Dovecote Events (Barn & Tipi Venue), Dovecote Barn

My wife and I got married at Dovecote in August 2024 and it was absolutely magical. From the moment we met the organised, Mel, Matt and the team, we knew we wanted to get married here. The venue itself is beautiful, quiet and clean. The facilities are excellent. We got married in the barn and then had our party in the Tipi. The barn is rustic, without feeling old. It was decorated with lovely lighting and furnishings and looked majestic for our day. Then we went to the Tipi outside which gave the feel of a festival, surrounded by good friends, great music. The food was excellent. People commented that it was one of the best wedding meals they had. Everything was wonderful and flawless. But where Dovecote really shines is with the staff: everyone was eager to be helpful, kind, polite, and service with a smile. They made us feel special, and cared for our guests just the same. Nothing was too much for them. Everything was where it should be and the day went without any problems whatsoever. I can say with all my heart that Dovecote is highly recommended as a wedding venue - it was a perfect start to married life. Thank you so much!

We had a team away day at the Dovecote this summer and the day fulfilled our expectations and more! The venue is beautiful and is a wonderful space. We had our conference in the barn, followed by a walk around the grounds and a party in the tee-pee for the evening. The feedback from our employees was that it was the best event we've held so far, and that's certainly testament to the wonderful venue and team at Dovecote. Thank you!

From the first time we set foot in Dovecote we knew it was where we wanted to get married. From the warm welcome we had from Melanie, to the beautiful barn, stunning tipi and spectacular grounds, we were blown away. Every step of the way the whole team were so helpful, and left us feeling so excited and stress-free going into the day. The private food tasting with Lauren, Tom and Matthew was a real highlight and our dietary requirements were catered for so thoughtfully - huge thank you to chefs Tim (x2) and team. Setting up the tipi the day before the wedding could not have gone smoother thanks to so many of the team being available to support. And of course, the day itself was perfect and everything that we hoped it would be, special thanks to Lauren for accepting my last minute deliveries and ensuring everything ran so smoothly, with Cece, Tom and co. All of our guests commented on how beautiful our venue was, and we couldn’t be happier that we chose you. We cannot wait to find an excuse to come back and see you all soon! Tom & Georgia (24/5/24)
