Dear Katie, Jason and the rest of the team,
Myself and Craig would like to thank you all so much for making our wedding on the 14/02/18 so special. You made the whole process so easy and really did everything you could to ensure the smooth running of the day, especially in the months leading up to the wedding with changes and requests. Everything, from how beautiful the manor looked, accommodation of artists such as the harpist and band,the canapes, to the absolutely delicious afternoon tea that you prepared combined to create an atmosphere that was truly spectacular and a day that we will never forget. Everyone even commented on how good the wine was! Everyone that stayed at the manor was thrilled with the rooms and if I had a pound for every guest that asked how we found such a stunning venue we could probably get married again! Thank you so much and I hope you're all well. We will definitely be using our complimentary passes for life so we shall both be visiting soon.
Matt & Craig P.S Anyone who may be looking for suppliers at Old Down Manor, we used a few from the preferred list and can't recommend them enough: Ian Towers - Pianist Tin Can Floral - Florist Georgia Coffin - Manors photographer who we were lucky enough to have with us on the day in addition to Julian Fulton (Julian is not on suppliers list)

Lucy and all of her colleagues were continuously on hand and handled the day seamlessly, preempting anything that could've happened. All staff were polite, helpful and very accommodating. We could not have suggested any improvements on their level of service on our special day. Our guests were all impressed too, and lots of them had never been to Old Down but are now wanting to return! Another brilliant part if our day was being able to let the children play in the country park and see the animals there too -all included in the wedding price. Very happy guests and extraordinarily ecstatic couple!
