Dunwood Hall Estate

Used the air b and b....excellent. Clean and stylish

Researched because of interest that a historical hall is so close to where I live. Glad that the hall is being lived in and can be booked for special occasions but secretly disappointed that it's a piece of history that I can't visit 'just for the day'

Its only foreverfor this very reason it was important for us to find a venue which reflected us and what we are about. Dunwood Hall surpassed all expectations. Our wedding ceremony and celebrations were absolutely perfect. So many guests commented that it was the best wedding theyd ever been to; it all felt so relaxed, intimate and filled with love. Everything we dreamed of was accommodated - to the finest of personalised details. This is not a run-of-the-mill venue; it is a beautiful, neo-gothic family home which gives guests a luxurious and unique experience for a few lucky couples each year. The house and grounds are stunning- quirky, unique and intimate with acres of fields, and numerous garden areas to explore, alongside a fresh water swimming pool. Multiple indoor areas allowed our friends and family to mingle, dance or chill as they wished. Moving between the sunny orangery, outdoor terrace lounge, dining room, opulent hallway bar with grand piano, music room and the cosy snug with open fire. Erika and Brodie are wonderful hosts, We were encouraged to do things our way rather than worrying about what others expected or what tradition dictates. This ultimately resulted in a wedding which was so meaningful to us, surrounded by the people we wanted to celebrate with. Trust in Erika and Brodies experience and advice. They know what works and what doesnt. Our experience was fully bespoke with ongoing support throughout a year of meticulous planning as well as during our wonderful weekend of love and fun. Erika and Brodies attention to detail, friendly comms and wicked sense of humour meant that they became an integral part of our weekend; chatting and celebrating alongside us all, whilst somehow also ensuring the smooth running of events at the same time. That is no mean feat; they are incredible! As a dog-friendly venue it was a joy to have our cavachon as ring-bearer and our friends little yorkies as pooch-maids, complete with flower garland collars. Resident doggos, Chisel and Lourdie, were perfect hosts too and even guided some guests to the orangery for the ceremony as they arrived! We recommend booking the venue and on-site accommodation for the entire weekend (Friday to Sunday) as we did. This allowed us time to give 10 of our guests a weekend away whilst also settling in and getting organised well in advance so the wedding day itself was completely stress free. The newly refurbished on-site accommodation is gorgeous! Especially the Bridal suite, with far reaching views of the local hills, an en-suite featuring a roll top bath, and the most beautiful toilet weve ever seen! As an LGBTQ couple, it was also important for us to choose an inclusive venue where we would be understood and welcomed with open arms. We felt 100% comfortable to be ourselves; allowing us to fully enjoy an amazing and magical experience.

Wonderful weekend family wedding here

Dunwood Hall is the most beautiful house & wedding venue. Our daughters wedding was held there just last week & over 2 days. The owners Erika & Brodie ensure that the day is perfect & special in every way. They are so accommodating especially as theyre opening up their beautiful home to a lot of people. The self contained apartments are fabulous; beautifully furnished to a very high standard, plenty of room for the bride & bridesmaids to get ready & the views are outstanding. The wedding day itself was magical & the weather was perfect. The gardens & swimming pool area make it the perfect spot for photos, drinks & canaps;!we even held the speeches outside. I would 100% recommend Dunwood Hall for a wedding; its a beautiful home that we didnt want to leave! We wish we could do it all again!
