What an epic day! We were married here Sunday 10th of March - hottest day of the year so far but the heat was quickly forgotten once the fun started. From the day we arrived to look at the venue until I hauled my dress into the limo afterwards, it’s has been nothing but the best service, food, views, everything! There is nothing we can find fault in. All of our guests have raved about everything for days on end and no doubt will continue to. David, Marika, Stefan, Renata and the rest of the team - there is no possible way to thank you for everything you have done for us! You took out stressed away and made it the best day of our lives! We had an absolute ball and hope you did too! (The guests were a little loose 😉) if I had to do it all again, I’d change nothing at all but the weather. The only downfall is, it’s all done now and who knows when we will see you all again?!Once again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We loved every minute and every staff member involved.Mr & Mrs Silk

We had our Wedding on the 26th of August 2023. We could not be more happier with Dave and the team at the Windmill Reception. They bent over backwards for us and we could not have asked for any more. The night was great the food was sensational and the atmosphere was fantastic. Highly recommend for anyone planning a wedding.

I could not recommend this venue more! If you’re looking for a venue that will put you at ease through the planning process and beyond impress your guests, this is the place to book. When we did a venue walk through, we fell in love instantly.We and our guests were beyond impressed with the service and the quality of food, there was not one meal that did not exceed expectations, the pork especially was incredible and something out of a fine dinning restaurant. The wait staff were so nice and attentive to everything. We never once asked for top ups as our drinks were re-filled before anyone could notice they were low which is a testament to how attentive and generous the venue is.Our guests were raving about the service and the venue as a whole, they loved the pristine gardens especially.
