- CCheryl Smith29/04/2017wedding coordinator, was an absolute dreamwedding coordinator, was an absolute dreamWe got married at Newland Hall on the 1st of July, and from beginning to end it truly was the most perfect day!! The team at Newland Hall really could not do enough for us. Anastasia, our wedding coordinator, was an absolute dream. She took care of everything, kept me on track with making arrangements and was on hand all day if anyone needed anything. The food was superb, the evening buffet was even better!!!! The venue was perfectly kept and as a result looked so nice in all the photos. All of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was and how good the food was. We thought given that the price was so much more affordable than other venues, that maybe there would be some corners cut. But everything was done to the highest standard and honestly did make our day magical. Really could not recommend this place more!

- mmusickatie29/04/2017The service was first class The service was first classWe had a wonderful 'Cosy and Intimate' wedding at this venue. The service was first class from the first phone enquiry to the day itself. The venue and package was perfect for our small party of 9 guests. What a bonus being able to have our four little dogs there too. Kelly and the whole team made the day with such friendly service. And so accommodating with our little tweaks that we asked to make along the way. The bride's prep room is lovely - very large light and airy. A lovely day - thank you.We had a wonderful 'Cosy and Intimate' wedding at this venue. The service was first class from the first phone enquiry to the day itself.
