“Wedding cancelled on Christmas Eve”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

We had booked our wedding for Sept 2012, but on Christmas eve 2011, we received a letter notifying us that the company Aspires Venues that owns Chewton Place, had called in the receivers. So like many other unfortunate couples we have lost all of the money that we had paid for our dream wedding. Unfortunatly we didnt take out insurance, because we didnt think in a million years that a place like Chewton Place would fold. We feel sick to our stomach, as it completely ruined our christmas. I know that there are alot worse couples out there, and my heart goes to you.
They say that their internet site is down for Maintenance, well this is the reason why!!!
We have now been invited to attend a meeting on the 13th January, with the creditors.

Dear Lisa P,

I am so sorry about the dreadful time you have had recently as Aspire Venues Ltd went into liquidation and ceased trading on 23rd December 2011. How awful to find this news out so close to Christmas.

As you are probably aware there is a new management operating at Chewton Place and a majority of the bride and grooms who were booked at Chewton Place under Aspire Venues Ltd have now booked with the new managment at Chewton Place. We are delighted we will be able to offer so many couples the day they dreamed of in the venue they love.

Chewton Place is a stunning venue and a beautiful setting to hold your exclusive wedding at and I do hope you are one of the couples who is to celebrate their big day at Chewton.

I would like to wish you and your partner every happiness and hope to welcome you at Chewton Place in the future.

Regards Chewton Place Managment

“poor management”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

We arrived for a wedding weekend booked to start at 1.30pm. We were told our room wouldn't be ready until after the wedding which meant we couldn't change and get ready for the wedding which we found to be very inconvenient. The reason? Guests from the previous day's wedding checked out at 10.30. Surely they could organise their staff to prepare the rooms for 1pm?
We stayed in the lodge, the room was not country house standard and disappointingly bland. The wedding meal and breakfast were both good. The staff, except for reception and slow bar service, were fine.

Room Tip: Stay in hose not lodge

“Wonderfully picturesque!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

This hotel is in a lovely position for travel to Bristol or Bath and in a beautiful location. If you want a tranquil stay for a cheaper price, this is perfect.

The room itself was basic, clean and overlooking the grounds... we couldn't fault it except that it wasn't in the main hotel, but a block over the driveway. This wasn't a particular problem, but it would have been nice to be in the main building.

The food was lovely, even though the service was somewhat lacking (it wasn't busy, but took a long time to take our bar/food order, deliver the food, clear the plates etc) - perhaps because the staff were young / new? This didn't impact the overall stay, but perhaps could do with a few tweaks.

We would definitely reccommend this as a place to stay, especially in the summer where you would be able to wonder the grounds and enjoy the evening.

One tip: check the restaurant times before you book, as they close it if there are events or weddings on. We were a bit annoyed this wasn't mentioned when we booked.

Room Tip: In the main house if possible (restricted due to events) or overlooking the gardens.

“Lovely staff, basic room & value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 October 2011

I stayed with my partner whilst attending a friends wedding and found the grounds, staff and service to be a pleasant surprise. The accomodation was basic but functional for our needs as was only used to change and sleep. The room rate was reasonable considering it is a private wedding venue and include breakfast which was lovely. We didn't have much need to deal with the staff but when we did they were polite, efficient and personable. A lovely stay even if it was a bit of a blur.

“Very disappointing”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 August 2011

person found this review helpful

We stayed here as part of a wedding party. The location and grounds are delightful. The food for the wedding was good. We went for breakfast at about 9:00 and there was not a lot left. We had to wait for coffee whilst a coffee pot was found.The whole weekend was let down by the accommodation. We were in the lodge and the room was poor. The curtain rail was hanging off on one end , there was a stain on the carpet, black mould in the shower etc
