Would like to say a huge thank you to nikki and all the team on The Moat house, we had our wedding there yesterday and i cannot fault anything, thank you so much for making our day perfect x

User

What a place!

We booked our wedding 9 months ago and what a ride it’s been.

After a few false starts it went off without a problem, it was perfect.

We have eaten in the bar over these past months several times and each time it was beautiful food! Very generous portions and well presented. I would say that children’s plates would be a good idea, but that would be my only criticism.

The accommodation for all our rooms was amazing, very clean and tidy, the space in the suite where I got ready the morning of my wedding was beautiful and plenty of room to get 4 adult women ready with photographers and family visiting.

They say itself was beautifully managed by Nikki and the team I had nothing to worry about and everything we had discussed in the months leading up to the day was executed without issue.

The rooms were dressed to perfection by Design Elegance and their communication and professionalism was second to none.

I would recommend to anyone, whether it’s getting married, pub lunch or eating in the restaurant or even just a nights stay.

One thing we did have to feedback would be that even though the restaurant had a beautiful vegan menu and the food was gorgeous, it’s the little things such as no vegan butter that let it down but we appreciate how much you did for our vegan friends.



Thank you Moat House we loved our day and wouldn’t change a thing.

We had our wedding at The Moat House 15 Sep 18, and it was amazing. Nikki (our wedding planner) and all of the staff were brilliant. We also ate at the restaurant the following day and the food was superb. Definitely recommend.

We got married at The Moat House on the 3rd March 2018 and the staff were amazing!! Nothing was too much trouble for them. I had a meal with my family the evening before my wedding and the chef did a slate of several chocolates wishing me luck from the Lewis Partnership group, which I thought was a lovely touch. The venue is beautiful and has some lovely photograph opportunities. Thank you for helping me through the wedding planning process from start to finish. You made our day truly amazing. Many thanks Alice & Phil Baker.

We got married at The Moat House on 20th March 2015 and had the most amazing day. Ever since then we have gone back every year on our anniversary for our anniversary meal and couldn’t have had a better meal. To top it off the staff in the restaurant have remembered us each year which means so much. Thank you all for making our anniversaries so special.

We attended our niece's wedding here yesterday. Stunning venue. Beautiful wedding from start to finish. The staff are all very friendly. The staff who served the meals and transformed the room for the evening were like a well oiled machine. We stopped overnight, and the room was beautiful too, with a king size bed, air conditioning, and a large bathroom. Delicious food both at the reception, and breakfast this morning. Thank you for making our Nic and Joe's wedding so amazing.

Stopped with work a few months ago and decided then that when chance arrived would come back with the better half �

Returning from short break in London so booked a stop over for us both . Great location, fab selection of ales in the bar, great food and breakfast and helpful staff.

My wife found a mapped out walk in the room booklet which we followed mid-afternoon and took us through the countryside and along the canal which passed a good hour & half for those of you that are interested.

User

Great Gin night, perhaps when greeted at the door the evening could be explained a little better. We didn’t know there was a seating plan and it wasn’t explained about the tonics on the table so when we took a seat a the right table somebody had already used the tonics.

But the food was good and the host was brilliant

User

Friendly staff, excellent food, lovely choice of sandwiches and cakes. Beautiful surroundings. Well worth a second visit, or third, or fourth or maybe more.....
