We got married at Danby Castle on the 13th Sep. We toured loads of venues after getting engaged but absolutely fell in love with Danby.
The staff were amazing from start to finish. It was great to be able to bring our parents to have a Sunday lunch and tour the venue before the big day.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning. We were incredibly lucky and had an outside ceremony. From the entrance to the view, it was perfect. It's truly such a special place! We especially love the photos we were able to have taken in the castle ruins.
Our reception was in the Daleview barn and we loved having the backdrop of the valley behind the top table!
Our wedding coordinator Katherine was amazing! She was so kind and helpful throughout the planning process and managed to sort some last minute requests. During the day, she was un-flappable and a real calming presence no matter what the day threw at us. She kept the entire day running smoothly, dealt with a massive dress and worked so hard to let us have the most amazing day! Special mention to Dan who took over from Katherine for the evening and managed to light many huge sparklers in no time at all!
Our day was completely perfect, thank you! -

The perfect venue
We got married at Danby Castle Barn on 5th August 2026, and from the moment we booked our wedding, we knew we had made the perfect choice. Looking back now, we genuinely couldn’t imagine celebrating our special day anywhere else.
From the very beginning, both of us were given incredible support and guidance. The team were always there to answer questions, offer advice and reassure us whenever we needed it. That level of care continued right through to the big day, and it made such a difference during what can otherwise be a very stressful time.
The venue itself is simply stunning. The location, scenery and setting provide the most beautiful backdrop for a wedding, and every part of the day felt incredibly special. It was everything we had hoped for and more.
The food deserves a huge mention too — it was absolutely amazing! Our guests are still talking about how delicious everything was, and the quality and presentation were fantastic.
Most importantly, the staff were incredible. Everyone we came across was friendly, professional, welcoming and genuinely invested in making our wedding the best day possible.
A very special shoutout has to go to our wedding coordinator, Abby. From the moment we started planning, Abby was absolutely fantastic. She supported both of us throughout the entire journey and helped make everything feel so much easier. On the wedding day itself, knowing Abby was there gave us complete confidence that everything was in safe hands. We honestly cannot thank her enough for everything she did for us.
Danby Castle Barn wasn’t just our wedding venue, it became part of our wedding story. It gave us memories that we will treasure for the rest of our lives, and we will always look back on 05.08.26 with the biggest smiles.
Thank you to the entire team for helping make the wedding of Ben & Hollie everything we dreamed it would be. We would recommend Danby Castle Barn to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue. ❤️
With endless thanks,
Ben & Hollie -

Our wedding day on the 29th July 2026
We got married at Danby Castle on the 29th July 2026 and we couldn’t have chosen a better venue to celebrate our special day! The setting was the most perfect place to tie the knot, and the beautiful buildings and countryside made our day feel like us.
Our wedding coordinator, Katherine, made our day go so smoothly from start to finish. No request or question was too much, and she made the day flow perfectly. She is a credit to the whole Danby team, and as a whole they were so supportive throughout our time with them, right from booking through to our wedding day. The little touches they added on our day, including contributing to our guestbook were such a lovely surprise addition that made us smile even after the day was done.
If we could relive our wedding day again I would choose Danby over and over without a second thought. They have helped us create memories of our special day that will last a lifetime, and for that we cannot thank them enough ❤️ -

The team at Danby know what they're doing. They had great advice for us when planning, but also allowed us the flexibility to do things as we wanted them.
Our coordinator on the day was so calm and helpful.
The outdoor space as well as the barns are so beautiful, we hardly needed to do any decoration.
The food was great and well-reviewed by our guests!
Would highly recommend. -

Katie Sent on 11/06/2026The perfect day
We got married at Danby Castle on the 6/6/26 and had Natasha as our wedding coordinator. She, alongside the rest of the team, were amazing from the point of booking till the end of our night. Every question we had got answered fast by either Natasha or another member of the team. We had some issues with guests dropping out last minute but Natasha was really lovely and supportive during this and helped us swap new people in and move meal selections around. The food at the venue is amazing and all our guests had lots of good things to say about it, as well as how pretty the venue itself was. I couldn’t fault it and we absolutely loved having Natasha with us on our day, she was such a big help and really fun to have with us! -

Wow! We have just had our wedding at Danby Castle Barn and it was fabulous. If you’re looking for a venue which offers true beauty with dedicated staff who cannot do enough for you, this is the place for you!
Natasha was our wedding planner and she was truly fab, I had a disaster when one of my booked professionals did not attend and she was straight on it, even offering to drive to Whitby to buy make up! Instead, by some miracle they found me a professional make up artist who came within 20 minutes and was amazing. For this I will always be truly grateful.
The whole day ran seamlessly, all the staff are professional and everything from the registrars, the waiting staff, chefs and DJ were second to none. The feedback from our guests was all positive, the food is amazing no one will leave hungry! We also had our dog with us and she was even made to feel special and very much part of the day!
Natasha is so professional but also very passionate about making you feel special, it felt like more than a job to her, she even shed a tear when my dad got upset.
We can honestly say it was the best day of our lives, made all the more special by the staff and the venue, it’s a very special place and we will be forever grateful for all the memories it created.
Many thanks
Nicci and Andy
