Description
The time leading up to your wedding day should be exciting, romantic and memorable, we hope you enjoy planning your day and we look forward to being there every step of the way. Our wedding coordinator will help design a bespoke package, providing advice on every aspect of your day to create the wedding you dreamed of.
The Netherside Suite is an idyllic setting offering a large log burning fire, natural oak beams, rural inspired rustic charm and large windows allowing a natural light to grace your day. We hope you both love it and feel at ease in your surroundings.
Within its site The Gamekeeper’s Inn has a collection of bedrooms, family rooms and suites, all beautifully appointed and bursting with character. The bar area hosts an informal space to drink and dine, filled with comfy chairs, a hearty glowing log fire and cosy nooks and crannies, perfect for pre-wedding get togethers. The conservatory dining room also prides itself on providing a relaxed and informal destination serving tasty local produce. Within the park itself, you’ll find the leisure centre and Long Ashes Pure Spa complex, wildlife and woodland walks. We do believe there is something for everyone off the beaten track at Long Ashes Park.
Viewings are by appointment only with our Wedding Co-ordinator. Should you have any queries or wish to make an appointment.

- KKatie Eyre29/01/2019Everyone LOVED the food.Everyone LOVED the food.Just wanted to say a massive thankyou to Stuart and his team at Gamekeepers where we had our wedding reception last Saturday. They dealt with all my annoying questions quickly and without fuss, they were really organised and I felt totally reassured that everything would be as I wanted (I am particular). Everything was perfect we had a sit down meal for 60 (including various special dietary requirements) that was absolutely delicious then we had bacon/sausage sandwiches in the evening. Every member of the team that I spoke to was friendly and obliging. Everyone LOVED the food had so many comments on it and also how lovely the function room and accommodation was. We adored the honeymoon suite was lovely to sit on the balcony the following morning and reflect on our magical day. We can assure you we will back again and again this place has so many happy memories now.

The team are expert at making your big day go smoothly and ours was just perfect. The lovely wedding co-ordinator Angela makes you feel so at ease during the months before and is always willing to answer questions, no matter how daft they may be. She also listens so well to your ideas and turns these into reality for you on the day so effortlessley. The rooms are all finished to a high standard for your guests that stay (who also get use of the Long Ashes spa facilities) and the honeymoon suite is lovely, though after such a long day and dancing you don’t spend a huge amount of time in there! I think one of the best things we enjoy about the Gamekeepers is the food, on our wedding day it was amazing and so many guests commented on how much they loved it, but we’ve also been up several time with family and friends before and after the wedding and consistently great.
