My Husband and I got married on the 25th March 2023 and we had the best day of our lives. We booked the coach house and it was stunning. The set up was perfect, the staff were amazing. The food was divine and everything went so smoothly. We booked with them in September 2021 and initially had Peter who then moved onto another employer but we weren't told and so when we contacted Chilston we were handed over to Tara and although we had a few hiccups with communication initially because she is a busy lady! She was absolutely fantastic. So kind and attentive, very thorough and she helped make our day just perfect. Thank you to all the staff, Chefs, wait staff, cleaners, function managers etc you were all amazing. We could not have dreamed for a better day.

Stunning venue with highly experienced and helpful staff who went out of their way to make our day special; nothing was too much trouble! The exclusive package was great value for money and enabled us to utilise the hotel as we pleased which our guests thoroughly enjoyed, including a delicious breakfast the next morning! Thank you to everyone at the hotel for ensuring our big day ran smoothly, it was a brilliant day! Highly recommend

Chilston Park was everything we could have wanted and more. The venue is beautiful, staff amazing and do so much for you. Food was fantastic and I cannot recommend the Hotel highly enough. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our special day perfection.

We finally got married at Chilston Park on 15th August 2021 after having to postpone twice from Covid. The venue is just stunning and the staff have been so helpful, kind and attentive all the way through. I can’t say enough as it was the most magical day. Food was just fabulous and rooms are beautiful and characteristic. On driving up to the venue you just get a warm welcome feeling and such picturesque grounds. Our pictures are amazing.
We will return to the venue for sure, maybe for our anniversary to remember the best day ever. Thank you to the whole team for making it happen.

The entire experience was impeccable from start to finish. From the early stages of organising the day with Jane (who was amazing throughout), to the day itself.

Nothing was too much for the attentive and personable serving staff. Staff were the perfect balance of being present while still giving us space to feel that we had the place to ourselves.

The food was delicious, and the venue itself is nothing short of breathtaking. Every detail is of the highest standard and the bed is probably the most comfortable we've ever slept in.

Thank you for a perfect day!

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all that you had done to help this wedding come to life. And the team who were absolutely brilliant from when we arrived Thursday night to the day itself, on Friday, they were all so attentive, and nothing seemed too much to ask. Special thanks to Matt and Lewis, who made sure everything ran so smoothly!

Flexible
The weather wasn’t looking great and I’m sure if I was anywhere else they would have pushed for me to go with my wet weather option, however Paul knew how much I wanted to get married outside and made sure this happened…as soon as it stopped raining it was all hands on deck to put the chairs just minutes before the ceremony and providing everyone with umbrellas! It really was the picture-perfect wedding I had imagined.

Thank you.

We chose to hold our wedding at Chilston Park Hotel following a very impressive wedding open day back in January 2020. It was love at first sight and although it was the first venue we looked at we knew this place was perfect for us and it wouldn’t get better than this. It was from here our love affair with Chilston Park began. From the very moment we secured our date the staff have been like extended family to us, even through a rescheduled date due to Covid. The hotel itself, grounds, and facilities are first class. A true piece of historic luxury hidden in the Kent Countryside. We stayed for a total of four days and three nights. Our wedding party was around 70-75 people on the day, with well over half of the party opting to stay over. Our day was so perfect in every way and way more than we could of ever dreamed of. We are still on cloud 9 and have enjoyed going through our videos and pictures reliving every magical moment. Everything was seamless from the ceremony right through to reception.
Unfortunately, our little girl was poorly the evening before the wedding, resulting in a hospital dash but even in a crisis the staff remained helpful, professional, and personable. They were all genuinely concerned for our little girl. They really went above and beyond to help us.
Everyone we come across at Chilston from the friendly welcoming faces at the Front Desk, talented Chefs, Bar staff, Events team, Management, Waiters/Waitresses, House Keeping staff and Porters were all amazing.
We had the most unforgettable day, the venue was perfection, the staff were faultless and the food was amazing and is still a talking point even to this day. Our wedding guest are also fans of the hotel, we had such great comments from them all, some of which have already returned to the hotel. I think this speaks volumes.

From viewing this venue we knew we loved it and they were helpful from the beginning. When we were allocated molly as our contact she was amazing. She'd respond to my emails promptly and answer all my questions and give any advice. They paid attention to the small details that I hadn't even considered at our final meeting! They really looked after us from when we arrived the night before to when we left the day after.
Sophie who helped us on the day of the wedding was amazing, so helpful and helped us feel chilled on the day.
The venue is beautiful, so many photo opportunities there weather rain or shine.
The team couldn't do enough to help us and I would recommend them over and over again.

Absolutely perfect day couldn't of gone any better from start to finish everyone is still talking about it now couldn't recommend chilston park anymore

We booked the exclusive hire package & received a 5 star plus service. I Highly recommend Chilston Park.

We had 100 guests & was very well looked after. From start to finish.

Jane was our wedding planner leading up to our big day & was always helpful. Any query’s we’re dealt with quickly and any concerns were put to bed with Janes knowledgeable experience of the venue.

Lewis & Charlotte were our wedding coordinators on the day & everything ran like clockwork. 100 wedding breakfast covers came out simultaneously for every course. Everyone had exactly what they ordered & the food was hot & delicious. The dinning staff were friendly, polite & attentive.

Chilston Park is a beautiful building & grounds, with lots of romantic backdrops for wedding pictures. Many of our guests stayed & have commented on how beautiful their rooms were.

By the end of the day we had miss placed belongings though the venue. However by morning the staff had collected everything from lost shoes, car keys, flower girl baskets, ring box & more & neatly arranged it in the breakfast room where it could be reunited with its rightful owner. Which was a very reassuring & comforting.

We couldn’t be happier with how perfect our day was

Well done to all the staff at Chilston Park

Love the Newlyweds

Our experience working with Chilston Park and organising our wedding day was fantastic - it really made the day for us super enjoyable and stress free. Their willingness to let us move the date around was really appreciated. We’ve had nothing but good feedback from our guests. All the staff were attentive and very professional and the food was also delicious and brought out promptly.

We’ll definitely be recommending Hand Picked Hotels and considering you for future events!

Having gone through a couple of cancellations already, we found ourselves booking a wedding ceremony and reception here with only 3 months notice. The short time frame was no problem for the staff and they managed to support us through everything required with time to spare. The intimate wedding package they have introduced really has everything you could possibly want if you are planning a wedding for small numbers of guests. Everything from live streaming the ceremony to a 5 course wedding breakfast, more food than you can eat and a stunning room for the night. All the staff were friendly and attentive throughout the build up and the day itself. If you can, we would definitely recommend arranging the fireworks for the end of the night (Aurora fireworks)

I found Chilston Park to be unorganised in the lead up to the wedding. Passed around to different people, some miscommunication throughout, slow responding to emails and making me fill out forms with information they had already had. Would have expected more for such an expensive venue. However that being said my wedding day was brilliant and the man I had running the actually day was superb. The food was good and everything ran smoothly.

An excellent location, very good and professional assistance in preparing and planning your wedding day. Food, drink and preferred suppliers are all excellent options

Great attention to detail!! This venue has to be seen!! Really enjoyed our stay!
