Wedding Reviews
Our whole team absolutely LOVE what we do! It gives us immense pleasure to be a part of such special occasions and it makes it even more wonderful when we receive such lovely feedback from brides and grooms about their wedding at Rockbeare Manor, our gorgeous wedding venue in Devon.
We're proud to share a small selection of some of the wonderful words of thanks that we have received…
Rockbeare, you were fantastic from start to finish. The venue was beautiful, the staff were friendly and made us feel so relaxed, they took care of everything and the food was incredible too. We wouldn't have changed a thing and can't recommend them enough!

Now that we are back to normality after the most amazing few weeks, we just wanted to say a huge thank you to Davy and the team for the most incredible wedding. We had the best time and everything was so well organised and went so smoothly, all thanks to you and all the Rockbeare Manor staff. We are so grateful, and we can’t thank you enough for making our big day so special!

Dear Leah, Jess and the Rockbeare Team,
We thought we'd drop you a quick note to say thank you so much for making our Wedding day truly special. Leah, you and the team worked so hard and everyone was really impressed with how the day was organised. The venue was beautiful, and you have helped create a seamless day with minimum stress. We couldn’t have been happier with how the day went and we really appreciate the hard work that everyone went to. You managed to turn our vision into reality and all the bits that we wanted moved were moved perfectly.
The wedding breakfast and pizza's were delicious! The Gin cocktail went down a storm - I forget how many times I've been asked if I can grab the recipe and thank you for your wedding cheese cake suggestion which was beautifully displayed.
The morning breakfast was again delicious and beautifully presented. We really appreciate the little touches that you went to in moving some of our decorations into the room, making the morning feel an extension to our wedding.
Thank you for everything you did and putting up with all our questions and lists. You really did make our day perfect.

Words cannot express our gratitude to Will, and the Rockbeare Manor team. Your support, guidance, and generosity both in the lead up and on the day of the wedding mean the world to us. We truly could not have chosen a better venue or a better team to support us through out new chapter.

Dear Davy, We would like to thank you and the team for all your hard work in organising the wedding of our dreams. It was such a fabulous day and we know that it wouldn’t have been possible without you and the broader team at Rockbeare Manor. It is such a special venue and you all thoroughly deserve the reviews and awards you are receiving.
The day went very smoothly from our perspective and you were a fantastic coordinator on the day!
So that leaves us to say thank you once again for making the day so special. Our gut feel about the venue was certainly right and will remember the day fondly.

As the Father of the Bride I am writing to thank you and your staff for your superb service on the 8th of July. I have always worked in customer facing services and have to compliment you on your attention to detail at every stage of our day which went without a hitch.
I was so impressed by the table service, something many guests spoke to me about, which was so fluid and efficient. I also noticed how you placed the flowers throughout the weekend to best effect without any prompting.
The food was excellent and the evening food just kept coming throughout the evening so that guests could enjoy hot pizza at a time to suit them. The accommodation was beautiful and spotlessly clean.
Somehow you managed to give us excellent and attentive service whilst being so discreet it was almost as if things just happened by magic.
On behalf of myself and my wife I would like to thank you so much for making our time with you so special. Please pass our thanks on to all your staff who contributed to making our day such a success.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you to Aimee and the team for looking after us so well on our wedding day. You were all absolutely fantastic!
We had the most perfect, brilliant day that we will never forget, and you were all a huge part in that.
Rockbeare Manor will always be an incredibly special place to us.

I was blown away by all your employees hard work during the wedding. As a guest who has been in the hospitality industry since my 20’s , I cannot give enough praise to your young staff, they were exceptional. Mature, confident , took charge of all aspects of the day.
I love your venue, the food was utterly impeccable and faultless. I would wholeheartedly recommend your prestigious establishment.
Well done, you have a perfect business!

Where do I even begin? From the bottom of our hearts, the biggest of thank yous to Steph, and the amazing staff at Rockbeare Manor.
Our day wouldn't have been possible without you and we cannot believe how smoothly and perfectly everything ran.
We had so many compliments on the food as well, which was absolutely divine!
We truly hope we can return one day as Rockbeare Manor gave us the most wonderful day of our lives.
Lots and lots of love and a huge thank you again.

THANK YOU Steph for organising, helping and everything you did to make our day run smoothly.
I really appreciate the time you took from making me an alternative bouquet, to sorting the confetti last minute, to easing my mind about music, letting me have a sneak peak, answering all my emails and everything in between. Excellent job! It’s all about the little things for brides.
Rockbeare Manor was beautiful, the food was great, the staff were helpful and quick. It all ran so well. We are both so pleased and want to pass on our thanks and appreciation that we made the BEST choice to have our wedding at Rockbeare Manor!

Davy, we just want to say a huge thank you for making our day run smoothly. Even during the panic and stress, (mostly felt by me) you kept nice and calm and reassured us that things will be fine - including the weather and how lucky we’re we! The day couldn’t have been more perfect, so thanks again for being so great and a huge thank you to the team for setting up and making everything look beautiful. I couldn’t recommend you guys and the venue enough!

Where do I start! Rockbeare was the most amazing venue. The staff are brilliant, and it truly felt like we were in our own little world for our wedding day! Lauren coordinated our day for us, and she was an absolute trooper! She didn’t stop from the moment when we arrived to when we left the next day. She was friendly, (as were all the staff) she had a lovely welcoming personality and made sure we, as well as our guests were all looked after and had some time to ourselves. They were all so accommodating to us before our wedding day and during the day as well.
We honestly are so thankful to you all and are just sad it’s all over! We would recommend Rockbeare Manor to anyone wanting to have a wedding, it’ll be the best decision you make!

There are no words to describe how wonderful this place is. It is stunning, inside and out. The staff are all so friendly, helpful and professional - they really make it come alive. The food is absolutely sublime. The accommodation is gorgeous, modern and comfortable but in keeping with the beautiful building and feel of the place.
Rockbeare Manor is just perfect!
The getting ready room for the girls is a wonderful space and really special.
Our wedding was in December so there was candlelight everywhere which was exquisite, but I am sure it would suit a summer wedding too as the grounds are so gorgeous. I cannot recommend it enough!

Our daughter had her wedding at Rockbeare Manor last Saturday (1st October) and I would like to thank you, and all your staff, for making it such a wonderful occasion for all who attended, but most importantly for Katy and her fiancé, Steve.
Every single member of your staff from Jess, our Wedding Coordinator for the day, through to your bar staff, waitresses, to those cleaning up on the Sunday morning, were a real pleasure to meet and interact with. All were polite, cheerful, helpful and professional, a real credit to your organisation. What struck us most, considering the number of weddings you must host on a weekly basis, your staff still made Steve and Katy feel very special as if theirs was the one and only wedding and they wanted to do everything in their power to ensure it was a successful day. This they certainly achieved in abundance.
As you will no doubt be well aware, Rockbeare Manor and the grounds it is set in, along with its talented chefs, makes for the most perfect wedding venue. However, without the right staff to back this up all that would count for very little in the end. Certainly, from the experience Steve and Katy and all of us had that day then it appears that the Rockbeare Manor does have it all. So again, thank you very much for making it such a wonderful day and we do with you every success for the future.

Aimee and Andy, we hope that you do not mind us contacting you, however, when you have experienced the most magical day in your life so far and it has all been made possible by such a wonderful team we felt the need to email you.
Firstly, we wanted to say a huge thank you to Cameron. Words will never ever be enough to express the gratitude we have for him. Through his hard work and dedication everything at Rockbeare was completely and utterly perfect and with our large number of guests and unusual requests we recognise this was no mean feat. He always had a can-do attitude, filled us with immense confidence and did us absolutely proud throughout every stage of our wedding. He is a credit to your team and we are so grateful to him. Jess was also phenomenal and made us feel so relaxed and happy from our first meeting on Wednesday.
Secondly, we wanted to say a huge thank you to your catering team. The food was outstanding and to create a canapé reception and wedding breakfast that was entirely coeliac friendly we recognise would have been a challenge. However, once again your team was phenomenal, and people have commented that it was the best wedding food they have ever had!!!
Finally, a huge thank you goes to all of your staff. We have received feedback from our guests regarding how friendly the staff were, how they couldn’t do enough to help anyone and everyone worked immensely hard to achieve our dream day. You will never realise how grateful we are to each and every person who played a part in our real-life fairytale and we will forever be in debt to you all.
Thank you so much to everyone at Rockbeare. You have honestly made our dreams come true!!! We will recommend you to everyone we possibly can and hope that one day another of our friends celebrates their wedding with you so that we can return,
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for everything!!!

Where do I even start?! From the bottom of our hearts, we can't thank you enough for EVERYTHING that you did for us on Thursday.
From start to finish the whole team were amazing. We couldn't have asked for anything else. We felt like the most important people in the world and that's all down to you and your absolutely incredible team. You all put in so much effort to support and get us through it all.

There are no words to explain the amazing perfect in every way beauty and professionalism of this venue.
My beautiful daughter and fabulous (now) son in law got married here on Saturday 7th August it has given me as father of the bride the most total feeling of perfection.
Every tiny detail was addressed, the staff were so helpful, and the marriage ceremony left me with more than lump in my throat and tears in my eyes.
Thank you so much Rockbere Manor for making their day so so perfect.
