  5 stars!! The Orangery Suite is an absolutely incredible venue! We decided to get married there and we were not disappointed! Graham and team were amazing from start to finish. Graham gave continuous advice and support and was always there when needed. Graham and team allowed us to decorate the venue exactly how we wanted it and make it our own which we felt was such a lovely thing for us to be able to do. The grounds themselves are absolutely stunning, I recommend you go and see for yourselves! The games scattered around the venue were fantastic and a lot of our guests made use of these – laughing whilst doing so. No one was bored as there is so much fun to be had, the grounds are massive too so lots of space. Graham kindly played the music for us for the Ceremony so we didn't have to ask one of our guests to do so and he provided a bar for our guests to purchase their drinks from. The whole day included full use of the venue and it's grounds, a staffed/licensed bar and our own caterers (all optional). It was so affordable, in fact, we couldn't believe how reasonable it was! I searched for all sorts of venues when we got engaged and The Orangery Suite is by far the best venue, the best location, the best price and the best fun! Our wedding was relaxed which is what we wanted, the birds sang from start to finish which made it all the more special for us. When we booked The Orangery Suite we were planning to get married inside The Orangery Suite venue which is stunning, however shortly before our big day, Graham advised us that they are now licensed for outdoor ceremonies which we grabbed with both hands! The Marquee in the centre of the grounds is beautiful and perfect for events, it is spacious and bright, it made for an amazing day and our photos are amazing as a result. The whole day was absolutely perfect for us – even the rain held off at the right moments! We highly recommend The Orangery Suite for any event, you can't go wrong! Thank you to Graham and team at The Orangery Suite for everything, you guys are incredible and we couldn't be happier!

  We chose the orangery for the amazing outside space for May 2019. Graham was very helpful and organised, nothing was any trouble. All the guests had a great time playing the games and the photos were amazing. We would highly recommend for your wedding, especially outside.

  2 weeks ago on a beautiful sunny sunshine day, Simon and I got married at The Orangery Suite. We wished for a simple ceremony and afterwards, an informal afternoon tea party with our families and friends. The Orangery was just the perfect setting.
  Graham was friendly and approachable regardless of how many times I phoned him with different queries and requests. He manages everything without fuss. The venue is beautifully kept and we were able to decorate the marquee and tables as we wished. Garden games were such a bonus to keep the children and adults amused! Sorrells did our catering and it was obvious that Graham and Sorrells worked well together. We would recommend them hugely. Thank you both for a lovely day!

  Still on a high from our big day on Saturday; we could not have had a better day. Graham and all the staff were so attentive and always on hand throughout the day and beforehand.
  Given the freedom of a blank canvas, we had so much fun getting creative to bring some personal decor and touches to this place, and were so pleased with how our homespun wedding turned out!
  Our guests couldn't have payed any more compliments to this beautiful venue, it really was perfect - the weather helped too, as the games went down a treat!
  Thanks again Graham, we'd do it all again in a heartbeat!

  I photographed a wedding here on Monday and it was so lovely. We had all different types of weather, sun, rain, dark grey clouds, and it looked beautiful at every stage. It's so picturesque and there are games on the ground to entertain everyone, from croquet, to chess, there are various seating areas for photographs, it's a beautiful little place. The reception was in a lovely marquee, and they did a barbecue for the wedding party. There's a little bar inside too. I highly recommend it

  We would just like to say a massive thank you to you and your team for everything you did to make our day go smoothly. Everything was perfect and you facilitated our needs perfectly. We really appreciated the time you spent with us before the day and your unobtrusive presence throughout the day. Everybody loved the venue, and its the perfect place for what we needed.

  Kate and I just wanted to say a massive thank you for yesterday. It was the most perfect day and we are so pleased we picked The Orangery Suite for our wedding. Thank you!

  My daughter got married here August bank holiday last year and it was amazing. The staff were lovely, really friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble and the guests said it was not only a wedding but a day out for all too. A chance of fun for all. A real family and friends day.

  We got married here just over 2 weeks ago. This was the first and only venue we viewed for our wedding....as soon as we set foot in the gardens we knew it was the perfect venue for the relaxed summer wedding that we wanted! We didn't want a hotel or country house as we didn't like how the day was too 'structured' and we wanted something a bit different. We wanted to be able to choose how our day went and change the order of things as we pleased. The Orangery Suite lets you decorate things exactly as you want them and you have the whole venue to put your own stamp on. The huge range of garden games were an added bonus as free entertainment for our wedding guests and they were really popular on the day. Unfortunately, despite it being July, it was drizzly on and off throughout the day but it definitely didn't ruin anything and Graham was really helpful with changing things around for us, plus it still stayed dry at the times we needed it to and we got all our outside pics. I wish we could have our wedding all over again just to go back to the Orangery Suite, it really is stunning with so many great backdrops for photos. Thanks so much Graham! This is the perfect hidden gem for weddings and we will try to find any excuse to have another party here at some point.

  We chose The Orangery Suite in late May for the ceremony and daytime reception for our wedding because we wanted a fun wedding where our guests could relax and keep themselves entertained too. Needless to say, The Orangery Suite delivered! The grounds are beautiful and offered ample room for 60-70 guests to explore and discover various games dotted around. The ceremony room and the gazebo were great too, but the outdoor areas were the real stars of the show. Even for such a long reception (we had the venue booked for 7 hours), I was never worried that the guests would get bored and heard only great feedback from them.

  I was blown away by the Orangery Suite when I first saw it and I'm so glad Matt and I chose it for our wedding venue. The Orangery and the grounds are absolutely stunning and the marquee is lovely. The children at the wedding were able to just run free and enjoy the activities in the garden whilst the adults could relax and also enjoy what the venue had to offer. The crazy golf, croquet and volleyball proved very popular!
  
  Thank you Graham for all of your help. A truly wonderful venue!

  It couldn't have been a more perfect day! Our guests commented on the beautiful gardens and the children loved the games. I can't wait to see our professional photos as there were so many gorgeous areas around the garden. For us, we didn't want a registry office as our local wasn't as special as we imagined, and the over priced hotels limited us greatly. The Orangery Suite was a perfect middle ground and amazingly priced.
  
  Graham was incredibly helpful and nothing was too much to ask.

  Wish I could give more stars! This place is beyond amazing! We had our wedding here this Saturday, and it was perfect. All the guests were stunned with the grounds, and loved every minute. The kids were fully entertained by the garden games (which meant a lot as nearly half of our guests were kids!) . Graham was so helpful leading up to and on the day of the wedding and it meant a lot that he replied to any of my questions within a short period of time through email or phone which was very much appreciated. I loved the fact I could decorate myself. It's a day I will never forget. The Orangery Suite is a hidden gem. And I really couldn't recommend it enough!
