We were both delighted with the service from Belle Isle Estate both in preparation for our day and on the day itself. They made the schedule of the day run very smoothly and took the stress out of the day. We both thoroughly enjoyed the entire day and I think all of our guests did also.

We …

would both like to thank Belle Isle Estate and compliment the staff for their part in this.
Many of our guests expressed the same also.

We had the most magical wedding at Belle Isle Castle on December 13th, 2024, and we are still floating on air from the incredible experience. From the moment we arrived, the entire team made us feel like royalty, especially Amy, Saddlers, and all the wonderful staff members. Their attention to …

detail and warm hospitality were beyond what we could have imagined. Amy ensured everything ran smoothly, keeping us calm and relaxed throughout the day, while Saddlers and the team went above and beyond to make our celebration truly special.

The venue itself was nothing short of enchanting. Belle Isle Castle, with its stunning surroundings, felt like a fairytale come to life. We were able to share this magical day with 30 of our closest family and friends, who all stayed with us on the estate. The ability to have everyone together in such a beautiful setting made our wedding even more unforgettable. The warmth of the place was amplified by the gorgeous Christmas decorations, creating a festive, cozy atmosphere that made our day feel even more special.

We can't thank the Belle Isle team enough for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime. If you're looking for a truly magical place to celebrate your wedding, Belle Isle Castle is the perfect choice!

The Castle at Belle Isle was a magnificent setting for our dream wedding, and the rooms were beautiful for each guest, providing everyone who attended a fantastic experience.

We are from the USA, and so had to coordinate everything remotely in advance, and this worked out great because everything …

was in place for our arrival and all we had to do was enjoy the experience and venue.

Our coordinator at Belle Isle, Amy Timoney, helped us each step of the way - from our initial Zoom Meeting to explore the castle - to providing suggestions for the various vendors we hired to provide the customized experience we wanted - with bagpiper on arrival, beautiful flowers and decorations, delicious food, fireworks, etc!

The venue is unbelievably beautiful grounds and each room is appointed beautifully. If you’ve seen movies where the characters get married in an Irish / Scottish castle, and there’s a fire in the fireplace and a huge hall to eat in, then you will love Belle Isle!

Thank you to all the staff at Belle Isle for giving us the wedding of a lifetime!

We got married at Belle Isle on 2nd November 2024 and stayed in the venue for a total of three nights. We were a party of 50 family members who stayed between the castle and the cottages. We had an absolute ball and we would highly recommend the Belle Isle to any couples who are looking for a unique …

and intimate venue which is available for private hire.
The castle is stunning with many beautiful bedrooms, living areas and a large kitchen which can be shared by all castle residents. Amy was our wedding planner and she was exceptionally helpful and patient with us in the 12 months leading up to the wedding – always responding to our queries in a timely manner and providing us with guidance on vendors as we were not from the local area. We did two planning video calls with Amy in the lead-up to our big day where she talked us through the timeline for the day and ensured we were happy with all details.

When we arrived at Belle Isle for our wedding weekend we were so well looked after from the first moment we drove through the gates. Amy kindly showed all of our guests to their accommodation as they arrived and provided them with a tour of the venue. On the day of the wedding, all of the Belle Isle team and the amazing catering team from Horseshoe and Saddlers worked together to ensure everything ran smoothly allowing for us to enjoy every minute without any worries or stress.
Many of our wedding guests have commented on how impressed they were with all of the team in the Belle Isle over the weekend. Amy and the team thought of every little detail and the Belle Isle team did a beautiful job of setting up the Grand Hall for the ceremony and later in the day for the meal. We had such a wonderful day and we would have no hesitation in recommending Belle Isle as an excellent wedding venue.

Our wedding was in October 2024 and we booked Belle Isle Castle for the whole weekend. We had an absolutely perfect day thanks to Amy & the Belle Isle team! The staff are so friendly and welcoming, they all went above and beyond for us, our families, and our friends!

From the moment we arrived, …

we were taken care of and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. The venue is just simply stunning and has an amazing home-from-home feeling when you arrive.

Amy, our wedding coordinator, has been excellent the whole way through the wedding planning process. She was always on hand to help us plan every detail and accommodate our requests, she is very experienced and an amazing person.

Emma is another excellent wedding coordinator at Belle Isle who also helped us in picking the venue and arranging all the cottages for our guests. Mary the Belle Isle housekeeper is another wonderful person who made sure we had everything we needed during our stay! These are just a few of the amazing people who made our big day very special at Belle Isle!

I can't thank the Belle Isle team enough for everything they did and we be back in a heartbeat! We would highly recommend Belle Isle Estate!
