PlatterCatering is provided by talented local chefs. Our wedding caterers are excellent, well organised and professional with real flair and imagination. We can cater a sit down meal inside the houses for up to 24 at Widcombe Grange and 40 at Tone Dale House, any more than this requires a marquee, this enables us to cater for up to 200 people. We can also provide informal buffets in the houses for up to 70 and also provide spectacular barbeques in the grounds.

Testimonials

“Thank you once again for organising the weekend of our lives. All our guests said it was the best wedding venue they had ever been too. The Saturday flowed perfectly, there was such a buzz in the air. Your staff were great too. I'll never forget looking into the marquee after the Celidh dancing had finished - the dim lighting, the marquee sides open, the bunting, hay bales and flowers looked just perfect. Everyone looked so relaxed.“
Karen and Kevin
