressed bride! We hope to return to the magical Wilde Lodge for many years to come. Love from the Wilkses!

We truly couldn’t have dreamed of a better venue!
The venue was gorgeous, set in such beautiful countryside with a wild swimming river that was perfect for our day after hangovers. We truly couldn’t have dreamed of a better venue or experience, if you’re thinking of booking Wilde Lodge I would urge you to do it, you will not regret it! From our first call, we could tell the team knew exactly what they were doing and they went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect.

Wedding venue of dreams
The whole team at Wilde Lodge were outstanding from the moment we first made contact to arrange a viewing, to the end of our wedding stay. Nothing was too much trouble for our wedding coordinator, Hannah, who we had regular communication with from 12 months before the big day. The venue itself is gorgeous, a luxury big country house, with beautiful dining room perfect for hair & make up. The option of Bell Tents for guests, garden games, wild walks, horses, open barns & the safari tent!

Rural Mid Wales/Shropshire border perfection
I grew up in the area, and it was a pleasure to be able to host our friends from all over the country and the world to my home stomping grounds. Wilde Lodge exceeded every expectation, from helpful hints and tips in our planning to no request being too much all weekend. We had so many comments from our guests commending the team at Wilde Lodge. Phoebe our wedding co-ordinator and Jules bar manager need special mentions. The food from CSONS was exceptional and our aim of filling our guests up was truly met, one guest had to remove their trousers on the journey home from being so full! The beds in the lodge were super comfortable the tents lovely and hot water bottles provided. The beautiful foals in the fields and rolling marches countryside was the perfect backdrop. I wish we could do it all over again. There are so many lovely areas to make use of, the Safari tent, long barn, open barn, kitchen garden, front garden. I would recommend this venue to anybody.

The most perfect of venues
We've been trying to find the words to describe, or review, Wilde lodge. It's blooming hard. From the majestic setting and glamping on site. To the wonderful and supportive staff. Finally the simply unimaginably gorgeous food from Csons Everything. There's only one word really, perfect. You made the wedding more than welcome could have ever imagined We cannot thank the team at Wilde lodge enough for all they did before, during and after our wedding, the genuine love, passion and commitment they have shines through. You genuinely feel part of the Wilde Lodge family and they calmly steer you through what could be a stressful time with ease. From our first meeting with Jemma, then all the help and support from Hannah and Jess it has been an incredible time. Offering ideas, contacts, solutions and enthusiasm throughout. Jess - you are incredible, thank you for all the help before and during and after....and for keeping Chris calm/running away on the big day! If you have the chance to book for the weekend, don't hesitate, do it! You will not regret this, it makes the weekend more magical and special, it gives you the time to build up to the day, and relax and laugh about all that's just happened the next day. Csons - oh my.....there are no words, no words to describe their food. Don't have any hesitation - the food is sensational, we lost count of all the glowing comments about the food, even from fussy guests (we had 110 guests and believe me we lost count of allergies people had - Csons were able to work round all of these!!). Trust the whole team at Wilde lodge, they are simply incredible. Thank you for making this the most incredible, special and beautiful weekend of our lives. We could not imagine being elsewhere for our wedding, and feel privileged to have been able to be married there. We will definitely return for a weekend in the future. Lots of Love, Helen and Chris

The best day of our lives
Bottom line up front: our wedding day was the best day of our lives. Thank you to Wilde Lodge and the team, especially Phoebe our wedding Coordinator - we couldn’t have done it without you! If we had a pound for every time a comment was made about how ‘beautiful’ the place is or questioned on ‘how did you find this place?’ we would be rich and that’s saying something with less than 50 guests! When you decide on Wilde Lodge you will be guided throughout. Not a wedding planner but for us an invaluable hand rail. Once all is set, the Wilde Lodge team will facilitate your vision so that the day is as stress and fuss free as possible. Our wedding ceremony and wedding breakfast took place in the long barn which is a magical setting. It did not take much imagination or decoration to put our own vision in place - It’s trite, but less truly is more with this place. Wilde Lodge with its different areas (front gardens, long barn, open barn, safari tent, games field and general beautiful surroundings) keep the day fresh and guests entertained; an underrated aspect when we chose Wilde Lodge but on the day became evident. It is also wonderful to stay in the main house before the big day. It allows you to settle in, get the last bits of preparation completed and facilitates a memorable evening with the wedding party. We must also mention that CSONS, the onsite caterers produced incredibly delicious food enjoyed by all. Wilde Lodge will always hold a special place for us. Thank you!

Describe the best wedding that happened at Wilde Lodge?

Although we love all our weddings, one of the best was with a lovely couple who started with an intimate dinner on the day they arrived, got up and went for a walk and a swim with their loved ones, truly making the most of the countryside. The morning after their big party and plenty of dancing, the guests woke up, had a game of croquet in their pyjamas and dinned on a big BBQ lunch! Seeing the bride, groom and their guests being able to relax and make the most of the venue is what we love most.

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

One of our most recent couples had a love for literature and had a book swap set up in our long barn where guests were encouraged to bring a personal favourite read to swap and share with other guests. It was lovely to see guests get involved in the gesture and take a moment to share the interests of the Bride and Groom.

Describe Wilde Lodge in 5 adjectives

Unique, Magical, Relaxed, Wholesome, Intimate

Where’s the best photo spot at Wilde Lodge?

There are so many glorious spots, but we have seen some amazing photos taken down by the river at golden hour with the beautiful welsh hills as the backdrop. But we are also very lucky to have our rustic barns which make a great feature in our photos too!

What’s your favourite canapé?

It's hard to choose a favourite canape from our recommended caterer CSONS, but would definitely have to say the five spice duck pancake with peanuts, sesame, pickled cucumber and plum is up there. From amazing barbequed meats, to vegetarian and vegan dishes CSONS manage to bring together flavours to create an unforgettable dining experience.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

It would have to be toasted marshmallows on our fire pits outside the barns. It is a perfect midnight snack to keep you toasty next to the fires to give your feet a break from dancing all night long!

What is Wilde Lodge most unique feature?

Our most unique feature would have to be the beautiful grounds that we are set on. On 15 acres of land which is all available for you to use throughout your whole stay for games, family walks, photos and everything in-between, this would have to be our most unique feature. They also allow us to hold bell tents for up to 100 guests to stay on site, lit up beautifully with fairy lights.

What part of your business are you most proud of?

The way my husband and I have built this business from the ground up! When we first took over the Lodge it required a total renovation that we did ourselves, which we have constantly been building upon since then. To be able to watch couples and guests arrive and enjoy the site that we have given our time and hearts to is the best part about what we do!
