Ridge Farm Reviews
We fell in love with Ridge Farm the moment we saw it over 2 years ago. Watching our guests do the same was an amazing sight.
We had the perfect fairy-tale wedding thanks to yourself, Jackie, Frank, Nick, Richard and the rest of the team.
Everyone at Ridge Farm was so down-to-earth and made us feel so welcome and made sure everything ran smoothly.
We couldn’t ask for anything more.
The whole family are already talking about coming back soon!
Thanks again for making our time at Ridge Farm so special.
Chloe & Adam
Having use of the venue from Friday through to Monday meant we were able to fully relax into the weekend and make full use of the incredible amenities – swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts ... which made it feel like a destination wedding when it’s in fact
Wonderful, were so organised and friendly whilst we were there.. we can't thank them enough. We will definitely be visiting Ridge Farm again
