Sophie and William

We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our most special day!! Our wedding went smoothly from start to finish. Cheryl is so hard working, accommodating, friendly and understanding of wedding dreams! It was like holding a huge party at a friend's house. She was so professional but personalised every experience and meeting we had. Cheryl and Bill have great contacts to outside suppliers that work alongside them. Communication was fab all the way through. Cheryl and Bill helped make our day even more magical! The Dragons Gate was our dream wedding venue and reached all of our expectations and more.

Wedding - July 20th 2024

We had an absolutely fantastic day at Dragons Gate. This venue is a gem nestled away in the Herefordshire countryside that more people need to know about.
The views are stunning, the barn is so cute and there is options for extending things onto grass with marquees if you so wish.
Cheryl and Bill were fantastic in their support and always easy to get hold of if we had any questions.
I would highly recommend this venue to anybody looking to put their own wedding together. You will not regret going there in the slightest!

Thank you for the most amazing day

The Dragon's Gate was the perfect venue for our wedding. If you want jaw-dropping scenery at every turn, this is your place. Cheryl and Bill were fantastic in making our wedding day happen, even with a 1 year delay and weeks of rain until the day before the wedding! Would recommend to any couples looking for an outstanding Herefordshire venue.
