HDK Events Ltd Reviews

Travis Redfern 2026.09.14

     

I recently had my stag organised by the guys at HDK. This was particularly stressful as, despite being the groom, I had to organise it myself. Further to that, I was fairly particular about what I wanted to do. I didn't have much time to sort it, maybe two months tops- if that. The second I found HDK and spoke to the legend that is Greg, everything was simple. From the initial phone call to the continued messaging and support in the organisation process, he was ace. I gave the ideas I was thinking of, he then broke it down as to how he would genuinely recommend doing them, what order, etc. Safe to say he was spot on. From the recommendation about the catered BBQ to the paintball and quad biking on the same day, just top notch recommendations. The accommodation in the lodges at The Raddle Inn were phenomenal as was the hosting by the guys too. Now, this is not an exaggeration, but was genuinely the perfect weekend- everything I had ever envisioned for my own stag. We were quite a big group, around 18 people. He recommended over three lodges, which worked out perfectly. On top of all of that, the package was incredibly affordable for EVERYTHING we got as part of it. That was something that everyone throughout the weekend kept mentioning to me. It has been roughly a month now, as I write this, since the stag and I still get guys who went on it saying how much fun it was, how great the accommodation was, how well organised it was, and just how incredible it all was for how cheap it was/affordable it was. No doubt I will want an adventure weekend up north soon (I'm south west- Stoke is north for me), and without a shadow of doubt, I will organise it through Greg, the guys at HDK and have, yet again, a class weekend. Wouldn't have gone with anyone else to organise it, and I say that truthfully.

I cannot recommend HDK enough! They were so efficient, responsive and flexible and they can offer such a range of activities and outstanding accommodation to meet every need! Being able to speak and message directly via WhatsApp really adds to the service and their great communication. Greg and the team know more about the industry than anyone and having everything sorted through one company really put my mind at ease! 5 stars isn't enough!

As a Best Man, Hard Days Knight were excellent at helping organise the Stag Do I had planned. I gave them a brief of what we were looking for, they sent me a range of accommodation options and activity options and away I went with planning! Greg was so helpful at identifying the best accommodation for our needs. All we had to do was pay the money and he booked the accommodation and activities for us. The Stables accommodation was perfect. Big house, loads of rooms and beds, big living area and big kitchen diner with pool table. A big open courtyard to socialise in with a huge field just next to us to relax away from the building and play some games. There were 2 big families with young children staying in adjacent accommodation - they were fine with us being there as a stag do and it was all very respectful! The activities were great. We had Joe and his team from Team T Events come and deliver a Traitors-themed experience which was so much fun. Loads of mini challenges and you get to vote people you think are the traitor around the round table too. We did the Zombies experience where you are armed with a small BB gun and run around a maze shooting zombies and doing challenges, again a whole load of fun in a big group of lads. We then did a pub crawl around Ashbourne/Uttoxeter where Greg had organised a minibus driven by a lovely lady called Sheila to take us to 4 different pubs. It was absolutely great fun. Honestly, couldn't have asked for more and the stag do got rave reviews from all the boys on it! Thank you so much!

HDK organised a stag do for a group of 16 of us. Greg was great, and organised everything from activities and food back at the accommodation to evening taxis and had endless amounts of recommendations for us. If you’re after a great organised weekend, then definitely use HDK. Thanks again Greg and Kim.

I can’t recommend Hard Days Knight highly enough. I organised a 10-man stag weekend, and Greg and the team made what could have been a stressful job incredibly straightforward. From the first enquiry through to the weekend itself, communication was excellent. Messages were answered quickly, nothing was too much trouble, and they were always happy to offer advice or make changes as our plans evolved. They organised much of the accommodation and activities, and everything ran exactly as promised. It’s refreshing to deal with a company that delivers what they say it will. Having one point of contact for multiple bookings made life so much easier than trying to coordinate everything myself. What impressed me most was the customer service. Greg genuinely cared about making sure we had a great weekend rather than simply taking a booking. Even during the weekend, he was available if we needed anything, which gave real peace of mind when organising a group. The accommodation was an outstanding venue and was perfect for our group. Combined with the activities and smooth organisation, it made for a memorable weekend, and the groom had an absolutely brilliant time. If you’re the unlucky, or lucky, person who’s been given the job of organising a stag do, I’d strongly recommend speaking to Hard Days Knight. They take away a huge amount of the hassle and allow you to enjoy the weekend rather than worrying about the logistics. A well-deserved 5 stars. Thanks again to Greg and the team. We’ll definitely be recommending you to others.

Can’t recommend Greg highly enough. We’d spent ages trying to find accommodation in the area with no luck, and he managed to sort exactly what we needed where we couldn’t. From there it was seamless. His communication was brilliant throughout, always on hand with voice and video calls and regular WhatsApp updates so we always knew where things stood. He went well above and beyond too, happily organising transport for activities we’d arranged ourselves rather than just sticking to what he’d booked. And his premium BBQ recommendation ended up being one of the highlights of the whole weekend. Genuinely couldn’t have asked for more. Thanks Greg!

Misleading and unethical practices This company operates fraudulently by copying property listings from the internet and republishing them on their own site, inflating prices by 30-40%. They falsely claim to work with property owners, but they do not, taking profits and leaving owners unaware of bookings. The owner, Greg, books properties without proper agreements, which causes legal risks and complications for both owners and guests. Guests are often misled, thinking the properties are suited for events, creating potential conflicts. It’s far better and cheaper to book directly with property owners.

I’ve worked with Greg and Kim at HDK a number of times now to help organise some incredible stag weekends, and every experience has been excellent. They’ve always been approachable, responsive, and a pleasure to deal with. I really appreciate their honest advice when I’ve tried to squeeze too much into a single day, as well as their sensible suggestions that have made the whole event flow much better. Everything they’ve arranged has gone exactly to plan, which meant I could actually relax and enjoy the weekend as an attendee rather than worrying about the logistics. The feedback from everyone has always been fantastic. Thanks again, HDK – I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you.
