The hosts and managers were great and accommodated to all of our needs. Thank you so much!Posted on Alia ShahzadiJuly 26, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really nicePosted on David CoxJuly 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our wedding at Prested Hall and literally cannot recommend them enough. The venue is beautiful and diverse with so many different aspects to work with. The grounds are large and we were able to have a number of different photo opportunities both for groups and as the couple. The ability to have guests utilise all of the space in the building in all of the different rooms made for a much more enjoyable experience for us and all of our guests. We used the Orangery and the team made it look beautiful and accommodated our requests wonderfully so we were able to marry looking out over the lake. They were then able to turn the room around into an amazing dining space. We had some challenging circumstances with a diagnosis in the family meaning we needed to arrange the wedding from scratch in 10 weeks. Prested Hall was the only venue to actually read our initial enquiry email and not just send a boiler plate "Congratulations on this exciting time" message. They understood the circumstances like actual human beings and recognised that while of course this was a happy occasion, that we were in a different position to most. Everyone that we spoke to there was so understanding and helpful, they helped us plan everything out according to how we wanted things to be and recommended exceptional suppliers. Lauren and Chetan were there the whole day with their great team and managed everything perfectly making sure we were happy. Through everything we felt incredibly supported and that the team were looking after us. The end result was not just incredible for what we could arrange in 10 weeks, it was an incredible day full stop. We honestly couldn't hope for morePosted on Allana Bradshaw-MannJuly 20, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
