The most romantic country wedding venue. Our weddings offer the exclusive hire of the entire estate. You will have exclusive hire from 12:00 p.m. the day before the wedding, giving you a whole day to prepare the venue allowing you to relax that night knowing the venue is exactly as you had dreamt. Our guests depart the morning after the wedding at 12 p.m. White Dove Barns can cater for both large and small weddings for a range of budgets. Our newly converted Grade II listed thatched barn can hold 128 guests for both the ceremony and wedding breakfast, but can equally suit smaller, more intimate receptions of 60 guests.

Best day ever!
We had the best day of our lives getting married at this venue in March 2020. The setting, food, staff and coordination on the day were 100% perfect. We could not recommend this place to get married enough. Thank you all for everything.

Fantastic day
We had a fantastic day at White Dove Barns, the buildings flowed perfectly for each section of the day. The food really was excellent, all perfectly cooked, exactly as the trial tasting and we received so many compliments from guests. We were spolit for choice for photo opportunities throughout the gorgeous grounds. For us having ample accommodation on site was so important too, meaning we could extend the festivities. The team were friendly, flexible and offered advice where needed. Thank you

An amazing day
The staff at White Dove were professional, helpful and friendly. They made us feel welcome and nothing was a problem. The day ran so smoothly, they catered for every need and made both of us feel at ease. They ensured our day went as planned and everyone had a fantastic time. Spencer and Allison were always on hand throughout the day. The venue and accommodation were excellent and it was a perfect setting for the weekend. We had an amazing day. Thank you .

Helpful, accommodating and understanding. Ace!
We had a wonderful wedding, full credit to the team at White Dove barns. When we initially booked we went through family trauma and they were very understanding, helpful, and accommodating. On the day and in the run up they were very organised, helpful and genuinely cared about us having a perfect day. The food and presentation of the venue was perfect. We didn’t realise that the team had changed to Spencer and Alison until near the day and we were unsure of how that would be but they were ace!

A truly wonderful venue!
We had a wonderful weekend at white dove barns, we loved staying there for two nights. We have had comments from our guests saying it was the loveliest venue they have been too and the best wedding they have been to! We had the event quite laid back as this suited us but you really can make it whatever you want it to be - lots of flexibility with decorations. Staff were great, and made us feel confident everything was in hand. A truly wonderful venue!
