Frances and Niall Say...
"We already knew that The Mowbray was at the top of our list just from following on Instagram and seeing how beautiful it was for weddings and events but we fell in love from the moment we walked through the doors at their open house in January 2024. There was just something about the space—the atmosphere, the style, the warmth—that instantly made us feel it was the perfect place for our wedding celebrations.
From that moment on, the entire planning process was smooth and stress-free. The staff were absolutely brilliant; dedicated and always happy to help. They really listened to what we wanted and made everything feel so easy and seamless.
A special mention has to go to the food; it was genuinely incredible. Every single guest commented on how delicious everything was, from the starters to the late-night snacks. We can’t wait to come back for the roasts and supper clubs to continue our love affair with The Mowbray.
Thanks again, we had the absolute time of our lives."
