Throughout our stay, from start to finish. The staff worked so hard. Always calm, well organised, with someone always on hand if needed. Staff constantly and discreetly clearing glasses, plates and guest debris, the rooms always stayed looking plush. On the Big Day, on hand to keep everything running on time and on track. Food service from walking the room with canapés to serving Wedding breakfast and Friday morning breakfast was spot on and professional from a well managed young team.
We arrived on Wednesday afternoon, a very easy and smooth arrival process. Bar was open for the arrival of guests. Rooms were all well appointed with all your tea, coffee needs. We had a great barbecue style evening family buffet with all the guests. Plentiful and tasty. The sitting area near the bar had the bride and grooms playlist in the background for us to enjoy and chat over. The den was used by several guests through to the early hours! . We started Thursday morning with Sausage sandwiches which were great. Bar opened at 11:30 for a swift one before the main event. The room was perfect for the ceremony. Excellent canapés served with a drink whilst the photographs got underway. Wedding breakfast, served in the Chapel again superb quality. We then had a break with a cocktail hour. The mojitos were great. Our evening entertainment started at 7pm for first dance. We had a short break at 9pm to build burgers before we partied on till midnight. Friday morning, Full English breakfast. Again super quality.
“I booked a lunch party at Ellingham Hall for a very discerning group comprising of generous supporters of a local charity. We were 27 people and we enjoyed a Champagne reception before a delicious three course lunch. Wendy and her team could not do enough for us, our every request was granted. Dietary requirements were very efficiently and creatively dealt with and the result was a most enjoyable event at a price I was very satisfied with. I would definitely use Ellingham Hall again for a function like this.”

Now Hugo and I are back from honeymoon, we just wanted to send a message to thank the team from the bottom of our hearts for the most amazing wedding weekend! We couldn’t have pictured a more perfect venue and all of the team were absolutely fantastic, from yourself with all of the help planning and keeping me calm on the day, David also keeping me calm and taking some amazing photos of me and my dad walking down the staircase, all the fantastic service both the night before and during the wedding day, the amazing food and how lovely all the rooms looked, everything was perfect! The hall looked so magical with all the Christmas decorations and fairy lights, it was honestly like my dream come true! It definitely feels weird now that it is over but we couldn’t have wished for a better team at the most perfect venue ever so thank you so much!
Once again thank you for the perfect wedding day!

We had our wedding in October 2024. From start to finish across the entire two days, the staff were amazing and nothing was too much trouble. A special thanks to Wendy for checking in on Anne-Marie a lot on the morning of the wedding and everything she done in the lead up to the wedding – it was greatly appreciated. Hannah was also a star across the two days – they make a great double act to ensure your days go as smoothly as possible.
On the morning of the wedding, the weather was grim with rain and hailstones but as if by magic, as soon as the ceremony started, the clouds parted and we were greeted with sun for the rest of the day. This allowed us to get all of our photos outside with the beautiful scenery as this was a massive selling point for us. To top off the day, we were lucky enough to be treated to an amazing show by the Northern Lights!
All of our guests have said that they have an amazing time and it was the best wedding they had been to. All of the staff were amazing and we couldn’t thank you enough for making our wedding as perfect as it was!

“The venue exceeded our expectations. Not only did it offer uniqueness, but exclusivity was a key factor in booking. The main Hall offered lots of space for us to work and we found the delegate rates very competitive. The venue comes highly recommended. “
Lisa Davidson, HR Director – Connect Health
“The hall catered for everything we needed, from the luxury entrance rooms, to the grounds outside, which we used to talk with clients in more detail afterwards. It was exactly what we wanted to allow us to host a presentation of this size. Guests were welcomed with a selection of drinks and canapés in the entrance hall and then again on departure. The seminar itself took place in the Chapel, while the dining room and drawing room provided the perfect spaces clients to relax.
Michael Sage, Director, Sage Wealth Management
“We have hosted a number of corporate events and the staff have always been superb in supporting us. Our guests are always delighted when they walk through the doors and get to spend a day in the beautiful surroundings. “
