Disappointing Experience with Wedding Venues
The following reviews from couples who have experienced significant issues with their weddings at various venues owned by Country House Weddings/Hwedding Directors have been summarized.
Venue Issues
All three reviews highlight various issues with the management and staff of the venues, leading to significant stress and financial losses for the couples. The reviews suggest that the management is willing to use loopholes in the terms and conditions to charge clients for minor issues or false claims.
Gosfield Hall
One couple, Marcia and her fiance, had a beautiful wedding at Gosfield Hall, but the experience was marred by poor management. They initially had a great experience with the on-site team and wedding coordinator Ellie, who was exceptional in her attention to detail and support. However, the venue management left a lot to be desired. They tried to charge the couple nearly 7,000 to move their wedding date, and post-wedding, they levied charges for a missing umbrella and a room key. The couple was also sent an email intended for the previous night's wedding party, claiming that smoking had occurred in four rooms, which led to additional charges.
Clearwell Castle
Another couple, Lauren, had a disappointing wedding at Clearwell Castle. Her wedding manager, Sian, was rude to her guests, including her 80-year-old grandmother-in-law and her mother. The couple also felt that Sian did not take her concerns seriously and tried to make false claims about their wedding.
Leez Priory
Jason and his fiance had a terrible experience at Leez Priory. They were not refunded their deposit after the venue refused to host their wedding, resulting in a financial loss of thousands of pounds.
Avoid these Venues
All three reviews suggest avoiding these venues due to the poor management, false claims, and lack of customer service. Couples are advised to thoroughly review the terms and conditions before booking a wedding at these venues.
