Venue Reviews
The Mulberry Suite, Cedar Suite, Marquee and Grounds are just “picture perfect” and we got lots of positive compliments about the venue. There is plenty of on-site accommodation that guests could stay, which made our wedding even more special by being able to have breakfast with our guests the next morning.
From planning the big day to the wedding day itself all the staff involved are highly professional, friendly and accommodating. It made the planning and the day stress-free and everything we could hope it to be – A special mention to Chloe, Claire and Jo who were amazing and helped our day become exactly what we wanted.
We could not recommend Mulberry House enough to any future couples – It really is the most perfect venue we only wish we could come back and re-live our wedding day again! Thank you again to ALL the staff at Mulberry House

The stunning and picturesque grounds are beautiful and truly showcased an amazing wedding venue.
Every member of staff were so friendly, kind and accommodated our needs. This, in turn, made everyone feel relaxed and happy on our wedding day and made it a more memorable experience. We would both like to say a huge thank you to the Mulberry House Dream Team of Georgia and Chloe, the event organisers, Claire and Jo, who ensured that the whole day ran smoothly with an exceptional eye for detail and great customer service as they looked after both us and our wedding guests. We both did not want the day to end as it was so perfect. Also a special thank you needs to go to the Mulberry House Suppliers - TJ Florist, Lisa at Cake Cuisine, Jo at J. Hughes Wedding Stationery and Gail at Bridal Hair & Makeup. A big thank you also to Mark at Willow and Lace Photography. Their dedicated and professional efforts were greatly appreciated in showcasing our wedding day and making a truly magical and perfect day.
Everyone was impressed with the wedding breakfast. The food was delicious and made with quality ingredients.
The honeymoon suite was comfortable and provided everything and we appreciated the bottle of prosecco on ice and the freshly cut wedding cake provided in our room. The breakfast the following morning was very enjoyable.
We both cannot recommend Mulberry House enough. Excellent venue, exceptional service and great people. It felt like one big family who welcomed us wholeheartedly. Thank you for making our day so special and perfect and we will definitely be visiting again soon for an Afternoon Tea. Steve & Sharon

As a lesbian couple we had struggled elsewhere to find a venue to accommodate 2 brides - but Mulberry had the facilities to make us both feel special and have our own spaces to get ready that weren't too gendered or typical 'bride' and 'groom' spaces. We felt completely accepted and welcomed by everyone at Mulberry House.
I could go on and on but in short if I could rate more than 5 stars I would - the venue is absolutely gorgeous and the service is top quality. It felt like one big family who welcomed us with open arms. Thank you for making our day perfect!

The whole process was made so easy with the support from Claire, Jo, Natalie and Chloe, and the lovely ladies on reception were always so helpful if we called. We also had a wedding taster evening to sample the dishes which were all fantastic. Half of the wedding party stayed the evening before and thanks to Faz for looking after everyone with taxis and drinks, he is an outstanding asset to your team. Now onto the wedding day itself .just perfect. Claire was amazing setting the ceremony room up and making the Mulberry Suite look wonderful for the wedding breakfast, we couldn’t have wished for anything more! The food was so good! So many positive reactions from our guests! Especially the soup! Most said it was the best wedding meal they had eaten. The waiting staff and bar staff all fabulous! Couldn’t do enough for us throughout the day! Sammy and her team really are amazing and Faz again was fantastic. The evening . Again amazing! With the team accommodating everything we had ordered. Evening Buffett was great and served hot which was perfect. We had so many positive comments from our guests about service, venue and grounds. The whole venue was beautiful . Perfect day, perfect setting, perfect staff, truly incredible 1000%

Staff were extremely helpful all through the day and everything ran smoothly!
The groomsmen and I had a room to get ready in away from the bride and the early check was great for some of our guests who had travelled quite the distance! The venue is dog friendly and our Pomeranian was welcomed and spoilt on her stay!
The grounds were stunning, and the food was INSANE! So many compliments from our day and evening guests! We had several dietary requirements through out the day, which was no bother to the MH team.
Fantastic day! Thank you 🤩

We got married on 22/09/2024, and what a day! From the minute we viewed the venue at one of Mulberry's amazing wedding shows we knew IT WAS THE ONE!
The whole proceeds of wedding planning was made so easy with the support from Claire, Jo, Natalie and Chloe.
All emails were answered pretty much straight away and the lovely ladies on reception were always so helpful if we called up!
Nothing was too difficult for the team. A fussy eater bride no problem. There were so many options to choose from and Nick, the head chef couldn’t be more accommodating! So thank you.
The wedding taster evening was fantastic! Live entertainment and the chance to sample the dishes you can’t quite decide between!
The wedding day itself . The most perfect blur!
The girls arrived at 8am, make up and hair team ready to go! We had so much space! A getting ready room and breakfast room! Breakfast rolls and mini hasbrowns washed down by pink fizz! The boys had their own space too to get ready away from the girls! Perfect!
Claire and Jo made every part of my vision come true! From setting the setting the ceremony room up with the little details to making the wedding dinner room beautiful! Couldn’t have wished for anything more!
The food was ON POINT! So many positive reactions from our guests! Especially the brownie!
The waiting staff and bar staff all fabulous! Couldn’t do enough for us throughout the day! Sammy and her team really are amazing! Harley too. He’s served us many times at various trips at Mulberry and it was a pleasure to have him on our wedding day! He was great!
The evening . Again amazing! Beautiful set up. Our centre pieces were moved from one room to another. No grief for the staff at all! They always saved us one of everything (even if we didn’t get round to trying it all) 🙈
The whole venue was pristine! Beautifully clean. Toilets and rooms spotless! Sammy, Linda and all the ladies you’re a real token! The grounds were also kept beautifully! And the black swans made an appearance which was extra special!
Thousands of photo opportunities in the beautiful grounds and so many different options for your special day!
Overall the day went super fast but it really was the perfect blur!
Thank you so much for everything Mulberry House! 💗🤍

My partner and I also stayed overnight at the venue in a dog-friendly room. We did have to pay extra compared to their standard rooms, but it was worth it. The room was modern, clean and had plenty of space. The breakfast in the morning was delicious and check out is at 10:30.
Overall, I would highly recommend this venue to stay and for a wedding.

The food was of course amazing and all of our guests were well catered for. We had some guests with special requirements, and the team ensured they were well looked after. The feedback from our guests regarding the food was second to none. The wedding breakfast went off without a hitch and the food was served timely and was of course very tasty. We all enjoyed the tequila rose cheesecake (with the additional shot of course). Our evening guests loved the food from the food shack which added a special touch to the day.
Of course we cannot forget to mention how stunning the venue is. The house/ rooms are amazing with all the small details thought of. The grounds are well kept and our guests were able to roam at their leisure to admire its beauty. Not only do we thank the front of house team - but also the caterers, gardeners, bar staff, housekeepers and reception team - you guys are all amazing!
What a fantastic team - we will be sure to come back to visit!
