Absolute dream wedding!
The venue is stunning, everything we ever dreamed of. Nestled away in the middle of the north yorkshire moors felt like we had the world to ourselves with our friends and family. The staff cannot do enough, set up my DIY whilst I got ready in the most incredible get ready room. The package included reception drinks, canapés, breakfast and wine & evening buffet. The food is amazing and plenty of it. The children had the best time playing in the ruins throughout the day and this is closed off in the evening to keep them safe. There's plenty of space for then to play and explore. I'm so glad we chose Danby Castle...can we do it all again please!

Absolutely Amazing Wedding Day
This was the first and only venue we went to, we knew right from the start it was meant to be! Danby Castle barn is just a magical, beautiful and well equipped venue for your special day, with the numerous areas/rooms to choose from, the veiws, the character, the ruins and the area that surrounds, you will not be disappointed! The staff are friendly and can't do enough for you, super helpful right down to the little details. We absolutely loved it, the day went perfectly! My only problem was the day went too quickly!! Honestly thank you so so much guys ♡ We had the best day EVER!

The most incredible day 🤍
We got married at Danby Castle just over a week ago and we had such an incredible day. Despite a couple of small hiccups with 2 of the old wedding co-ordinators around communication and what was offered to us, when Leah took over everything ran smoothly. Leah was always on hand to make sure our day ran smoothly. The venue is incredible, we were bless with lovely weather for our games, ice cream van and singer but I could imagine it could be quite difficult if there weather goes the other way. We were also blessed to be able to have our first dance in the ruins which was so magical and special! If you are getting married in the summer and the weather allows, I would 100% recommend this. Danby has the most amazing natural backdrops for photos and really allowed our guests to unwind. The food was incredible, the portion sizes were great and our guests were all very happy!! We also opted for the Fish and Chip van at night and again, it was insane!! Top Notch!! The only negative is not having accommodation on site which was promised to us at the time of booking but we booked Guisborough Hall for our wedding party which was only 20 minutes away and allowed most of the guests to stay together. If you are looking for a stunning venue with incredible views where your guests can unwind then Danby is your venue!! 🤍 Massive thank you to Leah again!

Wouldnt change a thing!
Wouldn’t change a thing! Even the heavy rain didn’t dampen it and a lot of this was down to not only a wonderful photographer but also the team at Danby Castle. Fantastic value for money and our small wedding had everything we could ask for and more.

INCREDIBLE VENUE
We just wanted to start by thanking everyone for such an incredible day. The venue itself is just beautiful. The staff could not have been more accommodating throughout the whole process and had answers to all of our never-ending questions. Eve – our co-ordinator was wonderful and so helpful in the lead up and also on the day. She knows exactly what she is doing and helped us both feel confident that everything was going to run smoothly.

Staff so helpful going above & beyond ( special shoutouts to Ruby &Harry) 3 amazing locations for ceremonies. Gorgeous food, perfect getting ready room for bridal party and men’s room, perfect wedding breakfast room Resident DJ, and what backdrops ! Castle ruins and countryside ( even cows & sheep). No accommodation on site but can highly recommend Coombs Glamping Pods just along the lane.

The best day ever
Wow! I don't know how to put it into words. Danby Castle made it so easy. Before we even visited I knew it was 'the one'. The venue and view speaks for itself, the staff are amazing at what they do and very efficient, nothing is too much trouble, the food was absolutely delicious on the day, and the whole wedding was better than I ever imagined. It really is thanks to the team for just knowing what they're doing! It was smooth, beautiful and we had the most fun day. A special thank you to Ruby
