Can’t thank all the team enough, especially the efforts Becca put in to make sure we had everything we needed along our delayed journey (COVID). She couldn’t have been more helpful & when the big day finally arrived, it was everything we hoped & more - such a magical day. Can’t recommend enough!

The venue is incredible, but it is made even better by the amazing staff. Anna and the Thicket Team made our dream wedding come true. Their attention to detail and personal care made the whole experience from the initial planning visit to the big day a joy. We can’t thank them enough for everything they did. Truly unforgettable

Following the wedding of my daughter, I can recommend without hesitation. The wedding was perfectly organised and all members of the team were very helpful. Thicket Priory is superb, the grounds, reception rooms and bedrooms are exceptional. So much thought has been put into this venue it made an unforgetable day.

Every newly engaged couple in the country should know about this venue! It was the first venue we happened upon and we fell in love immediately. The building, grounds, room decor, range of ceremony spaces and exclusivity make it unbeatable. In our opinion there is nothing of this calibre available in the UK.
We were able to celebrate our marriage here in October 2021 having postponed due to covid. We were able to postpone with ease and the staff at the venue were always fair and understanding at such an uncertain time.
Everything about the planning and the day was perfect. Anna helped us plan every detail (down to the time my mum was due to have her buttonhole fastened on the wedding morning) so that on the day everything was seamless. The whole of the staff were a dream and made sure we had nothing else to think about on the day other than our marriage. They were working so hard in the background to talk with all our vendors and keep the day running smoothly! All of our guests and vendors alike kept commenting on how helpful the venue staff were and how this made the whole event so much easier!
We could never put into words just what the team at Thicket have given to us. It’s the kind of wedding we never imagined possible and we’re forever indebted to Anna and the team. They really are the best at what they do and Thicket will forever have a piece of our hearts!

A magical venue hidden away in North Yorkshire. We felt very honoured to be able to experience such a special weekend with our friends and family at this beautiful venue.
Everyone commented on the stunning surroundings, delicious food and attention to detail provided by Anna and her team.
If you’re looking for a wedding where all of your guests can stay in one venue, complete privacy and the feeling of a home yet in complete luxury then Thicket is for you!
We would love to re live our experience do it over and over again.

Simply magical. No better way to describe this place. They made the entire Priory feel like it was ours for the weekend. And they were so amazing to work with. The staff was so friendly and hospitable and the management is so welcoming and personable but also professional. This place will always feel like a slice of home to us now. If you want the most amazing, impressive, and unforgettable experience, stop looking anywhere else and book this place now!

Such an amazing venue! We were looking for something spectacular for our wedding, a private venue with room for all our guests and Thicket Priory ticked all our boxes!
From the moment you drive down the long, magical driveway, you will fall in love with this place! The stunning, brand new interiors are jaw droppingly beautiful and the views in the grounds, including all the bridges around the lake make for some incredible wedding photos. Inside is light and airy, great for photos. Perhaps the best thing though is that the whole place is yours, you can make it your own home for a day, with no intrusions from other guests and decorate it in your own style!
The bridal suite and grooms suite (yes he gets one too!) are the most gorgeous, spacious rooms I’ve seen! The lighting was brill for makeup and photos!
The team at the venue were so helpful throughout our Covid- delayed wedding, from start to finish, they were friendly, engaged, enthusiastic and nothing was too much trouble. I couldn’t thank them enough for bringing our perfect day to life, after waiting so long!
Such a super venue and lovely, down to earth team who really care!

We attended a fantastic wedding in this historic venue. If you are lucky enough to be invited or host a wedding at Thicket Priory, the grounds are incredible. The current owners have turned this once 17th Century mansion house into an exclusive wedding venue, with incredible taste. Having its own chapel, lake, and expansive grounds with bridges across the lakes, it is a fabulous place to stay. There is a very large ballroom and numerous bedrooms each with their own quirks, such as doors from a stongroom, an observation room with its own telescope and even a secret door and its own corridor. It is a place that fills you with curiosity and is an awesome venue.
All the staff, that hosted were simply amazing, with a few facts here and there, happy to help and all round 5 star service!
I would love to attend a function here again, highly recommended.
