What people are saying...
Absolutely amazing venue. Staff couldn’t have done more to help.

From the very start al the staff we met were welcoming. It gave us confidence we had chosen well, and all of our guests on the day definitely agreed.

We booked our wedding at late notice and only gave the team at Blacknest 9 weeks. We had cancellations and menu changes right up to the day before and nothing was too much trouble for them. The venue is clean, tidy and has a very relaxed feel about it. This is largely due to the staff that work there and the very warm welcome you receive from day one.

We wouldn’t change a thing about Saturday - the staff are all so lovely and we have had nothing but compliments about the day, the rooms and the food. We can’t thank you enough.

We would just like to say a huge THANKYOU for helping our day run so smoothly and make it such a fantastic event. We can't fault you all from beginning to end.

We absolutely LOVED everything about our wedding day, we got SO much positive feedback from our guests who said that the Tipi is one of, if not the best wedding venue they have ever been too. The food was great and there was plenty of it, and the presentation of the drinks with the bar looked amazing. We honestly have no negative feedback on the venue, staff or food etc... Thank you again for all your effort and being so responsive throughout all the planning.

Saturday was more than we hoped it would be, we had the best day and we have you all to thank for this too so massive thank you to Hayley, Steph and the rest of your team with all your help to make the day so wonderful! The team have been great from start to finish of our wedding planning, doing their best to make our day what we wanted. The venue is such a gem and we are so glad we found it – the day and setting couldn’t have been more perfect from the Tipi, the pavilion, the food, the camping facilities, we couldn’t fault any of it.

Thank you to everyone at Blacknest who made our Wedding Day so special. We could not have asked for a more beautiful venue, delicious food or more courteous staff! Nothing was too much effort for Hayley and her team. Our whole day was personalized just as we want it. All of our guests have commented since saying what a beautiful venue Blacknest is, with wonderful staff and delicious food. By Alex & Rachel, Date of Wedding - 27 Jul 2019

We'd like to say a massive thank you for making our day so special. We enjoyed every part of it - well except the downpour in the morning. Thank you for all your help and support we had a simply magical day where the staff at Blacknest seamlessly camouflaged into the background making sure everything happened at the right times but without seeming too present and in the way. Organisation was second to none and Hayley was always at hand to advise and guide us. They were so supportive throughout and they put myself and my husband at ease at all times.
By Dani & Luke, Date of Wedding - 20 Jul 2019
Thank you so much for everything. We had the absolute best wedding ever and we are so grateful to you and all the team for your hard work in making it perfect. The food was amazing, the hospitality was perfect, and since our first contact dealing with you has been so easy - you are a really lovely person and you honestly made our day perfect, we can't thank you enough.

Fantastic original Wedding venue. Stunning Tipi! Wonderful fire pit. Great relaxed venue. We had 40 guests camping and a great breakfast was out on the following morning. Friendly staff. Wedding manager Hayley was fantastic at overseeing everything and calm and professional and forever helpful. All our guests and family loved it. Perfect with the number of children we had who ran around and had a great time. Thank you Blacknest!

Venue is very unique and our guests were blown away by how nice it was. Very relaxed and flexible venue, no excessive rules and will cater for whatever food/drink you want. Made our Wedding feel special. Lovely accommodation available.
By Kayleigh & Dean, Date of Wedding – 26 Aug 2019
We had the most amazing Wedding Day which Blacknest helped to make as magical and amazing as we imagined. The venue is a beautiful Tipi with a relaxed feel amongst beautiful grounds. We had garden games set up outside, a photo booth camper and an ice cream camper, which all worked perfectly and nothing was too much for the lovely Blacknest staff to help make it happen. The team were very accommodating with our ideas. I cannot fault a single thing and highly recommend this venue.
By Katie & Ben, Date of Wedding – 07 Sep 2019
Staff are amazing, helpful and so polite they can’t have been more help they went above and beyond. Hayley and Rachael two of the most wonderful people. I wish that we could do it all over again. The venue was spotless and all staff on the ball, would highly recommend.
By Sue & Andy, Date of Wedding – 28 Aug 2019
Hayley and her team were outstanding with their support, advice and reassurance. We never felt like we were being a nuisance and messages and emails were responded to quickly and efficiently. The rooms were all set up in time and at no time did I feel like they weren’t in control. All food and beverages were fantastic and our guests complimented the food from canapes, to three course meal to evening food. I can’t tell you how happy we were with everything and how well we felt the day went.
By Amelia & David, Date of Wedding 06 Sep 2019
The woodlands Tipi fitted our Wedding perfectly. A unique beautiful venue which wowed our guests. We toasted marshmallows, lit sparklers on the fire pit. The kids were able to play safely and happily outside. We were able to personalize the Tipi with our own touches of bunting, flowers, balloons to really make it our own. The staff were professional and helpful, assisting us in every way possible. Blacknest made our Wedding just as we imagined, we wouldn’t change a thing.
