Well what can I say Hensol Castle ... just Wow (5* is most definitely not enough)
Our wedding here on the 9th September was out of this world. From the time we booked the venue in 2014, we dealt with Matthew Bowen who was incredibly professional. Laura Thomas took over as co-ordinator not long before the wedding, I was apprehensive that someone new had taken over the wedding with not too long to go before the big day , but no email (from me) was too much for her to deal with and she was so so helpful, I can't thank her enough for being at the end of any email helping me to relax & answering any worries I had!
On the day of the wedding , Dewi was in charge, we can't thank him enough for the incredible way he managed our day, we could not have asked for the wedding to go any smoother. The hospitality & professionalism he showed was out of this world & he is a real credit to Hensol Castle & The Vale Resort! I would recommend Hensol castle to anyone who would listen.

I got married at Hensol Castle on Friday. I can not thank Laura Smith enough! She was the perfect wedding co-ordinater. She was so chilled out and down to earth but made sure everything was as it should be, went out of her way to get the job done and made it a very smooth ride up to the wedding! Thank you so much Laura!
Dewi took over on the wedding day down the castle! He was amazing! Very friendly and also went out of his way. (At one point on my wedding day I felt very unwell, there was no food down the castle other than the food being cooked, he returned with a mars bar from his own lunch box) little things go a long way! I had the most perfect day thanks to these 2! The bar staff and waiters were also very helpful and friendly not to mention the food was out of this world! Thank you!

My husband and I got married at the beautiful Hensol Castle on July 15th and we can not describe how perfect our experience of dealing with the venue was from start to finish. Our wedding planner Matt was exceptional, no question was too big or too small and he was a pleasure to work with! On the day itself, Jodie was wonderful! She made sure everything ran smoothly and perfectly to time, whilst keeping our stress levels to a minimum which was exactly what we needed. Our guests commented on how tasty the wedding breakfast was and particularly how lush the hog roast was in the evening! Thank you so much to everyone at Hensol, it really is the most magical wedding venue which is made totally perfect thanks to the fabulous staff!

My daughter got married at the Castle on 23rd July 2015 and I cannot recommend this venue highly enough. The Castle and renovations are absolutely superb, the grounds and views are breath taking and the staff are the most helpful, courteous and attentive I have ever experienced, they truly want to make every aspect of your day a dream come true. I'd recommend not deciding on a venue until you have visited Hensol Castle. Special thank you to Laura Smith who was our contact at the Vale for the 14 months of the planning and Jodi who was duty manager on the day
