Dunston Hall Estate

This place is absolutely amazing nothing was to much trouble all the staff were brilliant they were like family. The venue it's self was absolutely amazing so was the food and all the rooms couldn't have asked for anything better than this venue at all.100% advise anyone to use this place as there venue. Made our wedding day so special can't thank the staff enough well done guys.

It was perfect. From the very first viewing over a year ago, to all the details leading up to it and then the day itself Dunston Hall and it's staff were amazing, helpful, worked with us, dealt with any questions, queries and concerned and went out of their way yo make our day memorable.

Dunston Hall is Exquisite. A Rolls-Royce, Creme de la Creme, Attention to Detail Wedding Venue and Accommodation! A 'Must Stay' if you want luxury, exclusivity, beautiful decor, first class customer service and food a plenty that melts in your mouth! The House and Grounds are mesmerising! Every guest who stayed in the rooms, slept 'happy'! They did not want to leave! The Bridal Suite was very elegant. The attentiveness provided by the staff is amazing. Having our wedding at Dunston Hall was a dream come true, which I shall cherish the memories of forever. Anna, the Manager, with the assistance of Jess, Macauley and the Team, were subject focused working on our time, from the conception of us wanting our wedding at Dunston Hall, to the execution of one of the most beautiful days of my life! All our guests were in awe of the Estate and weeks later, we are still receiving comments from guests on attending one of the best weddings in the most beautiful of venues! Dunston Hall just keeps on giving.

Cannot praise the staff here enough, they did everything possible to make our special day perfect, nothing was too much trouble and they were polite and professional throughout. The venue was perfectly maintained and they are constantly looking at ways to improve. The food was amazing and such a good range of choice. Our day could not have gone better and it was all down to the wonderful staff at Dunston Hall. Special mention to Anna, Macauley and Owen.

We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful venue to spend our wedding day at. The staff were so helpful, approachable and professional. Words are not enough to describe our appreciation. Our day could not have been more perfect. Thank you Dunston Hall and all the team.

I’m not quite sure where to start with this review, but it’s an absolute dream wedding venue with the best staff you could imagine Myself and Jemma got married on the 6th of July which was a Saturday, we arrived to Dunston on Friday midday and left on Monday morning. Dunston has 10 bedrooms which sleeps around 25 people, we filled it with close family and friends, if this works for you and your family I would really recommend doing this We’d booked Dunston roughly two years before our wedding date, Anna and Macauley were absolutely brilliant, they are a credit to Dunston. Everything was so easy and they are so knowledgable, we had regular meetings with them to check in and discuss how everything was going on both sides We also had a taster session for the food for our wedding, so you choose three starters, three mains and three deserts that you would like for your wedding, you then go to Dunston to try these, everything is plated as it would be served at your wedding. Owen was brilliant for this taster session, a very polite man with great service skills and the knowledge to go with it. The food is AMAZING, every person from the wedding said it’s the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding. The chef (apologies, can’t remember his name) really is as good as you can get and does an amazing job, the taster session was exactly as the food came out on the wedding, we had 90 guests and to keep quality high for that many people is unbelievable We are local to the area and remember Dunston being up for sale around 2019 and out of interest we looked just to see what the house was like, what the owners of Dunston have done since buying it is unbelievable, the house is literally stunning, every single room in the house is perfect and every bedroom has an en-suite, I dread to think how much has been spent renovating the property On the wedding day, the staff make you feel at ease, everything seems effortless and they have a close bond with suppliers because of how they treat them, you really can tell the integrity that runs throughout Dunston. The venue is perfect, we opted for an outside wedding and luckily the weather held out for us, it’s made for some very special pictures, we had a small stage created with chairs in a semi circle, again if this is possible for you I’d really try to create something like that. The second plan was the ceremony room, which would have also been a very intimate special place to hold a wedding. On Sunday, we invited everyone back for a bbq, the weather was great and we ordered a Morrisons delivery to Dunston and sourced meat from a local supplier and we cooked on the bbq’s supplied by Dunston. This was an amazing day, the weather was great and the grounds are beautiful, it was a really nice relaxed day and great to speak to family and friends slightly more relaxed than the previous day Every single staff member at Dunston is amazing, I can’t remember everyone’s names but honestly they provide the best service I have ever received. I hope the owners see this review and you are lucky to have such great, hard working staff If you’re thinking about getting married here, it will be the best decision you’ve ever made. Thanks again and we will be back for your special food nights and my father in law has already booked for a future birthday party!

Where do we even begin! We cannot recommend Dunston Hall and the staff enough! Our wedding weekend was everything we had dreamed of and more. We stayed at the venue the night before and had an incredible pre-wedding party with Paella cooked and served by the venue, followed by a beautifully displayed continental breakfast on our wedding morning, and a cooked breakfast the morning after. The food throughout the weekend was absolute perfection and we received so many compliments on the quality of the food. Dunston catered for many different allergies and dietary requirements without any issue. The whole venue, including the rooms in house were of an incredible high standard and looked beautiful. Our guests were blown away (as were we!). Anna was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the whole process from our initial enquiry to days after our wedding! We cannot thank Anna enough. Macauley, Owen and the team over the entire weekend were so efficient and attentive, nothing was too much trouble, which made the weekend run so smoothly. We honestly couldn't have asked for anything more and we had the best day of our lives. We wish we could do it all over again!! Thank you so much Dunston Hall!

We had our wedding here on the 29th December 2023 and it was simply perfect. The venue is beautiful and very reasonably priced compared to places that offer a similar experience. The Food is wonderful. Staff are incredible! They really made the whole experience. Oh And the bedding was to die for (it was the talk of breakfast the next morning), never had such a good nice sleep before!

Wow, we really could not have imagined a better place to get married. From our first viewing over 2 years ago, each time that we visited Dunston Hall, we fell more in love with the venue and couldn’t get over how stunning the Hall and its grounds are. From the minute we first arrived through the gates, Dunston Hall was the only place that we both just instantly loved when we were searching for our venue. It is truly a hidden gem and only 5 minutes from where we live, there really is nowhere else like it in the area. As our wedding was the first to be held in The Stables, we didn’t know what the completed space would look, even with under a month to go until our wedding date! However, having seen how beautifully the hall and ceremony room had been renovated, we were confident that The Stables would be finished to a high standard with a beautiful finish. Dunston Hall really did think about every little detail. The gardens are beautiful too! If only we weren't having too much fun that we could've got all the photos we had planned, as the photo spot opportunities are endless! Our guests commented on how amazing the venue was, noting the fact that there were so many areas, all exclusive to the one wedding. We knew we wanted to get married at Dunston Hall from our first visit, but the fact that this is an exclusive venue just added to that. We were able to have our own little wedding bubble for the whole weekend, with no worries of wedding crashers from other events taking place. The food was simply incredible and many of our guests have continued telling us so! Every meal we had from Friday to breakfast on Sunday was delicious. Our stay over the entire weekend was a dream. Each bedroom and ensuite is immaculate and they are all have their own unique design, it’s a shame you can’t sleep in them all at once! The venue really does speak for itself, but the staff are what make it all work. Due to changes in management over the 2 years, we didn’t have the smoothest of wedding planning journeys, but the potential of the venue kept us going. In the end, Claire made sure we got what we were promised. We cannot thank Mark, Macauley, Claire, Anna and the rest of the team enough for making our wedding weekend what it was. They went above and beyond to ensure our weekend was perfect- and it really was. Mark and Macauley, you made the last part of our wedding planning process as exciting as it should be, and kept us up to date with changes, always making sure that we were happy with the plans. Shout out to the lovely Georgie too, who sang during our wedding breakfast (amazing voice) and couldn’t do enough for us! Come Sunday afternoon when we were leaving the estate, we couldn't believe that it was all over and it was just as hard saying goodbye to the team as it was the venue. They really are an absolute dream team! I could go on about how wonderful this place is, but it’s starting to make me feel sad that we won’t be getting married here again. The memories of the best wedding weekend will have to do! Thank you so much Dunston Hall for making our dream wedding become our reality!

We had our silver wedding anniversary here and it was magical. The Hall is amazing and the staff couldnt be more helpful. The best venue in Chesterfield by far
