Venue Testimonials
We had a wonderful few days at Sparkford Hall celebrating our wedding. It had everything we could have wished for and made the whole thing very special.
Katey G
What a magical place. Sparkford Hall isn't your typical formal wedding venue and that's what makes it so special. The building and grounds are lovely with a very homey and natural feel. The service was amazing and the guys onsite couldn't do enough to help. I'd highly recommend to anyone thinking of hosting a group event or wedding.

We got married here in December and it was absolutely magic - the house is beautiful and the rooms and kitchen are well equipped. There were a myriad of different options given to suit our budget and tailor the weekend to how we wanted it. The sauna and the pool were great and fun additions in the winter. The gardens are beautiful and lovely to have the animals roaming around on site.
