I'm so fussy! Haha. Suppose you have the right to be when spending so much money on ONE day! Agree with whats been said about Leasowe castle, Thornton hall etc. I feel alot of places are a bit 'tatty' looking!

Hello,

I am looking for vedding venues atm.
So far I've looked at:

Leasowe Castle - I have to agree that this was quite shabby inside.

The Ship Hotel, Parkgate - This was gorgeous but way too small (food was delish).

We are now going to look at:
The grange country club, Thornton Hough
Brook Meadow, Childer Thornton
Woodcote House, Hooton
Hulme Hall, Port Sunlight.

If anyone has any comments on these venues it would be appreciated to hear your experiences. Also if anyone has any more venues that I could add to my list that would be appreciated also. I cannot afford Hillbark, Thornton hall etc.

Thanks x x x

The Grange is good.

Swerve Hillbark, honestly.

Hollins Hey is quite nice.

Won't be going to the river hill. First I emailed them and asked about an evening buffet and they sent info for a day meal. Then I asked again about the evening and the guy asked for my number so I emailed and gave him it and said specifically not to phone me untill after 16.30 as I am in work. So he just phoned me, left a voicemail and rang again.

If they can't listen to what info you want, I can't see them listening to what you want doing on the day.

Rant over lol

I found that with sheldrakes! None of the staff don't seem to be allowed/know how to answer any questions you have it has to be the manager you speak to... I gave up trying to get hold of her though! Everytime i phoned it was 'she's not in sorry'. Like you say thats not what you want for your big day! Lol

Have been told that the Hotel at The Ellesmere Port Boat Museum is very good and inexpensive for wedding breakfast:www.hiellesmereport.com

Added The grove and The Holiday Inn to my list to check out.

Yesterday I visited:
Woodcote - This was too small for my guests to fit in

Brook meadow - which was nice but too expensive

Inglewood manor - this was loverly and they do a buffet with bacon batches which I thought was cool.

The Grange Country Club - This was also very nice.

We are now looking at closer venues and going to weigh up the nicer ones with being closer to home. I have now added the Lauries and The Williamson Art Gallery and the heatherlands in Thurtstaston to my list, any reviews will be extremely appreciated.
