I’m a dj and I highly recommend not using this venue for your wedding day as it is not music friendly at all. Your better off taking a bluetooth speaker with no bass to use because the sound limiter is very bad. The venue looks good on pictures but is very terrible for a dj play at!! #Besmart

Read before booking! We got married in June, 2022 here. On our initial site visit, we were told the kids room would be changed into a room for the groom to get ready in. This WASNT done & my husband had nowhere to change (unacceptable!) as we had multiple changes. On the day of the wedding he asked Laura twice if he could use the annex to change, however she was unsure. Over an hour after asking, Steve then appeared & advised the annex was not allowed to be used, which by then it was 10:30am & 30 mins before our Hindu ceremony. This was completely unacceptable! there was NO wedding the day after ours, so there was no valid reason for them to have not allowed THE GROOM to stay & get dressed there! From the day we paid our deposit until after the wedding, we didn’t receive the support that was promised, nor did we receive timely responses via email & by telephone. I have several email chasers with no response, & I had called the office many times with no answer. Including to pay the security deposit which I was ensured someone would be there to answer the phones. They should be grateful they even received the security deposit, because I had to chase to pay it. We decided to book an extra nights stay everyone before the wedding as there was no wedding the day before ours. I was told to book 3 months prior to the wedding. In March I emailed asking for an update. They advised that it was still available, but that now I had to wait 6 weeks before the wedding to be able to book this. I called the office & got a call back with the correct info and booked it. But it caused unnecessary stress not getting the correct info. When we booked the accommodation, we were told that the sofa beds were being swapped out for double beds in a few weeks. However, I followed up a month or so later & they were still in the process of it. ONE WEEK before our wedding, I called with questions & asked about this, they said that they never swapped them out & that it wasn’t going to happen. They provided us with false info & false hope of our guests having a good stay. It was embarrassing & outright rude to not provide a basic service of communication. Had I not called we would have been none the wiser! The night before the wedding when some of our guests arrived late in the evening, they were not allowed into the main building. I had guests calling me asking what the situation was. Why were they not allowed into the building & allowed to wait inside to call me? Their staff had all the info for the rooms, so why was it an issue to give the info? Yet again, this was unprofessional & not acceptable to keep our guests waiting OUTSIDE. Our caterer also couldn’t get a hold of them for a site visit. A week before the wedding I had questions & wasn’t getting responses via email or via telephone. All our caterer received was a phone call a week before the wedding, because I had prompted Steve to give them a call back immediately. That’s completely unacceptable that no site visit was arranged. In short, we advised we would like compensation due to all the inconvenience caused & the stress which was not needed & just the simple fact that we were extremely unhappy with the service provided by Froyle. The response: firstly, holding our security deposit because we had used an external caterer, & the fee had not been paid. A week before the wedding the GM Andy said he was look into it & get back to me as we thought we had paid. We never heard back. It was his responsibility to get back to us & he didn’t. & then they tried to make excuses & after a lot of back & forth they admitted they did some wrong doings & decided to refunded us our security deposit & let go of the missed caterers fee as a “goodwill” gesture. However, having said that, they outright REFUSED to give us compensation (part of the venue fee) & instead offered us a 2nights stay at their spa in Brighton. That Voucher does not even compare to the amount we believed we were owed back considering how unhappy we were with them. If I could leave a longer review I would!!

My partner and I got married at Froyle Park a couple of months ago and it is an absolutely beautiful venue. We were blown away with it when we went to look around and all of our guests commented on how lovely the venue was. Unfortunately as with some of the other reviews we had a few issues with the management. - Poor communication in the run-up to the day despite being promised that this is something they take very seriously - Although we were told about the sound limiter we were also assured that it wouldn't affect our music but when it cuts out abruptly it somewhat ruins the atmosphere - The air-conditioning wasn't working in the ballroom and it became unbearably hot as we weren't allowed to open the doors due to noise restrictions. I feel that when you're paying many thousands of pounds for a venue you would hope there would be some back-up or that they would pay whatever necessary to get it repaired ASAP - It is in the contract that you have to arrange for your own rubbish and bottle disposal so it wasn't a surprise but again feels a bit ridiculous considering how expensive the venue is - The fire alarm was set off in the middle of the night by their security guard who then wasn't able to turn it off for over 15 minutes by which time of course all of our guests had evacuated. Although we made staff aware the next morning we have never received any form of acknowledgment or apology from the management. We raised a number of these issues with the venue when we received an email asking us to leave a review and were promised that our concerns would be passed on to the management team who would respond to us but this has never happened. In short it is a beautiful venue which is really let down by the management. Would I hire it again? No.

We had our wedding and reception at Froyle Park on 22/08/22 and although initially had some concerns based on the reviews (which we read after booking the venue and panicked!) we had definitely worried unneccessarily as we had a great day! We hope this review will reassure future couples who book the venue. The grounds are stunning, and our guests really enjoyed the natural beauty of the venue. There were so many different areas for photography and plenty of space for guests to relax in between our two ceremonies and reception. You have exclusive use of the venue and have so many different rooms and halls to set up in. The venue is dry hire, which meant we had the freedom to decorate it as we liked. We booked the entire accommodation for 2 nights and had exclusive use of this plus the venue which made it feel really personal and allowed my family (including from abroad) who were staying at the venue to relax and spend quality time together and visit each others apartments to hang out. The accommodation is arranged into self-catered apartments with all the amenities you need and everyone loved the space it offered. We were allowed to allocate apartments ourselves and kept families together and we had so much space to store things for the wedding the night before. The accommodation has towels and linen but no toiletries which wasn't an issue as this was communicated to me in advance and I arranged welcome packs for my guests with toiletries and food/snacks for the apartments to make my guests feel special. Some reviews mentioned poor cleanliness of the accommodation but we did not experience this at all and the rooms and venue were very clean! Some reviews mention rude staff however all the staff we personally encountered at Froyle Park were pleasant and respectful and supportive. Of course, Froyle Park, has some restrictions like a sound limiter (this cut the music off once during the reception but I was mentally prepared for it (it's made very clear in the contract and when booking so it should not come as a surprise to anyone on the day.) It didn't ruin the night and came back on very quickly so it was fine! Amplification is not allowed outside but again, this was clear in the contract and I quite liked it as it meant my guests got to enjoy live acoustic music from a violinist outside. My advise for future couples would be to: - Read your contract and clarify the venue's requirements and abide by them and you won't encounter any issues! Nothing will come as a surprise if you understand the rules/regulations of the venue. For example, the contract states that you have exclusive use of the venue from 12pm - this means that if you decide to hold your wedding earlier than 12, you may be interrupted by guests from the night before leaving/checking out and walking through the house. I was aware of this and therefore held my wedding at 12pm and also booked accommodation for my guests for the night before to avoid this. - Communicate with the venue in advance, they will contact you about a month before with a function sheet to discuss the itinerary of the day and requirements but I contacted them in advance and they were very supportive. - Hire wedding planners/on-the-day coordination, this is a must as it's a dry hire venue and will take the stress of the couple. - Hire the accomodation exclusively for the night before if possible as it makes things a lot easier in the morning & also creates a home away from home/destination wedding feel. - Hire DJ's/musicians that have worked at Froyle before to avoid any surprises with the sound requirements on the day. - Ask to see the apartments in advance so you can allocate the rooms appropriately according to your guests as some rooms have shared bathrooms etc so place families/couples in these rooms. Overall, the venue's beauty, the space and freedom it offers as a dry hire, and accommodation more than compensates for some of the restrictions e.g. sound limiter and the venue was perfect for our wedding and reception! Thank you to the team of Froyle Park, especially Andy.

Great wedding venue, staff and scenery - however the venue should provide some amenities for those staying over night eg shampoos and body wash. Also the sound system was disappointing, the music could barely be heard and would cut off if it surpassed a very low volume.

This historical building added value to the wedding I attended here on a perfect summer's day. The exquisite gardens, the grounds, the reception space, the dance floor (!), the entire setting covered bride and groom in glory.

We went to a wedding last weekend. Although it is a beautiful venue, and we had a fantastic time celebrating friends wedding. I found the manager very rude. We had to leave the outside area by 10.30 as there are neighbours. This was totally acceptable, however the manager spoke to all the guest very rudely, there was no need for it. I could see he wanted the party to be over, he kept sulking around the place, pushing his way past guest to get around. Absolutely no need for it. Very disappointed 😡

We had my daughters wedding here last week, the Venue views are absolutely stunning that on its own would deserve 5stars. The major issue we had was for the cost the service should have been better you would be lucky to find any staff on the day for issues such as having the outdoor chairs cleared away or parasols put up or lack of toilet rolls etc all small things that add up to be so annoying. Think carefully regarding any sort of noise as the main concern is in keeping the neighbors more happy than the guest at the venue. Thank god for our wedding planner as she chased up and got things done for us . We did have the rooms and they were fine .

An absolute pleasure to attend my cousin's wedding here. . . The venue is conveniently tucked away off the A31 from Farnham. The dining reception area used was spacious and bright, a good canvas to make the space your own for your event. The hall space easily accommodated approx 10 large round tables which could seat 10 people comfortably. If needed, I'm sure a further 3 tables could be added still leaving good walking space between tables. The wedding ceremony room (the first space upon entering through the main doors). For easy movement and leg room etc. It would be advisable that you keep numbers below capacity otherwise things are a little tight!! Between these two spaces is a well kept green garden space, also an elevated outdoor seating area which we enjoyed whilst waiting to be seated for the mai reception. The toilet facilities new décor style although space is limited especially the individual cubicles! Unfortunately, there was a blocked sink (1 of 3) which remained blocked for the duration of the event. As a guest for the day I was overall happy with the venue and its facilities. I don't know if it was value for money though (not that I paid), in comparison to similar places in different locations I've been told by the bride and groom that this was the most expensive option! I didn't see or use the overnight facilities so I cannot comment on this although, I will say that the wedding party had to check out by 10am which after a 'late night' is a little early in my humble opinion.

Do not book Froyle Park for your wedding! I got married here in August 2023 and we hired out the venue for 2 days. However, upon my wife's arrival at the wedding hotel, she had no access to a functioning bathroom - a cold shower, broken toilet and multiple explanations as to why this was the case. My wife washed her hair with a kettle on the day of our wedding. While staff did try to fix things, she still got a cold shower both mornings in different rooms. The plumbing system desperately needs updating so hopefully the new owners can finally take this on board. Cleaners for the rooms were also incredibly rude and mocked my wife as she had to lift luggage out in her heavy wedding outfit. This was despite the event manager having agreed to give us some more time to check out while I made my entrance. In the end, this meant we had to move luggage in front of guests and delay my wife's entrance. Some of the guests also had issues with cleaning and their rooms which were not flagged and fixed ahead of time such as taps hanging out of fixtures, dirty towels and more. Also, the wedding staff were quite clueless and lacked communication throughout the entire process from being unhelpful during the planning procedures all the way up to the special day - it was a complete nightmare! My wife's civil entrance was ruined as an employee told the violinist to begin the entrance before her and the bridesmaids were ready. This was despite my wife repeatedly telling them not to. The manager has insisted these points have been taken on board and training provided but still doesn't change that our wedding could have done without the hassle. On the reception night, the bar staff did not provide the drinks we requested when we spoke to them over the phone about what we were looking for - I raised this with the bar manager and he acted like he had no idea what I was talking about! We had many family members that do not drink and did not have the variety of soft drinks we needed. And when we spoke to the manager Andy about these issues, all we got was a brief apology and a hamper sent to our address. While this was appreciated, we paid £14,000 for our dream wedding at this venue and after all the distress it seems a cop out to not take proper responsibility and issue at least some money back in refund!

the staff are lovely. the rooms look amazing.. but its only skin deep. no soap or products in the rooms. its just the wrong side of rustic. that said the wedding I attended was lovely. like all weddings a hickup here or there but they tried hard to fix the issues. will stay here agin. just need to remember to pack more toiletries then I normally would for a hotel stay.

Beautiful park. Can see greenery all around from here. Heritage structure and magnificent edifice! Great for hosting and conducting weddings, big events, large food parties, etc. Staff is very kind, courteous and always smiling. Kids friendly place and family friendly place also.

We hosted our wedding reception at Froyle Park in April 2023. The venue is stunning and we had absolutely no issues on the day. The team were also fantastic in the lead up - very responsive and helpful with any queries we had with planning.

Love Froyle Park as a wedding & event venue! Pure magical place from the fountain entrance path, beautifully elegant all white ballroom with crystal chandeliers overlooking the perfect courtyard with a lovely view of the English countryside. The rooms are all grandiose but have a comfortable relaxed feel. The staff are so excited about their beautiful historical country house venue too.

We recently had our wedding at Froyle Park and have to say that the venue is absolutely stunning, with a whole county estate exclusive for our hire. We also got full access to all accommodation on site. The grounds offer so many opportunities to have your wedding day, from the use of the outside dome, to all the lovely room indoors and of course the amazing ballroom for an evening reception. The staff were also incredibly helpful throughout the process, very good communicators and answered all of our queries promptly. The only reasons I am giving this review 4 rather than 5 stars are because: • the venue has various limitations including: a sound limiter in the ballroom, not being able to use candles, no fireworks and other sound restrictions due to the residential nature around it • the night caretaker Dan is incredibly rude and upset many of our guests. He also didn’t let us continue our wedding party downstairs after 11.30 despite this being agreed with the venue. Overall, however, we want to say a big thank you for making our wedding magical with memories we will cherish forever. Rajiv and Carlota

Reading some of the poorer reviews, basically you need to understand that this place is like a wedding conveyor belt, one set of guests in and one out on most days. In general the staff are nice enough and most want to be helpful - but in the end if you want your special day to go the way you want, then you need to have someone organising everything on your behalf, whether it's a professional planner or friends/relatives. The building and grounds are very nice and the accommodation side is more or less like a high end Airbnb. Don't expect butler service. The layout is a bit maze-like but you can work that to your advantage. The wifi is very good.

My sons wedding on 10 December 23 Lots of health & safety issues. Rooms were dirty with stained unwashed beddings no hot water or heating we had a 4 month baby. To get to annex area it was dark flooded and slippery. Not suitable for anyone young or old. Staff unhelpful & rude. This is a old property which is not safe in some parts of the building Local council needs to investigate for health and safety requirements. Do Not Book for wedding you will be embarrassed by your guests complaints.

We stayed one night for a wedding and thought the place looked amazing on arrival, although from a guest perspective there were a few issues that left us feeling really disappointed. 1 The ‘apartment’ we were allocated had 3 bedrooms and a sitting room/ kitchen with a bed in it. Our ‘room’ was the sitting room, meaning that other people that we didn’t know would need to walk past our bed to get to the kitchen! The staff did close the interconnecting door after we requested it, however, the other guests could still get in as they had our room door code, which couldn’t be changed by the staff. 2 The state of the apartment was poor, stains on the collapsing sofa, mould in the bathroom as well as a general lack of maintenance gave a shoddy feel. For £150 per night I was expecting more. 3 The ‘breakfast’ was a packet croissant and some milk sachets to go with the tea bags in the kitchen. 4 The guest parking was wholly inadequate- a muddy track - not ideal when in your best wedding outfit!

Our ill-fated stay on December 10, 2023, to partake in my brother's wedding was an unparalleled exercise in frustration. The initial promise of convenient front parking transformed into an unpleasant encounter with discourteous attendants. These individuals, who were supposed to facilitate a smooth arrival, instead engaged in argumentative behavior with us and other family members when we asserted our right to the promised parking. Upon entering the main wedding venue, it became apparent that it was ill-equipped to handle the basic comfort of guests. The temperature inside the room resembled an icebox, with no heating in sight despite the inclement weather outside. Rain and wind prevailed, yet the venue seemed oblivious to the basic need for climate control during a winter event. A closer inspection of the venue revealed a dire need for a facelift. While it exuded an old-world charm, the peeling paint and lack of maintenance created an atmosphere of neglect. The charm wore thin as we navigated our way to the annex, where our allocated rooms awaited. To access these accommodations, we were compelled to venture outside and circumnavigate the building, an impractical and uncomfortable arrangement. This inconvenience was further exacerbated by the fact that we were assigned rooms in the annex, situated upstairs and outside. The absence of lights or directional signs left us grappling with a 5-month-old baby, her pram, and numerous bags in the dark. The narrow and slippery exterior staircase posed an added challenge as we struggled to carry our belongings upstairs. The lack of guidance to the rooms necessitated seeking out elusive staff members, no easy feat in itself. Upon reaching our accommodations, the litany of grievances continued. There was no hot water for showers, forcing all guests to endure cold showers. The heating system proved non-functional, and the hot water tap in the kitchen was seized, subjecting us to the unpleasant task of cleaning our baby's bottles in ice-cold water. The apartments themselves were not only cold but also dusty, with stained furniture contributing to an overall sense of neglect. Adding an odd twist to our already disheartening experience, one of the rooms shared a wall with a communal kitchen. This layout left us with zero privacy, as fellow guests needed access to the shared space. Our only recourse was to leave the apartment door ajar, compromising any semblance of personal space. Despite the venue boasting a capacity for 300 guests, the reality fell far short of expectations. With just under 200 attendees, the space felt cramped and restricted, making it challenging to move around the tables or access the dance floor and bar. To exacerbate matters, a sound limiter imposed periodic music interruptions, leaving us in awkward silence for 5 to 10 minutes before the music begrudgingly restarted. Summing up this regrettable affair, the services and facilities provided were a far cry from what my brother and sister-in-law had paid for. The staff's demeanor was consistently rude and unhelpful, perpetuating an atmosphere of disappointment throughout the celebration. From parking disputes to icy showers, the litany of grievances marred what should have been a joyous occasion, leaving an indelible mark on our memories for all the wrong reasons.

The Stunning location:Froyle Park is situated in the heart of the Hampshire countryside,surrounding by rolling hills and lush greenery. The venue is also close to a number of popular tourist attractions,such as Jane Austen’s and the Farnham Maltings. Our client Saawan and Deepika’s wedding reception is stunning 😍

We got married at the beginning of September and chose Froyle Park as our wedding venue as it’s a beautiful location and it can comfortably hold larger sized weddings. From the initial enquiries right up to the day itself we found the team to be helpful, patient and responsive to our (many!) emails, with clear explanations about what was required from us at each stage. The venue itself was perfect for an outdoor ceremony (though it could just as easily have been held indoors). We also appreciated its exclusive nature, and the different rooms that allowed for our guests to spread out (there was even a children’s playroom). Also as a dry hire venue it allowed us to create a wedding that was unique to us, but they also provided some great vendor suggestions which helped us with our planning. The day itself ran smoothly and the on-site overnight accommodation was really comfortable. All our guests loved the venue and enjoyed the grounds. The only hiccups during the day were: 1) the sound limiter tripped out the music once at the start of the evening party, but this was not an issue throughout the rest of the night as our DJ was able to make things work, and so we still had an amazing party without feeling the musical quality was compromised. Tip: once the dance floor was underway we pointed the speakers more directly towards the centre of the ballroom where the dance floor was situated to maximise their effectiveness. 2) as there was a kitchen for the catering, we assumed drinking water was easily accessible even if not going with their in-house caterer/drinks supplier during the day. However, as a dry hire venue this was not the case, and it resulted in the coordination team going to buy bottled water for the guests. Tip: make sure you have it arranged separately! Having read through other reviews, I can see that it hasn’t been smooth sailing for everyone and it is true that there are a number of restrictions in place in terms of what you can and can’t do. But we felt that these were pretty much made clear from the outset when reading the contract through (e.g. we were aware of the sound limiter and were able to discuss this with the DJ from the start, so although it kicked in at the start of the music we had a DJ who was aware and comfortable with using this type of setup and could still deliver an awesome night). Overall we had a wonderful day holding our wedding at Froyle Park and from our experience as long as you read the contract properly to understand the way things run you shouldn’t really have any unpleasant surprises on the day. We would fully recommend it as a venue!

Went there for a wedding reception. Beautiful place, delicious food and canapes, however, I did have a problem with the outdoor chairs. There was bird fecal matter on the chairs. Perhaps more outdoor housekeeping is needed?

Apart from the building being old and a little creeking, this is a very good establishment. Lots of spaces for events, indoor, outdoor. Organisers are very good. There's accommodation - which has to be negotiated with the host. Few parking spaces. We had a wedding here and it was fantastic

Was here for a wedding and honestly it is such a beautiful place to have as a wedding venue. Luckily for us it was scorching so had the ceremony outside. And then the food after was to die for

Fantastic wedding venue, pleasant rooms, clean, spacious, lovely well looked after gardens. Lots of freedom in choice with wedding selections. Nice water features and decor throughout.

Venue is beautiful and the wedding went well but lots of issues such as air con was not working and management could not be found to help sort out issues. Also watch out as many people who were not staying could not get taxis and those that did charged extortionate rates. Uber needs to start working to put these private hire companies out of business by breaking the monopoly.

DO NOT BOOK A WEDDING HERE IF YOU ENJOY LIVE MUSIC. Limiter set at 92 DB. This is outrageously low and near impossible for a live band. If you want light cocktail jazz, fill your boots. If you want a party band that can play at a normal (that’s not loud) volume, go elsewhere. Honestly. In 30 years of professional drumming, I’ve not come across such a sensitive sound limiter. I definitely won’t play here again. Good luck if you book a band that has a live drummer. Zero vibe. I might add, it’s a perfectly nice wedding venue from what I’ve seen. If there’s a genuine reason for the noise limit, it’s just not suitable for live bands and I think they should rule it out altogether. It’s not fair on couples spending a lot of money on their big day, and it’s absolutely soul destroying for the unsuspecting musicians. Just being honest.
