Testimonials for Macdonald Linden Hall Golf & Country Club

I'm wititng to say how thrilled myself and my new husband are with the beautiful wedding day we had at Macdonald Linden Hall in Northumberland.  Everything was taken care of right down to the last detail, the food was delicious and Karen and the team went out of their way to make sure we had a special day!  In particular, thanks goes to Karen who was incredibly busy all day running around with tissues for me, keeping an eye on my dog, serving us our wedding breakfast, helping the DJ and then serving us our hot buffet.  She worked incredibly hard all day and really put us at ease, she is a genuinely lovely, polite, caring and patient woman and we feel very lucky to have had her support us through our day.

Many thanks for a wonderful day that we will never forget!

On behalf of my wife and I, I would like to sincerely thank you and all the staff at Macdonald Linden Hall Golf & Country Club for the excellent service provided at my daughters wedding.  Their kindness and professionalism and help given to Jennifer and Gordon made their day.

A special thank you to Karen.  The meals were excellent, and putting "Happy Brithday" on Jennifers sweet plate was such a nice touch.

I will have no hesitation in recommending Macdonald Linden Hall Golf & Country Club to anyone who is looking for a function venue.

I'm Izzy's mum and now that I've got time to think it's dawned on me how much I would like to thank all the staff for their help on Izzy and Neil's special day.  Especially Karen, which I've only just realised was always on hand to assist and guide when needed.  From carrying my husband's drink around with him (to calm his nerves) to giving every assistance to my dad who was unwell but made sure the photos were still taken (many thanks), gathering all momentos for Izzy to keep, and dealing promptly and efficiently with any incidents...all these little touches are the ones which make a day so special and we can't thank her enough.  Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the lovely memories...

We can't recommend Linden Hall Highly enough!!  Everyone there worked amazingly hard and made sure everything ran perfectly.  Nothing was too much trouble.

We've had so many messages from friends and family saying how beautiful Linden is and everything was immaculately clean and neat.  We would like to take this opportunity to say how happy we were with the service we recieved from Sophie, too.  You were always happy to talk to me.

First of all many thanks for Sophie's help these last few months.  Everything on Saturday went perfectly as a result of your and the rest of the teams hard work.  We will pop along after our honeymood to say a proper thank you.

Can I just say a massive thank you to Sophie for all your help on the day of our wedding.  We had the most amazing day and your help and support on the day was very much appreciated.

The support of you and Karen in advance of the day, and you and Karen on the day, were very much appreciated by us both.  Our friends and family also had a fantastic day, and this was largely down to the venue and the work for you and your team.  

I want to start by saying that myself, Richard and all of our guests had an amazing day.  The service provided by Linden Hall was great.  It was so good to see our hard work come together.

Our family and friends had high praise for the staff at Linden, particularly when it came to our wedding breakfast - the service was fantastic, and we were well and truly taken care of.

I would highly recommend Linden Hall as an exceptional wedding venue!  I would also like to thank yourself Sophie in the preparations in the lead up to the wedding.  I was made to feel I could contact Sophie at any time even if it was about the smallest of things!  She always answered my queries and I am very grateful for that.

We look forward to visiting Linden Hall in the future as it holds fantastic memories for our perfect day!

We had a fantastic day with yourselves.  Sophie, Karen and her staff who worked with us on out special day were amazing, they went above and beyond for us.  What made it even better was that they used a lot of iniciative and noticed we had spare butterflies, so attached them to our flowers and other extra things.  We were exstatic when we saw our room all set up.  I would like to also give extra praise to both master of ceremonies who worked that day, they made both Stephen and myself feel so at ease with everything.

I would like to especially thank every member of staff who worked with us on our big day and made it beautiful. special and very memorable.

Thank you so much.

Our wedding day was amazing and we couldn't thank Sophie and your team any more, especially the master of ceremonies we had on the day as she addressed it all so nicely and made it extra special for myself, David and all out guests.  If you could pass this on to her as I would love for her to hear this.

We had a fantastic wedding day at Linden Hall, so many thanks to Sophie and your team.  Our gueats were equally impressed with the whole day which made the memory a lot more special to us.  The food, both the wedding breakfast and evening buffet, were delicious!

Thank you again for all your help and we would appreciate it if you would pass on our gratitude to your team, especially Karen.

Our wedding day was fantastic and everything at Linden Hall was perfect.  The venue, the rooms and the quality of the food were superb.  

A special thanks to Karen and the staff on the day, they ensured the timing of everything was perfect she kept checking to make sure we were happy with everything.  I would highly recommend Linden Hall as the perfect venue.

We are hoping to come back in the future for a few nights to enjoy the facilities and remember our magical day.

Best wishes and many thanks,

A very happy bride and groom

We got married at Linden Hall on Sat 25th September 2010. Words can not describe our experience. I know everyone says that their wedding day was the most special day of their life, but ours truly was. From start to finish, the staff catered to our every need/request and nothing was too much trouble. The hotel itself is simply breathtaking, a picture perfect setting for a wedding, with the most beautiful grounds for your photographs, or just a romantic walk. Angela the wedding coordinator is the most organised and professional person, whilst at the same time kind and caring, with a good sense of humour (which is needed with the stress of a wedding). All we can really say is...we wish our day never had to end, it was perfect. We will be back at Linden Hall before the year's out to stay over and I'm sure every year from now as it certainly has gained a very special place in our hearts.

We stayed here for our small wedding ceremony and had a very lovely time. It is a very beautiful place and the staff is very kind and helpful. We had a lot of help from the wedding coordinator Angela, before we arrived so many thanks to her, and as well to the rest of the staff for making our stay the best.

Overall, the day was perfect. Even the rain didn't spoil it. I suppose it proves you can have a wedding on Friday 13th without things going wrong! Angela Carruthers was our wedding planner and she was amazing. She always got back to us straight away if we had any queries. She was also back and forth down stairs to the place we nickname the 'dungeon' to get samples of things if I wanted to look at things. In fact, we had no problems with any of the employees at Linden Hall. They offered their services for help, even when the female wedding party was getting flustered; they came up to my room and offered to help with anything if they could! I would certainly recommend this hotel to anybody wanting a relaxing break in luxurious surroundings where your every need is catered for and of course a wedding!

We had our wedding reception here and it was fantastic! The location/grounds were lovely and the staff who attended to our function were great. Nothing was any bother to them and they made us and our guests relaxed. They were discreet, friendly and very professional. Particular thanks to Rachel and the Master of Ceremony Victoria.
The food prepared by Daniel the Chef was delicious and was served fresh and hot for such a large group! We would recommend the chocolate and orange marquise for pudding! Yum!
The reception was very well organised, helped along with way by Angela the coordinator, with any queries or concerns answered and suggestions made which put us nicely at ease. There was no hard sell in the process which was pleasing.
Overall a BIG THANK YOU to everyone there!!

We just wanted to send a quick note to say a HUGE THANK YOU to yourself and your team for all your hard work that went towards making our special day a fantastic one!
Personal thank you to yourself for helping us put together what can only be described as an incredible day and we can honestly say if it wasn't for you we're certain it would not have been as beautiful and as organised as it was!!!Special thanks also for organising those additional photos with Mark, we have to say the ones in the Garden are our favourite.
Secondly to the staff that worked on the day, we've never seen staff work as hard and be as attentive as the staff at Linden Hall. Nothing was ever a problem and they did everything with a smile on their face!
Thanks again for everything, and we look forward to seeing you again at weddings we hope to be invited to up at Linden!

I held my wedding at Linden Hall just yesterday and I can't begin to tell you how perfect the venue and staff were, from start to finish Angela Carruthers the wedding coordinator has been amazing, not only was she exceptional at her job but she has become a good friend too, her dedication and support has been 110%
Nothing was too much trouble for Angela, David and Glenn, they took great pride in their work and upheld the fantastic name of Linden Hall through their high standard, and professional service throughout. I was amazed at 2am this morning to find Glenn still there (having been there throughout the whole day too as our Master of Ceremony) still making sure all our guests received an outstanding service.
David was exceptional too, who also prided himself in ensuring our day was perfect, which it was thanks to the team of Linden Hall, all the staff were fabulous also including Laura the receptionist she was so kind and it was lovely knowing she was there to offer any further assistance with rooms - and also managed to help me into my dress!! It just goes to show the length the staff will go to too ensure your day is everything you dreamed of.
I would highly recommend Linden Hall and their staff to anybody wishing to hold any kind of event there. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Angela, Glenn, David, Laura and all the staff for making my day so perfect in everyway.

During the run up to the day Angela, the wedding coordinator was very supportive and efficient, keeping us informed at all times.
I would recommend Linden to anyone looking for a wedding venue. They have weddings all the time (which explains why they are so good at them) but we truly felt very special all day.

All of our wedding preparation needs were taken care of by Angela who really did look after everything, down to all my little requests. She made it easy trying to plan things and with us living so far from the hotel she was a God send and made it very stress free.
We could not have chosen a more wonderful place to get married. We were able to create the fabulous, romantic wedding we'd pictured to spoil ourselves and our guests due to the wonderful setting and staff. The value for money cannot be compared to any of the other places we had brochures for either.
The morning of the wedding Angela appeared at my door with a glass of champagne to calm the nerves and appeared again to say good luck just before entering the ceremony room. I thought this was extremely thoughtful as most of our contact had been only through phone and email. The morning after the wedding we received a bottle of champagne from the hotel and the breakfast was delicious. It was the personal touches from the hotel staff which meant so much.

We chose Linden Hall as our wedding venue and what a wonderful decision it was! It was the most perfect day - everything we'd imagined it would be and so much more. The staff were courteous, efficient and very friendly. The master of ceremonies was absolutely fantastic in ensuring the day went so smoothly from start to finish, yet was so discreet and professional in the process. The duty manager went out of his way to ensure all our guests were well looked after and provided a first class service. Chris the head chef went beyond the call of duty to serve up the most delicious canapés followed by a superb 5-course meal. It was truly wonderful cuisine and our guests are still talking about it. Lastly, special thanks to Angela the wedding planner, who made us feel so relaxed and excited about our special day knowing it was in her organised and capable hands. She was a dream to work with - friendly, very experienced, professional and calming.
With outstanding grounds, top-class facilities and amazing service it really was the perfect wedding day - nothing was too much.
Linden Hall and its fantastic staff met all our expectations and we'd like to extend our thanks for such a memorable and special day that we will remember and talk about forever!

I have finally had a chance to sit down after a whirl wind 4 weeks since I got married and it's about time I said a few words of thanks towards all the staff at Linden Hall. This hotel is set in a picturesque setting just outside Morpeth in Northumbria, I knew after one visit that this was the place that my now wife and myself would have wanted to get married and thank you to all the staff who made our special day that extra bit special. Our wedding planner Angela went over and beyond the call of duty in organising our wedding to the point of working late to suit our schedule and for helping us remember all the small details that as a man I would have forgotten. On the day we handed over to our master of ceremonies, Glen who pointed me in all the right directions and helped me remember all the important items, my name for a start as the nerves kicked in. The day went perfectly, the setting was idyllic and even a slight touch of rain didn't dampen any festivities. The food was more than we could have wished for with even the smallest food allergies being taken into consideration. The following morning we were greeted by David who catered to our every request and who made us feel more special than we already felt.
And yes we will be going back to Linden Hall for many years to come.

The whole experience with Linden Hall in particular Angela (the wedding planner) was five star. Angela helped us map the day out and gave us contacts to sort various parts out. The package that was offered to us was far better than we could ever imagine and made the day very special. Nothing was too much. Other places we talked to were totally inflexible on certain requests, Linden Hall basically fitted the day to what we wanted, which is very rare.
If you are thinking of having a wedding, I honestly think this place can not be beat and the way it is organised and run you would have an amazing day.
Thank you to Linden Hall.

Where to start really... a huge big thank you to our wedding planner Angela, you made our day so special and all the preparation was amazing and very easy going, a pleasure to have your help in organising our fantastic day!
