St Audries Park Somerset and Kids!

Options
Hello All,

We are planning to get married later this year and have seen some fantastic late availability deals at St Audries Park in Somerset - it looks fantastic and I can believe how cheap it can be for a last minute booking so I wondered if anyone had actualy done this, and more importantly how child friendly is the venue?

Idealy we would like to have some activities for the kids like a bouncy castle / outdoor games - are they likely to accomodate this?

I have booked to go and have a look around so I am just trying to get some opinions from people who know the venue already!

Thanks

    I don't know if they would accommodate it but I have phoned them before and they are very friendly so it might be worth giving them a call. I love that venue too, we toyed with a late deal but wussed out at the last minute lol.

    I was born and lived in Taunton for 20 years .... how did I never hear of this venue??!!!

    Just checked it out and it looks really stunning. I would suggest taking a list of questions with you or ringing them before you go. x
  • I am a bit suspicious that they can make such cheep last minute deals but all the reviews look good.

    We are going to view it next week.

    Beks - good idea - we are bound to forget what to ask so we will start on a list of questions.

    My main concern is that it looks very "formal" which is not really what we want as there will be as many kids as adults!
  • hi,
    dont know if u decided on venue but went to wedding at st audries yesterday,with my 2lively boys,and found it to be v child friendly,all the kids attending played hide and seek inside and out,and there is a dedicated kids room where there r colouring books/pencils,dvd player and mini pool table,and none of the kids got bored of were a nuisance at all!! just a note tho if ur getting wed in the orangery there,it gets VERY hot in there if its a sunny day!!!
    enjoy your day.
