The Mill at Hoveringham invites you to design a wedding that’s truly your own, with a breathtaking rural backdrop and the full flexibility of a truly unique dry‑hire venue that puts you in control of every detail. Set beside the gentle flow of the Dover Beck and surrounded by stunning Nottinghamshire countryside, this rural venue allows you to shape your celebration exactly as you’ve always imagined - your style, your suppliers, your budget, your way.
From the moment you turn onto the private winding driveway, the magic of The Mill begins to reveal itself. The beautifully restored historic threshing barn - with its soaring rustic beams, soft ambient lighting, and warm, natural textures - sets the scene for heartfelt ceremonies and unforgettable receptions. Step outside into the atmospheric courtyard, where the mill‑stone water feature and glowing fire pit create a romantic backdrop for drinks, laughter, and late‑night conversations under the stars.
Just a few steps away, the Grade II listed Georgian farmhouse offers charming onsite accommodation, with six elegantly styled bedrooms that blend period character with modern comfort. It’s the perfect place for your closest friends and family to gather, unwind, and wake up to the excitement of the day ahead.
As a fully dry‑hire venue, The Mill at Hoveringham gives you complete creative control with access from 12pm the day before your wedding. Whether you dream of a relaxed festival‑style celebration, a candle‑lit rustic banquet, or a chic contemporary affair, you have the freedom to bring your vision to life - without the constraints of generic fixed packages. You choose the team, the décor, the food, the flow of the day, and the budget that works for you.
With exclusive use of the entire venue, your wedding becomes a completely private haven - intimate, personal, and entirely your own. From first look to final sparkler, The Mill at Hoveringham offers a setting where memories are made, stories begin, and every moment feels beautifully, authentically you.
A dry‑hire wedding venue gives you the space to host your celebration but leaves the rest entirely in your hands. Instead of fixed packages, you get a true blank canvas - perfect for couples who want full creative freedom. Dry hire simply means the venue provides the setting, while you choose your own caterers, décor, entertainment, and suppliers.
