Lovely staff, comfortable and tasty food
Pros:

Comfortable and friendly atmosphere

Cons:

Couldn’t be helped due to the age of the property (17th Century) but was a little bit difficult to navigate around for some of our (of a certain age) family.

We had our final wedding meeting last week before we get married in May, the whole process has been supported with all the staff answering any questions and emails I’ve sent, Marie put us at ease with the final meeting to make sure we covered everything needed, can’t wait to get married at this beautiful venue

Thirty Years of Dinning at Whitley Hall
Pros:

We have been going to dine at Whitley Hall for over 30 years, in that time we have seen many changes. However, one thing never changes good food, great atmosphere, helpful staff, and we have never felt rushed - no matter how long we sit in the lounge after dinner.

Beautiful hotel and grounds
Pros:

We visited Whitley Hall Hotel as a potential wedding venue. The location is easy to get to and we were immediately impressed by how beautiful the hotel and grounds are.

The appointment was informative and we were provided with plenty of information about what is available and the pricing without being overwhelmed. We also appreciated that we were given time to look over the brochure together and then given the opportunity to go away and consider our options without any pressure to make an immediate decision. Following this appointment, I reached out with a couple of other questions and received a reply quickly and addressed everything I wanted to know.

As I result, I have just contacted the venue to go forward with booking it for our upcoming wedding!
