Breath-taking beauty, stunning views and exceptional staff

Oakley Hall truly stood out as a wedding venue due to its combination of breathtaking beauty, stunning views, and exceptional staff. The venue itself is a picturesque setting, with its elegant architecture and beautifully manicured gardens creating a romantic and timeless atmosphere. The surrounding countryside offers stunning views that provide a perfect backdrop for both the ceremony and the photos. Moreover, the staff at Oakley Hall were incredibly warm and attentive, ensuring that every detail was taken care of with a personal touch. Their dedication to making our day special was evident in every interaction, making Oakley Hall not just a beautiful venue, but a genuinely welcoming and memorable place to celebrate such a significant occasion.

We were here for a wedding which was very well organised. We then stayed over for the next day. The hotel is beautiful and immaculate. Meals, rooms, service all excellent, with large grounds to walk in. We will return.

A massive thank you to all staff

A large party of us was here for a wedding, myself and 3 other women were bridesmaids. Unfortunately, 10 minutes before the ceremony, my dress had ripped really badly. The absolutely amazing staff who helped, Tim, Lauren and Gemma, quickly and efficiently started pinning my dress back together and helped make it to the ceremony on time. I cannot thank them enough for their amazing effort. The on-site cottage that the bride and bridesmaids slept in was stunning. A lot of room for us to get ready without tripping over each other, comfy beds and soft bedding. The entire grounds are beyond words, such a beautiful building and site. Once again a massive thank you to all the staff who helped make the entire day a roaring success! A large party of us was here for a wedding, myself and 3 other women were bridesmaids.

We cannot recommend them enough

We had our wedding at this hotel recently & we cannot recommend them enough. The hotel itself is beautiful, with spacious & modern rooms & fabulous grounds. We were treated with such professionalism & care from the moment we started communicating with the hotel staff. Our wedding ran so smoothly from start to finish & it was all thanks to the hospitality team. If you are expecting a top quality 4 star hotel with the best service then this is the place for you!

The day was absolutely amazing, the whole team went above and beyond. We could not have asked for more and our guests were blown away as well!

The outside ceremony was amazing.

From the first meeting with Edel and the team at the wedding fair to the day itself, everyone has been absolutely amazing! Charlie on the day was also absolutely fantastic, he seemed to be absolutely everywhere, while still being discreet which was great. The outside ceremony was amazing. The great part was that were we in the shade while the ceremony took place which meant we were comfortable and not too warm. The food as well was perfect, we had so many complements from our guests which was lovely.
