Our friends and family absolutely loved it and I’m sure we’ll be talking about it with them for a long time to come. Micklefield is a very special place to us, and we feel so lucky that we found you!

Yasemin & Peter's Postponed Wedding ~ 2020

★★★★★

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank you and all the staff for providing a fabulous day for Tayla and Azy’s wedding. It didn’t matter that the weather let us down – it meant that everyone either congregated in the hall or by the fireside toasting marshmallows. We have received no end of compliments about the venue, the food and the atmosphere, it all ended up being the perfect day – just what Tayla and Azy wanted. Please also pass on our compliments to Lauren who provided so much on the day.

Tayla & Azy's Wedding ~ October 2019

★★★★★

I am getting the most fantastic feedback about last Sunday. Everyone who was there thought the Barn, the location, the staff, the food and the service were amazing. I can’t thank you enough and I am so grateful to you for your generosity, your time and effort on my behalf. I was very happy with everything on Sunday, I love your Barn and I walked in and just went “Wow” but it is wonderful to hear Sarratt people being so enthusiastic about about your venue. A pity I didn’t invite twice the number!

80th Birthday Party ~ October 2019

★★★★★

I am Jenny, the celebrant from yesterday’s wedding and I wanted to write to say thank you for having me at the barn and to also highlight how impressed I was with your team at the venue. I am fortunate enough to work at many lovely venues across the South but what I experienced yesterday was nothing short of amazing. Your staff (in particular Abby) were all friendly, helpful very knowledgeable and the process and cues on the day were just the ticket. The venue itself is beautiful and has a wonderful feel about it. It has become one of my favourites.

Celebrant ~ September 2019

Wow wow wow!!!! We’ve finally landed back down on earth after being on cloud nine from the most incredible day. I don’t think we could ever thank you enough for how perfect our day was / ran. We have had countless comments on how stunning the venue is and with the sun beaming down on the grounds I think it’s safe to say it’s a place everyone will remember for a very long time. Lauren, you were incredible!!! I think you noticed that I may have ran events and been a project manager before so I apologise for keeping on asking you if everything was running ok! You kept us so at ease and we cannot thank you enough for every single thing you have done for us. I hope it wasn’t to stressful for you and you wasn’t too tired on Saturday! All the staff were amazing. Perfect day at the perfect venue! There is nothing I would have changed if I had to do it all over again – it really was everything we imagined and more!! Thank you once again!

Gabs & Jon's Wedding ~ September 2019

★★★★★

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the whole team for the best. Day. Ever. We had so many people tell us how beautiful the venue was & how it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to. Lauren was amazing, she deserves an award I don’t think I saw her sit still for even a second!

Marcos & Rebecca ~ August 2019

★★★★★

Just a line to say thank you so much to you and your team for making our wedding on the 10th August go with such amazing ease and fun. We had the most brilliant day and a huge part of that is thanks to you for keeping it running so smoothly. The barn looked absolutely amazing and we have had so many comments from our guests saying how beautiful it was as a venue. The guests who stayed in the rooms all said how great they were (and how delicious the breakfast was!). Thank you to you personally for being such a calm and positive presence in the run up – we really appreciated it!

Rosie & Alex's Wedding ~ August 2019

★★★★★

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and your team for last Sunday. I can honestly say, in nearly 20 years of organising events this is only the second time I have been completely blown away by a venue and its team. They were so efficient, friendly and worked incredibly hard. Special thanks must go to Lauren – she is truly outstanding and I can’t believe she can be so good and so young! She preempted everyone’s requirements and didn’t stop all day and night. She is an absolute star!!! Honestly we couldn’t have managed without you all and thank you once again.

Guys what can we say other than thank you thank you thank you! Our day was more magical and spectacular than we could have imagined and both of you helped to create that magic. Thank you for all your support in ensuring our day was perfect. Micklefield is truly amazing along with your fantastic team and we wish you every future success with more magic moments created in your magic kingdom. The accommodation was great and our yummy breakfast was the perfect send off for our magical weekend. We would have no hesitation in recommending you to people we know for future events. Many thanks again for everything

Hayley & Paul's Wedding ~ June 2019

★★★★★

I am writing to you to say a big Thank You for all your hard work and organisation on 14th June for Sachin and Mani’s wedding. They had the wedding they desired, in large part, due to you and your team. The weather presented a massive challenge and instead of taking the easy out, you did everything possible to have the ceremony outside which is what they dearly wanted. All the feedback from the family and friends have been amazing. Everyone loved the venue. At a personal level, it has been really stress free from my point of view as you and your team inspired such confidence. Nothing was too much for you. In your absence, Julie was up to date with the events and could help with any queries I had. Great teamwork and professionalism. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping to organise a very special day.

Mother of the Bride ~ June 2019

★★★★★

We just wanted to thank you all for helping us have the most perfect day. We’ve had so many people comment on how amazing the whole day was down to the spectacular venue and attentive staff. We really couldn’t have asked for more!

Katie & Paul's Wedding ~ 2018

★★★★★

Firstly, a big thank you to you and your team. Emma and John had a wonderful day and much of it was down to the way you calmly and cheerfully steered us all through the day’s proceedings and the evening’s celebrations. It could not have gone any better. Once again thank you. Your patience and good humour throughout, were much appreciated.

Father of the groom ~ 2018

★★★★★

I don’t even know where to begin, Micklefield was the venue we never knew we’d always dreamt about. It was pure perfection and safe to say we both fell totally in love with the venue the first time we saw it and it absolutely blew our expectations on our big day. Walking down the grass aisle to the temple for the ceremony was so special and the whole area looked breathtaking, as did the barn, the rose gardens, and lawn. Everyone was commenting on what an amazing venue it was and how stunning the whole place looked. Thanks for all your support and help throughout the planning process with any question we had and helping make our ideas come to life – you have all been amazing. The bridal suite was also fab for getting ready in with all the girls and thanks to Anna for even fluffing my dress before heading down the aisle. I just wish we could do it again. Micklefield is such an amazing venue run by a lovely team and we feel very lucky to have started our married life there.

Mr & Mrs Child's Wedding ~ 2018

★★★★★

We’re just back from our mini-moon and wanted to say thanks so much for everything on our wedding day! We were over the moon that we could have the ceremony outside and that the weather stayed dry for us. We had so many comments about how beautiful the venue was and how well organised the day was. We just want to do it all over again! Thank you for making it so special for us.

Emma & Ian's Wedding ~ 2018

★★★★★

We just wanted to say a massive thanks to all at Micklefield for making our wedding day so perfect. It really was the most amazing day. Throughout the planning stages, you were so helpful – very patient with my hundreds of questions and really helped us tailor the day to suit what we wanted. Every member of staff we came across on the day was fantastic – nothing was too much trouble. The venue itself was just breathtaking and we have had many guests comment on how beautiful it is. What a gorgeous sunny day it was – we were really able to utilise all the grounds and it was just perfect.

Claire & Steve's Wedding ~ May 2018

★★★★★

I wanted to drop you a line to pass on our thanks to you and your colleagues for Saturday’s joyous occasion. As soon as we saw Micklefield we were pretty sure that was the venue for us, and we were always totally confident that you personally would make everything run as smoothly as possible, both leading up to the day and on the day. You didn’t disappoint us. We were so confident of your organisational skills that we were able to leave all of that to you and to devote ourselves to each other, to our guests, and to having the time of our lives. Please accept our heartfelt thanks for all of your hard work, commitment and patience – you played a very substantial role in creating a near perfect day for 120 of us, which is something you should be immensely proud of. Anna and Jamie are very lucky to have employees like you.

Bride & Groom ~ 2018

★★★★★

Thank you again for all you did on Saturday, seeing Sarah’s gorgeous photos in her blog has brought it all back to us (you were so right, her pictures are fantastic in spite of the rain!). Thank you all for being so patient with all our questions over the past few months and for reassuring us whenever we were worried… especially when we were anxious about the weather. On the day, you were all so cheerful and amazingly efficient – moving tables, chairs, music, flowers, guests and, of course, the bridal party- we love the blog photo, Anna, of you, bouquet in hand, holding an umbrella over Emma who is revealing yards of net underskirt! We have so many very happy memories of the day and your beautiful venue, THANK YOU!

Mother & Father of the Bride ~ 2018

Thank you so much for making our day so special (even with the snow). Your hard work and attention to detail was greatly appreciated. Good luck for the 2018 wedding season, the brides and grooms are very lucky to be working with you.

Laura & Will's Wedding ~ March 2018

★★★★★

Just wanted to say a huge thank you for such an amazing day on the 14th of October, and for making life so easy throughout the whole wedding planning process. We could not have hoped for a better experience. Everything was so seamless on the day and the barn looked absolutely stunning, we were blown away by it all and so were our guests. It was perfect. Thank you so much, we just wish we could do it all over again! Many thanks.

Danielle and Andy's Wedding ~ March 2017

★★★★★

“We just wanted to say a huge thank you for giving us such a fantastic day on Saturday. Yours was the first venue we visited after getting engaged and we knew immediately that it was perfect for us. The Great Barn was the perfect setting for both the ceremony and the party and we are delighted the weather allowed us to take photos in your beautiful grounds. Your team were so incredibly helpful on the day which meant that we could fully relax and enjoy the day knowing everything was under control! Thank you again for everything and for giving us a day we will never forget
