Beautiful location BUT tight turnaround for guests coming and going doesn't make for a relaxing wedding., the wedding was a success and great fun thanks only to the bride and groom and their friend's disco. To say the food was bad is putting it mildly. thin carrot soup, boiled sausages and a "cheesecake" that hadn't set. Insulting.

We came here for a friends wedding last weekend. The house is just beautiful and the grounds stunning. Throughout the day the staff were extremely helpful and discreet. The house was presented to an excellent standard keeping all of its charm. My only criticism was that on my table our main course was rather salty this was commented on by... More

I stayed here with my girlfriend, for her sister`s wedding. The setting is spectacular and very romantic. The grounds are well kept and views are beautiful and excellent for the wedding photographs. All rooms within the manor house are spacious and very oldie-worldy!! The staff were excellent and helpful. If you`re planning a wedding in this area please go and... More

We stayed at the Clock Tower cottage the evening before the wedding at the end of February. The cottage was very warm and well appointed in an idyllic setting and created the perfect start to a fabulous weekend. The wedding itself then went without a hitch and all staff were incredibly attentive and polite. The slating of the ceremony setting... More

I have to passionately disagree with Neil T's review. What people must understand when being a guest at a wedding at Orchardleigh House is that it is NOT a hotel (that's the charm!). You are a guest in someone's very sumptuous and idyllic home, for your exclusive use. There are no locks on the doors because you are residing in... More

As a wedding venue, right from the start I was surprised to find that everything took place in the hallway! The house is a grand setting but a lack of organisation and attention to detail and cleanliness, disappoint. You can't check in to the room until 1pm even when the ceremony starts at 2pm which doesn't leave sufficient time to... More

The wedding venue 'Orchardleigh House' is supposedly very sought after.. Picturesque at the back of the house but sadly the ceremony was held in the corridor of the house, very cramped and seated on poorly maintained chairs which were extremely dangerous. In the alloted time between the photography session and the reception breakfast there is a distinct lack of seating... More

We stayed here for a night in the bell tower and could not fault the cottage. Clean, very spacious, glorious four poster bed. We had such a great night and would stay again. This is our second time here now- we got married at Orchardleigh in 2011

We stayed on this magnificent country estate in Somerset in February. We were really lucky with the weather too. The Garden Cottage is part of the renovated old stables complex and it was just lovely. The kitchen was very large and had everything we need. Bedrooms were big, bathrooms all quite new and a lovely sitting/dining room overlooking the large... More

We recently stayed in Rosies Cottage which is an annex attached to the main house. Firstly we told them we had a baby so they gave us a travel cot (which was dumped in the corner of the room, not even put up) and the only place you can put it is by the toilet door which you can't then... More
