    An awesome and unique wedding venue

    I can’t rave about our wedding venue Tunnels enough ! It really is the perfect venue. A very special place run by a lovely team who make your day feel relaxed but also run like clockwork !

    Everything you read about the venue are true - the setting, the food, the atmosphere all make Tunnels feels so private and special.

    If you’re considering it as your venue then make the journey and see for yourself ! We visited on a cold drizzly February day and fell in love with it - it really can be an all weather venue but the team will do everything to make sure you get an outdoor ceremony if that’s...

    Our dream wedding

    Tunnels Beaches - wow. We got married here in July 2024 and we were blown away, as were all of our guests. People are still talking about the wedding now. The staff at Tunnels completely made the day for us, with their willingness to go over and above to ensure everything ran perfectly on the day. Our guests were not only blown away by the picturesque views, but the exceptional food served and the overall relaxed atmosphere of the venue in general. We will be talking about our big day for a long long time.

    Fantastic Autumn Wedding at the Tunnel Beaches

    The venue is fantastic. The staff were incredibly attentive and polite, without being in the way or intrusive. The accommodation was perfect for our group as we could have the entire family under one roof. The first time you walk down the tunnel to the beaches, the view really impresses you, it's incredible. We were very lucky with the weather (having chosen to run the risk of an autumn wedding). The rough seas and moodier sky were the perfect backdrop for our photos.

    The food was excellent. The PA system worked perfectly and really filled the space with the songs Jen had chosen for her aisle walk and while the rest of the family were mixing after...

    The perfect venue

    The team at Tunnels have been nothing but incredible since the very start of our wedding journey. We always knew Tunnels was the place for us and fell in love with it before we’d even visited. What we didn’t know was how the team would make our special day even more perfect than we could have ever imagined. We are still overwhelmed with the kindness from all of you and the hard work you all showed to ensure we had the best day we could ever wish for. And that it was… absolutely perfect!

    We stayed in The Courtyard and Bath House with our favourite people and it was so lovely being able to go for a tidal...

    The most magical day!

    Tunnels really is the most magical venue. It was the first and only location we visited and it instantly took our breath away the moment we saw the view we would all be sharing on the day. With huge expectations, luckily for us it wasn't just the view that was spectacular. The organisation was seamless from start to finish and Jamie, Jaqs and the team couldn't have done more for us. Getting married the first weekend of September, the weather could have gone either way, but with back up plans of the same ocean view we had no worries. On the day, it was quite temperamental, however the team were able to ensure an outside wedding right up until...

    The best venue

    Everything about Tunnels Beaches was perfect, from first contact, to securing the date, the lead up & the day itself was a walk in the park and nothing ever felt too much for the team at Tunnels. The venue is unparalleled, it was simply perfect & every single guest was left speechless. The food was simply sensational & we also opted for the paella the evening before & we were so glad we did! Our day was everything we imagined & more. Thank you so much Jamie & the team

    Wedding of the year

    Quite literally the best day of not just our lives but all our friends and family. The day was just perfect from the minute we arrived to the minute we left!

    The 2 houses were spotless and anything we needed you guys were on hand to sort it!

    On the day of the wedding ‘Jaques’ (not sure on spelling) was lovely and made us feel at ease making the day run like clockwork. Just everything about the houses & venue is utterly amazing and you guys are smashing it so thank you so much again for hosting the wedding of a lifetime!

    Best wedding day

    Our wedding was absolutely fantastic and definitely made so by how fantastic Tunnels was. Not only does Tunnels give you the insane views and scenery, but they made the entire wedding planning process so easy and the day so seamless. The staff were absolutely incredible ensuring that every little detail was perfect.

    We stayed in bath house and the courtyard and the night before the wedding was perfect being able to get our family and friends together.

    The food was also incredible, the gourmet bbq was great and all of our guests are still raving about how amazing the nachos were.

    This was the first and only venue we went to see as we...

    So so special

    We knew we’d found somewhere special when we stumbled across tunnels but we didn’t quite realise how special it really was. Our whole wedding experience was quite simply flawless. Jamie and the team were so responsive in the lead up to the big day- allowing us to pop in and see the venue for a second visit after we booked, replying super speedily to the stream of questions we had and on the day- going above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Could not recommend this venue enough - we’re just sad we don’t get to do it again!

    Amazing beach wedding venue

    Tunnels is the most incredible beach venue. The scenery is stunning and the staff were amazing. We stayed in the Bath House and Courtyard, which are both lovely houses and really well kitted out – a great place for family and friends to stay the night before and after the wedding.

    In preparation for our wedding, Jamie was super responsive and helpful with all our queries and booking arrangements. The staff on the day were fully briefed and very organised – things just seemed to happen without being noticeable!

    We had the most amazing day and highly recommend Tunnels to other couples. All our guests are still talking about the venue and yummy food!
