Thank You's
Kind words
We love it when our clients send us feedback, it makes all the effort so worthwhile for our staff and owners alike. Reputations are hard to forge and easy to lose. We are delighted that now, in our twentieth year, nearly half of our enquiries are by word of mouth.
Debbie & Neil - March 23, 2026
That was just the BEST day!! Thank you to all of your team – cleaners, caterers, wedding managers, admin team and especially Nikki who was just completely fabulous on Monday. We could not have had a better time – it was so full of love and joy and fun.
And thanks to Claire who really looked after us on Tuesday morning and sent us off with a lovely breakfast.
From the very start of this process with you, from our initial meeting in February last year to the packing up to go home yesterday morning, it has been an absolute pleasure to work with you. You have all been so professional, responsive, friendly, helpful and supportive which culminated in a magical day on Monday. Nikki was so wonderful from start to finish on the day and really made us feel like our wedding and happiness was the single most important thing to her!
Thank you all for making this one of the best days of our lives.
All best wishes

Perfect venue, amazing staff!
We truly couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful day, and the team at South Farm helped make that happen. We fell in love with the venue from the moment we visited, and the team immediately helped us to envision our perfect day. All throughout, we really felt like the team were making sure we had the day that we wanted, and thought about every detail – including ones we hadn’t even considered. All the staff at South Farm are incredibly friendly and truly took our thoughts, preferences and desires into consideration to help put together a day that was truly special and perfect. Our guests are still raving about how lovely the venue was and how delicious the food was. If we could have our wedding day all over again, we would pick South Farm in a heartbeat!
Tam && Rob - February 21, 2026
Dear Emily, Evie, Deborah, Nikki and ALL the staff,
We honestly don’t know where to begin in thanking you for the most incredible day. From the moment we arrived, everything felt so special. The venue looked breathtakingly beautiful, so many of our guests told us it was the most stunning setting, and the food was praised constantly throughout the day. We’re still receiving messages about how amazing everything tasted!
What really touched us were all the little details happening quietly behind the scenes. So much care, thought and hard work clearly goes into what you do, and it made such a difference to how the whole day felt. Everything ran so smoothly, and we were able to relax and just be fully present with our family and friends.
Bringing the donkeys out was such a magical touch — the children absolutely adored it (and if we’re honest, so did we!). It created such a joyful, unforgettable moment.
A heartfelt thank you to Evie and Emily for all your kindness and support in the lead-up to the wedding, to Deborah for everything you do behind the scenes and for welcoming us so warmly when we first visited, and to Nikki on the day for looking after us with such genuine care — constantly checking in and making sure we were okay. We felt so completely supported. And for keeping things going so smoothly! I think I may have looked like a startled chicken for the first part of the day but slowly the nerves started to go, and all thanks to how well it was going!
We’d also like to thank all of the staff — every single person we encountered was so friendly, warm and professional. Our guests commented on how lovely everyone was, and that atmosphere made such a difference to the whole experience.
As a couple, we felt so calm, cared for and truly celebrated. You created a day that felt joyful, effortless and completely magical — one we will treasure for the rest of our lives. We feel incredibly lucky to have celebrated at South Farm.
With our warmest and most heartfelt thanks
Michelle & Richard - February 19, 2026
Dear Nikki and all of the team
The theme of our wedding was never about colour schemes or fitting to a script. We wanted to be inclusive, personal, warm, welcoming, meaningful and fun
With the fantastic help of all of the team at South Farm we achieved all that we dared to hope for – and more. Special thanks particularly to Nikki and Hayley and everyone who was working tirelessly behind the scenes
There aren’t words enough to express our joy, happiness and satisfaction at how well our day manifested itself
We will hold the day – our family, friends, the SF team, registrars, suppliers, pigs and donkeys – as the most very special, cherished memory in our hearts forever
With every good wish to you all as you move into your busy season of the year
Love
Michelle and Richard

Perfect wedding day
My husband and I recently got married at South Farm and we had the most amazing experience. The venue is gorgeous and even on a drizzly day in January it looked stunning. Prior to choosing South Farm we had looked at quite a few other venues but we just didn’t feel that instant connection – South Farm was different and as soon as we’d viewed it we knew it was the one! Nikki, our event manager, was amazing on the lead up to the wedding and on the day and nothing felt rushed. Any questions we had were answered straight away, she was always there when we needed her and she made us feel at ease. The food was incredible and all our of guests complimented it (we had the hot buffet). We bought a lot of our own decor but the venue comes with lots of lovely plants, fairy lights and little touches which mean you don’t have to worry about getting a huge amount of decor. Accommodation was great, very clean and comfy and the campers / wagon bathrooms were the best we had seen for campers!! DJ Gary bought so much energy to the dance floor and played banger after banger. We had a tasty full English the day after the wedding as well. It was my mums birthday and without us asking, they bought out a little brownie with a candle in which was lovely and shows how much thought goes into any decision. We would highly recommend South Farm and we really hope we can return as wedding guests in the future!
Julia & Jack - December 20, 2025
Thank you for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Not only is South Farm beautiful at every angle, but every member of the team goes above and beyond in making it the best day for their couples.
It was a pleasure working with a venue who keeps everything so organised and transparent, planning our wedding here really couldn’t have been any smoother. All of the office team were happy to help on any enquiries throughout the process. Shout out to Emily and Nikki for helping tie everything together in the final weeks.
Hayley was our coordinator on the day and she was an incredible presence. Her kindness, excitement and professionalism were just some of her qualities which shone throughout. She kept the day running smoothly and efficiently. Thank you, Hayley!
We knew South farm was fantastic but it’s also been a pleasure to hear excellent feedback from our guests. The food and dinner service was brilliant with everyone enjoying their meals, South Farm also made exceptional efforts to accommodate guests with food allergies which was a lovely touch.
Jessica & Dave - December 10, 2025
The Best Day of Our Lives 🥰
Our biggest thanks to the whole of the South Farm team for making our day so wonderful, especially Claire and Helen who looked after us so well and made sure everyone was where they should be, their service and help was second to none. To everyone who worked our wedding and to everyone behind the scenes we cannot thank you enough, the venue was exceptional, the food was out of this world, the planning and service was so professional and the rooms were absolutely faultless, this includes Fen Bridge Farm B&B. DJ Gary was an absolute rockstar!! Every single guest sung praises of the team and venue and you all made the best day of our lives really as and truly the best day of our lives!
Izzi & Will - November 24, 2025
Stunning venue – thank you to an amazing team
South Farm gave us everything we could have wanted for our wedding day. We had shopped around to try and make the day of our dreams happen but were immediately impressed by South Farm’s extremely transparent prices and packages. We went for a package that suited us and were amazed. The team are super communicative, always happy to help and answer questions and were really flexible, allowing us to DIY a lot of our wedding. Shame you only get to do it once, we would want another day at South Farm again in a heartbeat!
Sam & Julie - November 22, 2025
Fantastic wedding venue, cannot recommend enough.South Farm were very professional, friendly and welcoming with us from the get go. We were treated warmly by the staff at all times, and they all knew what they were doing. We appreciated they always had good advice for us when planning the wedding, but never forced us to do things a certain way. They were very flexible when we talked about what we wanted for the wedding, and suggested what rooms we could use, and what could be done in between to make sure everything worked out well timing wise.
A special shout out goes to their kitchen staff who make some of the best food we have ever eaten. The hog roast buffet was incredible and there was lots of choice in what food we could have served. Every member of staff was very polite and went out of their way to make our lives easier, especially our event manager for the day, Evie, who was delightful to work with.
Only one thing to note when planning, they are not able to set up any decorations on the morning before our church service so we did have to find some friends to do it at short notice.
While planning with them, replies to emails always came fast, we never felt like we had to chase about anything. The accommodation was very nice and clean, and felt reasonably priced. In addition the clearing down was taken care of by night staff so we didn’t have to do any of it. Everything was arranged out for us in the morning with flowers still on tables for breakfast! It was something very special.
Sophie & Isaac - November 14, 2025
South Farm made our day incredible
We got married at South Farm on the 14th of November 2025 and had the most perfect day.
I saw South Farm online in 2024 but we did not get a chance to visit until the beginning of April this year. From the moment my husband and I looked around, we fell in love and snapped up a date that same weekend.
The team at South Farm have been incredible throughout our journey. Evie showed us around and helped us plan our day. Emily kept in contact over email and made sure everything was on track and Helen was our on the day event manager. The entire team was super helpful in ensuring we had the perfect wedding day.
Our wedding day ended up having the worst weather and we needed to make lots of last moment changes as a result. South Farm had already written a wet-weather alternative, but I think the sheer amount of rain was a shock to everyone. Helen worked with me to make sure we could still do everything which was important to me, such as our confetti toss. The staff also made sure I was completely covered by umbrellas when moving from the coach house suite to the Tudor barn for our ceremony.
Our day turned out perfect and we were completely accommodated for. I have mobility issues and the staff made sure I was able to get everything I needed and they worked with the registrars to ensure we could sit in the ceremony if I needed to. Additionally, Helen made sure to check in with us periodically to make sure we were happy and she was able to get us anything we needed or wanted.
The food for both the wedding breakfast and the evening reception was heavenly. We opted for a 2 course hot buffet and there was more than enough food for everyone. Many of our guests went up for seconds and we received many compliments on the food. I was desperate to have beef for one of our main options, which was not on the hot buffet menu, but the team sorted this for us for a small surcharge. I am so glad this was able to happen.
Finally, we had a large Connie and Colin the Caterpillar cake. I had made a veil and top hat for them but during transport from our house to the venue, they were misplaced. I was willing to go without them, but Helen, not wanting to disappoint, made sure we had a veil and top hat for our cakes. The staff sewed a napkin using chicken wire and they printed a top hat and added them to the cakes. They checked we were happy before we showed our guests and I honestly think they turned out better than my own. Helen and the staff went so above and beyond.
We are so happy with how our day turned out and are so glad we picked South Farm. Our family and friends adored it and all of our guests who stayed in accommodation loved their rooms. The full English (served by Claire) was just what everyone wanted in the morning. The staff also cleared up our decorations overnight, making packing in the morning super smooth!
Emma & George - November 8, 2025
Amazing Wedding at South Farm
We had our wedding at South Farm on the 8th November this year, and from start to finish the team there were absolutely amazing to work with. From the first show round South Farm stood out, not only because of the stunning venue itself, but also because of the care and attention to detail that all of the team showed. It made us feel like we were in safe hands, and that feeling continued throughout all of the planning with our detailed planning meeting, menu tastings and constant comms throughout. The day itself couldn’t have gone any better, and the team were great at adapting to some last minute changes. All of our guests commented on how delicious the food was, and Nikki, our on the day event coordinator was absolutely amazing. Couldn’t speak higher of the venue or the team.
Hannah & Oliver - October 20, 2025
The BEST venue!!!
We don’t have words to express how perfect this venue and all of the staff working there are! It’s a stunning venue with stunning grounds and incredible food! We got married here on Monday and our day was far better than I ever imagined it would be, they really do go above and beyond! All of the stress was taken out of planning the day, with a special mention to both Nikki and Evie, all requests and questions are answered promptly, with a few suggestions to enhance our ideas too. And then on the day, we had Helen as our event manager and she was absolutely fantastic! Honestly made our day so special!! If you’re considering this venue, go for it, you won’t find better!
Chloe & Joe - October 17, 2025
Hi to everyone at South Farm,
Joe and I wanted to send a massive thank you for making our wedding day the day of our dreams! Everything was absolutely perfect – from the staff (including our wonderful event manager Hayley who went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic day) to the food to the impeccable organisation and special touches throughout the day.
So many of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to, and South Farm played such a massive part in this. The food received so many complements – the steak in particular was a big favourite when we spoke to all our guests. We loved the little touches that the staff put on throughout the day, including coming back to a lovely card and bottle of bubbly in our room 🥂
To top of our magical day, the south farm fairies set up a beautiful setting for our breakfast helping us to relive our wedding day. It was so wonderful seeing the tables set up, and even our memory ladder with photos of lost ones displayed. It truly meant so much to us ❤️
Our photographer (insta lifestylephotography_bytrish) has shared a few preview photos that we wanted to share in the links below. And our videographer Tom is planning to send a teaser trailer for our wedding soon too.
We would love to see any content you managed to capture throughout the day so that we can relive the day whilst away on our mini moon 🫶
Thank you again for the most perfect day,
Mr and Mrs Ison
Em & Cam - October 11, 2025
Fantastic wedding venue
We had the best day ever at our wedding at South Farm in October 2025. South Farm was the only venue we visited and we instantly fell in love at our show round. The venue is stunning and so well kept from the bedrooms and the indoor spaces to the beautiful grounds, and offered everything we wanted for our big day. The food was amazing at the menu tasting and on the day itself! South Farm is a well oiled machine and everything leading up to and on the day ran so smoothly from the room turnovers to meal service. Everyone was always so friendly, helpful and responsive to any questions we had, and seemed to genuinely care that we had the best wedding possible. We had so many compliments on how fantastic South Farm was as a venue and honestly we wouldn’t have changed a thing about the day! You will not regret booking South Farm!
Flora & Paulo - October 10, 2025

Holly & David - October 3, 2025
Thank you so much, we really did have the best day of our lives! We’re so sad it’s over but so pleased with how well everything went, it truly was perfect! We’d also like to share how grateful we are to Evie, she did such an amazing job ahead of our wedding and on the day – honestly everything we thought of she was one step ahead and just made the day perfect for us.
Many thanks again for all of the teams help in creating the best day for us!
Bex & Paul - September 27, 2025
We both had an amazing day and have had loads of great feedback from our guests too. Actually, the whole process from our first open day visit last August onwards, has been flawless from everyone at South Farm. Thank you to the whole team for everything! Thank you so much again, we really did have the best day! People keep making comments about how pleased we must be to be done with wedding planning. I think we’ll actually miss it though, we had a lot of fun with it. You guys are a big reason for that 😊
Cathy & Steve - September 27, 2025
Hi
I wanted to share with you what a wonderful day we had at my son’s and daughter in laws wedding. It was amazing. Staff could not have been more welcoming and guided us to what to put where. Evie went above and beyond expectations working a long day to support us. Nothing was too much trouble for her and on the couple of slight problems we had she immediately came up with a solution. We cannot thank her enough and please tell her how much we appreciated her. She had so many skills and experience in wedding planning.
The food was amazing throughout the day and at the following breakfast.
Thank you again to all of your team who worked so hard.
Kind Regards
Cathy and Steve
Eleanor & Ashley - September 25, 2025
Perfect venue
We had the most incredible day, and received so many compliments on the venue, the food, the staff.. it was honestly the most perfect and magical day! The photos in the grounds look beautiful, the food and service was impeccable and the dance floor/evening was incredible. The staff are so helpful in planning and on the day (shout out to Evie for being amazing for our day!) – the tasting evening is also the best meal I’ve ever had! Would absolutely recommend South Farm and wish we could do it all over again!
Hannah & Mark - September 24, 2025
We actually don’t know where to begin in thanking you for everything you did for us.
Every single member of your team were absolutely incredible; so kind, so professional, and so genuinely caring. You made not only me, but mark too feel completely supported and relaxed from start to finish, and it was very evident to us, how much pride you all take in what you do.
You didn’t just run our wedding; you made it come alive with warmth, attention to detail, and a real sense of joy. We’ll never forget the little things, the reassuring smiles ( and I needed them) the thoughtful touches, the calm words in those hectic moments, in all of this and so much more, you made us feel incredibly looked after.
We feel truly privileged to have had our wedding at such a beautiful venue with such wonderful people guiding us through. Thank you for giving us memories we shall cherish forever.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
We shall always be forever indebted to you all. We cannot praise you all enough.
If we could give you a 11 out 10, we most whole heartedly would.
Thank you doesn’t do it justice, but thank you so much.
Rach & Jack - September 22, 2025
Best day of our lives <3
South Farm is such a stunning venue, it’s quirky and like no other. From the animals to the outdoor ceremony and rustic rooms (including gypsy caravans) it really does stand out from the rest. Our guests all commented on what a lovely venue it was, we would highly recommend to anyone. Mr & Mrs McCool (22.09.25) xx
Clare & Paul - September 21, 2025
Hi Nikki, hope all well with you 😊
A belated big thank you for all your help to make our Wedding Day so special! We had the BEST day ever, it was wonderful! We were so pleased that you were our wedding planner as your calmness and humour helped us as we navigated our way through all the planning process. I’m sure the “planting of the sausage” will be a memory that we will all remember!
A huge thanks also to South Farm, everyone, and we mean everyone, was amazing – incredibly helpful, friendly and professional.
We have received so many compliments about you and how fab you were on the day as you gently assisted with making it a special day for us. All our guests absolutely loved South Farm, they too were enchanted by its magic! Finally, to be able to hold the wedding ceremony outside was the icing on the cake for us.
We would also like to sing the praises of our wonderful suppliers (all of whom we found off your list) – Bea (photographer), Emily (florist), Kim (hair) and Gary (DJ).
Big thank you again, we really did have the most amazing day!
With much love, Clare and Paul xx
Sarah & John - September 20, 2025
All the south farm staff we spoke to in the run up to our wedding day were fantastic – professional, helpful, enthusiastic and friendly. Two staff were especially memorable – Claire looking after “morning after” breakfasts, and Evie, our wedding co-ordinator on the day did an amazing job.
Sarah & Liam - September 17, 2025
Thank you, the day was perfect and everything we had hoped for plus the gluten-free catering seems to have been a great success.
We have received raving accounts of the day from guests as well, concerning all our suppliers and South Farm.
Nicola & Matt - September 13, 2025
Thank you to all at South Farm, we had the most amazing day as did our guests!! All the team are fantastic but we would like to extend this to Hayley and Sue who went above and beyond to make our day! And thank you to Evie for all her help with our planning!
Thank you all again,

The best day – would not change a single thing
South farm are an incredible venue – would really recommend them. They made the planning really easy and stress free and were just perfect on the day. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us. We particularly loved the vibe of the venue – as the Danes would say, it was very Hygge.
Heidi & Joe - September 10, 2025
Team South Farm,
Where to begin…! We are forever grateful for everything you have provided us with, support / decision making from the very beginning of planning our special day all the way through to the unexpected events on the morning of the wedding.
You truly have the most incredible team, we want to express our deepest gratitude for all the support and attention to the smallest details with such care. You ensured we were able to run as seamlessly as possible, and you gave amazing support to my friends, family, suppliers when having an uninvited wedding guest…my kidney stone!!! Your empathy and support will forever be remembered.
A very special mention to Helen, what an absolute incredible woman you are!!! The check ins with us on weather, movement were perfect and ensured our guests had the best time possible. Checking that i was hydrated, plus the cranberry juice and wedding cake brought to our room was such a thoughtful touch.
We are off to Sorrento tomorrow, but i will pop by with something to say thank you once we are back!!
Hope you have a brilliant rest of the week and weekend,
Love Heidi, Joe & Marv

Harriet & Theo - September 6, 2025
Hello!
Thank you so much for everything! We had the best day and so many of our guests commented how wonderful it all was, particularly the food! The whole team has our sincere gratitude, thank you for making our wedding day more perfect than we could have imagined.
Warmest regards,
Harriet & Theo
Louise & Sam - September 5, 2025
Myself and my partner got married here at the start of the month, when we first came to the venue we knew straight away that it was the venue we would want to get married in. It is beautiful with amazing gardens which are colourful, beautiful and immaculate.
The wedding planning was made alot more easier with all the help and links supplied by South Farm the support from the team was amazing and would always be very helpful.
The day itsself was the most perfect, day that anyone could ask for the staff were lovely and all the guests had nothing but good remarks and words to say about how amazing the staff were. The food was to die for, it was by the far the best food I have ever had at a wedding and I am glad it was my own. Everyone also complemented the food all day, including the evening buffet. The staff really look after you as a couple throughout the whole process of the wedding and make sure you have the most beautiful and amazing day ever.
Our guests had the most incredible day and they could not fault South farm whatsoever. Myself and my partner could not recommend enough South Farm, if you want the perfect wedding then I strongly recommend here.
Lucy & Brad - September 4, 2025
We had the absolutely best day, more than we could have imagined and we honestly wish we could do it every day! We couldn’t have asked for more!! We had the most incredible day and can’t thank the team at south farm enough for helping us to create a day far beyond than we could have imagined!
Natalie & Dominic - August 31, 2025
Natalie and I can’t describe how much we enjoyed Sunday, and how perfect it was. A massive big thankyou to the team for your excellent help in the run up to and on the big day. The venue was amazing, and we are so grateful to the weather allowing us to be outdoors. We had so many people comment on the venue, saying how beautiful it was and how it fit us a couple so well. The South Farm team are so nice and welcoming. Rabbi Yael was obsessed with the venue and really enjoyed it (including the box of veg that was given to her!). They also loved the ducks that walked down the aisle of course.
We have had so many people say it was so well planned and that this was a truly special jewish wedding. Not many people have experienced a Tisch like that, and the old dairy was perfect setting for it. The Chuppah was beautiful.
Guests also loved the food! We had a lot of meat eaters at the wedding, and typically kosher vegan food at a wedding is quite poor. Guests seemed to love every course (there were lots of empty plates). Food portions and quality were great. Also, a big thankyou for taking dietary requirements so seriously, we had guests mention that to us.
A huge thankyou to Becky and Evie for on the day – could not have been more perfect. They were both one step of us and kept everything running smoothly – and even came to Natalie’s rescue when she got stung by a wasp!
The breakfast the following morning was great. The horse barn was decorated so nicely and the food was exactly what we needed.
We could keep going through the day and thankyou for making it perfect, but we should go and enjoy our honeymoon. Thankyou!
Kate & Fran - August 29, 2025
We celebrated our wedding at South Farm, and it truly was the most incredible day. The venue itself is stunning, but what made it unforgettable was the wonderful team who brought everything together so seamlessly. We couldn’t have wished for a better place or better people to share our special day with. Our guests are still talking about how exceptional the food was!
Olivia & George - August 28, 2025
We cannot thank Evie and the entire team enough for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. From the moment we arrived, everything ran seamlessly, and it was clear how much care and effort had gone into every detail.
The chefs were incredible — the food was honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. Our guests are still talking about it and have even been asking us for recipes! Every dish was beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious.
The staff were outstanding. Their kindness, warmth, and friendliness made everyone feel so welcome. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their calm professionalism helped make the day feel effortless.
Our rooms were spacious, spotless, and wonderfully maintained. It was such a comfortable place for us and our guests to relax and get ready. The grounds were equally impressive — perfectly kept, beautiful at every turn, and the most stunning backdrop for our photos.
Choosing this venue was one of the best decisions we made. We are beyond happy that we celebrated our wedding here, and we would do it all again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Evie and team, for giving us a day we will cherish forever. 💛
Rachel & Chris - August 24, 2025
Deepika & Edward - August 20, 2025
I cannot believe it’s nearly a year since me and Ed had the most amazing wedding day at South Farm. By far, the best day of our lives! The venue, the organisation, the food, and most importantly the vibe really encompassed the love we wanted to share. We cannot thank you enough. Our guests say, it was the best wedding they’ve been to! No exaggeration!!
Eleni & Dan - August 18, 2025
South Farm is more than just a wedding venue; it is an experience. From the first visit to the very end of the day, the team’s professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail made our wedding unforgettable. We could not have asked for a better setting, a smoother experience, or a more memorable day.
Venue & Atmosphere:
We visited several wedding venues, but South Farm immediately felt special. From the moment we arrived, it was welcoming, organised, and full of charm, without ever feeling rushed or pressured. The staff made us feel at home straight away, and I was even able to come back with my mum to show her around. It really felt like a place that genuinely cared about its couples.
Planning & Communication:
The planning process was completely stress-free thanks to the team’s clear and prompt communication. They were always happy to answer questions, offer advice, and help with anything we needed. Everything felt transparent from start to finish, which gave us confidence that our day would run smoothly.
Food & Catering:
The food at South Farm is absolutely incredible. The tasting session was so much fun, and every dish we tried was delicious. The staff were warm, friendly, and positive throughout. On the day, we went for the BBQ buffet, and it exceeded all expectations. Guests are still talking about how tasty it was.
On the Day Experience:
Our wedding day ran perfectly thanks to the amazing team. Evie, our coordinator, was exceptional. She was professional, organised, and friendly, and so many guests commented on how fantastic she was. Every detail was handled seamlessly, which meant we could truly enjoy the day.
Helena & Jacob - August 15, 2025
Nadhir & Meriem - August 9, 2025
After scouting different venues, we couldn’t be happier with choosing South Farm for our special day. It ticked all our boxes — surrounded by nature, serene, classy, and spotless. The whole place just had this calm, elegant vibe that made the day feel extra special for everyone.
On top of that, the organization and communication were absolutely top-notch. Everything ran smoothly, and we felt completely taken care of from start to finish.
And finally…the food… . Truly to die for! I keep wishing I could go back in time just to eat more.
Victoria & Ben - August 8, 2025
Dear South Farm Team,
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for hosting our wedding last Friday. The day was absolutely perfect and we couldn’t fault a single thing!
The food was amazing and so many of our guests commented on how delicious everything was. A special shout-out to Becky, who was incredibly organised and calm; we felt completely taken care of from start to finish.
Please pass our thanks to everyone involved on the day. We’ll be recommending South Farm to anyone planning a celebration!
It truly was the best day EVER, thank you all so much!!
Best wishes,
Victoria and Ben
Jess & Pete - August 7, 2025
From the moment we walked through South Farm’s doors on our first tour, to planning, to our special day itself, we were made to feel like we were the only couple getting married. The attention and care we were shown from the very outset was second to none.
Our wedding was a little different to the usual, and South Farm lived up to their motto – distinctly different. South Farm went above and beyond to help our vision come to life and it was more than we could ever have dreamed of.
We cannot thank everyone at South Farm enough, particularly our event manager Nikki Fox who literally felt like part of our family celebrating with us on the day. We were so looked after.
Everyone was so complimentary of the venue, its charm and beauty – exactly what we had fallen in love with – as well as the atmosphere and how relaxed the day was, which was exactly what we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble.
South Farm is not just a wedding venue, it’s an experience. One we will cherish for the rest of our lives and we cannot be more thankful to everyone at South Farm.
We cannot recommend them enough and won’t hesitate in sharing their name far and wide!

Wow wow wow, we had our wedding I July this year and it was the most amazing day ever. The staff at South Farm were amazing and so helpful from start to finish. The ‘night fairies’ were just incredible ensuring everything was placed into categories making it so much easier to tidy in the morning. The food was insane, we did not have one moan from our guests – they all enjoyed it so much, they were also impressed at how sustainable the venue is. We fell in love with the venue 3 years ago when we first looked around and it was everything we thought it was going to be and more. Thank you so much!
Lucy & Dan - July 21, 2025
We got married in July 2025 and honestly couldn’t imagine a better venue than South Farm. All of the staff at every point made it clear in their actions and words that their main priority was to make sure the day was as special as it should be for us, and they delivered time and time again. Special thanks to Evie for helping it all run exactly as we dreamed of!
Our initial viewing was really helpful with the sort of options that we could have, and there seemed like a wide range of choices to make the day exactly what we wanted. We had a really useful planning document/spreadsheet shared with us that showed just how much everything was so we could keep track of the spending against out expectations, and any questions we had were answered promptly by the team. We decided to go with South Farm because the grounds were gorgeous and the team genuinely cared about our day – in the end it was every single penny well spent.
The menu tasting was a real event and we stayed overnight in one of the caravans to see what it would be like for some of our guests (and it was very comfortable!). The food was delicious and there were plenty of veggie options. Our planning meeting with Evie was incredibly helpful with talking through timings, settings, and what the overall day would look like, which ended up being almost exactly how it went. We were very lucky to have Evie as our coordinator on the day as well and could not have been happier. She helped everything run along smoothly behind the scenes and let us know what was happening at every point. It was a real hands-off experience where we knew that every step was handled expertly and with care to ensure it followed our ideal plan from our planning meeting.
If we could redo the day, I don’t think we would change a thing. The only thing that could have ruined our plans was the weather on the day but somehow South Farm pulled that out of the bag as well and had the sun come out for our outdoor ceremony and drinks reception and put off the raining until we were inside for the wedding breakfast. We can’t thank the team enough for all their efforts – they’ve made it a day to remember for so many different reasons.
Thank you South Farm!
Arathi & Ash - July 13, 2025
Our wedding at South Farm was incredible! We truly cannot recommend this place enough. From the moment we started planning right through to the last dance, the team at South Farm went above and beyond to make our day absolutely perfect (shout out to Nikki and Helen)
The staff were simply outstanding. Their responsiveness and helpfulness in the lead-up to the wedding were exceptional, and on the day itself, they were truly on point. They listened attentively to all our wishes, catering to our every need and effortlessly taking away all the stress, especially during the busy morning preparations. They even took wonderful care of all our guests, including the more particular ones!
Our day was a busy one, starting with a traditional Sri Lankan ceremony. This was something South Farm hadn’t hosted before, but their dedication shone through. They researched it thoroughly, showing a genuine keenness to learn and adapt, making us feel completely supported and understood. Following this, we had our civil ceremony, and again, the team was impeccable with directing us and managing all the timings, seamlessly handling every element, including the music. Their advice on the best timing for our photo booth was spot on – having it during the reception dancing was absolutely ideal, and we’re so glad we listened!
Beyond the exceptional service, the venue itself is utterly perfect. The vibrant red roses, coupled with the yellow and blue house, livened up every corner, creating a truly joyful homely atmosphere. And of course, the animals on the farm added such a unique and charming touch. As I walked down the aisle, the baby ducks even started waddling alongside, as if directing me towards the aisle – they were definitely paid actors!
What truly impressed us even more was the excellent value for money South Farm offered. They were super on top of all reconciliations and financial aspects, making the entire process transparent and stress-free.
Everything about South Farm was just so lovely, and our day was truly magical thanks to their incredible efforts. We wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple looking for a truly special and stress-free wedding experience.
Michelle Palmer - July 10, 2025
Dear South Farm,
We are back In Hampshire after our daughter’s wedding to Simon and my husband and I just wanted to thank you for a perfect and unique wedding venue.
My husband grew all the flowers for our daughter’s wedding and it fitted perfectly with your stunning venue.
Most importantly we would like to thank all your very kind and considerate staff from the start of the day to the end of the day and beyond.
Hayley coordinated the day and she was a true professional and couldn’t do enough for us and never once did her smile leave her face.
Clare who I met as she came into work on Friday morning was delightful and I thoroughly enjoyed talking to her, she is incredibly kind and friendly.
I also want to take the time to thank the night crew who moved all our milk churn displays, jam jar flowers, welcome sign and table plan and most importantly photographs of departed loved family members and made a beautiful display. That was going up and beyond and it meant so much.
To all the hardworking staff thank you, each and every one of you made for a wonderful day and we are incredibly grateful.
The hog roast was delicious and all the food was so well made and presented. Thank you to the kitchen and the serving staff.
This will be a day my husband will always remember. Thank you.
Hartley Hartley Music - July 5, 2025
I was performing at South Farm on Saturday for a beautiful wedding. From the moment I arrived, Evie the Wedding Coordinator, was totally amazing. She made sure I knew exactly where I was going, where to set up and explained all the timings to me. It was just the perfect day and I would highly recommend this place. Its absolutely beautiful, the staff are amazing and the service is second to none!

Chloe & Robbie - June 27, 2025
We got married at South Farm in June and it was just the best day of our lives! South Farm was the perfect venue, and we knew that from our first visit.
Everything was brilliant, the venue is beautiful and the team are just amazing. South Farm have got weddings down to a fine art, from the quick turn around of rooms, food and drink choices, ceremony options, waiting staff, planning staff, gardening team, kitchen team – South Farm made it an absolute dream.
The weather was perfect – we had a few people asking where abouts in the South of France our wedding was, because the grounds were gorgeous! We loved every second and I really couldn’t imagine our wedding anywhere else.
Elicia & Max - June 26, 2025
As soon as we drove in on our very first visit, we knew this was the venue for us. South Farm is wonderful in every way – the stunning scenery, the animals, the absolutely incredible food (most of which is grown on site!) not to mention the amazing people who work here – the happiest and friendliest bunch of people I think we’ve ever met. Nothing was too much to ask, they actively encouraged us to make our special day unique to us and we will be forever grateful for that. We truly had the most magical day we could have ever wished for. South Farm will always have a special place in our hearts – the home of our favourite day ever.
Emily & Ryan - June 22, 2025
I first came across south farm online and fell in love with the venue . Myself & my husband booked a viewing and it was everything we had wished for and more!! The friendly staff and animals around the venue were the cherry on top of the cake. We decided to look at more venues as south farm was the first one we looked at and we kept coming away with south farm at the top. We booked a second viewing with family members and they all fell in love with the venue like us, we knew it was the one! We then attended the food tasting evening which we were both looking forward to as we are big foodies and wow what an excellent night, the food was amazing. We had lots of comments from guests after the wedding saying how fantastic the food was and it was the best wedding food they have had! The staff were fantastic and listened to everything we needed & wanted, I couldn’t fault a thing! I wish we could redo the day again from start to finish.
Sue & Patrick - June 20, 2025
When we first arrived at South Farm for a first visit, we knew instantly that this would be the venue for our big day. There was simply no comparison, nowhere else came close. From the planning, to the big-day itself, the team at South Farm were exemplary. We’ll always remember how perfect our day was – even the weather fully cooperated. All of our guests, from both the UK and abroad, had the same feedback – “wow!”. The ceremony, the reception, the food, the location…. all outstanding.
All that is left to say is “thank-you”.
Ellie & Sam - June 14, 2025
We honestly do not have the right words to express just how grateful we are for everything you did for us. You were absolutely incredible from start to finish. The attention to detail, Nicki’s calm presence, and the genuine care you put into every part of our day was beyond anything we could have hoped for.
Because of you, everything felt so effortless and smooth. We were able to be present and enjoy every moment, knowing we were in the best possible hands. You took our vision, and somehow made it even better. We are still in awe of how beautifully it all came together.
The venue was simply stunning, the entire team on the day were absolutely amazing and they made everything feel more magical!
We truly couldn’t have imagined a more perfect day, and all of that is thanks to you and the team!
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Annie & George - June 11, 2025
We just wanted to touch in and say a massive thank you to yourself and the team at South Farm for everything in the lead up to and on our big day last Wednesday.
The venue was stunning and everything we could have hoped for on our wedding day. We’ve already had so many of our guests share this sentiment and I think it’s safe to say everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
We appreciate all the efforts from the team at South Farm and wanted to extend a special mention to Helen who was fantastic throughout the day to help make sure everything ran smoothly and always seemed to be there whenever we needed anything.
Caroline & Tom - May 31, 2025
Tom and I just wanted to thank the team at South Farm again for a wonderful day on Saturday. The day couldn’t have gone better, and we’ve no doubt that was because of the efficiency, attentiveness and friendliness of the staff. All of our guests had a fabulous day and we got so many compliments about the food (one of our guests said the food was “out of this world”).
In particular, we wanted to thank Hayley for being totally amazing. She made the day go so seamlessly. Hayley made us feel completely relaxed, and was so friendly and on the ball all day. From running around moving our flowers to make sure every part of the day looked stunning, to trekking through the fields with us so that we could see the pigs, every aspect of our day was perfect thanks to her. And they were just the bits we noticed. I’m sure Hayley had to deal with lots of things we weren’t even aware of too, so thank you Hayley.
Also a mention to Claire, who was the first member of staff I spoke to when I first arrived at South Farm to set up the Tudor Barn. Claire was busy serving breakfast next door but still found the time to give me a really friendly welcome (and knew who I was before I told her my name) and helped me relax as I was setting up. Breakfast the next day was fab too.
Nicola & Graeme - May 30, 2025
| A glorious day in May allowed us to marry outside in the Summerhouse. The staff were attentive, and the event manager, Evie, was a godsend. Everything ran like clockwork and she made sure the bride and groom had bubbly and food when time allowed during photo shoots etc. The food was delicious and the choice extensive. We and our guests had the run of the extensive grounds for the day, which are beautiful. |
Emily & Brandon - May 28, 2025
To Hayley & The Team at South Farm, We both wanted to say a huge thank you for helping to make our wedding day a literal fairytale. The day was so perfect and filled with memories that will stay with us forever – even the duck and pig poo!! We’re honestly so grateful to you and all the staff at South Farm – thank you
Emma & James - May 22, 2025
South Farm is the most incredible venue, with the most picturesque grounds, staff who genuinely love their jobs and food that you’d expect in a high-end restaurant!
From the moment we viewed South Farm, every single member of staff from house keeping to gardeners to event managers could not have been friendlier, politer and more helpful. None of our questions seemed silly (even when they were!) and nothing was ever too much of an ask.
South Farm have the most amazing indoor and outdoor spaces, you’re almost spoilt for choice as to where to have your ceremony, your drinks reception and your evening party. Every single detail has been thought out and they have not missed a thing. We even got to visit and have pictures with South Farm’s pigs on our big day!
The food at South Farm is insane. We knew it would be after our taster evening, but on the day, and after, we had so many guests raving about the food at the wedding breakfast and in the evening. Everything was cooked to perfection, and no dietary requirement was ever an issue at all.
The accommodation at South Farm is top tier, everything is clean, fresh and comfy. The bridal suite is set over two floors and made the perfect area for my bridal party and I to get ready. The romany caravans on site are a quirky addition to the venue that our guests loved.
The whole planning process at South Farm was personalised but stress-free. We were lucky enough to have Nikki conduct our planning meeting and then act as our event manager on the day. I can’t express our gratitude enough to Nikki for being so calm and collected and dealing with absolutely everything. We felt like royalty on our wedding day, nothing was too much or a problem – even cleaning mud from my dress with a baby wipe (thank you Nikki!).
We cannot recommend South Farm enough, everything is so well thought out but allows for everyone to have a unique and personalised wedding.
Eva & Robert - May 17, 2025
We had our wedding here in May 2025 and it exceeded our highest expectations. The venue was absolutely stunning, the staff (especially Evie, Sue, Claire, Christine and Becky) couldn’t do enough to help (even some eccentric requests), and the food was impeccable. Many guests told us this was the best wedding venue they had ever been to – and we couldn’t fault any part of our experience with South Farm.
Juliet & Sam - May 16, 2025
After the most magical wedding day, we are writing to express our deep gratitude to the incredible South Farm team for creating the perfect day for us. We’re sitting on our honeymoon reflecting on just how special last Friday was in no small part due to the care, attention to detail, and sheer brilliance of all of the team at South Farm.
From our first visit, we knew your special venue was the place for our special day. We were given an expert guided tour that allowed us to picture what our wedding day could be like, and from then until the big day, we were supported to make the dream a reality!
Throughout the planning process, over the last six months, we have been struck by how knowledgable, kind and attentive every member of your team has been. Whoever we bumped into on our visits was always friendly and couldn’t do enough to help. Our planning meeting helped us to cement the vision and we so appreciated the team’s expertise in pulling together the schedule for the day. This attention and care continued on our wedding day and all the guests remarked on just how organised and brilliant the team were.
Unsurprisingly, everyone loved the venue. We adored it and knew everyone else would too, but it really was the most perfect setting. The grounds looked stunning, the accommodation beautifully clean and comfortable and all the spaces used for our wedding just fitted the bill perfectly. We loved the intimate feel of the Old Dairy for our ceremony, the south of France vibes on the terrace for the drinks reception, and the romance of the Tudor Barn for our meal! We know that maintaining all these stunning spaces doesn’t happen easily and without a lot of hard work so a huge thank you to all involved. No one could believe how incredibly slick you all were at the changeover of different spaces and all of this just meant the day flowed beautifully, which was a real priority for us.
The food and catering was exquisite. People loved the canapés and I know those with dietary requirements appreciated being found and hand delivered their specialised plates. Thank you for accommodating our various requirements. The wedding breakfast was delicious! Everyone remarked on just how incredible it was, and despite being very full by dessert, most managed to squeeze some of that in too! Neither of us made it to the kebabs in the evening but they also received rave reviews all round! We had forgotten to sort a topper for the wedding cake and were very touched that your wonderful kitchen staff teamed up with our florist to decorate our simple cake so beautifully. These touches really did make our day all the more wonderful.
Our wedding day was expertly guided by Helen, who helped us feel at ease throughout. We felt in very safe hands as she guided us through the day, helping us stick to the schedule without ever feeling like we were being rushed. Sincere thanks to Helen for helping the day to run so smoothly, so that we could focus on the joy of celebrating our marriage with family and friends.
We were touched that so much of the clear-up had been done by the breakfast on Saturday morning, which again allowed us to wrap up this incredible experience by focusing on breakfast with our nearest and dearest. You’ve thought of everything and we couldn’t be more grateful.
Thank you so much for helping to create one of the most special days of our lives. We’re deeply grateful and can’t wait to see the photos to relive it all again soon! Thank you for providing the perfect backdrop to our wedding day – what a way to begin our married life together!
Karen & Harvey - May 10, 2025
I would like to say a massive thank you to South Farm. The people that work there are amazing and cannot do enough to help, from the planning stage (Michelle) , the day before (Nikki) and the unflappable ever present Haley on the big day. The whole team appear to be one big family and they look after you as if you are one of their own. They put you at ease allowing you to enjoy the happiest day of your life. Our guests couldn’t sing your praises enough. Also behind the scenes, the grounds looked beautiful, the food was delicious and the bar staff prompt and friendly, not forgetting the great standards of the housekeepers. It is a magnificent venue that has exacting high standards and anyone who has a wedding there will be overjoyed with the service, I know we were. It was a joy.
Clare & Keith - May 4, 2025
| Thank you to the whole South Farm team for making our wedding unforgettable and amazing. The venue is absolutely stunning and the whole team go above and beyond in making sure everything goes smoothly from the initial meeting to our wedding day. The communication from the team on what to expect and answering all our questions were quick and very helpful. I especially want to thank Hayley who was our Event Manager for our wedding day. She was absolutely fantastic. Thank you to all the catering staff for the amazing food and Claire for our breakfast the next morning. Thank you again for everything and making our day very special. Both Keith & I and our guest had an incredible day. |
Munali & Chris - May 1, 2025
Sunny & Ethan - April 30, 2025
An amazing day
Would like to thank the whole team at south farm for making our day so special and run so smoothly! It was such a happy day !
Georgina & Benjamin - April 28, 2025
| I don’t say it lightly when I share that South Farm is the perfect wedding venue, it absolutely is! We had the most incredible day and that was thanks to the amazing staff and all that South Farm as a venue has to offer. Not only is it a stunning location with so many beautiful settings and areas for incredible photos (both inside and outside!), all of the staff go above and beyond to give you the perfect day as well. Everyone was so kind, thoughtful and helpful throughout the whole planning process. I haven’t got married before and had a lot of questions through the wedding planning due to this, often feeling my questions may have been a bit silly, but the staff were always more than happy to help and so kind in answering my many questions! We were also so well looked after on the day, our event manager checked in frequently throughout the course of the day to check we were happy and if we needed anything. It’s a venue that has everything – beautiful scenery, stunning inside options, truly delicious food (which I’m still drooling over!), kind and helpful staff, comfortable and beautiful accommodation onsite, plenty of parking for guests and to top it off – farm animals! What more could you want! It was honestly the perfect day and we’re both so utterly thrilled that we chose South Farm for our special day. Thank you so much, for everything. |
Hannah & Gavin - April 27, 2025
A huge thank you to the South Farm team for making our wedding day such a memorable one.
From our first visit to South Farm, we knew it was the venue for us. As well as the stunning grounds, the team were so friendly, great communication and went above and beyond to help plan and execute our dream day. The tasting night was one to remember and got us excited for the wedding day.
On the day, an especially huge thank you to Michelle for coordinating. Everything went so smoothly and we didn’t have to think about anything which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy the day from start to finish. Thank you to the whole South Farm team – we know everyone all worked exceptionally hard in the background to make the day a success. The grounds and house were beautiful, food absolutely delicious and everything really was perfect and better than we could have imagined. Our guests felt absolutely spoiled and it was the most magical day for our wedding.
Ladan & Mark - April 18, 2025
We had the most amazing spring wedding at South Farm! From our first meeting with the team, we felt confident that they would be able to make our day special for us, and they really delivered! The food was exceptional – we had a buffet and myself (bride) and two of our guests had our own special gluten/dairy free buffet so we wouldn’t feel left out :) throughout the day our Wedding Coordinator continuously checked in with us to see how we were, if we needed anything and gave us our own platter of canapés! They also checked if we were cold when sitting at dinner (we weren’t at all, but it was so nice to be so looked after). The breakfast the next morning was delicious – we had an Iranian table (sofreh aghd) set up the night before and the team very kindly set it back up for us in the dining area so we could enjoy it which was really thoughtful! And it was great to just debrief and spend even more time with our close family and friends. The grounds and rooms were all stunning, we loved every moment. I recommend South Farm to everyone.
Hannah & Callum - April 16, 2025
Where do we start!!
Thank you for making our dream wedding come to life! From the moment i first saw the venue i knew this was the place i wanted to get married. From the grounds to the gorgeous Old dairy and Tudor barn, i knew this would be the perfect place for us to celebrate our wedding! Then we met you all and it just solidified it for us as your kindness and genuine love for your job shines!
Evie, you were the perfect wedding planner and nothing was ever too much trouble for you. Always going above and beyond to make sure it all went perfectly (which it did)! So a huge thank you to you as you really deserve it.
Also wanted to say thank you to the extremely kind member of your team (who i’m sorry to say i cant remember the name of) who drove all the way to biggleswade to get a security tag removed from my dads suit. Thats a new level of going above and beyond!!!!
The food was incredible, and even better than we remember from the tasting evening! We received so many compliments which we wanted to make sure gets passed back to the catering team.
As a venue, you all deserve the awards and recognition you get as you really are “Distinctly different” in so so many ways! I could go on forever but i will finish here with another huge thank you for making our wedding day all we could have dreamt of.
Amy and Matt - April 14, 2025
| We just wanted to say thank you so much for making our daughter’s wedding such a wonderful day. Amy and Matt were married on Monday 14th April and in Amy’s words – she wouldn’t have changed a single thing. The venue is just beautiful, everything ran so smoothly and the atmosphere was just what she hoped for. Thank you for all the hard work that must have gone in to making it such a lovely day. |
Amy & Sam - April 12, 2025
| We had such an amazing day last Saturday. The team at South Farm have been so helpful and attentive every step of the way and we never had any doubt that the day would run like clockwork! The food was incredible and I don’t think we’ll forget the muscovado tart for some time to come. We also wanted to ask you to say a big thank you to Evie, our Event Manager on the day. Evie initially showed us around at the start of last year and so we were really pleased that she was with us on the day! She was so helpful and attentive and we both felt incredibly well looked after. The bar staff and catering team were lovely as well and a real credit to the venue. |
Casey & Peter - April 6, 2025
Dearest South Farm Team,
From the moment we first connected with yourselves to when it was time for our day, each and everyone of you that knows us have stopped at nothing to make everything pure perfection for us. Thank you so much to housekeeping team for creating such a perfectly clean and inviting space for us and all our family members. To the Chef’s thank you so much for all the delicious foods, from the tasting menu right up to our wedding day. To the grounds team, oh my goodness it is all so beautifully maintained! Lastly thank you so much to each of the managerial teams and coordinators, you all have made us truly feel so welcomed and made an absolute fuss of.
All our love,
Casey & Pete
Lauren and Toby - April 4, 2025
| South Farm were amazing at helping us realise our vision for our day. We wanted a day full of joy and expression and they supported every single one of our crazy ideas, and even came up with some suggestions of their own. We had a magical day of laughter, song and dance, fully supported by all the staff. Helen the event manager was a magician, making sure everything was taken care of so we could focus on enjoying our day. |
Lauren & Marcus - March 19, 2025
The perfect day!
We had our day on the 19th March 2025 & we cannot express how perfect it was! From visiting south farm for the first time, to leaving the venue the morning after, the staff were incredible! On the day our wedding coordinator Nicky was just fabulous! If it wasn’t for her the groom & groomsmen would have turned up half dressed! She made the day run so smoothly & was so caring & attentive! We would just love to do the day all over again! THANK YOU ❤️❤️❤️
Chloe & Matt - March 7, 2025
We can’t believe a week has already passed and keep reliving moments from the day. Every member of South Farm staff contributed to making our day so special and personal. It really was perfect!
Special shout out to Helen for being AMAZING. Helen thought of everything and it felt like she could read our minds at times – we’d think something and it would appear/happen!! So welcoming, so lovely and so organised.
Another special shout out to all the members of staff (particularly Evie) who answered our emails – we asked A LOT of questions! Answers were always prompt, super detailed and normally predicted the next question we would have. We were always left feeling as though everything was very under control and stress free.
So many of our guests commented on just how beautiful South Farm was and our ceremony outdoors (we still aren’t over the weather letting us do that!). Thank you to all who keep the grounds look so gorgeous. Matt and I stayed after breakfast the next day to wander round – we just didn’t want to leave!!
Also, a quick shout out to a few other people who made our time so special – Emily, Nikki, Claire, Christine, Summer, and the whole kitchen team because the food was incredible. I’m sure we’re forgetting others who also contributed to giving us such a good experience, so thank you (and apologies!) to them too. We don’t think we will ever be able to say thank you enough for helping us to create the most perfect wedding day.
Nicole & James - February 16, 2025
| South Farm was the absolute perfect venue for us! From booking all the way up to the wedding day, we had unbelievable support from the staff, and felt comfortable to ask any questions regardless of how silly they may be!
When looking for a venue, we were initially impressed by South Farm’s focus on sustainability, especially with the home grown food and re-wilding land surrounding, which was an excellent location for pictures on the day. We were also very pleased to see a comprehensive price breakdown on the website. This meant we could actually calculate a more accurate cost, as we found many other wedding venues were not upfront about pricing and had many hidden costs. The accomodation was priced separately as well, which we liked as other venues we had been to visit forced us to pay for the rooms even if they were not being used. These combined meant that South Farm allowed us to be much more flexible with what we wanted/needed for our wedding. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and we did very minimal decorations as we believe the venue speaks for itself. There are so many areas on the grounds for photo opportunities on the day that it would cater to any couple’s personal style. The food was absolutely spectacular, and we were able to choose which food and wine we wanted from the menu tasting, which was also a wonderful evening. Our coordinator for the day, Helen, was absolutely incredible. She made sure the day ran smoothly and was able to help with any issues we encountered (which were barely any!). She also provided suggestions on flower placement and photograph locations, which we really appreciated and demonstrated the incredible expertise and dedication of the staff at South Farm. Overall, we would highly recommend South Farm to other couples, as it really was the perfect venue |
Heather & Latir - January 5, 2025
South Farm was the perfect wedding venue! Helen, our event planner and every single staff member made the day feel so special. The food was incredible, and we got so many compliments from the guests about it, saying it was the best wedding food they’d ever had! South Farm really made our day one to remember, and we couldn’t have more praise
Sophie & William - December 30, 2024
Wonderful day!
From the very first look around South Farm to the end of the wedding day we could not have had been more looked after and enjoyed every minute of it. It is the most beautiful venue and every staff member was fully invested in our day being the best day of our lives. We can’t thank you enough for everything you have done for us and we would recommend it to anyone!
Christina & Joseph - November 20, 2024
Thank you so much- we have all been on cloud nine since! Definitely one of the best days of our lives, at such an amazing and beautiful venue. We could not have asked for a better day!
All the staff we dealt with were lovely and very professional, and we’d both like to bring attention to how wonderful Nikki was throughout our day (and the months leading up to this!)
Lisa & Gary - November 15, 2024
Having finally returned back to earth (we have been floating for a few days!), we would just like to say a MASSIVE THANK YOU for making our special day so magical 😍
First of all, we would like to thank you for your impeccable planning from the beginning, right up to the day itself, no stone left unturned. You took so much of the stress away, and made us feel so safe in your hands.
Everyone at South Farm that we dealt with was so warm, kind, welcoming and helpful, and made us feel important. Absolutely wonderful staff at South Farm, it really is an amazing team 🥰
As for the big day itself, WOW! Helen was absolutely amazing. She kept everything running smoothly, whilst keeping me completely calm (I was a bag of nerves) and we couldn’t have done it without her. Obviously, it’s a team effort, and Helen couldn’t have done it without the amazing staff on duty that day, who were all fantastic, thank you so much ♥️
The venue is so beautiful, and we appreciate the effort that goes into keeping it looking perfect. The food was out of this world (but we knew that was never going to be in doubt), everyone is still raving about the marinated beef 😁
We hope we haven’t missed anyone out, this is a huge thank you to everyone. You totally surpassed all of our expectations, and it was such a wonderful day that we will remember for the rest of our lives (Gary suggested we do it again next year 🤣)
And to top it all off, I have married the man I adore, and having our wedding at South Farm was the icing on the cake.
Katy & Benji - November 10, 2024
| Thank you so so much for making Sunday the most incredible day, everything was beyond anything we could have dreamed of. We’re so grateful for everything everyone at South Farm has done for us this weekend but also in the lead-up, and especially everything you did to help make it the most joyous of days. All of our guests couldn’t believe the venue (maybe some of them will end up being future clients!!!) and were really blown away by the food. We’re so happy we made the brilliant decision all those months ago to get married at South Farm, you really did make the day what it was. Thank you so so much, |
Katy & Tom - November 9, 2024
A huge thank you to the whole team for all the hard work that went into Saturday, it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect if it tried. We had the best time and so did all our guests, everyone kept commenting on how beautiful the venue was, how good the food was and how amazing all the staff were so thank you so so much!
Tom has sent through a few preview photos and they look incredible, we can’t wait to see the rest!
Sarah & Simon - November 8, 2024
| The most amazing wedding venue! A truly beautiful setting, with lots of options for personalisation. Friendly and very efficient staff who do not leave anything to chance. Food is excellent and locally sourced. Combine that venue with DJ Mike (DJ), Lyndsay Challis (photographer) and Jack Childs (videographer) you will have the perfect wedding as we did!!!!! |
Kirstie & Jeff - November 7, 2024

South Farm was the first venue we viewed when looking for the perfect place for us to get married, we viewed another 5 venues and everytime we got back in the car we said to each other “ it’s nice but it’s not South Farm” so a huge thank you to the ladies in the office who worked through dates and numbers with me to help make our dream a reality!
Our day was so perfect! It went so smoothly and that is entirely down to you all. Throughout the day all our guests made comments to us about how incredible the venue was, how lovely the food was and how helpful and friendly all the staff were, this made our day so again thank you! We want to extend an extra special thank you to Nikki, she is incredible and really helped keep Jeff calm, she took all the stress away from the day and we didn’t have to think about any of the logistics the entire day and it just ran so smoothly. We were a little worried how the day would go as we didn’t have any trial runs but she advised all the groomsmen and bridesmaids on what to do and we just think she is total rockstar! It also brought a little tear to my eye when we came back to our room and found the lovely note/feather Nikki left for us to take home for our cat ‘Boo’ I believe it’s these personal touches that really give you the tag line ‘distinctly different’ We have gained some incredible memories and South Farm will hold an extra special place in our hearts, we will be forever grateful and we hope to see you all again soon. Best Wishes for all future weddings. |
Ashleigh & James - November 6, 2024
| God’s, this place is perfect! we chose south farm because the grounds are absolutely stunning! before our big day everyone we spoke to was amazing and helpful and just the best at getting every little detail perfect! they were so accommodating to my guests who had intolerances and were fussy eater but that was no issue to them, they sorted it right away. the day before me and my girls stayed and they were incredibly lovely and looking after us. on the day hayley was incredible, she helped us both through the day and made it so so perfect. she was an absolute angel and I couldn’t recommend her and the staff and this beautiful venue any more than just currently do! im so gob smacked at how great the day went with no hiccups because of how incredible the team are! everyone loved the venue and the food so much! thank you all for being exactly what we wanted and needed! you were all perfect! thank you! |
Hannah & Enpu - November 2, 2024
| We had a great day and our guests have raved about the venue and the food. We would like to say a special thank you to Evie who was absolutely amazing. She made us feel so relaxed and everything ran perfectly and we really couldn’t have asked for more. |
Molly & Scott - November 1, 2024
| From the moment we stepped into the main house and were handed some homegrown veg, we knew this was the place for us. Since going to an open day for South Farm nearly two years ago, they have been absolutely amazing. We booked a private viewing for the week after, and having Becky take us around and showing us everything about South Farm definitely sealed the deal, not that we needed much more convincing! As Scott says, it’s Becky’s fault as to why we got married at South Farm!
Every single person that we have spoken to in the last 18 months of planning have been incredible, polite, professional and just lovely. There is no question that can’t be answered by a member of the South Farm team and you can tell that they know what they’re doing. Mine and Scott’s wedding day absolutely exceeded our expectations, not that we were shocked because we know how amazing South Farm and the team are. There was not one single fault on our wedding day (not any that we were aware of anyway!) and we felt at ease knowing that everything was taken care of. We have had SO many compliments from our guests, saying how incredible the grounds and venue are, how good the food was and how attentive the staff were. A special shoutout to our wedding coordinator, Michelle. We can’t even begin to thank Michelle enough. She has been the absolute best throughout this whole process. We were both so happy when we found out she was going to be our wedding coordinator! She made sure everything ran smoothly on our wedding day and went above and beyond to make sure everyone was well looked after and comfortable. My Nan even wanted to say how kind and thoughtful she was to my grandad making sure he was able to see everything and was helping out during the meal. There was also a small hiccup with one of the bridesmaid’s dresses before the ceremony and Michelle knew exactly what to do and it was fixed within minutes! Our bridal party also said how amazing Michelle was and how they could go to her with any question and she would sort it immediately. We love you Michelle!! We could not recommend South Farm enough, it was our dream wedding and we’re so glad we picked you. You will definitely see us at an open day again because we need an excuse to go back!! |
Emma and Jack - October 31, 2024
| The most incredible day!
We got married at South Farm at the end of October this year and could not be more pleased that we chose to get married at this venue! From start to finish, the process was amazing and we always received prompt and friendly responses from every member of the team that we spoke too. At our initial meeting, we discussed a firm budget we wanted to stick too and this was always very respected and we felt that the cost was very reasonable for the service that we got! On the day, Nikki was incredibly attentive and helped our day to run so smoothly! I really hope we get the chance to attend a wedding as a guest at South Farm in the future as it truly is the most special and incredible venue! |
Joanne & Matthew - October 26, 2024
| Best. Day. Ever! 🥰 We viewed and booked South Farm exactly 2 years before our wedding day, so we could envisage how it would look at the same time of year, and it just so happened that the date we preferred was also our anniversary too. It also was the only place we looked at! We knew straight away it was the venue for us, and we knew nothing else would even come close, and it did not disappoint. The contact with the team at South Farm prior to the day was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble, and even if we thought it was a silly question it never felt like it was after talking to someone there, and when we say the team it truly is absolutely everybody you come into contact with, whether its the amazing housekeeping team preparing the rooms, any of the waiting staff or managers, even the chefs and kitchen staff waving at us as we had our wedding photos taken in the kitchen garden We were nervous prior to our planning meeting, wondering if we still had things to sort or things we’d not covered off. We had our meeting with Michelle and it was so much fun; every little detail was taken care of and nothing we asked was out of the ordinary, even down to us as the Bride and Groom having slightly different dessert options to our guests, as she said, it is OUR day! Even when we had some very last minute changes to guest requirements, it was no problem, and was sorted straight away without a hitch. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, with everything taken care of and co-ordinated by the wonderful Hayley. She seemed to disappear into the crowd but whenever you needed her she was just there in your eye-line and ready to help or guide you through. Honestly, we cannot thank you and the whole team enough, it far exceeded any expectations we might have had, and then some. So many of our guests also commented on the fantastic staff, the beautiful venue, and the food! The food was as amazing as we had expected. From the moment we left the pre-wedding menu tasting which is an event in itself, we knew it was going to be good and it did not disappoint! We would do it all over again in a heartbeat and wouldn’t change a single thing. We can only hope that someone we know will also get married at South Farm so that we can experience it all over again, albeit from the other side, otherwise we may just have to become professional wedding guests 🤣 it really was that good!! |
Erin & Iain - October 25, 2024
| Had the most amazing day at this amazing venue! Staff were so attentive both on the day and run up to the wedding, and it meant that we could fully enjoy our day with all our loved ones. The venue itself is stunning, couldn’t have asked for anything more! |
Agnieszka & Matthew - October 23, 2024
| I cannot express enough how amazing South Farm was as our wedding venue. It truly was the best day of my life, and I owe so much of it to their incredible team and the beautiful space they provided. Helen was absolutely outstanding, managing every aspect of the day with such grace and precision. She ensured everything ran perfectly on time, leaving us worry-free and able to soak in every special moment. From start to finish, not a single detail was overlooked, and I’ve never felt more at ease or well taken care of. The food was out of this world—honestly the best I’ve had in ages. Every dish was a masterpiece, and all our guests raved about how delicious everything was. The drinks were equally superb, complementing the meal perfectly. The venue itself was spotless, and the ambiance was magical. The way the lighting worked in harmony with the music created an atmosphere that felt straight out of a dream. DJ, Garry, was the cherry on top of a perfect day. He somehow managed to play every song I didn’t even know I needed. His choices kept everyone on the dance floor all night long, and I can honestly say I’ve never danced that much in one night. Every second was pure joy! Thank you, South Farm, for making our wedding day so extraordinary. From the thoughtful attention to detail to the impeccable service, you created memories that we’ll treasure forever. You exceeded every expectation, and we are so grateful for everything you did to make it all so perfect. |
Elena & Ian - October 20, 2024
| We just wanted to say thank you so much for all the support leading up to our wedding – and especially to Evie for supporting us on the day. We had the most amazing day and wish we could do it all over again! South Farm was the best choice we could have ever made – so grateful for you all and the gorgeous venue. |
Chloe & Daniel - October 16, 2024
| Best wedding venue ever South farm is honestly the best wedding venue. Not only are the grounds absolutely mesmerising but the staff are extremely polite and helpful. They go above and beyond for the couples getting married there and both me and my husband are extremely grateful to them for making our special day one that we will never forget. |
Carla & Ross - October 13, 2024
| South Farm is an absolutely stunning venue it was the first venue we looked at and loved it so much we didn’t look anywhere else. The staff were amazing throughout the lead up to our big day and were just as amazing on the day. Would highly recommend South Farm for the perfect wedding day |
Ploy & Alec - October 12, 2024
South Farm provided the most magical experience for our wedding. My husband and I loved that it felt like a beautiful rustic home hosting our wedding, not a corporate event space. This feel is reinforced by the friendly and accommodating team at South Farm. Everyone we encountered was so nice and would go out of their way to be helpful, from the event managers through to the kitchen staff and gardeners. They ensured the whole day ran seamlessly and was as stress free as possible. We are also incredibly grateful they found a way for our dogs to stay for the whole wedding unlike other venues that claimed to be dog friendly, but in fact only allowed dogs for a short photo window and wouldn’t even countenance any flexibility. Another reason we chose South Farm was the range of wonderful indoor and outdoor spaces that were all exclusively ours for the day. It meant we could rest easy that even if the weather wasn’t on our side the Old Dairy would still provide a charming indoor ceremony option (which it ended up being thanks to the British weather). It also meant there was minimal room turnaround faff disrupting the flow of the day unlike some venues where there really is only one room doing the heavy lifting, so to speak, for all parts of a wedding day. (The gorgeous Tudor Barn with its fairy light ceiling was an atmospheric setting for dinner and evening mingling, while the adjoining Horse Barn with its glass floor and lighting was perfect for dancing to the band, meanwhile my husband and I loved the cute library which was a lovely backdrop for photos.) Another aspect of South Farm that deserves a special shout out is the food! It was amazing and we had so many guests praise the food and say it was the best they have ever had at a wedding. Thank you so much, South Farm, for ensuring we, and our guests, just had the best day!
James & Alice - October 10, 2024
| Incredible Day, Incredible Venue! South Farm, thank you so much! We had the most beautiful and joyous wedding day, and we know that was down to the team at South Farm. They were always accommodating, insightful, professional, and no mad idea was too mad for them! You can tell that every single person loves working there; it shines through in the brilliant work they do. Every interaction, from the day we enquired in early 2022, to our wedding last week, has been exemplary. They really take the pressure out of planning so you can truly enjoy your big day. Our guests were absolutely raving about the venue from the moment they arrived, and they haven’t stopped talking about it since. The venue itself it absolutely unreal. From the barns to the gardens, it’s beautiful wherever you look. The service was second to none, and the food was unbelievable. We could happily live off nothing but the croquettes for the rest of our lives! A special mention to Nikki, who was our fantastic Event Manager on the day. She was an absolute superstar and made both of us feel so comfortable throughout the day. She’s a true pro and we’ll always be grateful for help. Thanks again, Nikki! And thank you to Evie, Emily, Michelle (and anyone else we may have forgotten!) whose brilliant organisation and communication made sure we didn’t lose our heads in the lead up to the day! Thank you again South Farm team, our wedding wouldn’t have been the same without you! |
Sian & Joe - October 6, 2024
| Everyone at Southfarm was amazing during to the lead up to make sure everything was sorted. On the day Hayley could not do enough for us, she was always there but never in an intrusive way. The staff at south farm went above and beyond, as it was a Sunday we opted for the roast dinner. The roast beef was phenomenal, everyone commented on how amazing the food was and the deserts just blew everyone away. The venue was truly beautiful. I’m so sad it’s over! We’ll be recommending to everyone. |
Jessica & Nick - October 5, 2024
| A huge thank you to the south farm team for ensuring we had the most amazing wedding day. It was everything we had hoped for and more. Thank you to Evie and Emily for your quick and helpful replies to all of our emails and questions, and an extra special thank you to Michelle who was absolutely incredible on our wedding day. We felt in safe, organised and fun hands and our guests all said how great Michelle was too. Thank you for making sure everything ran smoothly, we had the absolute best day. Thank you for making our wedding dreams come true, you really are the wedding experts. Thank you!! |
Adam & Stephen - October 3, 2024
| Stephen and I got married at South Farm in October 2024 and honestly, it was the best day ever. When we visit South Farm two years ago, we knew this was the venue for us, and it did not disappoint. The grounds were immaculate, the food simply stunning and the whole vibe of the venue oozes happiness, fun and love!!! While all the staff were incredible (they really were all fantastic), we wanted to say a very special thank you to Evie, our Event Wedding Manager. She was simply outstanding and went above and beyond in every way during the planning but also on the day itself. She was so personable, attentive, on the ball with all the details and made our day even more special. It was the little things she did, like saving use some canapés (we missed these due to photos), and keeping us stocked with drinks when we were going from one greeting to the next, that really made her service fantastic. We were actually sad when she had to finish her shift at 10pm and couldn’t stay until midnight!!! Thank you Evie; you left a special place in our hearts 🧡💚 Our guests had the most incredible day and we have received so many beautiful comments from them about South Farm. Many of them told us it was the best wedding they’ve been too, due to the service, food and wonderful atmosphere (and of course of us)! There are honestly not enough words to express our thanks to South Farm for our magical day and this will be a memory we cherish forever. We just pray that someone we know has a wedding at South Farm in the future so we can return and reminisce our special day! Big hugs and thank you to you all. Adam & Stephen |
Demi & Tomas - September 30, 2024
Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special we definitely picked the best venue to tie the knot😊
Eloise & John - September 25, 2024
| A fairytale come true! There is absolutely no place like South Farm. We loved every single second of our incredible wedding day and have nothing but amazing things to say about them. We wouldn’t change a thing. The south farm team were insane, food was insane, planning process was insane and the beauty of our day was just absolutely beyond. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We’d go back to South Farm everyday! They have our heart and will always be an extended family to us. We can’t thank everyone there enough for making our day a fairytale! |
Robyn & Gearoid - September 16, 2024
| Where to begin!? South Farm gave us an incredible day that exceeded our hopes, dreams and expectations! It was the first venue we visited and we knew from the get go that it was going to be our choice. The entire team is so professional, thoughtful, caring and kind. They made us and our guests feel like we were the only Wedding they were organising even though we know we weren’t. They provided an authentic and bespoke experience that was tailored to our wants and needs and went above and beyond to ensure we had the most magical day! Everything including food, incredible varied function spaces, accommodation, and small touches is outstanding and so special! Our entire experience was seamless and our guests left raving about it being the best venue and the best wedding they have ever experienced! A special shout out to our event co-ordinator Helen, who helped the day flow perfectly. Thank you South Farm! |
Taiya & Jenna - September 15, 2024
We wanted to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude for all the hard work, dedication, and care you put into making our wedding day absolutely perfect. From the beautiful venue setup to the seamless coordination, every detail exceeded our expectations. You truly made our vision come to life, and we couldn’t be more grateful. Your professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail ensured that we could relax and enjoy every moment, knowing everything was in expert hands.
The venue looked absolutely stunning, and every element was exactly as we had envisioned (and more!). Michelle, We felt completely at ease knowing you were there to ensure everything ran smoothly. Your dedication, patience, and warm support were so appreciated, and it made our day unforgettable not only for us but for all of our guests.
Our guests were blown away by the stunning atmosphere and impeccable service, they all were impressed by the beautiful setting and flawless execution. The day was magical and we’ve received so many compliments thanks to you and your team.
Thank you once again for being such an important part of our special day. We will forever cherish the memories created at South Farm. Thank you for making our dream wedding come to life. We are forever grateful!
Wendy & Jon - September 12, 2024
What can I say, we had the most wonderful day and I said to Jon this morning “ can we do it all again tomorrow please”.
Our guest haven’t stopped talking about it and saying how wonderful a day it was. Many have said it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, which is all credit to you and the wonderful team at South Farm. Thank you so much!
Georgia & Jade - September 5, 2024
From the moment we arrived at South Farm for our first visit, we knew it was where we had to have our wedding. Every detail of this venue is perfect—from the immaculately kept grounds to the adorable animals, incredible food, and exceptional staff. It’s truly a dream come true.
Every member of staff greeted us with a smile and couldn’t have been more helpful. They were always polite, quick to respond to our many emailed questions, and genuinely supportive throughout the entire process.
We’ll be forever grateful to Jane and the entire South Farm team for making our wedding day in September 2024 unforgettable. The morning started off overcast and threatening rain, but Jane knew how important it was for us to have our ceremony outside in the beautiful summerhouse. She kept us updated on the weather and gave us the option to decide just an hour before the ceremony—it turned out perfectly! Thanks to Jane and the team’s effort, we had our dream day.
And the food? Absolutely INCREDIBLE. Every supplier we met with before the wedding raved about the food at South Farm, and our tasting night only confirmed it. Choosing what to serve was a challenge because everything was so good! On the day, every guest commented on how fantastic the food was—it exceeded all expectations.
We truly cannot put into words how thankful we are for everyone at South Farm. It’s an extraordinary place filled with extraordinary people who clearly love what they do. If you’re on the fence about booking here, don’t hesitate—book it now!
Georgia & Jade
William & Sarah - September 4, 2024
Sarah and I got married at South Farm at the beginning of September and had a truly fantastic experience with South Farm. Their staff are phenomenal – nothing is too much trouble. They always answer the phones and emails very quickly and provide cheery and knowledgeable replies to all our questions. We really enjoyed our show around and tasting sessions – such a fun opportunity to taste a lot of dishes in one evening and experience what a wedding at South Farm is really like. The venue itself is stunning and so much care is taken over every single detail – not a weed in the garden, everything was meticulously prepared for us with lots of thoughtful details. There are so many different options for where to have your ceremony and reception, meaning the day is tailored to your tastes and number of guests. We had so many lovely comments about the venue, the staff and the delicious food! Many people said it was the best wedding they had ever been to! Helen, our coordinator on the day was fab – nothing was too much trouble and she quietly ensured everything ran like clockwork and regularly checked in to see if we needed anything. Thank you South Farm – you are an incredible venue. We want to do it all again now!
Emma & Aaron - September 2, 2024
Hi team,
We hope you are all doing well.
We just wanted to drop you an email to say thank you for the lovely Christmas card, it was a really nice surprise to receive it and a lovely reminder of our time with you back in September.
It was also great timing as we received our full picture gallery back from Bea last week and we thought you might be interested in seeing a selection from it. Please find a few attached which you are welcome to use if you like.
We haven’t yet managed to leave a review for you but will now we have the photos back as they really capture the beauty of the venue and how special everything was.
Once again, a huge thank you for hosting our wedding in September, it was a dream day and we so wish we could do it all over again! Everyone said how stunning the venue was and won’t stop telling us how amazing the food was whenever we see them! A special shout out to Nikki, our coordinator, who took care of everything and was so calm and caring throughout (even when the stress of running a little late in the morning got to us all!). We really appreciate everything she and you all did to make the day so special and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend South Farm to anyone and everyone!
Thanks and Merry Christmas!
Emma and Aaron Williams-Ardern
Charlotte & Phil - September 1, 2024
We just wanted to say a massive thankyou to everyone at South Farm for making our wedding day so perfect and magical. You all worked so hard to make everything run smoothly and we are very grateful. In particular I just wanted to thank Emily for being our amazing event manager for the day. She was so friendly and helpful and kept checking in to make sure we were both okay which meant alot to us and really put us at ease when we were both feeling nervous. Also wanted to mention Hannah and her amazing team in the kitchen. Your food was outstanding and everyone mention how great it was especially the little onions on the plates and the beef was cooked perfectly. South Farm is such a beautiful place and we knew from our first viewing that this was the venue we had to get married in. Thankyou again for looking after us on our special day.
Nicky (MoB) - August 29, 2024
“I am just calling to say thank you to Evie, she was attentive and exceptional, and many of our guests have commented on how good she was. All of your staff were fantastic, we had a wonderful day so I wanted to phone and say a personal thank you”
Rosie & Sam - August 29, 2024
We both just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone at south farm for making our day so special. From the moment we visited the venue we knew that it was the venue for us and going to be a special and beautiful day but it honestly went above and beyond our expectations.
Throughout the planning process you listened and answered all our questions and provided advice so promptly. Nicky was so knowledgeable during our planning meeting and as a team you always provided solutions to any of our problems or ideas so effortlessly. You were so incredibly sensitive and flexible when it came to my uncle being unwell and for that my family and I are so grateful.
On our wedding day we had Evie as our co-ordinator and cannot thank her enough. Everything ran so so smoothly, and she was so on it! She was excellent with our flower girl and all of our guests. So many people have commented on what a fantastic job she did at co-ordinating it all. It was just incredible to see all of our ideas come to life!
We also just want to give a huge thanks to all the people who worked at our wedding – everyone was so friendly and made us and our families feel so special. The kitchen staff were excellent and we along with all of our guests were honestly blown away by the food! It was incredible!!! Please pass on a huge thank you to them!
We had a magical time from the moment we arrived to leaving breakfast (in my wedding dress!) and it all honestly felt like a dream!
South farm will always be such a special place to us and we hope we can return at one of your open days in the future :)
Nick & Helen - July 22, 2024
My wife and I have just returned home after spending 22nd July with you on the occasion of our son Ben’s wedding to Aimée. I feel compelled to tell you what a magical day it was and how superbly you managed the whole event. The venue was stunning, the arrangements were seamlessly smooth and your staff were unfailingly pleasant and efficient – as well as being incredibly discreet. Our food at the wedding lunch was delicious and our accommodation (in the Parrot Room) was top notch. I really don’t know how you do it! Thank you all for a completely marvellous day!
Very best wishes to you all
Adam & Bridie - July 20, 2024
I just wanted to say a huge thank you for the most perfect wedding we could have wished for on Saturday. It exceeded our (already high) expectations by some distance and everything you – as a venue – could have controlled was absolutely immaculate.
Hayley was exceptional, she seemed to be everywhere and nowhere the whole time! She filled us with so much confidence that everything would be dealt with discreetly and professionally. I think her greatest skill of all was making me feel relaxed about the fact that we were behind schedule and making sure everything slotted perfectly around the thing that was of such high importance to us and beyond her control – getting married outside.
We do also know that for us she was the figurehead of a big team who were all pulling their weight to deliver. The food was stunning, the service impeccable, the place was sparkling clean, everyone was so friendly. It feels so rare at the moment to have an experience where, not only can you not fault anything, but that you have your expectations continually exceeded. It felt like anything that could be done to make the day better, was done – even the things that you couldn’t possibly think of.
I would also like to mention Claire at breakfast, she had such an effervescent character every time we saw her that really contributes to the entire aura of south farm.
I hope the above goes some way to describing how completely blown away we were with the entire South Farm experience from Day 1. Please also know what a significant impact you’ve had on the most important and special day of our lives.
Thank you so much,
Elliot & Claire - July 6, 2024
We had a wonderful day and wish it never ended! Our guests have been praising how fabulous the venue, food, service and everything was on our special day at South Farm (which echoes how we feel). It really was our perfect day. Hayley did a brilliant job of keeping our day running smoothly and making sure we were happy throughout the day. The staff were incredibly helpful for us in the morning when we were setting up all our decorations and games, and staff were so helpful the day after returning things my Nanna had left in her room, and breakfast was fabulous too!
Thank you again for helping us have our perfect day! We will definitely recommend South Farm!
Lara & Matty - June 29, 2024
So sorry it has taken me so long to write a review. Life has flown by since our wedding day and I wanted to spend some time putting into words how amazing our day was!
We were heavily set on marrying in Sorrento until we visited South Farm. We had a quote drawn up and were ready to sign on the dotted line but family urged us to visit at least 1 venue in the UK before we committed. Looking at venues online, the images of the big yellow house were the only ones that drew us in, and so we booked a tour one Sunday (thank god!). As we walked around the charming farm on a dreary English afternoon, with each room we both began to imagine our big day in this venue. As soon as we both stepped inside the summerhouse, we could see ourselves contently reading our vows feeling isolated and content with our guests a stones throw away on the other side of the water. A small tour round to the barn, we realised how little we’d have to do to wow our guests as the beauty of the ‘naked’ barn spoke for itself. Once we sat down with Jane to discuss food options, we were well and truly sold.
Everything from that day was smooth sailing with South Farm. The only thing we worried about during the planning process, was the fact that we were so laid back and unstressed. With the help of Evie and Michelle, everything fell into place perfectly because we really trusted their advice. They both felt like good friends! Evie even sent updates on flowers blooming through spring leading up to our day to get us excited. We couldn’t wait to have a spring wedding on such carefully tended grounds. Everyone we met from South Farm on the numerous tours with family and friends made us feel at home, which was lovely. The team never made us feel like we were ‘just another package wedding’ the whole process felt unique and personalised.
We would recommend booking South Farm as your wedding venue just for the tasting evening! We couldn’t wait to have a chance to stay at our wedding venue before the big day and taste almost everything they had to offer. What an experience! We were already set on the Asian fusion feast, whereby guests would share courses we chose from lazy susans in the centre of the table. We loved the thought of guests bonding over good food and wanted our friends and family to dine how we often do at home. Our guests have not stopped talking about how incredible the food was on the day. ‘Best wedding food ever’ is a phrase we’ve heard at least twice daily since the wedding 2 weeks ago! Everyone has been raving about the beef massaman and the salmon red thai curry and could not believe the portion sizes. The white chocolate pave to finish was also a massive hit (shout out to Hannah)! We both hope we get the chance to eat this food again one day, I honestly cannot find the words to fully express how happy we are about our wedding day food- unforgettable!
Evie, you were magnificent on our wedding day! You made me and Matty feel at complete ease. We are so happy we got to have our ceremony outside in the stunning gardens and know that had we booked a different venue that probably wouldn’t have been the case given the typical British weather. Thank you for planting a sausage for us- we hope you get a good harvest of Cumberland’s from it next year! We utilised the entire venue and the day flowed effortlessly. All of the smaller details did not go unnoticed and made us feel so special. From the helping hands on the morning of the wedding, through to the saved portion of evening food and wedding cake in our room at the end of the night. I actually feel emotional writing this review because its over but I’m full of thanks because our wedding day couldn’t have been anymore special. You’re all truly talented, caring and outrageously fun.
From the very bottom of our hearts, thank you, thank you, thank you! You made our wedding dreams come true.
P.s. we even had a guest tell us our wedding day has made them want to propose to their partner, just so they can get married at South Farm!
Hilary & Ian - June 15, 2024
Dear Hayley and staff
Ian and I just wanted to say a BIG thank you for helping with such a wonderful day on Saturday.
It was such a great party and your professional staff helped to make that possible.
From the room cleaners and bar staff (sorry they had to clean up so many broken glasses….I am putting it down to all the rugby players!) to the chefs and to you nothing was too much trouble. Such professionalism and pleasant staff go a long way to making the day enjoyable and we much appreciated it.
Thank you again.
Amy & Carl - June 14, 2024
I don’t even know where to begin to thank you. I didn’t tear up on the day as much I tear up right now, just thinking of how incredibly grateful I am towards all of you. What a beautiful journey what a team. What a wedding!!!
Special shout out to EVIE for keeping up with all the drop outs (and drop back ins) and multiple planner / table changes and the last min nut allergy. That was fun! Please thank the kitchen for me.
Special shout out to DEBORAH for making sure everyone important to us had a comfortable bed!! You went above and beyond.
Special shout out and much love to NIKKI for being our very first encounter with SF many months ago…Although we fell in love with SF immediately, we knew after meeting Nikki that we would be well taken care of by a team of wedding wizards! ❤️ so glad we got to give you a hug the next morning.
Shout out to everyone else who took my calls, replied to emails, managed the finances, the bar, the setup, the cleaners, the servers. It takes an incredible team to pull that off. Every detail was clock work.
Now onto Michelle. Jirrrre! You were such a boss and i was just incredibly proud to show you off as my wedding co-ordinator. Every time you entered the room, I was immediately at peace. You are what made me so calm on the day. That was calm I just wanted to hug you all day.
It was crazy, the weather kept you on your toes, the back tables with their fancy champagne and bad manners, the fun change I threw in because ppl got off their seats before the last speech – you just handled it with such professionalism and poise. Even though I am sure inside you wanted to tear your hair out! Haha I was so impressed by the table service too.
The outcome?
The best wedding we and most of our guests have ever been to. Our guests had the BEST DAY! Everyone was smiling from start to finish! So many ppl have commented on how incredible you were, Mich. We all wanted to be your friend at the end. Shot gun!
Anyway, I could honestly go on and on and on…
Yes, we will be one of those couples who come back for our anniversary- carl still wants to have a pic with the pigs.
Well done team. You nailed it. Thank you.
All my love forever.
Mrs Amy and Mr Carl Griffiths ♥️
Alex & Emma - June 9, 2024
We just wanted to say an enormous thank you to you all for helping us to have the most special wedding day! It really could not have been any more perfect.
We fell in love with South Farm the first day we visited, and we honestly could not have chosen a better venue in which to celebrate our big day. We wanted to say a special thanks to Michelle for helping us with our planning meeting and a HUGE thank you to Hayley for being an absolute star on the day itself. Her attention to detail was unmatched. We are especially grateful of the limoncello spritz’ she organised for us during the Wedding Breakfast (which we believe was also Michelle’s suggestion!).
A big thank you also to the kitchen staff – we have had nothing but compliments and glowing reviews about the food – which we think is evidenced in the fact that there was barely anything left!
The wedding really was the best day of both of our lives (to date!) and we really could not be happier with how it all turned out.
Megan & Rob - June 8, 2024
Thank you to the incredible team at South Farm for helping us to realise our plans and deliver the perfect wedding day!
The venue is absolutely stunning inside and out, with so many wonderful photo opportunities and hidden areas for your guests to explore.
Our wedding planner – Michelle – went above and beyond to support us throughout the planning process, making a complex process feel easy and finding ways to fulfil all of our requests to really personalise the day and make it our own. When our wedding planner was unwell just before the big day, we were introduced to Nikki who did a fantastic job in picking it up and really understanding the vision, to the point that it was just a non-issue on the day.
The outdoor ceremony in the summerhouse was breathtaking, honestly like something out of a dream. Despite a rainy morning, the staff reassured us that it would be okay, waited until the last possible moment to set the chairs out to avoid the rain and we had the perfect sunny outdoor ceremony and drinks reception. I know they can’t control the weather, but they certainly managed it well!
Our guests had the most amazing time, and we had so many compliments for the venue, the numerous bars, and the way they were ushered throughout the day – nobody felt lost or like they were waiting around.
The food was perfect! South Farm catered to a huge range of dietary requirements for the wedding breakfast, and our family still talk about the evening food – the street food noodle bar was the highlight of the day for some people!
Finally, we had the most amazing evening reception with live music in the Horse Barn. It is such a gorgeous, unique space for the dancefloor that allows guests in the Tudor Barn, either getting a drink or having a rest, to still feel involved through the ingenious glass wall panels. The Horse Barn was big enough for a party, but small enough that it never felt empty.
Thank you to the whole team at South Farm for the perfect wedding day – we would recommend this venue in a heartbeat. If only we could do it all again!
Charlotte & Dan - May 25, 2024
Thank you so much for your below email. First of all, we had an absolutely amazing day at South Farm on Saturday, the weather was beautiful, and the venue looked stunning! Our guests all commented on how amazing the venue looked.
From start to finish, everyone at South Farm has been brilliant and there really are no words that can describe just how fantastic you have all been, right from the start, to the day itself, we couldn’t have asked for any more.
We would like to say thank you to Sue (organising things on Sunday morning), my sister (Dan’s side) managed to break her metatarsal on the Saturday night skipping on the dancefloor having had a few too many Peroni’s! On Sunday morning, she had a dizzy spell and fell to the floor at breakfast. Sue came to help and was brilliant, she put my sister at ease & made sure she left the venue comfortable. So thank you so much for this, Alesia (my sister) is very appreciative.
Lastly, we must make a special mention for Evie! Evie managed the day incredibly, if anything didn’t go to plan, we never knew because as far as we were concerned the whole day was better than we could ever have imagined! Evie did such an amazing job, not just for us, but our guests also commented on just how efficient and accommodating Evie was, nothing was too much trouble, everything flowed beautifully. Evie even got dragged on to the dancefloor by Lawson (our 3yr old little boy)!
Once again, thank you so much for giving us the most perfect day.
Danielle - May 15, 2024
Wow… you guys are amazing! I’m Lucy’s older sister (and maid of honour) and I just wanted to reach out to thank you all!
Firstly, thank you to Hayley… you were incredible start to finish! You helped me with everything, from presentations to ABBA dances! You made the day so easy and we all had an amazing time!
Secondly, thank you to the wider team. Anyone I approached with my crazy requests etc were more than happy to help or find me someone that could help! From allowing us to access the venue early to practice our dance, to helping me find left over noodles for Lucy and Caleb to have a midnight snack before bed! Every request was dealt with, with a smile on your face (possibly because you thought I was crazy) and nothing was ever too much trouble!
On behalf of the happy couple, my parents, myself and my fellow bridesmaids, the best man and the entire wedding party… thank you for making Wednesday the day it was, it was just magical, we could not have asked for a better day/experience! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! You’re all amazing!!
Ian & Amanda - May 15, 2024
We wanted to write and thank you for the most wonderful day at South Farm for Lucy and Caleb’s wedding.
From the moment we viewed the venue some two years ago to breakfast the day after the wedding, everyone at South Farm has been absolutely fantastic.
On the day itself, Hayley was an absolute hero, there every step of the way, helping, guiding and ensuring every last thing went to plan.
We were so lucky with the weather, the forecast didn’t look good but just knowing we had a Plan B all set up and ready was very reassuring but in the end so glad we could see them tie the knot outside as Lucy had always dreamed of since she saw the setting.
All the staff on duty that day were an absolute credit to you, it enabled us to enjoy our daughters special day without any concerns or worries – Everything was under control and managed to perfection.
Thanks again to everyone at South Farm for a truly memorable and wonderful day.
Steph & Joe - May 13, 2024
To everyone ay South Farm
From the bottom of our hearts we would like to say the biggest thank you for allowing us to host our wedding with you and everything you have done to make it the most amazing day of our lives.
We would like to say a big thank you to Evie who was always so kind and understanding when my job meant I (steph) wasn’t the quickest at replying to emails, and was willing to help in any way to make my life easier. We would also like to say a special thank you to Helen, who made the day run so smoothly, always made sure we were ok and was a kind calm face when the nerves kicked in!
We know there are so many other people who work tirelessly behind the scenes who’s names we do not know, to make our wedding day as amazing as it was, so we want to say a huge thank you to them too! Everything was perfect and exactly how we imagined it.
You have the most beautiful wedding venue and we feel so lucky to have been able to have our special day there. We cant thank you enough.
Emma, Seb & Luca - May 12, 2024
WOW You really do such an amazing job. Every detail is perfect and there is nothing I could find fault on. Thank you for all your hard work. A particular thank you to Michelle in events planning for answering my never ending emails & calls before our big day.
Thanks again !
Jan and Chris - May 10, 2024
To ALL the South Farm Team
Thank you so very much for making Amy and Toms wedding day so perfect. It was the most amazing wedding and all the guests had the most fantastic time.
South Farm is such a magical place. Thank you too for arranging the weather and the Northern Lights!!
Your attention to detail is second to none. Helen, thank you for making sure everything happened to time-not an easy job I’m sure.
Thank you again
Amy & Tom - May 10, 2024
Thank you sooooooo much for everything!!! Yourself and the team at South Farm are absolutely outstanding and we cannot thank you enough for all that you did to make our day the most amazingly magical day EVER!!! We absolutely could not have asked or hoped for more (even ending with the Northern Lights!!!! )
We have received sooo many compliments from our guests saying that SF is the BEST venue they have ever been to, the food was outstanding and all the staff just wonderful… we honestly are still so overwhelmed by it all and can’t stop looking at the amazing photos taken throughout the day just trying to relive every single moment!!! It’s been a very lovely bubble to be in!!
Eleanor & Tom - May 5, 2024
To the whole team at South Farm,
We just wanted to say the biggest thank you for giving us the most amazing wedding day! It was so much better than we could have imagined, helped by the lovely weather but mostly due to all your team’s hard work and dedication.
Everything ran so smoothly and seamlessly, and it was so lovely for us to not have to think about the running of the day and be able to focus on enjoying ourselves! It was also the small touches from you which made it so special. We particularly appreciated being saved our own plate of canapés, and a plate of wedding cake for us to enjoy at the end of the night!
Having good food at our wedding was really important to us, and all our guests said the food was brilliant, from the canapés, to the beef main and the noodle bar it was all a huge hit.
We also wanted to say a massive thank you to Hayley, our event manager. You were so calm and collected, proactive and organised, and also so kind and helpful to us and our guests and we appreciate it so much.
There’s nothing we would change about our day and want to pass on the biggest thank you to you all.
Emily & Simon - May 3, 2024
We had the most amazing day, despite the rain never letting up!! We were so happy with the service you provided. Understandably, we were limited with the weather, but the team ensured everything ran smoothly – we couldn’t believe just HOW smoothly! Helen was amazing. She was always checking in, and always spotted scenarios that she could help us out with, alongside helpful suggestions. I’m so thankful to her for offering to move our lanterns through to behind our top table, as the photos would not of been the same. I was at that point where I wasn’t able to think clearly with decision making so I really appreciate her conscientiousness and attention to detail! There aren’t any negatives to give you! The guests loved the food (particular favourites with everyone was the harissa chicken and macaroni cheese!) and adored the venue. Thank you to you and your team for your help throughout this whole process. You have felt like friends I can rely on.
I just wish that we could live it all again!
Sarah & Taos - April 27, 2024
Thanks so much for everything you did to make our special day possible. It truly was the best day of our lives!!
The team, the venue, the preparation, the food, the drinks, the rooms…. Everything was perfect.
We would love to do it all again – 1 year anniversary party too soon ??
Lots of Love
Bex & Tobi - April 21, 2024
Evie, We don’t even know where to begin to say thank you! You made our day the most special perfect day of our lives! We really could not have done any of this without you! You were so incredible helpful, getting all of us to the right place at the right time and I could not of asked for a more perfect wedding coordinator! We really appreciate you doing everything you could to make our wedding go ahead outside! We even had some sunshine! You have been so accommodating to all of our needs and helping organise every part of our day! You really are a credit to South Farm and we truly believe that it wouldn’t be the place it is without you there!
We are so gutted that all the planning and hard work of 2 years is all finally over! But honestly we wouldn’t of changed anything about our special day!
Everyone has told us what a beautiful day it was and how gorgeous the venue is! We are trying to persuade some of our engaged friends to book their wedding here!
We would also like to thank the fantastic chefs and catering team! The food was absolutely delicious and the guests could not stop eating!
Our Wedding Day will always be remembered by us as the most perfect magical special day and that is all thanks to you.
Alexandra & Daniel - April 13, 2024
Michelle, Thank you to you and the entire South Farm team for the perfect day yesterday. It was truly amazing from start to finish and we felt so relaxed and cared for. Thank you for all your help and support in the lead up to the day and for making the day itself go so smoothly. And for the bubbles in the room!
We had endless compliments about how stunning the venue was, how lovely the staff were, how amazing the food tasted, and how it was the best wedding people had ever been too. And of course DJ Gary was absolutely brilliant!
So thank you so much for the greatest day!!
Sophie & Blake - March 24, 2024
To the Amazing Team at South Farm
We just wanted to say the biggest thank you for everything that was done to give us the most wonderful wedding. From the day that Becky showed us around, to the planning meeting with Helen, the phenomenal food tasting, the many autopilots, to the big day itself, we completely fell in love with South Farm and knew it was the perfect place for us.
Our guests were full of so many compliments about all the staff and how lovely and helpful everyone was. Many said it was the best wedding they had ever been to! Thank you for helping us to feel like we didn’t have to worry about a thing. The day was perfect and we will be forever grateful for every single moment. Words will never be enough. We hope that South Farm is home to many many more weddings for years to come!
Special shout out to the brilliant Michelle! She was the perfect event manager. Her energy and enthusiasm matched ours completely. It was like having another close friend to the wedding. The guests loved her and we are so grateful.
Seb & Emily - March 17, 2024
Thank you again from myself and Emily for yesterday. We had the most perfect day and we’re so grateful you and the rest of the team made that happen for us. We felt so well looked after and were able to enjoy our day without any worries.
All the guests were so enthusiastic about the service and venue as a whole, it was so nice that people enjoyed it as much as we did. Everyone raved about the food. It was the only venue we looked at before booking and it was definitely the right decision. We’ll be sure to leave a glowing review and we hope to visit again in the future.
When you have a chance – I believe we have a credit balance with you, if you could look into this for us please. Thank you in advance.
Jay and Sara - March 2, 2024
We want the whole team to know that we have the absolute best day ever! I honestly didn’t think it could be that good, but it was. The whole process from start to finish has been pretty seamless and you all really pride yourselves in doing everything you can for us, and that totally stands out.
Thanks to Summer for selling it to us on our first visit. This was the first place we viewed as a venue, and we only saw one other after. We knew as soon as we walked out! Thank you Nicki for answering my relentless questions and helping us out on Friday. Michelle, wow, you clearly do this 6 days a week. Flawless management of the whole day and your laid back attitude really suited us and all our guests. You really took the stress away from us on the big day (mostly) and you knew exactly when I needed a tequila. It’s clear you lot all love your job and I think that’s one of the reasons South Farm runs so smoothly and is such a beautiful place. Please extend our thanks to the rest of the team including the chefs, bar team, and of course Claire, who I also met on the first visit as she tried to help us jump start our car.
Really can’t thank you enough!
Emily & Dom - February 10, 2024
We just wanted to say a massive thank you or helping us have the best day of our lives. Right from our first show round with James, we knew this was the wedding venue for us. It ticked all our boxes and more. From then every single team member we dealt with were so helpful and friendly.. The food tasting was like nothing we had seen before, so much tasty food, a night we will always remember. Big shout out to Evie who from our planning meeting made us feel like our wedding was in safe hands. From answering my many emails and questions to being there on the day to make sure it all went smoothly. Another shout out for Luke for staying late with us the day before the wedding when we ran behind getting everything set up for our big day. You honestly have got this wedding thing nailed and we are gutted we can’t do the whole day again. Hopefully we will get the pleasure of being at your wonderful venue in the future for other weddings and events.
Rochelle and Tom - December 14, 2023
We’re still basking in the glow of what can only be described as the best and most magical day of our lives. From the very first moment we stepped foot on the grounds to the last dance of the evening, our experience at South Farm was nothing short of phenomenal.
We would like to extend our gratitude to a few exceptional individuals who played crucial roles in crafting our unforgettable celebration:
Our journey with South Farm began with a warm welcome from Summer, the first friendly face we encountered during our initial visit. After our appointment, we looked at each other in the car, and without uttering a word, we both knew this was the venue of our dreams.
Emily, who conducted our planning meeting, deserves special mention for putting our minds at ease and building excitement for our big day. Her meticulous attention to detail and responsiveness to our queries laid the foundation for the remarkable experience that followed.
A heartfelt thank you to Nikki, our Event Manager, whose exceptional efforts left us in awe. Nikki’s genuine care and impeccable timekeeping ensured our day unfolded flawlessly. Her commitment to ensuring every aspect of the celebration ran seamlessly contributed immensely to the overall success of our special day.
You Christine, and Evie, always so helpful and responsive over email, making our planning process seamless. No query was too big or small for you, and your dedication to ensuring our vision came to life did not go unnoticed.
Finally, the incredibly talented chefs deserve accolades for the amazing spread they prepared. We received countless compliments from our guests, with some declaring it the best wedding food they’ve ever tasted. Considering we’ve got quite a fussy eaters in our family – not a single complaint was heard!
South Farm has etched itself forever in our hearts, thanks to the collective efforts of every staff member involved in making our day perfect. From the warm greetings from the housekeeping team when I first arrived, to the attentive care throughout the day, everyone at South Farm went above and beyond to ensure not only our happiness but also that of our families, friends, and suppliers.
We wholeheartedly recommend South Farm
Tracy – TME Photography Herts - December 13, 2023
My heartiest thanks to you and the entire South Farm team for welcoming me with open arms at Heather and Ross’ wedding on 13th December. I was truly touched by your hospitality and the genuine warmth throughout the entire experience.
Every interaction I had with the South Farm staff was marked by impeccable manners, genuine smiles, and a willingness to go above and beyond to make my visit memorable. Their enthusiasm and passion for South Farm were infectious, and their dedication to providing exceptional hospitality was truly remarkable.
These gestures, coupled with the overall warmth and care extended to all guests, created an atmosphere of genuine hospitality that left a lasting impression.
Thank you again for extending your warm welcome and for creating such a special experience for me. I will be sure to cherish the memories of my time at South Farm and will highly recommend you to others.
With utmost appreciation,
Yasmine & Steve - December 5, 2023
Thank you so much for hosting our wedding at your beautiful venue! It was the most perfect day!

Thank you so much from us both for all that you did for making our wedding day such a success! The whole planning process was so enjoyable, we have enjoyed coming in for the meeting, seeing the beautiful venue again and saying hi to everybody.
The decorations, the food (shout out to the kitchen) the smooth running of the day… was all fantastic and we are so grateful.
Thank you Nikki for managing us all so fabulously – mostly keeping the boys on track!. It was really a surprise to see the bubbles back in the room later on.
Thank you so much for all that you did!
Nicole & Kayleigh - November 11, 2023
We are writing to express our deepest gratitude for the extraordinary efforts and impeccable execution that made our wedding day an absolute dream. From the outset, the vision we had for our special day was not only realised but exceeded by your dedicated and talented team.
Every detail, no matter how small, was executed with precision, and we couldn’t be more appreciative. Our guests and family had an incredible time and felt exceptionally well taken care of. We are confident that our wedding day will be a topic of conversation for many years to come.
We want to extend our special thanks to Michelle, who played an integral role in ensuring the smooth flow of events. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and warm character put us at ease throughout the entire process. Michelle went above and beyond to meet our needs, calming our nerves and ensuring that every moment was perfect. We believe her outstanding contributions deserve recognition, and we would like to express our gratitude personally.
A heartfelt thank you is also due to the talented chefs who delighted our guests with the delicious pies. The food was not only a highlight but also became a talking point among our guests. We appreciate your flexibility and willingness to adapt to our preferences, making the dining experience truly special.
The entire team, from planning meetings to the execution on the big day, made sure that everything ran seamlessly. The picturesque grounds, beautifully set tables, enchanting lights, and overall ambiance created an atmosphere that can only be described as perfect.

Thank you to your kitchen team because everything was fantastic and delicious A very special thank you to Hayley as well, the day was very smooth and she fed us really well!! We love her so much when we saw her bringing us a drink or a plate of food!!
South Farm was the first and only venue we have been to and we knew we have made the right choice. We wouldn’t have this amazing wedding without you guys!
Thank you once again :)
Rich & Megs - November 6, 2023
Dear Helen and the whole team at South Farm
What can we say … you have been amazing from start to finish and helped us create a magical day which we never wanted to end. Your helpfulness, kindness and meticulous planning and communication left us relatively stress-free throughout the whole planning phase. The staff on the day were incredible and so many guests commented on how friendly and conscientious they were.
South Farm will always hold a special place in our hearts.
With love Rich & Megs
Emily & Owen - November 5, 2023
We wanted to say a massive thank you for making our day so special. We had so much fun and couldn’t have hoped for a better wedding day or smoother running of affairs.
Michelle was utterly wonderful and made us feel very relaxed and reassured whilst also bringing a really positive and fun energy. The food was incredible, as many of our guests commented on the day. We absolutely loved the dessert with the pistachio ice cream (thank you!) and also really appreciated how your chefs’ accommodated dietaries without compromising on the flavour or quality of the food.
Whilst South Farm is a stunning venue in itself, it was great to be able to relax knowing we were in the hands of true professionals; it’s clear all staff work hard to ensure everyone having a good time and we can’t thank you enough!
Reverend P. Spillett - October 25, 2023
Dear Nikki and the whole team at South Farm,
South Farm Wedding Venue more than lived up to expectations for our Grand-Daughter´s wedding! The beautiful grounds, so well maintained, were a joy to walk around with our younger Grandchildren, showing them the pigs/piglets, sheep too, and the ponds, providing also a fantastic settings for copious photos of the happy couple, family and friends. Now the professional photos are available, I am in awe of the Gardening teams attention to detail, hard work, and skills. The Parrot suite was amazing, reminding us of the wild parrots flying in and around our village, The high standards of the House staff could not be faulted in anyway, not that we would, no, everything and more made our stay comfortable, thank you all so much! As for the wedding, the ceremony, every aspect prepared to a superb and thoughtful standard. The celebratory meal after was brilliant, as a coeliac I was amazed at the person centred attention – ensuring no cross-contamination in my Gluten Free dietary needs, this, for me, does not happen often when away from home, and, for once, I was able to relax and eat with confidence indeed! The Catering team are a credit to South Farm, and staff attending behind the scenes and front, I could see from the top table, all family and friends were enjoying the very high standards reached, not only for the celebratory meal, the evening one too, the Paella was in the class A plus plus!! With-out exception all staff around the grounds, and with-in each area inside the Venue, were so friendly, we felt like living the dream! Our Grand-Daughter and Grand-Son certainly could not have surpassed South Farm when selecting their wedding venue, no, not for many miles!! From our hearts to each of you at South Farm, thank you very much indeed for all your amazing care to detail, hard work and setting such high standards! A truly remarkable Venue, a superb experience and now a memory we shall never forget. I highly recommend South Farm.
Grace & Ethan - October 10, 2023
Thank you so much to all the team especially to Evie our co-ordinator on the day! We had the most amazing day and several guests said how amazing all the staff and space was. All the food on the day was also fantastic! It was such a perfect day we had the best time as did all the guests! Huge thank you to Evie for all the help and for keeping the day running smoothly!
Courtney & Ryan - October 4, 2023
Thank you so much for making our wedding day so special. We literally could not have asked for any more. You are all amazing!
Suzie & Dan - September 29, 2023
Dan and I just wanted to send a quick email to say thank you so much for making our wedding day run so smoothly – everyone we’ve spoken to said that it was a gorgeous venue, and they all commented that it was the best wedding food they’d ever had. To be honest, the marinated beef was the talk of the night????
Helen did a fantastic job of quietly and calmly ensuring that everyone was where they needed to be at the right time – always available if we needed her, but never intrusive. The same applies to all the South Farm staff – it’s really impressive how everyone just quietly comes in to do their role, and disappears again without intruding. An incredibly professional but personal team!
Basically it was the most perfect day, and even the weather played ball
Thank you all again
Emma & Jack - September 20, 2023
I would like to thank you and your team for making Emma and Jack’s wedding so perfect. Evie was absolutely incredible and ensured we had everything we could possibly need. Her organisational skills were second to none and she kept us very calm.
Everyone said South Farm was so beautiful and they couldn’t get over the food, they all said it was the best food at a wedding they had ever had.
A big thank you from us!
Chloe & Cody - September 18, 2023
South Farm was the perfect venue for our special day. When we saw it the first time we knew it felt right – not only was it the undeniable beauty of the venue itself but it was the feeling we got from every single person working at South Farm. The team made us feel so at ease, were friendly and professional and attention to detail was second to none. We can’t thank you all enough South Farm
Mr & Mrs Perella-Askew - September 16, 2023
We just wanted to say the biggest thank you to Michelle for Saturday. It really was the best day of our lives. We are sooooo grateful for everything you did. You were always there, one step ahead with everything you thought we would need. The day ran so well and all our guests commented on what an amazing venue it was and how it was just the most fun from start to finish. Thank you as well for being so thoughtful with Megs, my parents are so grateful. Think my mum tried to message South Farm on Instagram to say a thanks to you. The food was absolutely delicious. Just so happy with everything and we can’t stop thinking about it.
Zoe & Neil - September 14, 2023
Thank you so much for everything you did before and on our wedding day, the whole team is amazing and everyone helped to make our day magical, we will never be able to thank you enough, the day was perfect and the memories will last a lifetime
Tom & Sarah - September 4, 2023
We just wanted to say a huge huge thank you for making our day so special.
Helen you were fantastic, everything ran so smoothly and we were particularly thankful for the canapés and ice cream on such a hot day! Thank you
Thank you to everyone else at South Farm who has made our planning, set up, and day so much fun. From Emily answering every email to Helen, Claire & Sue on the day, the Paxman family, and everyone else in between.
The wedding breakfast & all the food was incredible! A big thank you to the catering team.
Our guests did not stop telling us how perfect & pretty the venue was, how it was the best wedding food they had ever had and how amazing and friendly the staff were. We can’t thank you all enough.
Jess & Kane – Videographers - September 2, 2023
We recently had the pleasure of filming Hope & Alister’s wedding at your beautiful property – I’m sure you know the story and we were drafted in last minute, but we were never made to feel like that! As soon as we arrived at South Farm, we were greeted with smiles and made to feel part of the team/gang/family and we wanted to say thank you for that.
The property itself is absolutely stunning but a huge thank you to the fabulous Hayley for keeping us up to date on everything that was happening throughout the day, making sure we were fed and watered and ensuring we were happy and having a good time – and we weren’t even guests at the wedding! It was very clear to us that the team at South Farm love weddings and love their job roles and it was an absolute joy to work with all of you along with the very talented Bea!
Thank you for the most wonderful day, and hopefully we will see you all again soon!
Jess & Kane xx
Sophie & Amir - August 30, 2023
We would like to say a massive thank you to each and everyone of you from when we first looked at the venue up till the minute we left this morning. You have all been amazing nothing was too much! I would like to say a bigger thank you to Evie she was absolutely amazing. Everything was on point she made both myself and Amir feel stress free and at ease immediately. She was brilliant with each and everyone that attended. Our compliments to the chefs and the people serving the food there was so many compliments and it was amazing. You all made the day perfect and we wouldn’t have had it any other way.
Thank you all again
Sophie & Matt - August 18, 2023
We cannot honestly thank you enough for our amazing wedding on Friday.
Everything was what we had hoped for and more.
I know you can’t control the weather but even that played ball just in time too!! I was so determined to have the ceremony outside and it didn’t disappoint!
Our own expectations and of our guests were far exceeded! Everything ran smoothly from start to finish and the food was so very delicious and left our guests wondering how the kitchen was able to deliver so many plates and the quality and temperature be perfect; so please pass this onto chef and team.
Helen you were simply awesome, so super helpful, patient and everything I needed and more!
Everyone left, including ourselves, totally in awe and very happy.
All those involved in various changes and admin were always helpful, polite and accommodating.
It was very clear how cohesive you all are as a team and this is another part of what makes South Farm so special!
Fran & Mat - August 16, 2023
On behalf on Mat and I, we just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and your team. We couldn’t have wished for a more perfect day – everything ran smoothly and from start to finish,it was amazing.
Can we give a huge shout-out to Hayley who looked after us and our guests amazingly on the day. She was as cool as a cucumber and conducted herself in a really professional manner, at the same time as making us feel at ease-hard to do when nerves are running high!
Another huge thank you to the kitchen team. We had so many compliments passed on about the food – everyone savoured every mouthful and everything we ate was delicious.
Again, thank you all so much for making our day so perfect in every way.
Anna & Chris - August 5, 2023
We just wanted to say a massive thank you to all of the team at South Farm, especially Hayley for making our wedding yesterday so incredibly perfect. The day was absolutely faultless, it ran so smoothly and it was all down to you guys. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day and we received so many compliments about how kind, caring, helpful and professional all of the staff were. Everyone was so attentive and happy to help. We would recommend you all 1000 times over to anyone. The food was incredible so a huge thank you to the kitchen team too! This is the best wedding venue ever! Huge thank you again, it was everything we could have ever dreamed of and more.
Will & Jenni - August 2, 2023
We just wanted to extend a massive THANK YOU for all of your help and support on our wedding day and in the lead up to it! We are so appreciative of everything you guys did for us. A massive highlight of wedding planning for us was the menu tasting and all of our guests commented how fantastic the food was! It really is outstanding!
We could not have imagined a more perfect venue to be married – everything was perfectly done and it really is the most magical and beautiful place. We were blown away with all of the staff’s kindness and helpfulness to us – everyone we encountered made us feel so incredibly special.
In particular, we would like to send a special thank you to Hayley. She is a super woman! Hayley was amazing on the day and she did everything to take all of the pressure off us both and as a result we didn’t have to worry about anything! Because of her we were able to enjoy the day to its fullest and she made it absolutely perfect! We cannot thank her enough for everything she did.
We would also like to send a big thank you to Phillip. Not only was he extremely warm and welcoming to us and all of our guests, but we are especially grateful to him for his friendliness towards Will’s mum Sally. She was absolutely thrilled with her dried alliums and vegetable trug. It means so much that you made her time at South farm so relaxing and happy for her. She truly had the best time and we really appreciate you doing that for her.
Jess & Dan - July 28, 2023
We cannot thank you enough for helping us to have the most perfect day. Throughout our whole wedding planning process the one thing we never doubted was the venue !
On the day Helen made sure it ran like a military operation and catered to all our requests – like making a cheese less pizza for the groomsmen!
She offered advice and listened to us without ever rushing us and ensured we were always happy!
Our guests said the food was the best wedding food and steak they’d ever eaten and our groomsmen were sad there were no left overs for polishing off as a result! Aside from the food all our guests were so blown away by the amazing grounds and of course loved the pigs! We couldn’t have asked for anything more. It was utterly perfect!
Thank you
Charlie & Dom - June 17, 2023
Thank you so much for being the best wedding venue ever! We fell in love the spaces immediately and we’re still in love with it now!
We’re desperate for a reason to return! Particularly for some more of your amazing food.
Everything seemed to flow so smoothly and felt so calm and magical. We truly had the best day ever! Thank you Emily for coordinating our day- you were fabulous. Everything was fab.
Love and thanks
Kelly & Martin - June 9, 2023
Before we go away on our honeymoon we just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for making our wedding as perfect as it was on Friday (9 June).
From the moment we visited South Farm we knew it was the one and we could not have picked a more perfect wedding venue for our special day.
All the staff have been incredible from the get go but we would like to give a special thanks to:
- Jane, our event manager on the day. Your diligence and professionalism was second to none and you made us feel at ease from the outset. Nothing was a problem and everything ran as perfectly as it could.
- The kitchen team. Wow!!! The food was absolutely incredible. We have had so many compliments about it from our guests!! We had a lot of dietary requirements but nothing was too big or a problem and our gluten free guests have even said this was the best gluten free food they had ever had at an event – they were blown away with it!
- The waiting staff and bar team. Your team were such a credit to you. It was an extremely hot day and they worked tirelessly throughout making sure everyone was topped up with drinks and taking great care of our guests. They were all so friendly and thoughtful – really looking out for us – thank you.
- The groundskeepers – the venue looked absolutely beautiful on the day and perfectly maintained.
- The cleaning crew. The place is always spotless and whenever we have visited prior to our day the cleaning crew have always been so friendly and thoughtful, answering any questions and letting us have a look in rooms around them as they work. What a special team you have.
- Emily for planning the day with us in January and running through our planner. You were fabulous!!
- The wonderful smiley lady that runs and leads the breakfast who we have seen on many occasion (and have never quite caught her name). We’ve visited on a few occasions and she has always been exactly the same, happy, kind and helpful! She really looked after us the morning after our wedding and we are beyond grateful.
I am sure we have missed off more but honestly we are just so happy and still on such a wedding high!
We feel very sad we now don’t have a reason to visit again haha!
Mr & Mrs Hench - June 3, 2023
We had an absolutely incredible day and we are still on our cloud 9 bubble from this!
I’m sure you hear many brides and grooms say they had the perfect day, but with everyone at South Farms help it really was a little slice of perfection!
Leading up to the wedding Erica has been absolutely amazing! She is an absolute credit to south farm! During our planning meeting she helped us both feel so at ease and really helped us feel that south farm had our day under control! She even made sure to put special measures in place for my grandma which my entire family noticed and appreciated, thank you so much!
I (very silly of me) didn’t catch the lovely lady’s name who was cleaning the bridal suite, but, she was so lovely and kind on arrival and the next morning was so excited to hear how our day went which was lovely!
All of the lovely waiting staff were fantastic!! My granny was very impressed that when they cleared all the plates it was so quiet and seem less! We cannot thank you all enough as well as your fantastic bar staff who would have worked a long day to help us have our perfect day!! ????????
As for Michelle, if I could thank her every day for the rest of my life it wouldn’t be enough!! She was incredible on the day! She was 5 steps ahead of everyone, even my mum which can be a tricky job to do! Our day ran without fault down to her! Her calm and laid back attitude deffinatly helped me when I began to feel anxious over certain points in the day. She was always there with a calming voice saying that she had already sorted it and everything was in place! If you could please pass on mine and Hugo’s thanks to her! She was a fantastic wedding planner and she helped our perfect day come to life! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you!!
Thank you to everyone at south farm! You really did make our wedding dreams come true!!
Hannah & Sam - June 1, 2023
Firstly, thank you SO much for yesterday to all the team at South Farm.
Everything was perfect and we loved every minute of it. The guests have all been telling us how amazing they thought the food was. Helen was wonderful and everything ran seamlessly.
Chloe & David - May 27, 2023
The last couple of days have been a total whirlwind but we’d been meaning to write an email to say a HUGE thank you to all the staff at South Farm for the most wonderful day.
I don’t think we can put in to words how truly amazing it was. Everything ran exactly to plan and it was just the perfect wedding day.
We can’t speak highly enough of everyone working at South Farm. From the first time we looked around the venue to the morning after the wedding, everyone has been fantastic. Michelle and Evie on the day ensured everything was taken care of, even things we hadn’t thought of, and importantly kept us topped up with drinks throughout our busy day. Lots of our guests have commented on how attentive the staff were and how the meal service was seamless even though we had a meal choice. The food was all absolutely delicious!
The band we employed also wanted me to pass on their thanks to Michelle and the team who they said were legends. ☺️
Sadly one of our guests was taken ill after the meal, but the staff dealt with it very professionally. She was well looked after and medical assistance was called for her. We’re grateful for this.
Jennifer & Matthew - May 18, 2023
You gave our daughter Jen & new son-in-law Matt the most amazing wedding day. The whole day was perfect in every way. Thank you so much
Emily & Ben - May 13, 2023
South Farm was the most perfect wedding venue, it’s absolutely stunning rain or shine, 24/7 365! We had the most wonderful day filled with laughter and fun and everything flowed so smoothly and effortlessly, it was so lovely to not have to worry about anything. The food was just incredible as well, we had the fusion feast and I’m going to have to convince some more friends to get married at South Farm so I can have it again as it was all so delicious. All our guests commented on how great the venue, the staff and the food were. Particular thank you to James who looked after us all day and made sure everything ran smoothly!
We had DJ Gary in the evening who kept everyone dancing all night, the dance floor was full from the first dance to midnight and we barely left the dance floor as the music was just so great!
It was everything we had hoped it would be and more????
Jean Barcock, Guest - April 28, 2023
To the staff at South Farm
A big thank you to you all for your help to me at Leanne and Davids wedding
All of you went the extra mile, being kind and considerate to me in my weakness (heart problems). Providing me with glasses of water, offers of a blanket (I was chilled from time outside), checking regularly on my wellbeing, escorting me to my seat at the table and getting food for me. Thus I wanted to write and thank you all.
It was a great blessing to me to be able to be able to attend and share Leanne & Davids celebration which was made possible by your care and support. Keep up the good work
Mr & Mrs Holland - April 21, 2023
We would like to thank you for making our day more perfect than we could have even imagined it ever being. From start to finish all your staff were so attentive, nice and professional and kept the day flowing beautifully. A big shout out to Helen for making the experience entirely stress free, we never felt stressed or rushed and were able to just enjoy the day. Thank you Helen and the rest of the team for all you did we had the best day.
Mark & Diane Saxton - April 12, 2023
We just wanted to say a huge Thank You to all the team and staff at South Farm for making Alice and Jordans wedding on the 12th April so very special.
From the first visit right through until we left the day after, everyone was so helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. So many guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to and we felt exactly the same ourselves.
The venue is just so stunning inside and outside so the weather didn’t spoil anything about the day.
Thanks again to you all.
Joe & Celia - April 1, 2023
Firstly, we just wanted to say thank you again. The day was really special, well-run and the food was delicious. All our guests had a lovely time and we’ve had comments that it was the best wedding people had been to (which is down to you guys!). It was our photographer’s first time at the venue and she also commented how well thought out everything is at South Farm. Please pass our particular thanks to Michelle who was a real star as event coordinator on the day!!
Adam and Sarah - March 20, 2023
I just wanted to thank everyone so much at South Farm for making our wedding so perfect.
Helen was fantastic at keeping everything on track without us ever feeling rushed.
There was a small panic in the morning that we might not be able to get married outside but you were so accommodating and set everything up so quickly just in case the registrar said yes. And she did! First outdoor wedding in Cambridgeshire this year, lucky we had a fabulous Icelandic registrar!
The grounds were stunning, as were all the event rooms and the accommodation, everyone has said it’s slightly bittersweet that it was such an amazing day but we can’t come back and experience the food etc.
And the food! What can I say other than it was impeccable, the canapés were delicious and everyone loved the fact they could have multiple choices for dinner, and could go up again!
My coeliac Auntie was so excited that she even got to have a baguette in the evening.
Our bartender (I’m so sorry I never got his name, he had dark hair and was maybe 30?)
He was serving us at dinner as well. He was brilliant, incredibly friendly, even checked he was making drinks to peoples liking!
Everyone working during our day were incredible, the few I spoke to were extremely helpful and attentive.
I think I’m running out of adjectives to describe how wonderful you all are, but everyone has had something nice to say about South Farm and most of the comments have been all different things people noticed or experienced.
All I can say is I could never understand why people would want to renew their vows but after our day at South Farm I’m sure it’s something we will be back to do!
Thank you all so much.
Felicity & Joe - March 17, 2023
I had the great pleasure of coming to South Farm for the wedding of my daughter (Felicity) and her now husband, Joe.
The wedding was held on March 17th & I would like to ask you to please pass on my thanks to everybody involved on the day. Everything was amazing! I would like to highlight the food in particular. This was by far the best food I have ever had at a wedding. In fact, it was probably one of the best meals I’ve had anywhere! Many others have made the same comments to me. Please pass on my sincere thanks to the chef(s) on that day and, of course, everyone else.
Stacey & Saul - March 12, 2023
South Farm is a great venue for Jewish weddings. Every one of our guests commented on what an amazing stunning venue it is and how it’s so different to the normal (London hotels) venues of most Jewish weddings.
We always knew we wanted something different and we could not be happier that we found South Farm.
It really is distinctly unique. And a special venue and will forever be special to Stacey and I now.
And not just the scenery and animals and the barns – the people as well. Everyone of you!!
Tanya & Oliver - February 14, 2023
I just want to say a massive, huge thank you for our wedding with you. It was just incredible from start to finish and surpassed our expectations by far! I knew when we first visited the farm that it was the place for us. The relaxed, homely atmosphere (alongside the wonderful aesthetic) made us instantly fall in love. I didn’t, however, realise just how perfect our day would end up being.
I want to give an individual thank you to Hayley, who is clearly very passionate about her job and was just absolutely incredible. Nothing was too much effort for her, she took complete control of the day and we didn’t need to worry about anything! Honestly, I can’t thank her enough. She’s an absolute asset to you ☺️
From the little touches of the girls touching up my train and telling me I looked beautiful to someone always making sure I had a drink! It was just perfection and easily goes down as one of the best days of our lives.
All of our guests have absolutely raved about the venue, staff and the unbelievable food (I believe you had enquiries from some of them ????) and many are still talking about it now!
Thank you for giving us the best possible start to married life. I’m just so happy we chose you and so sad it’s all over!
Charlotte & Andrew - February 12, 2023
The day was everything we had hoped for and more.
All our guests had a great time and they all commented on how beautiful the venue looked and how amazing the food was.
We have nothing but good feedback to give. It was so helpful having Hayley with us for the whole day, making the day run as smoothly as possible and allowing us to enjoy our special day. Also, having the wedding planning document with timings well in advance of the day helped us to understand how to day would work and so useful to share with the wedding party. The food tasting was another particular highlight, allowing us to sample all the food on offer rather than having to choose blindly from the menu. Everyone at the event was extremely helpful and everyone was extremely accomodating when we asked about customising the starters. We are so grateful to everyone at South Farm for all the efforts on the day and leading up to it
Amelia & Jack - January 21, 2023
Thanks to everyone at South Farm for making our wedding day so amazing.
Thank you to Emily for getting all the details set into stone and for putting up with all the questions and awkward requests.
Thank you to Hayley for making the day run so smoothly and for keeping us in the loop at all times and for looking after us so well. Once I saw you had it in hand I wasn’t stressed at all.
Thank you to the chefs, waiting staff, cleaners and gardeners, everything you guys do makes the venue what it is. A truly amazing venue.
Everyone said how much they enjoyed it, and we think there were a few girlfriends giving hints!
Thank you all so much. Amelia & Jack
Andy & Holly - December 31, 2022
A HUGE THANK YOU for our incredible wedding on NYE 2022!!!! I cant actually get over what an awesome night it was and this is basically all down to the incredible organisation of you all. We were so lucky to find you and wish you all the continued success of your wonderful business.
THANK YOU SO MUCH….
With all our love and so many thanks
Andy and Holly
Amelia & Jonathon - December 9, 2022
We just wanted to say thank you very much for making our wedding day so special. We really did have the most magical day – everything was perfect – all of our guests said how amazing the service was and everyone loved the food .
The sun even came out for us in December so we couldn’t have asked for anything more !
Special thanks to Helen for keeping everyone organised on the day and to Erica for her help in the lead up.
Mr & Mrs Wilkinson - December 2, 2022
Firstly we would like to thank you ALL so so much for making our day so special.
We would also like to give individual thanks to:
Michelle for showing us around SF back in October 2020 and for all of your help from then onwards.
Emily for holding our planning meeting, helping us with ideas and going through every bit of detail to make sure we knew exactly where we were at with everything.
Helen for being our Event Manager on the day, you were absolutely amazing and we can’t thank you enough for all your help throughout our whole wedding day. We felt so relaxed and didn’t have to worry about a thing! You nailed it ????
Claire for greeting me and my bridesmaids in the morning, making us tea, coffee and answering all my random questions!
To the staff who got the Bridal suite ready nice and early so we could have a chilled morning while we got ready – that really helped the girls! We felt very relaxed and didn’t have to rush as we had plenty of time.
To all of the office staff for dealing with our questions, helping us finalise our planner and everything else over the last 2 years. We are very grateful for all the time and effort you put in to help us.
To all of the bar staff, chefs, catering staff, background staff, gardeners, front of house, every single one of you involved on the day – you honestly gave us the best day ever!! We haven’t got one single thing to complain about, we are so so happy with everything. The service was spot on, the food was incredible (could eat it everyday), the grounds are so beautiful, SF is amazing, the whole day was the most relaxed and fun day we could have asked for! We didn’t have to ask for anything. You all went above and beyond and we are truly so grateful.
And finally DJ Gary, a massive thank you for your fab set – we danced the night away with our family and friends – everyone was happy with the music and enjoyed themselves! You played exactly what we wanted and we would highly recommend you!!
We really can’t thank the team at SF enough, we appreciate you all and the effort that went into our special day. We are now hoping some friends or family members might get married at SF so we can come again ????!! You guys are the best and deserve all of your awards!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!! ❤️
Kirsty & Alan - November 28, 2022
I wanted to write an email to express our gratitude for helping organise and ensuring the best day of mine and Kirsty’s lives.
The day couldn’t have gone any better, the weather, the food, the venue. It was an utterly perfect day for us both and our families and I want to extend my gratitude to Hayley.
She was an absolute star and helped make sure the day went smoothly and was AMAZING. The chefs, the bar stuff, the house keepers, were all amazing and it is clear from every guest who commented on the amazing staff and venue.
I couldn’t recommend South Farm more highly and a good friend who attended said that they will be looking at available dates for their wedding. Thank you all for making our most special day, as perfect as we could have ever have hoped.
Please extend our gratitude and comments to all of the team.
Sarah & Dan - November 19, 2022
Dan and I would like to say a big thank you for making our day so special on Saturday.
A few highlights of what made it so special and it starts with the wonderful Summer. Summer has always been so attentive, helpful but also so friendly and happy for us that she was truly like a guest (in my eyes) than our event manager! And I mean that in a she just felt part of the party as we bonded, not that she acted like a guest haha ????
The bridal entrance was smooth, the confetti shot, the group photo! The transition to the wedding breakfast, speeches and lastly the sparkler shot! At no point in the day was I worrying about the timeline of the day and at no point was anything missing! The waiting staff and the staff servicing the bedrooms were the kindest and so helpful. The food was absolutely delicious, we received so many compliments about how tasty and well put together the dishes were! Breakfast was also yummy and whoever set the horse barn up for breakfast, it was super cute and such a nice touch!
The grounds of South Farm are simply beautiful and we are so happy that we got to have our wedding there! Thank you so so so much!
Jennifer & Duncan - November 14, 2022
We just wanted to take the opportunity to say a huge thank you to the team at South Farm for the best wedding day we could have dreamed of on Monday 14th November 2022.
Firstly to the organisation team who always responded to our emails within a day. We felt reassured that the team knew what they were doing and had our best interests.
Thank you to the operation staff behind the scenes. The venue, bedrooms and gardens were so clean and beautifully maintained. It was lovely that everyone said hello during our visits and on the day. And the lovely chatty lady at breakfast who made sure no one went home hungry.
Thank you to the kitchen and front of house staff who produced wonderful food and drinks. So many guests commented on the taste and presentation. Also thank you for accommodating our dietary needs in an understanding way.
Finally a huge thank you to Hayley (whom everyone including my mother got confused with being me as we look alike and our mannerisms also similar, so I am told).
Hayley gave our first show round on the open day in January 2022. It was useful to walk around the venue and learn about the order of the day and the options available to us. Her warm and honest approach meant we booked literally the following day.
On the day of the wedding she was so calm and unflustered. Nothing was too much trouble. Many relatives commented on her professional approach and appreciative of her guidance throughout the day.
Our Yorkshire terrier Rosie was cared for like a princess, kept warm by the fire. Hayley even dried my toes with a hair dryer after walking across the damp grass for our photos.
We are forever grateful to Hayley, the rest of the team and all the recommended suppliers we used (Izzy Wild, DJ Gary, Julie Cambridge and Jon Spanyol).
Mr & Mrs Anderson - October 14, 2022
We just wanted to send an email to thank you for making Friday the best day of our lives.
From the first ever meeting we had with Michelle, we knew that this venue was something special, and that this was where we wanted to get married.
Following on from that first meeting, the support we have had from Erica at our planning meeting, Emily for the administration (and helping me sort out the favours!) and an extra huge thank you to Helen for being the most amazing coordinator. She was so professional, yet warm and friendly – she made sure everything ran smoothly and kept us in check when we were running behind schedule which was hugely appreciated, as I seemed to lose all concept of time on the day!
The hospitality team did an amazing job in turning the rooms around so quickly, you run a very tight ship! The chefs food was incredible, and it was a pleasure to thank them personally the next morning. The grounds looked amazing, the gardeners and team that care for the animals are unsung heroes, as we wouldn’t have such beautiful photos without their hard work. All of our guests said that the waiters and waitresses were so helpful and prompt, and I have had so many messages saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to. The breakfast in the morning was very appreciated after a few drinks the day before, and I am grateful to have received some extra hash browns, and an extra sausage for Matt (although perhaps that was meant to be a secret!)
We’re completely aware that wedding season in 2022 has been manic for the industry, just looking at the calendar I can see how booked up you are, and I am in awe of the team’s energy and dedication – I’m not sure how you do it! You have probably lost count of how many weddings you have seen, but you still made us feel so special and unique, and we are so appreciative.
South Farm will always hold a special place in our heart, and we will be recommending you to all of our friends and family.
Lots of love
Laura - October 13, 2022
Just wanted to send a quick note, to thank every single member of staff that was helping at our wedding yesterday, you were all amazing, and should be so proud of how smoothly and amazing you guys were, with making sure everything went just amazing.
Also a massive thank you to Summer who made our day totally stress free and just even more perfect so thank you so much.
We had so many compliments on the venue/food/barns and everyone said South Farm is just stunning so beautiful.
A massive thank you again
Karen & Peter – Bride’s Parents - October 8, 2022
Just a short note to say thank you for all your hard work with planning and providing an awesome day for Sophie and Jacks wedding!! Everything about the day was perfect. Thank you
Sophie & Jack - October 8, 2022
I would like to say how fabulous the South Farm team were on Saturday, our wedding day was so amazing. Everyone was so kind and done such a great job. So many of the guests said to me “wow, what a venue!”
Erica was great the whole day and made me feel like nothing would go wrong, and even if it did she would be there to fix it.
Thank you all so much for making this day finally happen for us.
Again, thank you all SO much. I’ll be making sure to tell all of my friends go get married at South Farm so I can hopefully return!
Robert & Sophie - September 25, 2022
We will absolutely be writing raving reviews and recommendations. We have absolutely nothing negative to say, the day went so smoothly and everyone at the farm could not have been more helpful and accommodating. All of the guests were blown away by the food and the venue, so we are very happy.
I would like to make a special mention of just how fantastic Emily was on the day. Took any potential stress away and made sure everyone was where they needed to be and did it all with a smile. We were both so impressed by her.
Once we have our photos back, we will of course send them over with the questionnaire.
Thank you all again, and we will be in touch soon.
Barry – Father of the Bride - September 21, 2022
I felt I had to write to say a massive thank you to all of your team for making my daughters wedding truly special. The attention to detail was absolutely first rate and throughout the whole day nothing was too much trouble. Every member of the team seemed to have a single goal of making the day perfect which they did with a smile and level of enthusiasm that I rarely encounter in the modern day service industry. Everyone I encountered was kind patient and helpful and this really made our day.
I very rarely put pen to paper but the exemplary service provided by the whole team was very much worthy of a huge thank you from myself. I will not hesitate to recommend both the venue and the team to family and friends in the future.
Juan - September 19, 2022
I shot Stefan and Sarah’s wedding… and I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to all the team.
It was so hot, and everyone made sure I had water and was okay. This was really appreciated. So thank you. Also, I didn’t get a chance to say thank you to Helen…who also made sure I was looked after and fed.
I’m not used to be looked after so well.
South Farm just looked absolutely stunning and I can’t wait to be back.
Please do pass on my thanks to your team!
Fiona & George - September 10, 2022
Dear Erica, Emily, Michelle & the whole South Farm Team
We would like to thank you for everything you did to make our wedding day all we’d hoped for and more. We really appreciated all of Michelle & Emily’s support during planning & Erica did an amazing job on the day – everything went like clock work … except that pesky British weather ???? All of the staff were fab throughout the day – many of our guests said so too!
Many thanks
Rebecca & Nicholas - September 9, 2022
Firstly, thank you so much for giving us the wedding day of our dreams, it was everything we’ve ever wanted and so much more. I cannot express just how amazing it was and we are so sad its over! From the show round with Phillip, to our planning meeting & menu tasting, to breakfast the morning after it was just perfect. Honestly if we could do it all again we’d be booking in a heartbeat!
All of our guests said it was the best wedding & venue they’ve ever attended. Everyone also said how amazing Michelle & the other staff were, and how everything ran so smoothly & efficiently, but yet so calm and relaxed. The food was outstanding, the service was impeccable, the surroundings were stunning, and DJ Gary & the hoof booth from your suppliers list were both absolutely perfect! And we got our outdoor ceremony, which was the icing on the cake.
From start to finish Michelle was exceptional, she really went above and beyond. She was kind, fun, professional, caring and considerate. We were both so so nervous and she really held us together, calmed us down, and was amazing with our 3 children, who absolutely loved her. Also during the meal my youngest knocked gravy all down my dress, Michelle jumped straight into action trying to save the dress and stop me from having a breakdown! She is just an amazing person inside & out, and such an asset to South Farm. Please pass on our gratitude and love to her. We cannot thank her enough.
We do not have one negative point/feeling from the day.
Kelly & Luke - September 5, 2022
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and the team at South Farm. We had such an great day and you all were so so amazing on the day and on the preparation before. Thank you for making everything so easy for us.
So many friends and family have said how amazing the venue is and especially the food.
Thank you again, we couldn’t of asked for anything more.
Izzy & Jevon - September 3, 2022
Thank you so much for making our wedding day so fantastic. Erica was so helpful and ensured everything ran smoothly on the day. We had so many compliments on how nice the food and venue were – we are sorry its all over!
Victoria & Tim - August 30, 2022
Both Tim and I wanted to express our thanks again for the most amazing day ever. We truly will never forget it, and we are forever saying we wish we could do it again and again all over just for the experience. It was literally the “best day ever”…
The attention to detail, food, atmosphere, just everything was “on point”. If anyone is looking for a venue, be it a wedding, business event, Christmas party then this is the place. From start to finish we were kept in the loop and treated 1st class.
Our guests still to date, talk on how our wedding was the best they have attended. From the food, the entertainment, the provisions, to the attention to detail and the atmosphere nothing was overlooked.
Thank you to everyone you are an amazing team ⭐️

Lauren & David - August 28, 2022
Thank you for making our day run so smoothly. We had the most incredible wedding at South Farm. We would do it all again in a heartbeat. Becky you were absolutely amazing and we was so lucky to have you as part of our day.
Thank you – lots of love
Jessica & Nicholas - August 20, 2022
Firstly, just a note from me to say thank you Michelle so much for looking after us all so fabulously yesterday. We had the most amazing day and everything was just perfect. Everyone said how fantastic you were and that you were so bright cheerful and calming.
South Farm is an amazing venue but it is only the special teamwork who make it a truly special occasion. Every member of the South Farm team were welcoming, happy to help and so attentive. A huge thank you to every single team member for looking after us all yesterday.
On behalf of Annette, Poppy, George and I can I say once again thanks so much for a day for us, Jessica and Nick to treasure
Jenna & Travis - August 19, 2022
There are not enough words that even begin to explain how over the moon we were to have our wedding day with you on 19/08/22. We were blown away by how seamlessly everything ran & how well cared for ourselves & our guests felt. We got so much positive feedback from guests and suppliers. Thank you for going above and beyond and for making our wedding dream a reality .
Joleene - August 17, 2022
I attended the wedding of Dominique and James yesterday and just wanted to say a huge thank you to yourself and your hard working staff!
The venue is beautiful, but it’s the attentive, hard-working staff and your team’s ability to cater to the ‘awkward’ guest like myself that really made it stand out to me.
Not once did anyone announce what foods I could or couldn’t eat, nobody made a big thing of naming me out loud to identify me; one quiet enquiry from myself about whether the sausages contained gluten and a dish of canapés appeared, suiting my requirements and the meal itself, not so different from everybody else’s that I obviously stood out – delicious.
Thank you, a huge thank you to all involved.
Gabrielle & Tom - August 12, 2022
Thank you ever so much! We had the most wonderful day – we were honestly thrilled with how everything went! We had so many compliments on the venue and the food.
Phillippa & Dave - August 11, 2022
After a day looking back at our wedding on Thursday (and recovering! ) we just wanted to say a huge thank you to EVERY member of your team.
From our first amazing virtual tour a year and a half ago to the morning after our big day every member of your team were just amazing! It’s really hard to put into words how unbelievable you all were/are. Everyone couldn’t do enough for myself and Dave and all of our guests. Everyone said how amazing not just the venue itself was but also the people who are part of the South Farm team.
There isn’t one thing we would change about anything, you went above any expectations we ever had. We felt so at home and relaxed about everything and that’s down to your superb team. What a family you all are.
We’d like to also personally thank Hayley who just went above and beyond in every way possible on our day. In a way that was just perfect for us, the little touches, the checking in, the looking after our family both the little ones and older ones! The passing us a drink whenever you thought we needed one…you just knew! It was like you’d known us for years! You are one amazing event manager but even more importantly to us it was your kind and caring nature towards us and our family and friends that just made our day the best day!
I’ve attached a few photos of our big day feel free to use, but will also send you Bea’s when she’s got them. Also if you need us to review anything please do shout!
We are hopeful some of our friends will now get married and pick south farm so we can experience it all again! Fingers crossed!!
Sending lots of love to you all and thank you for making our day the best day of our lives
Jordan & Tom - August 6, 2022
Just a note to say a huge thankyou to you all for making our day the best day ever ! All we have spoken about for the last few days is our wedding day and how amazing it was – it was all down to you!
A very special mention to Michelle who did the most incredible job at making sure our day was as seamless as possible – we couldn’t have hoped for a kinder wedding planner.
We wish we could do it all again and will treasure this day & South Farm for a life time.
Thank you to an incredible team.
Emma & Chris - July 25, 2022
Thank you for helping us make our wedding the most memorable day of our lives .
We had the most wonderful and perfect day at South Farm, so thank you to everyone involved on the day and before! Helen was amazing and so helpful all day as were all the other staff we met, we never had to worry about anything. The food was stunning and got so many compliments from our guests, as did your beautiful venue. South Farm is magical and we know that it takes a lot of hard work so thank you!
William & Olivia - July 20, 2022
We had a fantastic day and thank you so much for everything as we quite literally couldn’t have had such a perfect wedding without your team!
You’ll be happy to hear we have absolutely no negative feedback at all! Absolutely everything from the venue to the food to the organisation and efficiency of the team was perfect – we’ll be sure to leave a review at some point and I’m sure Liv will share some of the photos with your facebook page!
Our only regret is not being able to get married at South Farm again! Although you never know, some people renew their vows after a few decades right?
Louise - July 20, 2022
Just wanted to say thank you so much for your help on Sunday, it was very much appreciated!
We absolutely loved the venue, everyone was so polite and helpful, definitely the best venue I have worked at for my past 2 years in business.
Hoping to work with you all again soon!
Martin & Natalie - July 18, 2022
We just wanted to say a big thank you for hosting our perfect wedding.
Despite record breaking temperatures the team did a wonderful professional job. Special thanks to Helen for managing the day, Philip for driving us to the lake (and doing donuts in the tuktuk) and Christine for all the help after the day. Emily, thank you for being in the office at 10pm the night before to handle last minute dietary requirements!
Ffion & Ben - July 8, 2022
Thank you so much for looking after us so amazingly & making our day so magical. We appreciate everything you did for us and our guests.
Chrissy & Neil - July 1, 2022
We’re just writing to thank you so much for making sure our wedding day was perfect. We absolutely loved it and kept hearing from guests that they loved it too. We felt very proud of South Farm, the staff and all the hard work that had gone into making it all happen.
In particular we wanted to mention the positivity of all of the staff we encountered. They couldn’t do enough for us and it came across that they really enjoyed working for South Farm and we just looked forward to hearing from them. It’s a lovely group of people you have working with you and we really enjoyed the whole process because of them.
The tasting session was a huge treat. It surpassed our expectations, and we couldn’t wait to get married after that! Amazing food, really lovely people, well organised. I think this is a real bonus when booking South Farm as you get a real taste of what your day will be like, which is comforting and exciting.
We also couldn’t quite believe the quality and taste of the food on our wedding day. Again, it went beyond what we had hoped and so many guests said it was the best food they had every had. Our uncles in particular are still raving about it at our family gatherings now! The quantity was perfect too, which was something my parents were a bit apprehensive about as my family have big appetites. Michelle completely put our minds at ease on that, so thank you for doing extra bowls of potatoes for us. We also realise now we needn’t have been worried at all about how pink the beef was :-) but she still let us request it to be cooked medium and we appreciate that.
The ceremony location itself was breath-taking. We both said the scenery was amazing (and beautifully kept) and we couldn’t have dreamed of it to be any better in terms of how we felt. We were just blown away with how beautiful and perfect it felt.
And we would like to thank Helen for being the perfect planner for the day. Friendly, organised, unflappable. Everyone really liked her, and she made us feel so well looked after. She asked just the right questions and made sure we had everything we needed. We can’t thank her enough for this. She did a great job of settling our nerves too.
Elana & Richard - June 29, 2022
Firstly thank you so much to you and the team (special shout out to Hayley for all her hard work on the day!) We have had nothing but compliments on how great the staff, venue and food were. You really did make our day fantastic and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Mark Fisher - June 26, 2022
I would like to take this opportunity to let you know it was an amazing day and the service, courtesy & professionalism of all the staff working on that day far exceeded my expectations.
Everyone who attended that day have expressed to me how wonderful the venue was and the quality of service.
I would like to say a special thank you to Hayley as she was absolutely first class keeping everything moving & keeping me in the loop, nothing was to much trouble for her, I did mention her in my speech but did not get the chance to thank her personally later that evening, please pass my thanks to her.
Can you give Gary (disco) my thanks for making the evening a really great end of a brilliant day, even if my dancing was not so brilliant.
Can you also relay my thanks to the lady who sorted everyone with the breakfast the following morning, again great service.
Finally in my line of work I speak to hundreds of people through the year and you can be rest assured I will be recommending South farm for events and weddings.
For Simone & my daughter Natasha as they move forward in the marital life thank you all for helping with the PERFECT START.
Yufan & Andy - June 24, 2022
Thank you so very much for being a huge piece of the jigsaw that made our day just perfect.
We knew from the moment we laid eyes on the blue door (and when Liz handed us a goody bag with your free range eggs in it) that South Farm was the one for us. We’d seen a few other venues already, but with South Farm it simply just clicked into place .
A huge shout to Helen for making everything run so smoothly on the day ; to Emily, Becky, and Michelle for answering all of Yufan’s silly questions in the lead up ; to your catering staff who whipped up the most delicious meal that our guests are still talking about it ; and to everyone else who keep all the cogs turning behind the scenes too . Your people are absolutely a credit to South Farm.
Thank you again for creating such a memorable day for us both.
Dave & Sophie - June 17, 2022
We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone at south farm. Just saying those words doesn’t feel enough as what you guys have done in helping and pulling off the perfect day means absolutely everything to us.
We are still on cloud nine looking through all the photos and have been talking about the day non stop.
We would just like to give a special thanks to Michelle and Helen for being amazing with the wedding planning and running the day itself like clockwork. Amazing!
Roisin & Peter - June 16, 2022
We wanted to say a huge Thank You! For making our wedding day so perfect.
All of the team were fantastic, so kind and helpful. From the emails and phone calls before the wedding and on the wedding day.
Hayley was amazing! She put our minds at ease that the day was going smoothly and let us take in and enjoy our day.
We have had so much amazing feedback from our guest, they have told us how beautiful the venue is, how amazing the food was and fantastic the staff were.
We could not have asked for a more perfect day and that was because of everyone at South Farm!
We will be recommending you to all.
Elana & Jordan - June 11, 2022
On behalf of our whole family I want to thank you for being such a steller organiser for Elana’s and Jordan’s wedding. Everything about the venue was excellent – and in fact exceeded my expectations (…. The food !!!). I felt that everything was secure in your hands and that meant that I could relax and really enjoy the day. You were absolutely first class.
Nicola & Daniel - June 8, 2022
Firstly we cannot thank you all at South Farm enough for your communication and support throughout our whole booking/arranging experience. You all have helped to make it stress free and enjoyable. Although we can’t quite believe it is over we are over the moon with the outcome of the day. It truly was everything we wanted it to be and more. Erica was absolutely amazing on the day, thank you so much! South farm is so breathtaking and the most perfect venue, we have had so many compliments from our guests. Again thank you so much for everything.
Abby & Andrew - June 5, 2022
South Farm was just perfect for us, such a relaxed feel at a stunning venue. The whole day was perfect. Of course we could of had slightly better weather so we were able to get married outside and we were hoping we would get some little piglets but these things didn’t stop us having the best day ever!
Special thanks to Hayley our event manager on the day, nothing was too much trouble and she made us feel as special as you should do on your wedding day. She was there to make sure we were happy every part of the day and she definitely did that 100%! All of our guests said how stunning the venue was and how amazing the food was!
Also thank you so much for getting the bridal suite ready early for me to get some pictures in the morning, that really helped a lot!
Even some of our suppliers have mentioned to me how lovely you all are and how accommodating you were at helping them set up and directing them in the right place etc. I used to be a wedding planner myself so I know things like that go a long long way in this industry so thank you for that.
We had a brilliant day, great staff, wonderful venue!
Mr & Mrs Biglin - June 2, 2022
Well ,what can we say …
Thank you so much for our perfect wedding. The venue runs like clockwork, you are so good at what you do. Special thank you to Hayley who was our event manager on the day and was absolutely lovely .
Keep up the good work.
Nikki & Jo - May 31, 2022
Thank you for making our day amazing . Everyone was so attentive and friendly. All our guests commented on how amazing you were. A special thank you from Peanut for all the cuddles he got .
You guys are amazing at what you do.
Amy & Laura - May 25, 2022
We just wanted to say a huge thank you to all of you who helped make our wedding run so smoothly. You were all incredible and we never had to worry about a thing. Every single thing about South Farm is magical and it is like that because of you.
Special thanks to Summer our amazing event manager, your smile and calmness throughout the day was much appreciated ????
Mr & Mrs Ward - May 19, 2022
We can’t even express in words just how incredible our wedding day at South Farm was!!! It was just perfect and everything we could have dreamed of. Our guests were in awe of how beautiful South Farm is. My photographer has always wanted to shoot at SF and wasn’t disappointed. My singer said it was just “magical”.
We had the most amazing day, please do pass on massive thanks to Summer who was just fantastic, our guests commented on how lovely and helpful she was. She really put me at ease and couldn’t do enough for me.Also to every other member of your team who helped with the smooth running of our day. Your staff were just brilliant!
And the food… my goodness the food…. The comments from our guests about the food were just incredible, they commented on how amazing every single thing was. Your chefs are so talented.
Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts, I’m so glad we chose to have our wedding with you.
Val & John - May 17, 2022
John and I want to thank you so much for ensuring that our celebrations on Tuesday were utterly fabulous! We always thought we’d made the right choice of South Farm but the day itself proved how wonderful both the team and venue really are.
It seems unfair to mention only some people as we were so impressed with the professionalism and friendliness of everyone we spoke to throughout our protracted progress towards our special day but Hayley, our Event Manager needs a special mention: she was an absolute joy and always seemed to be at hand to help without ever being intrusive and has an uncanny ability to read minds in that she knew what I wanted/would find helpful before I had even thought of it.
We’d also especially like to thank the chefs who delivered such a wonderful meal. Many of our friends made a point of saying that the canapes were probably the best they’d ever tasted.
We could go on – the grounds, serving staff, housekeeping, office staff, location, ambience, etc. etc. – all absolutely fantastic.
We will miss planning our South Farm celebrations and dealing with you all. Hopefully, one of our friends will decide to get married at South Farm and we can enjoy it again. In the meantime, John and I send huge thanks to you all and wish everyone our very best.
Claire & Mike - May 7, 2022
Jess & Sam - April 26, 2022
Thank you all for making our day so special. Everything was even better than we could have imagined. We really noticed all of your hard work on the day – our guests even mentioned it. They all raved about the food – the best wedding food they had ever had and one of the loveliest venues they had ever been to.
Emily & Mat - April 8, 2022
Thank you so much for everything you have done to make our wedding the best day ever! Everything and everybody we have met or spoken to have been so helpful and friendly and South Farm is the most beautiful venue. You made the whole wedding planning straight forward and we appreciate that hugely. All of our guests have been so incredibly complimentary of the venue, food and staff. The food was amazing!! A particular thank you to Helen for working so hard to make our ceremony happen outside – it wouldn’t have happened without you ! And to the teams who made this happen too by cutting the grass and putting chairs out last minute. Great to find out we were the first outdoor wedding of 2022.
Our guests claimed it was like being in the South of France! We have had the best experience and have created some wonderful memories at South Farm, so thank you.
Danielle & Charlotte - April 6, 2022

Jade & Will - November 6, 2021
A massive thank you for helping us with our perfect wedding day. We had the most amazing day and this was thanks to your beautiful venue and incredibly attentive staff. A special Thank You to Summer, who was such a calming presence on the day. We have had so many compliments from our guests about out venue choice, including how amazing the food was!
Lauren & Dean - October 28, 2021
Louisa & Andrew - October 21, 2021
I can’t believe it’s been four weeks already since our incredible day with you all. We can’t say thank you enough for everything you did for us in the run up and during our wedding.
From our first meeting and show round in November 2018 we knew South Farm was a special place and we just had to have our wedding there. Every single person we spoke or met with was incredible, including but not limited to, Emily, Summer, Christine, Becky and Michelle; from our planning meeting, the couples taster evening (literally never known another venue that does anything that incredible), all the postponement and rescheduling, the second planning meeting and all the panicky calls and emails were dealt with nothing other than calm, friendliness and reassurance. In 20 months like no other to hit the wedding and hospitality industry, you all made us feel like everything was under control, even when it probably didn’t feel like it was your end but it made all the difference to us when we were making those difficult choices.
Luckily every choice we did make with your help was absolutely the right one and the whole day was exactly – if not better – than we dreamed it would be. So many of our guests couldn’t tell us enough how gorgeous the place was and were so impressed – like we were – with your onsite kitchen team and dedication to growing and raising the produce you serve. We’re still getting people telling us how incredible the food was! Not a single complaint to be had and it all went down an absolute treat.
An extra special mention to Julie for being our coordinator on the day; an absolutely unflappable, consummate professional who knew all the answers to any questions we had before we asked them! From the little things like asking if we wanted a peek at the rooms after set up, to muscling her way into the evening buffet to make us up a plate of food and leave it in the bridal suite for us (the best idea EVER!), we had absolutely no worries the entire day, she was incredible.
And finally a big thank you to all the rest of the operational team who made everything run like a dream, from the kitchen team, to the F&B and bar staff. I’ve worked in hospitality and customer facing roles since I was 16 and I have to say, your staff are some of the best. Even coming down to breakfast the next morning to see all the tables set up and decorated with our centerpieces and decorations was such a lovely surprising touch; so unexpected but just a lovely example of some of the things that make South Farm so special.
The only disappointment was the absolute audacity of your lovely pig to still be overdue and pregnant on the day – only for her to give birth the day after we believe? How rude, haha! Still can’t believe we missed out on piglet pictures!! But we won’t hold it against you :-)
Seriously guys, thank you just doesn’t feel enough, you made our whole day and we’ll never forget it. We won’t hesitate to recommend you!
Louisa & Andrew Fortune-Terrell - October 21, 2021

After such a difficult year for the wedding industry, South Farm still had its magic and has come back even stronger
Thank you for the bottom of our hearts.

We just wanted to share a few of our photos from our wedding ceremony on 12 December ….. we feel so lucky and privileged that we were able to get married in these strange times … especially as we live in a Tier 4 area now.
Our Event Manager Michelle was an absolute star and couldn’t have done anymore to make our day special.
Thanks again for everyone’s help and support on the day.
Speak soon and take care
Sharon & Clare
Matt & Charlotte - December 9, 2020
Matt and I just wanted to pop an email to say how absolutely incredible everything was yesterday. Helen was totally amazing. Very attentive and friendly. Every staff member made a day that was not as planned feel like the most special day ever and we wanted to thank everyone for that too.
The food was amazing and everyone complimented on how tasty it was and well presented.
We would recommend South farm to anyone it is the most magical place on earth.
Love Matt and Charlotte xx

Laura Hewett - September 26, 2020
We had a really lovely wedding reception at South Farm last Saturday. We initially decided upon this venue for its beautiful outdoor space and the number of guests it could welcome. Of course no one could foresee the Coronavirus situation, but we have been so impressed by South Farm’s response with their packages for smaller weddings. Even with a reception 1/6 of our intended size (and in the rain!) the space was used very well so that the reception still felt lively. The food was outstanding, the staff as welcoming as ever, and some of our friends could still stay over and enjoy a stroll around in the grounds with us in the morning.
Thanks South Farm for showing us that ‘good things come in small packages’!!!
Emily Cooper - September 25, 2020
Emma Rockwood - September 19, 2020
As soon as we arrived at South Farm for the initial walk-round we knew it was the place for us, and by the time we left we had fallen in love with it and didn’t need to even look elsewhere.
The staff really are like one big family and every single one of them will do anything to help make your day as special as possible. They are organised, professional, enthusiastic, positive, attentive, efficient and experts in their own areas. They literally are the dream team and from start to finish they all make you feel like yours is the only wedding going on in the world!
The organic food is amazing and is mainly home-grown on-site at South Farm, you are always welcome to look around the smallholding, nothing is hidden away and everything is so well maintained and loved, it really shows. The animals are adorable and it is clear that their welfare comes above anything, which is hugely important to us.
The venue speaks for itself, it is just stunning, inside and out, whatever the season. A huge amount of hard work must go on behind the scenes in keeping everything looking so great but it all feels so natural with effortless countryside beauty.
To summarise, we cannot recommend South Farm highly enough, it’s literally our perfect venue and our wedding day was simply perfect, even in times like these, so thank you all.
Sarah & Alex - August 27, 2020
We got married at South Farm in August and we can’t recommend them enough!
The venue is just so beautiful but it’s the team that makes this place special. Nothing is out of the question and they have a truly individual approach.
We loved this personable treatment as having viewed other venues and been to wedding fayres a lot of places felt very formulaic and we didn’t want a churned out, identikit ‘cookie cutter’ wedding, we wanted to get married somewhere that felt like ‘us’.
South Farms ‘Distinctly Different’ motto was perfect for us and we loved sharing ideas with the team about making our day just right for us, from the veggie menu we created, to the decor and the special drinks, everything was exactly how we wanted it.
Whilst this year has been really tough for wedding planning and the industry as a whole South Farm stayed calm and informed keeping us up to date on the changing government restrictions and were prepared and forward thinking with what they could offer throughout.
We had our wedding with 30 people and within all the government guidelines of the time but it was still our perfect big day and we’re so glad we went ahead.
Whilst the planning felt fun and easy, the day itself was also a breeze with South Farms event planning team running the event like clockwork without you realising so that you can kick back and just enjoy! A big thank you to Michelle who kept everything running smoothly on our day! I didn’t even have chance to feel anxious or panic about anything as it felt like everything was sorted for me!
It was truly special, thank you South Farm!
Aysen Mehmet & Rob Luker - February 16, 2020
We had the most special day. The venue is amazing and the staff from the start of our process, up to and including our big day were faultless. First class all the way!
Melissa & David - February 15, 2020
Hi Summer
Thank you so much for everything you done for both myself and David on our wedding day. I don’t think the day would have gone as smoothly if it wasn’t for you.
You were there for anything either of us needed and even our guests requests.
Our day was as perfect as we imagined, the venue is absolutely beautiful. Everything just ran like clockwork, would also like to thank all of the staff as they were all so polite and helpful.
Most of our guests had told us that was the best wedding they’ve ever been to.
Thanks again for everything, I will be recommending South Farm to anyone I know who gets engaged in the future.

Andrew Dudley, Emma & George’s Parents - February 8, 2020
A slightly belated thank you for organising an excellent wedding for Emma & George last Saturday. We were very lucky with the weather, which presented South Farm in glorious winter sunshine, and we missed the wind and rain that lashed everywhere on the Sunday. All the guests commented on the choice of venue and the quality of the food. It all made for an excellent event with the vast majority of the guests staying to the bitter end.
Our organiser on the day was Emily and she was on top of all aspects. Her dialogue with me kept me fully up to date with everything and even when the speeches over ran their allotted time she was brilliant in getting the room re-organised so that we were soon back on target. All your staff were a credit to your organisation with exactly the right amount of attention to detail, whilst staying in the background and letting us enjoy the day with our guests.
On behalf of Emma, George and both sets of parents thank you very much.
Richard & Jotty - December 21, 2019
Jotty and I would like to thank you for the most tremendous day. You all played a huge part in making it work and Jane, on the day it was seamless.
From the bottom of our hearts we thank you all.
Louise & Steve Fowler - December 20, 2019
Hello,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything everyone at South Farm did for our wedding on Friday!
Michelle was so friendly and attentive and really felt part of the wedding party which was lovely. My niece also said a special thank you to her for the cake!
The food also got rave reviews from everyone who came and was delicious!
Thank you to everyone who was involved in the run up to the wedding – Emily and Becky were both great and made everything seem so easy!
I also had a lovely time catching up with Hannah – thanks for letting me in the kitchen!
Hope you all have a lovely Christmas and a well deserved break.
Thanks again,
Louise and Steve

Amy & Peter Richardson - December 13, 2019
5 stars. From the moment we first looked around to the morning after our wedding, South Farm was incredible.
Special mention to Helen our organiser on the day who made us both feel at ease, as well as making sure every detail was covered.
Communication with South Farm made me feel a little worried initially as you talk to so many different people in the team. But when we met Helen it became clear it wasn’t that no-one was specifically looking after us, it’s that every one of the team is looking after us and the level to which Helen knew what we wanted just showed that.
We got so many compliments on the food, every single contributor from their recommendations was spot on and all the staff were friendly. It was perfect.
Plus there are piglets!
Francesca Main & Kathy Derry - November 21, 2019
We had our beautiful wedding here on Thursday. Francesca and I enjoyed it so much and Michelle and Helga were on top form.
Emily & Thomas - November 16, 2019
Hi Summer,
Thanks so much for your message and sorry for our late reply, we are just back from our honeymoon in Cyprus!
It would be impossible for us to tell you how perfect everything was on the day, we were both a bit anxious in the days leading up to it but we needn’t have been, Jane took excellent care of us and honestly it was better than we ever could have hoped! Loads of our guests said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to, everyone said the food was absolutely amazing, and we really couldn’t have been more thrilled with everything so thank you so much to the whole team, particularly Jane and Emily as well who helped a lot with the planning and was brilliant in the lead up to the day. And to you Summer who showed us around when we first came to visit you just over a year ago and you helped us make the excellent decision to have our wedding at South Farm!.
Sending all our very best to the team and we hope to be able to visit South Farm again in future!

Kind regards

Alison Landon - November 9, 2019
My daughter, Eve Landon (now Dolling ) got married at your beautiful venue on 9th November this year. I would just like to say how fabulous her day was I can’t fault anything. Summer was absolutely amazing, friendly, professional, understanding and totally on top of everything. I don’t know what we’d have done without her! Chris, the MC, was a delight and ensured the day ran smoothly, as well as winning the hearts of us and our guests I could gush on about many things, including the food and accommodation but I’d end up writing a novel Suffice to say, we are so happy that we chose South Farm to host our celebrations
Many thanks
Ash & Eve - November 9, 2019
Dear Summer and the South Farm Team,
We wanted to thank you for making our Wedding Day so special.
The planning of the day was made so much easier because of all you did – your lovely and speedy responses to all of our enquiries in the buildup made it that much less stressful for us.
The day itself was perfect and we wanted to especially thank Summer for making everything run so smoothly and particularly for staying later to assist in the evening.
We will never forget our special day at South Farm.
Thank you again
Emily & Edward Chapman - November 1, 2019
5 star rating!!! South Farm is the most incredible wedding venue. My husband and I got married earlier this month and would highly recommend. The staff were amazing, from the beginning of planning to the execution on the day. Everything ran smoothly and was very organised, all details were covered making the process of planning as stress free as possible. The food was also wonderful, we had lots of comments from our guests saying how much they enjoyed it. The staff made us feel very special and catered to all of our needs. They went above and beyond our expectations for a wedding venue. We are so happy that we chose to have our wedding there. We were in discussion with a few of the team at the venue, all of which were great. Summer was our wedding planner on the day and was wonderful!!
Steph & Iain - October 20, 2019
On behalf of myself and my new HUSBAND, I’d just like to say a massive thank you to you and the whole team at South Farm. The day could not have gone better and we couldn’t imagine celebrating anywhere else. From day one, the experience has been an absolute pleasure and given the short timeline we were working with, we were pleasantly surprised at how easy the whole planning process felt!
Myself and Iain were so happy with how the day went- a bonus was that we got lucky with the weather and had the magical experience of our dream outdoor ceremony! All the guests have talked about is how the venue was so stunning and how great the food was (we’ve even had a couple of carnivores consider a plant based diet going forward!)
Honestly we could go on…
Again a big thanks to all those we worked closely with including James, Emily and of course Becky who on the day ran a slick military operation and of course this will all be reflected in our online reviews too.
Take care and best wishes,
Steph and Iain
Mark & Ronnie Hagger - October 19, 2019

Best regards
Mr. and Mrs. Darnell-Anderson - October 17, 2019
Dear Summer,
Happy New Year to you and the team at South Farm! We hope you all had a lovely holiday period.
We would like to express our appreciation for everything the team at South Farm have done for us. We couldn’t have wished for anything more, as you had met and promptly exceeded all our expectations. Everything was handled with great professionalism and warmth. Our guests have all expressed how impressed they were by the venue, the food, the staff and the atmosphere. Even to this day people are still commenting on the amazing buffet spread and the romance of South Farm. A special mention to yourself, Summer, for being with us from our first show around, through to the final moments of the big day, and for always having the kindest nature.
Chris & Karen Garrett - October 9, 2019
Dear Phillip & Team,
We wanted to thank you so much for an absolutely perfect day we had on the 9th October 2019 for our son Nick and Laura’s wedding. Everyone throughout enjoyed themselves and we all agree that the venue, food and most of all the staff were all fabulous. We will be recommending the farm as it was fantastic in every way.
King Regards,
Chris & Karen Garrett.
Mrs & Mrs Clemence-Jackson - October 6, 2019
To Helga, Emily, Christine and the whole team at South Farm,
Phil and I want to say a huge thank you to everyone at South Farm for giving us the most perfect wedding day we could have wished for.
From the moment we booked you as our venue we received fantastic service. You were happy to accommodate all of our needs to make the day uniquely ours. You were organised and proactive in the months before the wedding, helping us with our choices at each step and leaving us in no doubt that everything was in hand. The food tasting day we attended was a runner-up for best day of the year!
On the day itself Helga was friendly and professional, and all the staff’s hard work was evident in the fact that everything went perfectly and seamlessly. Friends and family were full of compliments about the venue, food and staff.
We honestly had the best day of our lives and we are so glad we chose South Farm to make it happen.
Please accept a huge thank you from us both, and from our families and friends.
All the best,
Katie & Phil
Lynne & Gerald Clemence - October 6, 2019
Dear Christine
My husband and I would like to thank everyone at South Farm for making our daughter’s wedding so special on Sunday. Thanks to you, everything went perfectly and everyone who attended had a wonderful time. We’d particularly like to thank Helga who ensured that everything went according to plan, and who met every query or request with a smile. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt that we were in safe hands and were very well looked after. The food was amazing; it looked beautiful, tasted delicious and was served smoothly and efficiently. The chef and team are to be congratulated on producing such high quality food throughout the day, from the delicious canapés, to the magnificent meal, the lovely truffles and finally the hog roast rolls. There were many compliments!
Thank you so much!
Katherine & Ben Selby - September 29, 2019
Dear all at South Farm,
It honestly couldn’t have been any better. We are incredibly grateful for the work of all staff on the day – especially Summer who was a total delight and kept us calm down and relaxed throughout! :)
Special shout-outs to Emily & Becky who were fantastic as we booked and planned the day – just exceptional pros :) Love always!
Olli and Emma Sharpe - September 8, 2019
Dear South Farm!
We just wanted to message to thank everybody at South Farm for the most amazing and wonderful wedding day! From the very first time we saw South Farm we fell in love, it was everything we were looking for in a wedding venue! The staff were amazing every step of the way and made the wedding planning experience smooth, stress-free and very enjoyable! We loved all of it from the amazing menu tasting, to the pre-planning meeting to of course the big day itself! My personal highlight were the piglets of course!
All of our guests absolutely loved the venue and thought it was amazing! They thought everything was so personal and we had a lovely sunny day so they got to see all the beautiful gardens!
Becky was our wedding planner on the day and she was amazing! She made the day run so smoothly and we cant thank her enough!
Mr & Mrs Richards - August 29, 2019
Jane & Team,
Thank you so much for all of your help on the lead up to our wedding day. We truly had the most incredible day & honestly couldn’t have wished for a better venue & team. The food was incredible & the bar staff managed to keep up with our cocktail orders.
Lots of love Mr & Mrs Richards
Sarah & Nick - August 28, 2019
Dearest Emily & The team South Farm,
Thank you for being amazing! It was the most wonderful day and went like clockwork!
Mr & Mrs Walsh - August 26, 2019
We’ve just returned back home after attending our Nephews wedding on a very hot day. On behalf of me and my wife we’d like to say thanks. We’ve been to a lot of weddings and were saying to each other this has to be the nicest one we’ve been to. The owners and all the staff should be very proud of what they have created a truly remarkable experience.
Mr & Mrs Henddrickson - August 26, 2019
To Helen and everyone at South Farm,
We just wanted to thank you for making our dream wedding come true. We had the most perfect day and it all ran so smoothly. Helen helped us feel so relaxed and calm, even grabbing Josh a banana straight after the ceremony, as nothing was too much to ask. We are so glad we chose South Farm to host our wedding. Thank you for everything … We wish we could do it all over again!
Kath & Neil Walker - August 25, 2019
Dear Helga and all the team at South Farm,
Neil and I wanted to also give massive thanks for our daughter’s wedding on Sunday 25th August 2019. Your calm, friendly and professional help ensured a stunning, spectacular, amazing day that we shall all remember for the rest of our lives.
Mr & Mrs Hastings - August 16, 2019
Helen, Caio from Italy!
We have spent our first day of honeymoon talking about the wedding and singing your praises! Wow, you were fantastic!
Thanks for making our dream day come true and then some! We were drunk in love (and just drunk) and you made every second perfect!
We’re happy to say the weather in Italy is better than our wedding day!
Thank you so much for everything!
Wow!
Lots of love!
Mr & Mrs Hastings! Xxxxxx
Amy and Richard - August 12, 2019
Thank you to everyone at South Farm,
To Jane for discreetly organising us and being kind to Minnie, to Gary the brilliant DJ ( We danced all night), the Chefs for the fantastic food and best breakfast sausages, the housekeepers for our perfect rooms and the gardeners who keep the grounds looking so beautiful and to anyone else working behind the scenes.
As parents who live in Scotland hundreds of miles from our daughter, South Farm was a perfect choice of venue. We keep being told it was the best wedding ever. A huge thank you for a day we will always remember for the rest of our lives. It was very special
Anne Marie & Richard Wild
Emily Bundock-Hitch & Gary Hitch - August 11, 2019
We got married at South Farm on the 11th August 2019. From the initial show round two years previous we knew this was our wedding venue. The run up to the wedding with the planning meeting and wedding planner document made it so easy to communicate everything we needed for our day, and on the day everything was in place just as we wanted. The whole day ran just as planned and our event manager Emily did an amazing job at making sure everything was alright all the way through.
Emily & Gary - August 11, 2019
To the South Farm team,
We just wanted to thank you for being the venue for our special day on the 11th August 2019. The smiles on the bride and grooms faces show how much they enjoyed their big bad and that is what is important. Everything on the day was dealt with efficiently and promptly due to your hard work, planning and attention to detail. We know that delivering an experience like this requires so much hard work behind the scenes by an army of people, from the front of house, Chefs, Event Managers, kitchen potters and cleaners and those working in the early hours of the morning to clean and set tables. We want to thank each and every member of the South Farm team because we know it is a team effort. However we would like to single out one person for a special mention, our event manager Emily. She was outstanding and was always there making sure everything ran smoothly but never in the way. She was there to show us around South Farm two years ago when we were looking for venues and it was fitting that she was the event manager on our big day. Thank you Emily.
We have so many wonderful memories of our wedding day which will last a lifetime. We entrusted you with our dreams for a perfect wedding and you didn’t let us down.
Thank you so much Gary Hitch, Emily Bundock-Hitch, Gary Bundock & Sandra Bundock
Olivia & Max Stephenson-Pope - August 5, 2019
From starting off looking around the venue, to the actual wedding day, we received exceptional service, organisation and support with planning our big day.
The venue is absolutely stunning, and lived up to everything we envisioned and could have hoped for. We have had countless comments from our guests praising South Farm, in particular, how you have so many lovely areas for guests to disperse into, and how incredibly delicious all of the food was!
We would also like to thank Helga for being with us for our day and making sure everything ran smoothly. She was professional, knowledgeable, calming, friendly and an absolute godsend, ensuring that everything was taken care of so that we could just take in and enjoy the day!
Thank you again,
Lydia & Blaine - July 28, 2019
To all the team at South Farm,
Thank you so much for making our big day on the 28th July so amazing!
When we chose South Farm as our venue we both knew we were guaranteed a wonderful day, and we were not let down.
Helga – you were brilliant in ensuring our day ran smoothly, thank you so much for keeping us calm and ensuring our Ushers and Bridesmaids kept on task and everyone was where they were supposed to be.
Alexandra and Becky – Thank you for your excellent help and care in each and every stage of our planning, and for always being available on email regardless of the time of day. We felt confident knowing that whatever requirements we submitted in our final plan would be carried out to the letter.
Finally, please send our thanks to the chefs and kitchen staff who prepared such wonderful food; also the waiting and bar staff who set up the barn and served our guests with such elegance and professionalism.
Best wishes
To Emily - July 21, 2019

Jono and I wanted to say a huge, huge thank you to all the team and to Summer for leading our whole day on Thursday – we couldn’t have been happier with how our wedding went and we are still on a high from it. You have been absolutely fabulous. We are on honeymoon for a week so will touch base with you on our return but had to send this quickly just to pass on our massive thanks and gratitude for what you have all done.
Summer – you were just incredible on the day – so calm and collected and thank you for keeping me in the loop all day with everything. You were a star. Thanks for being 120% excellent we are so, so pleased.

Andrea Gallego and Steve Guest - July 1, 2019
We fell in love with South Farm the very first time we visited it and we had the most beautiful, fun, and perfect wedding there. We were extremely lucky with the weather and had the most stunning setting for an outdoors wedding. You will honestly not find a better venue or place to get married than South Farm, we could not recommend it more!
The venue is a magic, special and completely unique, you have to visit to completely understand it. We have had so many compliments from all our guests on how much they loved the venue, the food and they had such a great time!
The food is really exquisite, organic and local, and South Farm is very flexible to adapt to what you really want. The food, just like the service, couldn’t be better. We had some challenges with some guests´s diet requirements and as Spanish I wanted to have some Spanish food too. South Farm were more than happy to help us and follow some of the recipes I provided. My family complimented this, and were surprised it was really good!
The staff is warm, friendly and they put a great amount of effort and thought into everything, means we didn’t feel at all stressed! On the day Helga, our events manager, was more than amazing. She flitted about in the background and was always one step ahead of us. Thank you for being super fantastic! Thanks as well to Emily and Alexandra for making the organisation really easy and for coordinating all since day one and reply all our questions so efficiently.
We absolutely loved having our big day at South Farm and couldn’t be happier looking back on it. I wish we could do it all over again.

South farm went above and beyond and I honestly could not recommend them enough.

Thank you for all of your help on our special day.
You went above and beyond to ensure our day went perfectly and we honestly can’t thank you enough.
Not only did you make sure everything was running smoothly in the background but you were always on hand to give us advice and answer all of our questions.
All of our guests had a lovely day and commented on how amazing South Farm is.
Thank you again for all of your help and guidance,

Lots of love Grace & Guy
Grace and Guy x - June 24, 2019
Hi all at South Farm,
We just wanted to take a minute from the craziness which has been our amazing wedding and then straight off to Florida to say the biggest thank you to everyone at South Farm and a really special thank you to Helen who was our Event Manager on Monday!
We have both said so many times that we had just a perfect day and we honestly couldn’t have asked for better! Helen was an absolute wedding angel, who was all over the place, sorting everything and everyone out and just being so calm and in control! It meant we both totally relaxed and had the most amazing day!
We feel like you guys thought of every last little thing, even down to tidying the bridal suite before we went in (because I’m pretty sure it was carnage in there when we left it ). And we were just amazed at how amazing the garland looked in the Tudor Barn so a big thank you to everyone who sorted that, it sounded like quite a team! But it looked way better than when we put it on the Summerhouse so thank you!! Every single member of staff that was around was friendly and super helpful!
I feel like this has been a rather long email and I still don’t feel like we’ve said thank you enough! But I will say thank you one last time for making the most important day of our lives absolutely perfect, it was because of everyone’s hard work that we have the most amazing memories! I know you do lots and lots of weddings but on Monday it really felt like ours was the only one that mattered, it was so obvious that everyone just wanted it to be perfect for us (again special mention to Helen here!) and we are so so grateful for that!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Lydia and Sam - June 23, 2019
To Alli & the South Farm team,
Thank you so much for all your help in the run up to and on our big day! Everyone was so helpful and Alli made everything on the day so easy and stress free. All our guests are still talking about how beautiful South Farm is, we really did have the most perfect day.
Natalie & Eoin - June 22, 2019

Morning Emily,
I hope you are well on this wet and windy day.
We have been bunkered down at a spa since Saturday, but will sadly return to real life today.
We wanted to say a huge thank you to the whole team at South Farm, and especially yourself for guiding us all through the day.
So many of our guests were amazed by the venue and really loved the food which is the exact reaction we hoped for.
Thanks so much,
Mr & Mrs Gilbert - June 2, 2019
Hi Becky,
We wanted to thank you all for giving us an amazing wedding day, we loved every minute of it – all of our guests said what a beautiful place.
We have only this week gone back to work after our honeymoon which was amazing too.
Please thank Emily and everyone, can’t thank you all enough.
We will send a few photos that people have taken as we haven’t got ours yet.
Love to all,
Ashleigh & Dan Smith - May 31, 2019
We had our dream wedding at South Farm ♥️
This was the first and only venue we visited, need I say anymore. Absolutely everyone and everything was amazing and we cannot recommend South Farm enough.
All of our guests were blow away and we are still receiving compliments!
Everyone who works at South Farm should be so proud to be part of such a well-oiled machine. You made our wedding perfect in every way and we would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Natalie Moody - May 27, 2019
We had the best day we could possibly ask for at South Farm. The staff, food, everything was just simply amazing. Thank you so much to the whole team ❤
Natalie and Craig xxx - May 27, 2019
Hello,
Thank you all so much for making our day as perfect as it was.
The whole team have been amazing from booking the venue all the way to the big day.
The food was amazing and Becky did such a good job making sure everything ran smoothly, I couldn’t have been happier with the day.
Thank you all again,
Lydia and Jordan x - May 25, 2019
Cannot thank Summer and all the staff at South Farm enough. We fell in love with South Farm the very first time we visited and could never have imagined our wedding day to be as perfect as it was. The running of the day was faultless, the food was incredible, the staff so friendly and helpful and Summer was the most helpful and organised event manager on our big day.
We have had so many compliments from all our guests on how much they loved the venue and had such a great time! We were extremely lucky with the weather and the grounds at south farm are so beautiful.
We also took South Farm’s advice and hired DJ Gary for our evening entertainment and can honestly say I have never seen a dance floor so full! Thank you all again we wish we could do it all over and over again!
Love,
Alex and Chris (and Daisy) xxx - May 23, 2019
We had such a beautiful day – it exceeded both our expectations and so many of my friends and family commented on how relaxed they felt and how much they enjoyed it. It really was the most beautiful setting and we were so lucky with the weather.
Lots of people commented how great you were at keeping water on offer and refilling water jugs which they valued especially due to the hot weather and they commented on how good you were at the little details e.g. my friend had a tickly cough during the ceremony and someone handed her a glass of water which was exactly what she needed and was very grateful for.
When you all do this day in and day out it might be that occasionally someone could feel fatigued but we both felt like everyone there loved their jobs and treated everything with care and made it all feel so special.
I would wholeheartedly recommend South Farm to anyone and look forward to coming back to visit.
Thank you so much,
Nicola and James - May 18, 2019
Dear Emily,
Thank you so much for everything you and the South Farm Team did for us on our Wedding Day. We really did have the best day ever, and you made sure that it ran seamlessly for us and we are so grateful.
Kasia & James - May 3, 2019
Thank you so much for making our big day run so seamlessly and superbly well.
One of the reasons we choose South Farm is because we could see you are a well-oiled machine and care about all the little details that are so important to things running well. This all proved to be the case on our big day and we were delighted with how it all went with no problems at all.
Our guests were very complimentary of South Farm, the venue itself and the running of the day. People loved the food and we had many compliments about the food with one guest saying it was by far the best wedding food he had ever had.
Lotty & Mike Lewis - April 27, 2019
To the wonderful Team at South Fam,
We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for providing us with such an incredible and memorable wedding! Throughout all our planning stages up until execution of our wedding, the team have been absolutely amazing. We couldn’t have wished for more of a special day.

Mike & Lotty - April 27, 2019
Hi Christine,
Thanks for your email, and a massive thank you to everyone at South Farm for making our day so special, we absolutely loved it.
The organisation, professionalism and attention to detail was something else and we couldn’t have wished for a better venue to host our wedding celebration.
Gemma & Mark xxx - April 26, 2019
To all at South Farm,
Thank you so much for everything!
We knew straight away that there was no other venue we wanted to our wedding reception at.
From start to finish you made the whole process exciting and stress free.
Your attention to detail is simply amazing and makes everyone – guests and Bridal Party, feel special.
We’re only sad that we can’t do it all over again, but hope to be back one day as guests.
Lots of love,
Maxine Hughes (wedding guest) - April 22, 2019
Attended a wedding here on Easter Monday. A fantastic venue, the day went without a hitch due to the fantastic organisation at the venue. Would recommend. The wedding breakfast was wonderful and catered for all dietary requirements. The gardens were lovely to wonder around during the day.
Mrs & Mrs Ferrari - April 20, 2019
To everyone at South Farm,
South Farm is such a beautiful venue and we feel privileged to have had our wedding day there. Thank you for helping everything run so smoothly on the day. Thank you also for the fantastic food – everyone said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had!

Ellise & Ryan - April 18, 2019
Hello South Farm,
Ryan and I would like you all to know how thankful we are to the team at South Farm. Our special day was an absolute dream – all we could have hoped for and more. If we didn’t know any better, we would have thought South Farm had organised the absolute gorgeous weather we had last Thursday too! There really aren’t enough words to express our gratitude to everyone involved in the smooth running of the day, but in particular a HUGE THANKS to Emily who supported us in planning and organising and Summer in her friendly and highly skilled management on the day itself. We really wish we could repeat the day every year!
We will be trying our absolute best to convince any newly engaged friends to book with South Farm so we get to come back!
All the best to the phenomenal South Farm team,
Shauna & Jay Nash - April 17, 2019
We cannot recommend South Farm highly enough! All the way from booking our wedding with them over a year before, up until after our big day their customer service was faultless and they made everything so personal!!
Our day was everything we could ever have dreamt of and the staff were incredible – particularly Helga who ensured everything went to plan and was perfect. The venue speaks for itself – it’s absolutely stunning and so unique.
Memories we will cherish forever thanks to South Farm and all its amazing staff! We can’t thank you enough!
Reb and Arthur Desbois - April 15, 2019
Dear Emily, Summer, Helen, Alli and everyone else at South Farm!!!
Firstly, THANK YOU SO MUCH for such an amazing day back in April! The wedding was absolutely incredible and we are still reeling from the efforts, professionalism, and ease from the South Farm Team on the day! We wouldn’t have changed a single moment and are so grateful to you all for making this special day so special! Helen, you were so awesome and thank you for making our friends and family so welcome!!! They all loved it, and have not stopped talking about the wedding, or South Farm since!
I also have to say how wonderfully helpful and supportive you have all been throughout, especially Emily and Alli, and thank you for all of your patience, advice and good humour throughout! Your supplier’s list is incredible, and in using Sarah for Hair and Makeup, Gary for Music, Bea for Photography, and Gray’s Coaches made the day so simple and easy! They are all fantastic at what they do, and we felt so supported throughout! This really is down to your organization and oversight, and is truly impressive…so thank you so much again!
Bea has just sent through the photos from the day and is keen to share them with you too. Please feel free to use any that you would like to, there are some truly stunning photos of the house and buildings! I’m also so happy Bea managed to get so many lovely photos of the little bits and pieces I made for the wedding! I am actually trying to set up a wedding design company, and hope that it will be OK to use some of the photos for my website too. Maybe a bit pie in the sky at this moment, but going for it, and hope to launch in the next few months!
Words can’t describe how wonderful the whole process has been, and how happy Arthur and I are that we chose to get married at South Farm! Sincere thanks to EVERYONE for all of their efforts, and please do pass this on to the incredible team you have!
I feel that I can’t stop saying thank you, and never will…so THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
All the very best,
Tom & Sophie Redman x - April 12, 2019
Dear South Farm,
We cannot thank you enough for helping us to have the most incredible, magical wedding day at your beautiful venue!
Everybody at South Farm was ever so friendly and professional and no question or request was too big of an ask. Our entire planning process was made as straight forward and stress free as possible and we both really enjoyed the experience :)
I cannot believe how calm and relaxed I felt on the morning of our wedding, largely due to the meticulous itinerary that South Farm provide. This paved the way for an immensely enjoyable and fuss free day – everything we could have hoped for!
We both made an effort to pop into the kitchen and give our heartfelt thanks to Will, who created a personalised main course for us, please pass on our appreciation once more!
Fabulous setting, food and entertainment – South farm, you were perfect!
Love,
Lynn & John Kelly (Groom’s Parents) - April 6, 2019
Good evening James,
I am emailing to congratulate you and your team for providing a wonderful venue for our Son, Richard and his new bride Amber. The location and buildings are stunning and efficiently organised.
The food and service of your staff is to be highly commended and Emily provided a friendly but extremely efficient helping hand to the proceedings and no request was too much trouble for her.
We had an amazing day so please pass on our kind thanks to all the staff who made it such a fabulous occasion.
Kind regards
Leigh & Dan - April 5, 2019

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone at South Farm for making our wedding day so special. It was just perfect! Wish we could do it all over again. Everything about South Farm is just amazing. Helen was just brilliant on the day taking away all the stress and making sure it all ran smoothly.
Cara & Martin - March 16, 2019
Hi,
Martin and I wanted to message to extend a huge thank you to all the amazing team at South Farm for our wedding on the 16 March. We knew the moment we walked round South Farm it was the venue for us, in both the run up to the big day and the big day itself you didn’t disappoint… The day excelled all of our expectations and this wouldn’t have happened without each and every one of you.
We felt incredibly looked after on the day, the food was amazing and no request was too much. I don’t know how you all do it day in day out and still manage to deliver each wedding in the grand scale that you do – speechless.
No words will ever cover how much we would recommend you to anyone and everyone looking to tie the knot.
If you can, enjoy some well-earned rest and thanks again for the memories that will last a lifetime.
Kindest Regards
Mr & Mrs Norman - March 8, 2019
Dean Helen & all at South Farm,
Thank you all so much for making our day so perfect! It was everything we dreamed of and more!
Helen you did a fantastic job running our day, it was seamless!
Guests commented on the beautiful food, venue and how lovely the staff were!
Thank you all so much,
Love,
Mike Burchett - March 8, 2019
Dear South Farm,
I just wanted to say THANK YOU to you and your staff for a fantastic wedding on Friday between Colin Norman and Charlotte Winch. I am Charlotte’s Step-Dad and was helping with the organisation/announcements on the day. Your venue is extremely well run and the events on Friday could not have been better. Your staff were extremely helpful and friendly, and I wanted to say a special thank you to Helen, the Event Manager for the day. She made the day run very smoothly and I was very disappointed to not thank her personally before she left, so please would you pass on my personal thanks to her.
I’m so glad that Colin and Charlotte chose your venue for their special day. They were so happy with the result – the venue is not only unique, but made the day extra special for them.
Thanks again!
Sigrid - March 2, 2019
Wonderful in every way – beautiful, fantastic food, superb organisation, very personal and informal, so welcoming and comfortable. A magical place far away from stresses of ordinary life. We absolutely loved South Farm from the first time we arrived in the flower-lined fairy-lit drive, didn’t need to look anywhere else, it was perfect and accommodated all our complex multi-generational requirements without any problems. The tasting evening was one of the best nights out we’ve had! Thoroughly recommend, South Farm is very special.
Sigrid & Derek - March 2, 2019
Hi Summer,
Can we say a huge THANK YOU to you all for making sure our special day was just that. You run such a fabulous and impressive place, every bit was a delight – food, venue, service, accommodation, the whole package. All of our guests commented on how lovely South Farm is, and also how comfortable, easy going, informal and welcoming.
Helga was an awesome Event Manager, I just did as I was told and all was well, it was so nice being looked after so closely the whole day! We will treasure our memories for ever.
We love South Farm and will miss our (frequent in my case) visits.
Warm wishes to all the team,
Rosie De Courcy Robinson - February 23, 2019
What a wonderful venue – exceptional food and beautiful surroundings are further enhanced with the immense customer service and friendly approach the South Farm team adopt. They will be guaranteed to make your special day even more special than you can possibly imagine.
Carole and Steve (Bride’s Parents) - February 17, 2019
Hi,
I just couldn’t let a day go by without thanking everyone for making Annie and Charlie’s wedding such a very special/brilliant day
From when we came to visit you and book, I felt we were in safe hands. Everything was taken care of. On THE day Helen, our Events Manager for the day, was excellent looking after everyone and everything, literally – thank you Helen.
We all certainly enjoyed the whole day – but the comments from our friends have been amazing too. The food – fabulous, setting / venue – brilliant; I could go on. Suffice to say that we will not hesitate to highly recommend your colleagues and venue.
THANK YOU again for making it such a special day for Annie, Charlie and us too!!
Best wishes,
Joe & Katie - February 16, 2019
Hi Emily and team,
Hope you had a good weekend.
We had the perfect day at South Farm for our wedding. We had high expectations from when we first visited, and it surpassed even those. There was no job too small for the excellent team leading up to the day. Your organisation and responsiveness to our many questions and requests made our preparations so much easier.
On the day, our Event Manager, Jane, was extremely professional and fantastic at helping everything run smoothly. We were really impressed that every little detail was taken care of – from liaising with our florist and DJ to thoughtfully saving some canapés for the hungry Bride and Groom!
On the subject of food, the three course meal was a real highlight of the day. Many of our guests, completely unprompted, said that it was the best wedding food that they had ever eaten (and we agree!). Even the breakfast the next day for our overnight guests was delicious!
Thank you for making it a truly special, unforgettable day. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend South Farm to any couples who are looking for a beautiful wedding venue.
Best wishes,
Kerrie Howard - February 11, 2019
I honestly don’t know where to start but South Farm is the most amazing venue! Despite all the weddings they hold they are so organised and think of every little thing. Special thanks to Emily and Alli who helped us with the organisation and planning and a huge thank you to Helen our Event Manager on the day for being just so fantastic! The team really are amazing! They go above and beyond to give you the most individual day.
Emma & Josh Crane xxx - February 9, 2019
To Emily & everyone at South Farm,
We just wanted to say ‘Thank You’ so much for helping us throw our wedding. We had the best & most beautiful day of our lives!! Emily, thank you for making everything feel so effortless and for being there every step of the way!

Gemma Chaffey - February 7, 2019
Literally THE best place to hold your wedding.
The venue is stunning and beautiful without having to do anything to it, it’s rustic charm brings something extra special to your day. The added bonus of all the animals just makes this venue so unique- we can’t wait to see our photos with the piglets!
All the staff at the venue are incredible, literally cannot do enough for you.
For our wedding they went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and ran smoothly due to allergies and pregnancies- literally had nothing to worry about.
Everyone is so friendly and will help in any way you need them to, or will sit back and allow you to just get on with it.
Food was exquisite and all our guests complimented on how good it was.
We couldn’t recommend this venue highly enough!
Gemma & Lee xx - February 7, 2019
Hi all,
First of all we just want to say thank you so much for everything you did for us on the run up to the wedding and on the day- you were all amazing!!
You all literally went above and beyond to help with our nut allergy making sure everything was nut free, accepting that you couldn’t serve certain alcohol, changing the food, checking the soaps and lotions, making sure your staff hadn’t eaten nuts- this was literally just amazing and I personally really can’t thank you enough for all of that, you made it so comfortable for me and my sister knowing that she was safe and could just enjoy herself, so thank you.
Thank you for allowing us to do something new that you’d never done before with the shot table when everyone walked in, the way you worked with me to make this how we wanted was just brilliant, it was exactly how we wanted, and thank you to the staff for setting that up, it was perfect!
Helga we wanted to thank you for making our day amazing- you were fantastic on the day!! We literally had to worry about nothing with you running our day, you made it all seam free and problem free. You made sure we always had what we needed, honestly you made the day perfect, so thank you so much.
We had the best day and morning after, so thank you all very much, we absolutely loved our wedding day and was so sad when it was over- we wanted to do it all again!
We couldn’t recommend you enough to other people and I know everyone that came to our wedding said how stunning the venue was.
Thank you so much once again- we had an amazing day and that was all due to you and your amazing team at South Farm
Thanks,
Don Simpson (Father of Bride) - January 19, 2019
