One perfect day

Luke and the team at Dovecliff did a great job of making sur we had the best day. They were really supportive with our planning to make sure we had everything sorted in advance, and then on the day everything went brilliantly. The venue looked beautiful, the food was really good - lots of guests complimented it! We had a really good planning meeting to go through our schedule for the day and the team helped everything go to plan - thanks so much!

We had the best wedding ever!!!!

After my proposal in August, my (now wife) partner shortlisted Dovecliff as her dream venue. We discounted it as too expensive and out of our league at the time. A month later.....We attended a wedding fayre at Dovecliff Hall Hotel and had the best time, and had a walk around the venue as well as speaking to staff and other suppliers. Needless to say, we booked there and then. Having been simply blown away by the venue and the package we were offered, it fit almost exactly what we had planned in our minds. Other local venues had quoted and were super keen on price, but Dovecliff offers sooooo much more. The venue itself, the hotel rooms, the food, the bar, the staff, I could go on. We are 2 weeks+ married and wish we could go back and do it all again at Dovecliff Hall Hotel. You are all superstars!!!!!! You all made our day so very special!!

The Best Day of Our Lives

Where to start! Our wedding was postponed three times due to the Covid 19 Pandemic, and each and every time Dovecliff Hall were there to guide and support us in every way possible. Our wedding day, which was on the hottest and most beautiful day of the year only got better and better as the day went on. To wake up and the sun to be already shining, it was magical! The Grounds were breathtaking.. The team at Dovecliff were amazing all throughout the day, they tried there hardest to keep all the guests comfortable in the sweltering heat, and made sure everything ran smoothly. We had the most beautiful day, and it truly was the best day of our lives. Myself and my Husband cannot thank the team at Dovecliff enough for all there help and support, which meant our day could be as beautiful as it turned out to be!

We truly found a hidden gem

We had our fabulous wedding at Dovecliff Hall, 28th May 2019, and if we could turn back time and do it all over again, we would and we wouldn't change a single thing. The venue, the grounds, the staff , the food and drink everything was exceptional, we truly found a hidden gem. All our guests commented on the delicious food (which was plentiful) and the beautiful venue and gardens.

Above and beyond to make it the day we'd dreamt of

The team at Dovecliff Hall Hotel we’re absolutely fantastic! With the preparations before the wedding... no ask was too small and they went above and beyond to do everything they possibly could to make it the day we’d dreamt of. On the big day things couldn’t have gone more smoothly... most importantly the food was incredible! we had canapés during the photos and then a 3 course sit down meal followed by an evening buffet and I can’t say one bad word about any of it! Overall our wedding day went exactly as we dreamt...!

Outstanding Venue

I can’t praise this venue enough that I supply dance floors for. Great communication with all the staff from start to finish making it a pleasure to work with. After speaking to my customers, some who have booked from my recommendation, all totally agree with me. Stunning venue with fabulous staff, if you are looking for a wow factor, this is the venue.

Wow amazing wedding experience!

We recently had our much delayed and re-arranged wedding at this beautiful venue which was spectacular from the interior to the exterior. It was so surreal - the whole experience was beyond our expectations. We booked a number of rooms for the night before for the groom and some guests. There was a music tribute night on the Friday night and the staff accommodated us by providing us with exclusive use of the library room for our privacy, including dining and the remaining evening. On the day of our wedding, staff ensured a perfectly smooth event. We had exclusive use of the whole hotel and grounds, enabling guests to arrive earlier and relax in a beautiful environment. The grounds are well-maintained in addition to the immaculate high standard of the rooms. The bridal suite exceeded our expectations with an amazing view of the grounds. Our gratitude to Luke, Ruth and the team and in particular to the chef who mastered the perfection of gluten free pastry. The guests have commented on how spectacular the food was in addition to the venue. We thank you for making our day sooooo amazing and look forward to visiting you all again.
