Picture perfect venue
Absolutely amazing day! Cannot praise High House, and Jessica in particular, enough! The venue is stunning, had so many compliments and it was the only venue we looked at as we were so blown away with the attention to detail and how picture prefect it all was. Jessica and the team are all so friendly and make you feel so comfortable and relaxed, which is really important on such a big day. Would highly recommend this wedding venue to anyone.

Fell in love the moment I set foot there
I fell in love with High House the moment I set foot there. The grounds are absolutely stunning and the venue itself is breathtaking. You really don't need to dress the venue as it's beautiful dressed already! We had Jessica as our wedding coordinator, she was absolutely brilliant, so lovely and easy to get along with. All the staff here were lovely. I can not fault them at all.

Breathtaking....
We couldn't be happier with our choice of having High house as our wedding venue! From the first visit to the final moments of our celebration, the team went above and beyond to make every detail perfect. The venue itself is breathtaking—elegant, beautiful, and picturesque. Our guests loved it, and we still get compliments on the venue now! One of the things that truly made our day special was the support from the venue staff and our planner Dalain. They were all incredibly attentive.

Perfect setting
We loved High House as soon as we got out of the car at an open day and penciled our date in before we left that day. The venue provided the perfect setting and all staff worked magically around us. A special mention has to go to our wedding coordinator Jessica who went above and beyond. We had the best day!

Perfect wedding day
We had a perfect wedding day at the beginning of October, with Jessica as coordinator, everything went smoothly and just as we had laid out in our plans, its a beautiful place, our family also stayed in the farm house which was great. Kieran one of the onsite DJs did a brilliant job on the night. (Shout out to Simply bows and Heavenly Petals also to making the day complete!)

So proud to say we got married here!
We got married on Friday 13th September 2024 and the venue couldn’t have given us more help and support leading up to and on the day of our wedding. We never expected our day could run so smoothly without any issues! Everyone loved the venue and how stunning it was, It was truly worth every penny and we're so proud to say we got married here! The venue is so well thought out, it really took a lot of stress away from us! Everyone LOVED the food by Valentine cuisine who the venue work closely with

We could never choose just one, as we have had so many amazing weddings here and they all unique. We absolutely love helping couples put their own special touches on the venue and making the day their own.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Think about what you want for your day and not what you 'think' you should have. We really encourage our couples to think about what they love and enjoy and make those things part of their day.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

One of our brides had sadly lost her dad not long before her wedding day. She wanted to have something here that would remind her of her dad throughout the day, he loved fishing so she set up a chair and fishing rod next to our pond which overlooks our reception drinks space. It was a lovely touch to remember her dad.
