Kings Head Hotel

Not from the area we googled ‘dog friendly hotel’s’ and the Kings Head Hotel popped up. Our only other requirement was enough bedrooms for 100 guests. Well…… this place nailed it. From the moment we walked into our first appointment with Daisy, we immediately knew it was the one. We never even visited another venue. An absolutely beautiful quirky hotel with such character. The assembly room is STUNNING. Such a picture perfect room that exudes elegance and class. I pay particular attention to flooring as I feel it gives such a finish and it is beautiful in that room. For our evening reception, we chose the ‘vaulted cellar’ a completely different vibe and allowed us to portray the party side of us. Jamie the barman, was a brilliant ‘host’, an absolute asset to the hotel. Daisy was beyond fantastic. Answered emails with speed, so knowledgable, and able to tweak anything we wanted to our liking. Occasionally I had to change plans and she was so accommodating. She is also super friendly and a dream to work with. The whole day was seamless. I’m only sad that it went so quick. We were lucky enough to have good weather in October so this opened up the terrace for our guests to mingle during reception drinks. Every person I spoke to said what a beautiful venue it was! The wedding breakfast was faultless with fantastic portions. I was in the prime spot to watch service and the attention to detail was phenomenal. Daisy regularly checked on us to make sure we were ok and made sure we were where we were supposed to be and when. This helped the day just flow. On a supplier note a family member provided the flowers and had remarked on what informative detailed correspondence she had had with Daisy. I would 20/10 recommend the Kings Head Hotel.

My goodness… where do I start with this glorious venue. I found this venue completely by accident and instantly knew it was the perfect place to get married. From start to finish Daisy (the most wonderful wedding co-ordinator!) was there to help answer questions/deal with bridezilla/generally be amazing. As a person who manages in hospitality and hosted weddings myself, food and service has always been a big worry for me for my own day - I needed it to be perfect…somehow it was even better than we could imagine. The food was simply AMAZING. (One guest messaged me a week later to let me know he is still dreaming about the beef cheeks …it was that good…). We made a few little tweaks to some dishes which was no problem at all for the team and the service (headed by Daisy) was impeccable and faultless. The hotel should be very proud of the team they have, they are all an asset to the company. Wow. Thank you to all of you! As for the venue - it is the best of both worlds. We had our ceremony and wedding breakfast in the assembly rooms - perfectly elegant and beautiful and the evening down in the vaulted cellars, the perfect space for live music/wedding DJ. Honestly, if you’re looking for somewhere that you can host an entire wedding but still be a little different, this is one hundred percent the space for you. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. Thank you Daisy and thank you team.

From the beginning to end, we were treated with the most attention and care. Daisy met us with the warmest welcome and we instantly felt at ease with her and not under any pressure unlike other venues we visited. We received a detailed tour of the hotel and Daisy answered any questions we had. We fell in love with the hotel instantly. We only had six months to plan our special day and Daisy made everything so easy for us. Finally our day came and what an incredible day it was. Hotel rooms were fantastic, food fantastic, ceremony room was incredible. At no point did we have any worries or concerns, everything went so smoothly thanks to Daisy and the staff. The evening party held in the cellar was a major hit with all of our guests and we loved every minute of our day, wish we could do it all again. Thank you for making our day so wonderful and for giving us the best memories.

Our wedding at the Kings Head Hotel was an absolute dream! Daisy was absolutely amazing, it wouldn’t have been possible without her. Daisy was so so helpful, nothing was too much, she made sure everything was exactly the way we wanted and it was perfect for us! She was like a friend to me, helping me when I was getting stressed and answering all my questions even the silly little ones! On the day, Daisy kept me calm and talked me through everything. Daisy and her team made the room look beautiful for the wedding breakfast even better than I could have hoped for! Everyone worked so hard to ensure we had the best day possible! We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and team for our wedding and we 100% recommend the Kings Head for the perfect wedding!

We loved every minute of our perfect winter wedding at the Kings Head Hotel. From the very beginning, Daisy was wonderful, very responsive to queries and guided us through the whole process. We used many of her recommended suppliers and could see why they were so highly thought of, but we were also able to use our own suppliers which not every venue allows. We opted to have our ceremony and wedding breakfast in the Assembly Room, which has a nice elegant wedding feel. We were a little nervous that the bar space outside of the Assembly Room would be a little crowded during the drinks reception, but for our numbers (50-60) it was ideal. We were also lucky enough with the weather to be able to use the terrace area, and this was a great additional space for photographs. The canapes were delicious and certainly kept everyone going until dinner. We were especially impressed with the mini Yorkshire puddings! It was a nice touch to come back from photographs to find a server waiting for us with a tray of two of each canape, as we were worried we wouldn't get time to try any. The meal itself was delicious (as we expected from the menu tasting), and we had many compliments from a large number of the guests that it wasn't 'typical wedding food' and was all cooked to perfection. They were very flexible when catering to dietary requirements, we knew in advance we had a few guests who couldn't eat part of the main course and Daisy offered a substitute. We are not wine connoisseurs but it seemed pleasant and everyone enjoyed it. A nice touch was Daisy adding a bottle of alcohol-free wine to each table after I mentioned I'm not a big drinker and was also concerned for drivers etc. We went with the Vaulted Cellar for the reception and it's a great space for a party! We opted to use the casual seating and this was a big hit, as was the rum bar. A massive thank you to all the staff for tolerating our choice of music in the evening, it got rather wild and we had the best time!
