Parsons Leisure

As soon as they have your deposit they will lose complete interest in providing any kind of service. We hired the marquee for a summer wedding. The marquee linen was disgustingly dirty and the flooring is like a springboard which completely destroyed our wedding cake. The venue has no running water which we and our catering team were not informed of. The portable toilets they provide ran out of water halfway through the event which i am told has happened on previous occasions and yet has not been resolved. This left my quests unable to flush the toilets or wash their hands. On top of the sorry state the venue was in, it turns out they had another wedding in the venue two day's before and hadn't cleared up which meant they were cleaning well into the start of our wedding. Their response to all the issues is that they were not aware or guests hadn't approached them to complain. My advise to anyone considering this venue is STAY AWAYYYYY.

My son was married at Trunkwell and I can't praise the venue and staff enought. The staff were amazing, nothing was too much trouble. The food was really tastys and the wedding planner allowed them to make changes to suit their choices. I honestly couldn't fault anything on the day from start to finish and have recommended this venue to many people since.

If I was getting married (agin) I would love to have this venue for my reception. I have been to a friends reception here and the large reception room was tastefully decorated. I like the fact that it's not too far from Reading either and the grounds make lovely settings for photos.
