We recently got married at Danby Castle, what a perfect venue. Everything was brilliant, the planning was easy, and the day went so well. All the staff were brilliant and the service was great. The food throughout the day was excellent, and commented on by our guests. The team at Danby made the day go perfectly from setting up to clearing away at the end of the night. Everything was on time and as requested. The location is amazing and the venue is very well looked after. Would recommend Danby Castle as the perfect place to get married.

Our whole experience with Danby Castle wedding barn was exceptional, to say the least. From the first meeting with Laura, who was absolutely lovely and made us fall in love with Danby, to our amazing co-ordinator, Ruby, who made the whole experience so stress free, it just felt too easy. The whole team just cannot do enough for you, with contact there when you need it, to help with any stressy brides wobbles. It hurt our hearts to leave this place when we collected our belongings the next day, because the day was so magical, emotional and personal. Special mention to Brittany and the night staff also who made the party light up!!! Love these guys❤️

We got married here on 3rd July and staff were brilliant, took care of everything for us and everything was perfect on the day. The venue itself is intimate and so beautiful in the most picture perfect setting with the best views!

We only needed to look around the one venue because as soon as we walked into Danby Castle we knew it was the place for us. Everything about it is completely stunning.
The views are uninterrupted and awe-inspiring, the castle ruins are so cool and the kids/big kids loved exploring them. The ceremony room is cosy and intimate whilst still fitting plenty of people in, and the barn for the reception is completely gorgeous. We loved that the dancefloor and bar are in a little add on barn, so you don’t need to do the whole switching around of tables and rooms as required at many venues, leaving plenty of space for people to sit away from the dancing if they need a break.. There’s a brand new, gorgeous getting ready room which was perfect for the bridal party to have their makeup done in the morning. There are quirky little areas/separate barn spaces to use so you move from one area to another throughout the day. Having exclusive hire of the whole place, set in the middle of nowhere, with everyone you love in one place is beyond amazing.
The staff were all wonderful in the run up and on the day and loads of guests commented on how fab they were. A MASSIVE thank you to Rachael our coordinator who was so SO helpful at every stage, always contactable and responded quickly to any questions, always totally lovely. We were given free reign to set up ourselves the day before, but you could add as much or as little the venue as you want and it would still be breath-taking without a single decoration added.
The food was incredibly tasty, canopes of Yorkshire puddings and sausage suited us to a tee, and the pie and mash main was complemented by everyone there (I am running out of superlatives here!).
I cannot believe how lucky we were to get married at Danby Castle. If you are reading reviews to decide whether to book here, stop looking and do it. Best decision ever. Can’t thank you all enough.

Danby Castle was a our dream wedding venue as soon as we set eyes on it, truly beautiful! The team at Danby can’t do enough for you, we couldn’t recommend them enough! They made sure the run up to & the day ran smoothly and that we had everything we needed. We’d recommend Danby Castle to anyone!

Carolyn and Phil Thank you so much for such an amazing day! Our wedding was truly perfect - even when it rained! (In fact, the rain added to the fun!) Nothing was too much trouble - you made sure everything ran smoothly and all of our guests commented on the calm, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere and of course that beautiful view! The food was excellent. Those pies have got to be the best we've ever tasted and the mini desserts were delicious! From when we first visited, to the wedding day itself, you have both been so friendly and we are truly grateful for all of your help. We just knew straight away that we wanted to celebrate our wedding at Danby Castle, and it really was the best day ever. Lots of love, Jennie and Jamie

Thank you so much for an amazing day! It was truly perfect. Carolyn, Phil (and Max) made it a very special day that we will never forget. We received so many compliments about the venue, the smooth running of the day, the food and the drink. Those pies were absolutely delicious!! Our guests were blown away by the venue itself and the views across the North Yorkshire Moors. We would certainly recommend anyone considering a wedding at Danby Castle to book it!!

Thank you so much to Carolyn, Phil and Max for making our day so very special. Food was amazing and service to match. If only we could do it all again x

I was very lucky to be a part of Natalie and Toms wedding last weekend at Danby Castle! We had a fab weekend, Beautiful venue and the staff were great! Really enjoyed the afternoon tea and the fish and chip! would highly recommend! Lydia xx

Dear Carolyn and Phil There are not enough words to explain how grateful we are for everything you did for us on 20th May. The entire day as perfect and beyond our wildest dreams. Never did we imagine it would be that fantastic (and we knew it would be great!) We can't wait to share the photos with you! Lots of love Emma and Benji xx

Carolyn and Phillip We just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for your help and support with our wedding. We had a fantastic day. Every one of our guests commented on what a wonderful set up and magical place. The whole day from start to finish was better than we could imagine. Thank you so much! And please pass on our thanks to the catering team. The food was brilliant! Love Matt and Marie Young

Hi Carolyn I want to take the opportunity again to thank you for everything yesterday, you and Phil were fantastic and everything was absolutely perfect. Your staff are wonderful, so attentive and a special mention to Max who was just brilliant all day, he really looked after us and made the place look amazing. We had the best day, I want to do it all again! Thanks, Amy & Matt

Danby Castle is the perfect setting for a wedding amidst romantic ruins & stunning scenes of the North Yorks Moors. Of course a lot of planning goes into a wedding & the magic started when Sarah & Darran met the amazing Carolyn & family who own the castle. They are wonderful hosts & make every wedding unique & completely tailored to the couple's taste. The options Sarah & Darran were offered were immense & it was a hard choice. Everything from formal wedding breakfasts to ice-cream & fish & chip vans in the courtyard. Sarah & Darran opted for a Mad Hatter's tea party. The table settings were quirky with, of course, mis-matched crockery, perfect for an Alice in Wonderland fan. Max's unerring eye for detail provided the perfect decoration.The food was fantastic & so much of it; finger sandwiches, savouries, scones, exquisite desserts & huge drink me teapots full of tea. The evening supper was equally wonderful & I don't know how I didn't burst out of my dress. All the staff led by Carolyn, Phil & Max, provided a wonderful service, unobtrusive, friendly & always there to see that everyone was well looked after & never short of anything. Even at the end of the evening when our taxi was nearly an hour late, Carolyn & Phil continued to welcome us into their home & were even going to take us home themselves. This truly was a happy, magical & wonderful day which we will never forget. I cannot recommend Danby Castle & Carolyn and family enough for this. I think I will have to get married again so I can relive this day again. Carole Benson.

I can't recommend this place highly enough! Superb venue, wonderful staff and they make you feel very special indeed. Carolyn, Phil and Max are the best hosts. Thanks again guys x

Carolyn, Phil, Max an everyone else involved making our day perfect! We really cannot thank you all enough for making our wedding day the best day we could ever imagine. We feel so lucky to have had our wedding at the castle, the day was everything we had wished for and more. We can't recommend you enough to others and cant stop telling everyone how amazing Danby really is. All our friends an family had a fantastic time...the food, the views. The venue and all the staff made our day something we will never forget. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Rob, Sam and Poppy xx
