Had a meal at the Knowle this evening. The service was very poor, I was spoken to rudely three times by staff when asking for a drink. My first drink was more head than lager and was told it was because the lager was “lively”.
The food was of poor quality especially for a venue selling itself as classy. Overall a bad experience for the money.

There is so many things I can say about my experience with the Knowle. Me and my husband got married the 3rd September this year and the staff was amazing! They really did make our day go smoothly and so well. All of our guest was amazed at how beautiful the venue was and they all could t stop saying how much they enjoyed there meals, thank you chef.
A big thank you to Kelly she really has been amazing, she really has gone out of her way to be so helpful and been so supportive through Covid.
Anyone looking for a wedding venue I highly recommend the Knowle.
And thank you to all the team.

Was here for a friend's wedding reception. It's a beautiful building, and a great venue. Slight warning there is only 2 toilets for men (no urinal) and 2 for the women.
The dance/party room is a good size, and the outside is well lit and spacious. The whole venue is well decorate and the staff try to keep it looking good the whole night.
Would recommend for smaller weddings.

Went here for a lovely wedding and it was amazing. Really beautiful building and grounds and the garden where the wedding took place was stunning. The food was brilliant as was the service, it was the perfect setting for the occasion. Plenty of inside and outside space with two bars and a large dinning room. Highly recommend for a big occasion.

We had our wedding day here on the bank holiday weekend in August! Honestly cannot fault this place in the slightest. Kelly is the most amazing person - inside and out! She made this whole experience completely stress free and comfortable - there was nothing for us to worry about - they completely took care of everything! The food was out of this world! The staff went above and beyond to help! They were all so friendly and welcoming! The place is stunning!! They laid out all the tables exactly how we wanted - we literally showed up on the day and everything was taken care of! It was an amazing
