Here are just a few of the testimonials we have received from clients :

"What a fantastic event!  Everyone was blown away by the beauty of the castle and the surrounding grounds.  The level of service was outstanding throughout our stay and nothing was ever to much trouble for your staff.  The food was exquisite and your staff were proactive and the flexibility and understanding was much appreciated.  On behalf of our team we thank you all very much and look forward to many more events at the castle".

"I felt the need to put pen to paper following last week's event for npower at Eastnor Castle. I cannot praise your staff enough for their assistance, attention to detail, professionalism and friendliness and for just being a pleasure to work with. Nothing seemed too much of a problem which makes my job an awful lot easier and the whole venue certainly challenges any 5* hotels I have worked with.

I look forward to working with your team again in the future".

'Thank you for the wonderful Venetian Masked Ball we held at the castle on Friday 18 June 2006. The event was a huge success and our guests were greatly impressed with the whole evening. Many people commented on how beautiful the castle is and it certainly provided the perfect backdrop for the Ball.

Without exception the staff at Eastnor were professional and friendly, a pleasure to work with. A special thank you must go to Sarah and Richard for their unflappable approach to organising the evening, despite the many and varied elements of entertainment and people that you had to contend with!

Please extend my thanks to everyone who helped make Friday such a success. We received many comments from guests about how smoothly the evening went and this would not have been possible without you.'

'Thank you to all the team for providing such a good event for Nationwide and our guests. The day and evening surpassed our expectations and the event was certainly well received by our guests. The setting, venue and service provided, both on the day and in the run up to the event, were excellent and you certainly provide that unique experience which is hard to find.

Please pass our thanks onto Land Rover Experience which was again excellent. It not only allowed us to experience off road driving of varying difficulties in three very different vehicles but to also enjoy the estate the Castle is located on. We hope to see you again in the future'.

Sarah Lee - Senior Lending Manager
Nationwide Building Society

'We selected Eastnor Castle for our annual Managers conference this year in conjunction with Bluehat UK, the team building company. Right from the outset the staff at Eastnor were focused on our needs, staff were attentive and had a real desire to tailor our day to ensure we got exactly what we wanted. Eastnor is a unique setting and an atmospheric place which was particularly appropriate both for the indoor and outdoor exercises developed for us to crack the Da Vinci Code, but also in hosting our black-tie function in the evening. The food was superb, supported by a great selection of wines and the champagne reception proved memorable with the pianist in the background and a roaring log-fire to greet us. There is simply no better place to arrange a corporate event, great setting, great food, great staff!

Eastnor will be fondly remembered for many years to come.'

'Our event was a great success and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay with you in the magnificent surroundings, along with the excellent cuisine and wine which complimented it perfectly!  The attention to detail, discreet personal service was met with a high level of professionalism. Should the opportunity arise, we would not hesitate to visit you again in the future.'

'I had a brilliant day! Eastnor Castle is an amazing venue and we were very lucky to have a sunny day. The teamwork activities were great fun and certainly broke the ice within our group. Would definitely recommend Storming the Ramparts at Eastnor Castle.'

Debbie  Jones - Eventure

'An away day was held for the private client department at Shakespeares in June 2005 at Eastnor castle.  The venue was chosen as we felt it was a perfect setting for the theme of the day which was corporate branding and personal image.  The staff were professional and helpful throughout the day.  We would consider using the venue again for a corporate event.'

Jayne Leedham, Shakespeares Solicitors

'On behalf of the BT UK Data Centres can I please thank you for what turned out to be a fantastic event that was shared by ALL attendee's.  I have received many plaudits for the 2 days with everyone thoroughly enjoying themselves not only in the activities but in the beautiful surroundings of Eastnor Castle.  Special thanks to all the team involved who cared for our every need - they were all superb.

Eastnor has now created a problem for us - how do we arrange a team event of similar standing in the future?
Simple - we come back!'

Garry Hunter - UK Data Centres Support Manager - BT

'... I would be grateful if you could communicate my heart-felt appreciation for a job well done to all of your team in providing such an outstanding service for our conference dinners. the response of Richard and Sarah to
our every whim both before and during the events was exceptional and very professional, leaving me with no concerns other than getting everyone to leave the beautiful surroundings at the end of each evening! I have heard many expressions of enjoyment from our delegates over the wonderful food you provided and of course the Castle itself...... I look forward to having another opportunity to working with such a 'top team' in the future......'

' I am writing to thank you and your staff for a most memorable experience. I have received nothing but praise from our staff who attended the event. You were courteous, diplomatic and professional, allowing everyone to enjoy and appreciate the grandeur and hospitality of a unique venue.'

Gerard Veness

' I thought you would appreciate a note of thanks for all your hard work in ensuring our afternoon of activities and our dinner went smoothly. There was no way that even the weather was going to spoil such a wonderful day, from the superbly arranged field events and the impromptu welcoming tea and coffee, right through to a wonderful evening of entertainment and excellent food.

I have received nothing but praise for the courteous and efficient way the staff looked after us during the day. All the arrangements went splendidly and everyone had a wonderful time. Please pass on our good wishes and thanks to all concerned.

Finally, all agree that Eastnor is a remarkable place and certainly worth keeping in mind for future functions.'

Barbara Phillips

'This is just a short note to thank you and your team for the superb way that we were looked after at our recent visit to Eastnor Castle. The day was a great success and that is down, in large part, to how well we were looked after and how comfortable everyone was made to feel at Eastnor. Everything worked like clockwork from your side of things and when it did not on our, then Richard was there to sort things out. The whole of your team was great...'
