Sheepdrove Sustainable Weddings

A belated thank you for letting us use your wonderful space for our company summer party! You have the most beautiful and cleverly designed space and gardens, it was a real joy to be there. We had a great time, the weather was kind to us, and the whole day went really well – the delicious alfresco lunch surrounded by all the amazing herbs and flowers, to garden games in the field and then back for dinner in the restaurant. It all worked so well. A huge thank you for your time and all your help.

Beautiful location, loads of space, high quality facilities, and great communication with booking! We had such a wonderful stay for a rural hen party - everyone loved the farm and Woodend, and numerous people in the group are now considering booking with you for future events.Woodend can sleep up to 18 with two sharing each room, but we had one per room which felt very luxurious. The rooms were lovely and spacious, each with their own ensuite.Great kitchen - large and well equipped, I was able to comfortably cater for 12 people. Living area is large and cosy with a beautiful log burner, although the house was so warm already that we didn't manage to make use of the fire!The farm and surrounding areas are gorgeous, perfect for a big walk as a group.Thank you for a great stay - we'll be back!

We had our wedding at Sheepdrove Organic Farm, and cannot recommend it enough! The highlights for us include:- Great indoor spaces (the photos don't do the venue justice)- Lots of outdoor space for guests (courtyard, garden)- Accommodation for the wedding party on site- Private boat house by a lake for bride & groom- Scenic location- Venue is yours for the weekend so plenty of time to set up- Complete flexibility about which suppliers you use and how you organise your wedding- Alli and the team were fantastic - friendly, proactive, organised - we couldn't have asked for more!In summary, we would definitely recommend. The venue was beautiful, offered so much flexibility, and it was amazing to see the steps they have taken to be sustainable and climate-conscious.

Absolutely fantastic. We chose Sheepdrove as the venue for our wedding day and it was better than we could have ever imagined. A beautiful building in a stunning location. We would not even have known that it was raining all day with the huge windows allowing plenty of light in and numerous spacious areas providing room for all our guests to enjoy the day inside.Alison and Jonathon were brilliant both the day before and day of the wedding by helping get everything prepared and generally just guiding us through the day without forcing any ideas on us.Thank you for an amazing day!

We had the absolute pleasure of having our wedding at the end of March at Sheepdrove Farm, and we can’t recommend the venue enough!It’s very local to Swindon, and is Dog friendly - which both aspects were important to us. Sheepdrove is a beautiful venue, very natural & unique. All of our guests commended the venue, the ambience and all the kind helpful staff.We had both the ceremony & reception at Sheepdrove - having this all in one place was brilliant and much better than having to travel between. Sheepdrove were very accommodating to our wishes and ideas.Having the day before the wedding to be able to set up the venue and decorate was great and allowed a stress free lead up.Allison Cooke was wonderful from our first venue viewing and all the way through the lead up to our wedding & during the big day. She is a lovely lady and an asset to Sheepdrove.We also stayed at the Woodend accommodation - which was beautiful and very convenient! The scenery around sheepdrove is gorgeous and there are so many lovely photo opportunities!Our special day is definitely a day to remember forever, thank you Allison and all at Sheepdrove for your hard work and support!

We chose Sheepdrove as our wedding venue location immediately after visiting on an open day. We had a list of things we wanted from our venue, we wanted a beautiful location, we wanted modern but with rustic elements, we wanted space, accommodation onsite, plenty of parking, freedom of choice over suppliers and Sheepdrove ticked the lot.Alli was wonderful throughout and on the day, was always on hand if needed and quietly made sure things ticked along nicely on the day!I would not hesitate to recommend Sheepdrove as a wedding venue and would urge you to get along to one of their open days if you are considering a venue for your special day!

We had the most fabulous civil partnership ceremony at Sheepdrove and thoroughly recommend it. All our guests commented on what a beautiful and unique venue we had chosen. From our first contact with Allison to her helping me pull my wellies on for the walk down to the Boat House at midnight, she was amazing.Having the venue available the day before took the stress away and we knew everything was in place for the big day. We chose mostly local suppliers, who were familiar with Sheepdrove and they did most of their set up on Friday as well.Our families and close friends stayed in Woodend which meant our celebrations could start on Friday evening. The scenery and walks are gorgeous, and everyone took advantage of the sunshine on Saturday morning.Definitely a day to remember with special thanks to Allison and Mandy for all their hard work and support – we couldn’t have done it without you.

We had the most amazing wedding day at Sheepdrove and genuinely couldn’t have asked for more. From the day we first looked around, Alli and the team were so quick in answering our questions and really helpful with the things we weren’t sure about. Where necessary they liaised directly with our suppliers to make our lives easier which was so helpful. Having the venue available the whole day before was fantastic, they were also so helpful in setting up and getting the accommodation ready for us. On the day itself, Alli kept us well stocked with tea and coffee whilst we got ready in the morning and the team helped with all the finishing touches in the venue itself. During the ceremony, wedding breakfast and reception they were so helpful in keeping things running smoothly, quietly working very hard to make our day as special as it was. A bonus is that the venue is dog friendly and when our miniature dachshund arrived for photos, they were as happy to see him as we were! When it came to clear down, they were extremely efficient and helpful, packing everything away and helping take it over to the accommodation for us. Thank you for being such a key part of our perfect day!
