    If we could give more than 5 stars we definitely would. We had our wedding at The Milwards Estate in August 2022 and the day was perfect! The venue is absolutely stunning. We got married in the beautiful coach house (although there is the option to get married outside right next to the lake) and we had the reception in the marquee (which has a bar and great sized dance floor!). The venue really does have everything you need in one place. The staff at Milwards are truly amazing and we cannot give then enough praise for everything they did for us, from our first visit, right up to the big day! Clare and Maria were so helpful, speaking with us about how we would like the day to run, making it individual to us, and ensured the day ran smoothly. Chris worked his magic with playing our playlist and creating a beautiful atmosphere with the lighting. Everyone was so accommodating, especially with our guest alpacas and fire spinner. We had the most magical day and really couldn't have asked for a better venue, and experience.

    We recently got married at Milwards House, and I can honestly say we made the best choice choosing to have our ceremony here, it truly made the day. Clare & Maria are just the nicest humans who made the day incredibly special, and were there with us every step of the way. Nothing was too much of an ask, and they were just so organised and chill throughout... they made us feel so welcome and valued, and worked hard to ensure our special day went without a hitch. The venue is incredible, with great facilities and really warm / intimate feel to the place. If you are thinking about choosing this as a venue, don't hesitate, you wont be disappointed!
