    What a fantastic venue. After looking at a few for our wedding day, we knew Aldwick Estate was the one for us. So much space, lovely decor and accommodation, and it’s surrounded by beautiful grounds. Sarah, the coordinator, was so helpful in the lead up to the day and during it. She answered any questions we had and ensured the day went smoothly. The rest of the team were also fantastic and always on hand to help/serve guests. Finally, the prices of drinks at the bar were reasonable, which made our guests happy. We would highly recommend!

    At this venue for a charitable Xmas fair. The lanes in were waterlogged and heavily mudded in places so it's a relief to arrive to the well-managed car park. Great fair within the event building. Exit through the farm/woodyard was fun too.

    We attended Aldwick Estate for a conference. The location is very nice - a little bit out of the way, but easy enough to find. There is ample parking. It is set in a lovely, quiet, rural location. The room we were in is well serviced, light, and attractive with good acoustics. The family and staff were very accommodating, welcoming, and friendly. The catering was good. It is a very good spot for a conference/meeting.

    We had our wedding at Aldwick in March this year and it was the most beautiful day. Right from our initial visit to Aldwick, Sarah and the team were very attentive, helping us to plan our perfect day. Like many others we had to postpone our wedding and Sarah kept us in the loop and kept in communication with us which was really appreciated. The day itself flowed effortlessly as everything was taken care of, which enabled us to enjoy our special day. We would recommend this gorgeous venue to anyone thinking of having their wedding here. Ours was definitely worth the wait.

    We went along for a vineyard tour and picnic hamper. Very interesting talk by a charismatic man, interesting too. We learnt a lot on the 2 hour trip. Picnic hamper is a must and includes a bottle of wine. Wear sensible footwear as you do walk around the field on the tour.

    Just a short distance from the main A38, and a few miles from Bristol Airport. They have some very well built and furnished rooms available onsite to rent, with exceptional views of the valley in which the farm is situated. One of their old barns has been converted into a modern facility that can be used for conferences; and is also extremely popular as a wedding venue. It has excellent toilets, a great bar, and kitchen facilities that provide Michelin star rated food. As part of the farm's policy of diversifying, they planted a number of vines about 15 years ago. Since then they have developed a range of wines, some of which have received the highest awards for quality. They offer guided tours of their vinyards, and the opportunity to taste some of the product; this was the reason we were there. As part of the tour, you can also order a picnic basket, and then sit out in the grounds, enjoying the view. They are quite rightly proud of their achievements, and this came across well during the presentation which was extremely informative. The walk around the vinyard was really enjoyable, but be aware that the ground is heavy clay, so it can be wet and muddy; a change of footwear is recommended. They sell the wines they produce, either from hhe bar, or as bottles or by the case. It's not cheap, but it is worth indulging in a bottle for a special occasion.

    We had such a wonderful experience at the vineyard wine tasting tour last Sunday. We enjoyed a hamper and a bottle of wine before hand which was delicious. The staff were amazing. Couldn’t do enough for you. Would definitely recommend.

    We recently held our wedding at Aldwick and the whole experience was absolutely wonderful. All the guests commented on the beautiful venue, delicious food (thank you to Epic caterers and Carly for her input) and astounding quality of the wines. Sarah, Saffron and the rest of the Aldwick team were a delight to work with and worked with us to get a day that fit our brief perfectly. They took care of all the stress on the actual wedding day so that my husband and I could simply enjoy ourselves. Other unique sellings points to Aldwick are that you can have an outside legal wedding ceremony (which we did and was beautiful) and they can be flexible with whether it's indoors or outdoors, deciding by looking at the weather forecast on the day. They also have a gorgeous 'lodge' for the bride and groom to spend the night up in the vineyard, and excellent accomodation on-site for nearest and dearest. You can even have a wine-tasting for your guests on the wedding day! We cannot recommend them enough. THANK YOU!

    My partner and I got married here in June. All I can say is WOW. This was the most amazing venue, the most amazing staff who were nothing but friendly and ready to help at the drop of a hat, and absolutely gorgeous rooms for all the guests. All of our guests were in love with the venue - I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding in future. The vineyards just add to the magic of it and you'll be spoiled for choice for photos! Thank you so much again to the Aldwick team for making our wedding day unforgettable!

    Can’t recommend Aldwick enough! Such a beautiful venue for our wedding and a lovely team helping us to make it the perfect day. They were flexible and helpful when guiding us through multiple rearrangements due to Covid, making us feel special at every stage. The venue is beautifully laid out so that you don’t need to decorate it much if you don’t want to, but will also easily suit any theme you wanted. Sarah and the team couldn’t do enough to help on the day and the caterers were also attentive and served a delicious wedding breakfast. There are plenty of picturesque areas for wedding photos too. We have no negative comments and will be back for wine tasting in the future 👰🏻‍♀️💍

    I had a lovely time! It would be such an exceptional venue to have a wedding as I attended one there. Set in a Vineyard they had a delicious house wine which you can already tell is very fresh from the source. Staff are very attentive and friendly! Only troubling fault which isnt of the establishments fault is distance, quite out of the way.

    We would highly recommend Aldwick as a wedding venue. They have been professional, friendly and supportive at every point. We were originally due to get married in April 2020 and weren't married there until April 2022 and the team at Aldwick were incredibly flexible with us, allowing us to hold multiple dates until the restrictions were clearer. The venue itself was beautifully decorated exactly as we had requested. The day itself was so smooth, the second we arrived we didn't have to worry about a thing. All the staff were lovely and helpful. The catering partners clever chefs were great at accommodating different dietary needs and the food was lovely. A special thank you to our co-ordinator Sarah for all her support

    Our perfect wedding venue, May 2022 Aldwick were so helpful in the run up to our wedding, Sarah and the team held our hands throughout telling us what we needed to sort and guiding us through. The day itself was perfect with the team accommodating throughout. We had to delay a year due to covid but they couldn’t have made the process easier. THANK YOU We even had accommodation sorted for us and a handful of our guests.

    Excellent staff the wedding manager is amazing and makes everyone feel welcome and informed. I have had the pleasure of being a guest at two weddings here over the last few years, beautiful venue and very consistent standards and welcome. Wish I could get married again to use aldwick estate (married 34 years maybe a golden wedding party) 🥰. The gardens and the wine are wonderful.

    We got married at Aldwick Estate in August this year, and it was just perfect. The venue is beautiful and the team are so lovely. Sarah in particular was so warm, friendly and full of advice and kind words, as well as being professional with her many years of experience in this area. I would really recommend choosing Aldwick as your wedding venue!! :)

    Attended a workshop here, the organisation, food and refreshments were first rate. Some narrow roads to get there but the venue is lovely.

    We both want to say a massive and heart-felt thank you to you and the whole team at Aldwick Estates. You guys were amazing, throughout. Their patience and understanding over two COVID-stricken years and three wedding dates was so appreciated. We had a dream of what our wedding would be and that dream came to life the first time we stepped out of our car at Aldwick Estate. There were definitely times over the last couple of years when that dream faded for both of us and on a few occasions we considered other options. But thanks to the patience and support of the Aldwick team we never let it go and then our dream came true - better than we could have hoped. It was perfect and we had so many comments from our guests about how amazing the venue was! It was the best day of our lives and Sarah, Anna and the whole Aldwick team were a huge part of making that possible. Thank you!

    Don't just turn up, make sure they are actually open and not closed for a private event! They have a LOT of private events on all year round. This means you can't just pop into their shop to buy the wine. It wouldn't be too bad, but they NEVER advertise when these private events are on, through the website or social media, so its completely potluck as to whether you can go in. Would help if they answered their phones but they don't do that either... shame, because the wine is great.

    We had an evening party at Aldwick go celebrate our wedding and it was just perfect. The staff were so helpful and the food was absolutely delicious. Would also definitely recommend their suggested suppliers as our DJ was brilliant!

    We had our wedding here and cannot recommend Aldwick highly enough. Sarah, Carly, Eve and the team were absolutely wonderful and made our day better than we could have imagined. Lovely people, stunning venue and great wine!

  • 5/5 Stu Tucker P. 1 year ago on Google
    I recently shot a wedding here. Great venue - I can not recommend the place enough. The staff were all so friendly and extremely helpful and professional. The wedding was run so smoothly for my couple, while also giving them the space to be themselves and have the fun that they wanted. Very professional and down to earth team. Great experience and a wonderful day.

    We got married at this incredible venue on 15th September and it was everything we could have imagined and more. We looked at 12 venues before choosing Aldwick Estate and we both had the same feeling as we did when we bought our first home. We knew it was right for us and it did not disappoint. Our whole experience with the team has been great throughout; their communication impeccable and hugely responsive on email exchanges. Our pre wedding planning meeting with Sarah was warm and welcoming, visions for the day shared and help and advice given when needed yet encouraging us to do what made us happy. Everything on the day ran incredibly smoothly with a huge thanks to Sarah and Saffron for all their hard work they put in to making sure everything was perfect. The set up was exactly how I envisaged and the day ran seamlessly. All our guests absolutely Loved the venue and the staff were all so friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious and cannot speak highly enough of the catering team who did an incredible job. It was a day we will cherish forever and we are so thrilled that Aldwick gave us the dream wedding we had our sights on. Thank you to each and every one of the team, it was literally the best day ever.

    Me and my new husband Ian would just like to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to all the staff at Aldwick! We had our beautiful wedding there yesterday and can't fault the staff! They were very helpful and welcoming! All of our guests raved about the food and the venue and they all had a wonderful time! And we were very lucky to have the weather on our side! Thank you very much to everyone involved in our wedding from Epic Caterers for the gorgeous food, Kieran Clarke our DJ who was amazing! And just all the staff at Aldwick, you made our day very easy going and special. We now have an excuse to come visit every year now on our anniversary for a lovely bottle of wine! 🍷🥂

    We would like to say a huge thank you to all of the team at Aldwick Estate for making our day so special. We had the most perfect day with incredible food, wine and weather! Our wedding day was everything hoped for and more. From our first visit at an open day, we knew Aldwick Estate was the venue for us. We were really taken by the welcoming atmosphere and the stunning setting. We have enjoyed every step of the planning process from the vineyard tour, to the food tasting and meeting the team to discuss our vision for the day. The team were helpful, enthusiastic and responsive and we felt very well looked after throughout the planning process and on the day. Natasha & Rob
