  • Sofia Hirscher

    Our wedding was perfect in every way and we could not have wished for a better day. Rothamsted Manor is a beautiful house in a beautiful location and such a romantic backdrop for our wedding, all the guests fell in love with its charm immediately!

    On the day, the drawing room looked so elegant and the gardens were perfect. Our wedding photos are really special thanks to the wonderful setting. The staff couldn't do enough- we were so impressed with the level of attention and the amazing service - nobody wanted for anything and everyone complimented the staff on their professional and friendly demeanour.
