We had the most amazing wedding day at the Coniston Hotel Country Estate & Spa. The ceremony held in the Garnett room was beautiful and the setting definitely made it so special and romantic. We were lucky to get some great photos on the jetty by the lake.
Our guests had a fantastic time with…

A beautiful and well organised day. The staff were very polite and helpful, on reception and around the hotel. I didn’t personally get the opportunity to meet the owner of the establishment, but he arranged for free transfer to the lake for photos and included a bottle of champagne. This was very…

much appreciated as the photographer only had a small car. The views are amazing for photos and we got some amazing ones! The waiters during the wedding breakfast were lovely and made sure we were well looked after. It was fantastic to have full use of Winstons barn all day, especially as it was a small group. Great value for money all round and we enjoyed the activities included in our package. The only downside was a 10:30am start at the spa the following day. In hindsight we should have asked to alter this, but we missed the first few hours due to packing up and checking out. It took longer than anticipated. Other than that, a very enjoyable and memorable time.

Wow, Where do we start……
We would just like to say a huge thank you to everyone at Coniston Hotel for making our Wedding Day so so special.
After rearranging our big day three times due to COVID, we couldn’t wait to get married on 19/09/21.
Every little detail was taken care of, and we…

were looked after every step of the way.
A big thank you to Fred for being there on our menu tasting evening. You were great.
A big thank you to Sharon for helping coordinate the run-up to the big day and also to Emily, who was our wedding coordinator on the day who made our special day come true. Everything was just perfect from start to finish.
Thank you so much.
Love,
Laura-Jane and Johnathan Harker

Matthew and I would like to say a BIG thank you to the Coniston hotel and all the staff that made our day so perfect!
We had looked at a few venues before deciding on the Coniston, and it was the best decision we’ve ever made! As well as falling in love with the venue, we both felt that’s the…

coordinators really cared, something which they certainly showcased on the day.
From enquiry, to booking, and throughout planning, the wedding team were always super quick and helpful with answering our questions (even just general wedding queries...I had plenty!).
I had no worries that the team would look after everything on the day. As soon as I handed over the decorations the day before the wedding they looked after everything. They set up the room exactly how I’d imagined and they made sure everyone was in the right place as the right time.
So many guests commented on how good the food was, and many said it’s the best meal they have ever had at a wedding.
The evening team were also amazing! Dave really made sure we were looked after and that we had both had a drink in our hand!
Everyone says that on your day little stuff will go wrong and that’s ok, but I can genuinely say that it was perfect, which truly is testament to the Coniston hotel wedding team.
Special mention to Sharon, Sophie Baker, Sophie Cokell, and Dave.

taken care of by the wedding events team.
A personal thank you to Sharon who coordinated our day. Sharon thank you so much your professionalism. Your fantastic personality really did shine through and our day went without a hitch. You made us both feel so relaxed knowing that everything was in your capable hands. Thank you so much!
The food was absolutely fantastic! The canapés, the starter, main and the dessert WOW! Chocolate brownie was a massive hit with everyone! Our guests all gave us great compliments about all of the food.
The Coniston Hotel is such a gorgeous setting and we are so pleased we chose here to start our life together and celebrate with our family and friends. The views were such a hit with all of our guests and with us! It is simply stunning inside and out.
Thank you Coniston for making our day so perfect and making our dreams a reality!
We will remember our special day for the rest of our lives together and we will definitely be visiting whenever we can!
We would recommend The Coniston Hotel without any doubt at all!
With Love

It was the first venue we visited and we felt that it would be the perfect setting for our special day. However, we decided to visit a few more venues over the coming weeks but during these visits we always ended up comparing them to The Coniston... Needless to say we ended up booking for Friday…

21st July 2017 with the help of Sharon, who was excellent throughout the booking process and was totally transparent about all the pricing.
From the moment we booked, all the wedding coordinators were readily available and extremely quick in responding to all our questions/queries via email and phone. After a few months we found out that our designated wedding coordinator would be Sophie Baker - we cannot praise and thank Sophie enough. We felt that she constantly went above and beyond her role, accommodating all our requests and often making herself available at short notice to meet with us. She constantly put us at ease and calmed our nerves on the run-up to the big day. She was particularly attentive to the finer details - such as the 'finishing touches' and decorations on the day that made it a truly special and personalised experience. Nothing ever seemed like too much trouble and she was always calm and reassuring, even when we were unloading our cars full of table decorations, bunting (180 metres!), signs, table plans and large pieces of wood in varying sizes! She also assembled out wedding cake, and did a beautiful job.
Clearly there was a lot of work done behind the scenes to make our wedding day run as smoothly as it did, we would love to thank everyone personally but there are probably too many people to mention. A special thank you also has to go to the member of staff who looked after us during our evening celebrations (we can't remember his name, that's probably his fault though for constantly bringing us free drinks!).
All our guests seemed to enjoy the day as much as we did, and were constantly praising the venue and how beautiful it was.

able to relax and enjoy the day. The way you looked after not only us but our dog Buster who was a big part of our day was second to none. We have received some brilliant feedback about the wedding and the venue with some guests already rebooking for a weekend. We are looking forward to coming back for the weekend soon!

We visited the Coniston Hotel as the first venue to look at following our engagement and instantly fell in love with the venue, atmosphere and staff! We looked no further and every step of the way the wedding team were always on hand to answer questions and make us feel welcome. Nothing was ever too…

much to ask and from using a big yellow tractor as our wedding transport to walking our dogs down the aisle as ring bearers there was nothing that the team wouldn't make possible for us! The team worked above and beyond to create the wedding we truly only imagined we would have and honestly made our day a perfect one. The other hotel staff are always welcoming and again cannot seem to do enough for you and it is truly highly recommended. We cannot thank you enough for making our day so special. We wouldn't change a thing about it and it will be a day we will truly never forget. Thank you again and we look forward to seeing you all soon.

So we decided to get married but the question was where?

venue. There must have been alot of visits to the venue but every visit we fell in love with it even more, the staff are just soo nice and helpful. We must have messaged Sharon and Sophie like loads but every time she was so helpful. I was so stressful as how we would do everything but Sharon took all that stress off us the day before the wedding and on the wedding day she made sure everything was perfect. Our wedding day was the perfect day it was everything we asked for. The food was superb the service was faultless the guests couldn't stop talking about how exceptional coniston was and how amazing the wedding was. We can't thank you enough for everything you did for us if we could do it all again we would defiantly do it at the coniston hotel.

Winstons Barn where our ceremony was held.
From our initial meet-up with Sharon right through to our wedding day we were in regular contact with the venues wedding coordinators and always received prompt replies no matter how big or small the query. The whole process from start to finish was completely stress free thanks to their reassurance and guidance.
The wedding day itself couldn't have ran any smoother and we really didn't need to worry about a thing (and I'm a worrier!) as everything was organised and kept under control by the wedding coordinators.
The Bannister Suite and conservatory were decorated perfectly right down to the last detail and we received so many compliments throughout the day from guests on how lovely the venue was. The hotel itself is gorgeous and extremely spacious avoiding the feeling of being trapped inside on the torrential day that it was. It really did work perfectly. The food was also absolutely amazing and of very high quality.
All of the wedding coordinators that we were in contact with in the lead up to our wedding day were fantastic but especially Sharon who saw us through from start to finish, we really can't thank you enough for making our wedding day so special. I highly recommend The Coniston Hotel, we want to do it all again!

Well, well, well, what can we say?!

Once home we arranged an initial visit and consultation with Sharon - and it is fair to say that we never…

looked back! The hotel has the most beautiful setting and surroundings, with a first class team of staff. This combination was an absolute winner.
During the months of preparation nothing was to much trouble. Both Sharon and Sophie were so friendly, professional and more than accommodating.
On the 'big day' everything was perfect, we had the most incredible wedding day and for this we extend sincere thanks to Sharon and the entire team. We were made to feel a million dollars, and isn't this what every bride and groom dreams of?
We are so glad we chose The Coniston Hotel and have received so many compliments on our lovely celebration.
So, thank you once again and keep doing what you do so very well.
We shall visit often.
Much love and appreciation from The New Mr and Mrs Rothery – February 2017 xx
