We booked this property for my 40th birthday at the end of April. A £500 deposit was paid many weeks in advance for a 2 night stay to secure the property - private chef was booked, driver booked. 2 weeks beforehand we were emailed out of the blue on a Sunday night and told the booking was no longer valid and asked for bank details to send back the deposit. The reason was "unforeseen circumstances" and that the owner needed use of the property. When we called the owner (her details are provided in the welcome pack when you book and pay your deposit) she had no idea what we were talking about. Deposits tend to be a two way contract - it prevents the Client from doing a no show and prevents the Service provider from renting the property to someone else. Clearly the managing agent got a bigger / better booking as things begin to open up post Covid and decided to bump our booking. Utterly shoddy behaviour and has left us completely in the lurch having had the 40th birthday booked and planned many weeks in advance. Avoid this place like the plague, they will lie to you and cancel your booking at last minute if they think someone will pay more.

My wife and I married here in 2017, it is a wonderful venue in a gorgeous location. Our family stayed with us for the weekend making our big day into a great weekend. We have returned since then to relax and enjoy the house and gardens bringing friends and family to have fun alongside us. Highly recommended.

Just returned from a 5 day stay at The Copse and can't say enough about it. The setting is beautiful and the accommodations are outstanding. Its the perfect place to get away as a family as there is room for everyone. It also provides everything needed for a wedding, conference or any large gathering. I highly recommend the Copse, You won't be disappointed. I know we enjoyed every minute we were there.

Beautiful country-like setting with comfortable accommodations. Well-appointed facilities. Definitely a destination place for any type of get-together. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Be Warned! The Copse is no doubt a beautiful location however they kept £3250 from us when we had to cancel despite giving them 12 months notice. They provided no justification for charging us that amount other than their terms and conditions which we and our legal advisors believe to be unfair if not illegal. Sadly we live in a world where it is very expensive to take businesses to court when low numbers are involved because you cannot claim back your costs, the owners of the Copse know this. Wedding Weekends are definitely one of "those" wedding venues

We had the most wonderful experience from start to finish at The Copse and couldn’t be happier that we had our wedding there. The entire setting from the house, courtyard, grill cabin, barn, pavilion and surrounding gardens gives this location such a uniquely relaxed, personal and intimate atmosphere. We had chosen for a Scandinavian mid-summer theme with lots of flowers and entertainment such as garden games and portrait paintings taking place at different locations around the venue which worked really well. The house was well equipped if you are planning a self-catered event as it has large ovens and a lot of fridge space. This was crucial for us as we wanted to cook most of the food for lunch and dinner ourselves together with a hired chef. The owner Penny was absolutely lovely and made our experience at The Copse feel so personal from day one. The house manager Kelly was also very supportive answering all our questions, offering advice and helped to arrange waiting staff and a babysitter. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a scenic countryside location for any type of celebration or event.

Beautiful country and it feeling like own a farm or own place.

We are not the most organised couple but knew that we wanted at least an overnight stay and celebration when we married, but could not find anywhere remotely possible. We had been searching for three years with no luck. Then we found The Copse! Nothing to organise as it’s all there, so once guests had parked we went from ceremony with the Registrar to lots of lovely pizza served in the garden and then onto DJ and dancing. It could not have been more fun, easier or more relaxed. The guests loved it, family was in awe that we had finally married and in such spectacular style. In the end we stayed three nights and four days. Highly, highly recommended as the absolute right way to a uniquely personal, special, memorable wedding. The team at The Copse are true magicians, only there when you need them. Book it now before it’s too late as you won’t find anywhere else like it.

We loved our wedding weekend at The Copse that we chose for its location as well as the flexibility and length of time we could be there. All of our friends loved the venue too - it has that magical feel, as well as being relaxed and homely which is exactly what we were looking for. We didn't want a venue that was too formal where it felt like you were one in a chain of weddings. The Copse, certainly felt special and unique - perfect for our big day! Kelly and Penny were so helpful in answering all our questions and putting up with our visits before the wedding and then on the day, were there making sure everything ran smoothly - but did this discretely which made such a difference. We were very happy with the venue - if only we could do it all again!

I am from the UK and was marrying Tim who is from California. I wanted to marry at home so all our friends and family did not have to travel. The Copse was perfect as all the Californian family could be with us for several nights . They all had such fun, exploring glorious Henley on Thames, being there for a blessing in the local church and celebrating with us in the most magical surroundings. We loved every minute. It was spectacular, comfortable and perfect for creating the memories that will last a lifetime. The team at The Copse could not have been more helpful and the house and setting is drop dead gorgeous. We plan to return on our five year anniversary and we recommend it to everyone. Sarah and Tim

This beautiful house ticked a lot of boxes for our family group of 16. It felt huge yet cosy, and like home. The children aged from 5 to 16 all had a blast with the hot tub and cinema room. The men particularly loved the BBQ hut and we all fully enjoyed every part of ... the house and its amenities- from the endless candles for the dining table to the 2 large lounge areas and fully equiped kitchen, there was space to relax and find peace and quiet and space to come together. We had a truly wonderful weekend celebrating my 50th and my mums 70th. Some truly wonderful memories that will stay in our hearts for years to come. Thank you!

We just celebrated our wedding at The Copse and couldn’t be happier with our venue choice! It’s such a stunning location and a beautiful place to stay for the full weekend. For events, all the tables, chairs and lots of decorations are available to use which was super helpful and otherwise we had absolutely flexibility ... over how we wanted to set up the day. There are so many lovely areas to use around The Copse - and the cinema room was perfect for a break on the Sunday! We hope to stay again in the future
