Had my wedding here a couple of weeks ago. Renee, our wedding planner from Ortons was amazing, nothing was an issue. We hired out the Villa, wow!! What an amazingly gorgeous building 😍.
On the big day, everything went to plan, the wait and bar staff were so friendly and efficient, all of our guests raced about the food and service.
Highly recommend holding a function here, and we will be hiring the Villa again in the future

We had the best of everything for our wedding ie the venue was warm and elegant, the wedding planner Renee was fantastic and very capable of running the event. The food looked great and tasted delicious. The communication throughout was very good, nothing was lacking. The Villa next door was the icing on the cake. Thanks Ange for the last minute sewing kit. Thoroughly recommended this venue for your celebration.

Had cocktails with fiends and had a variety of snacks and nibbles like cheesy potatoe wedges, chicken kebabs and crunchy cauliflower florets out in the garden. We watched the sun set in the lovely well maintained garden. We then went inside and had some wine sitting on comfy chairs in a warm cozy area with the soft glow of flames from a realistic looking fireplace.

We had our wedding at the Old Church recently and it was the most incredible venue. Such a stunning venue with lots of great areas for photos. The food was outstanding and they catered to dietary requirements very well.
James was amazing to deal with throughout the planning stage, and Susannah and the team on the day were relaxed, yet attentive, and really went the extra mile. Would 100% recommend.
