All Saints Church

Me, my husband and our 4 kids attend this church every week - it’s just amazing. Beautiful building, beautiful services and the people are welcoming and friendly. There is real community spirit here. The Sunday school is great and the service is really child friendly. We’d be lost without this place ❤️

Beautiful historic church with amazing views from its elevated position. Got married here several years ago.

Lovely church full of history. The services are brilliant and the congregation are so friendly

This has been our family church for years. The church building itself is absolutely stunning and the grounds are beautifully maintained. The current vicar, Andrew, has done wonders for the Parish and there are services designed for everyone.

What a fabulous church and worthy setting to offer praise & prayers to a loving Father God and his Son Lord Jesus Christ.

As an architectural ecclesiologist I am fascinated by the entire building. I had a meal at The Abbey Hotel across the road and saw the church through the window. I came back next night to view the church properly and I was surprised by the warmth of the building itself and the people who care for it. Due to covid arrangements will be needed to enter the building again but if you can please pay it a visit as it is the most beautiful architecture I have seen as an ecclesiologist.

A customer of mine hired the church hall for her daughter’s 9 th Birthday party . Volunteer staff opened up on time so I could dress the room with plenty of time before her guest arrived . I would recommend this hall if you were looking for somewhere to have a children’s party .

Great visit, despite restrictions, allowed into the Cemetry with masks and shown around by one of the gardeners. Very helpful and cheery

Great church. The building itself is stunning. However the people are even better. Warm welcoming members of the church and always happy to help. Great activities for the kids during the service and throughout the week. A great rock in the community.
