Testimonials

Natalie N, 24/02/17:

I had my wedding at Ribblesdale garden on Friday the 24th of February. Excellent facilities and a beautiful place to have such an event. All of our guests loved it as well. Would definately recommend to others. It was actually very reasonable as well in comparison to a few other places we had looked at. Excellent value for money and a wonderful ambiance.

Sandy and Phyllis B, Scotland, 21/02/17:

We got a lovely welcome from Denise, the cottage is spotless and has everything you would want, and the garden is beautiful, and the fresh flowers were lovely.
