Looking for a wedding venue in the Lake District can be a daunting task. We both love the lakes so there was so many places to pick from which had meaning to us. However when we looked at Lodore for an Autumn/Christmas wedding there was no going back. We contacted the hotel to arrange a meeting with the wedding coordinator and to look round the hotel with all the Christmas decorations set up. When we arrived we were blown away with the effort this hotel goes to for Christmas. It was stunning! We met with Nicole who talked us through the packages and various extras the hotel could offer. She was very helpful and was always on the end of an email to answer any questions I had very quickly! We were sold on the hotel for the amazing views and friendly staff. Throughout the booking and organising of our wedding there was never any problem speaking to people and confirming things the wedding team are amazing. We had a food tasting before picking our menu and it was all really good. The hotel went above and beyond to ensure that family members with allergies were catered for; nothing was too much of an ask. Our final meeting and run through before the big day was with Michella, she was so enthusiastic about the day and ensured we had nothing left unanswered. She booked us breakfast, evening meals and spa slots for our time at the hotel. Our big day went perfectly, the rooms were set up just as we'd asked. Everything was placed in the correct places. The food was served in good time. There was never any worry about anything all day which is what you need as a Bride and Groom it allowed us to enjoy our day. The staff had everything covered. We spent a few extra days in the hotel following our wedding and enjoyed the spa and a meal in Mizu which was amazing. We already can't wait to return year on year for our anniversary. This hotel will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Mr & Mrs Glover 12.11.23
