My partner and I couldn’t recommend the Duke of Marlborough more as a venue for your wedding. Such a stunning spot on the bay and the hotel is absolutely beautiful. Food was 10/10 and the service is extremely professional and so friendly - staff really go the extra mile. The whole process of planning the wedding at the duke was made so easy for us by our wonderful wedding planner Beth. The ballroom is such a stunning room to hold a wedding. Our day was simply perfect, and we will be forever grateful to the Duke of Marlborough for making it so memorable for us all. Thank you Again xx
