We had a very specific brief for our wedding: we wanted to get married in the woods, have the venue for multiple days, and have at least 15 bedrooms so all our friends and family could stay on site. A hard brief - one Plas Dinam effortlessly met. I’m a planner, which means a lot of questions, a lot of logistics, and a lot of “just checking…” moments. Lou was phenomenal. She took everything in her stride, answered every question with calm confidence, and helped make sure the day ran exactly how we envisioned. We were given complete freedom to make the place feel like our own. No one looking over our shoulder, no sense of being monitored - it genuinely felt like having our own home for the 3 days and getting ready there surrounded by everyone we love. No corkage was a huge bonus for us and a brilliant way to save budget, and choosing a mid‑week wedding helped even more. We also received our full damage deposit back promptly, which reflects how fair, transparent and trustworthy the team are throughout the entire process. We had a babysitter in the main house so we could enjoy a child‑free day while parents could still pop in and check on their little ones. Every detail worked. The memories we made around the wedding were just as special as the day itself. We dressed the tables ourselves alongside all our friends the day before the wedding. We swam in the river multiple times. The boys had a tennis tournament on the morning of the wedding. Our friends in the glamping tents all got ready together in the Stables loft. The vibe we were able to create meant people still talk about how our wedding merged every friendship group together - everyone felt close and got to spend quality time together. Some of our favourite moments from the wedding are our parents sat on the lawn with our friends having breakfast the morning of the wedding, or the day-after debrief in the kitchen with those who were first up. Everything was perfec

From the moment we first viewed Plas Dinam, we completely fell in love with it. We had always wanted our wedding to be a chance to showcase Wales to our friends and family travelling from near and far, to have as many of the people we love as possible staying together for the whole weekend, and, above everything else, to be able to make the celebration completely our own. Plas Dinam gave us exactly that. Eldrydd, Tyson and Lou were absolutely incredible throughout. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and they were so helpful, accommodating and genuinely invested in helping us bring all of our ideas to life. They gave us the freedom to create the wedding weekend we had imagined, while always being there when we needed help or advice. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better team. The house itself is glorious. Every bedroom has its own character and is beautifully spacious, and over the weekend the kitchen somehow became the real heart of the house — particularly with all of the children running around! The grounds are stunning and gave us the most beautiful backdrop for the weekend, while the glamping was fantastic and such a hit with our guests. Being able to have so many of our favourite people all together on site made the whole experience feel incredibly special. We came away feeling like we hadn’t just had a wedding day, but had created an entire weekend full of memories with the people we love most. It was everything we had hoped it would be and more. Plas Dinam will always have such a special place in our hearts, a

You need to view Plas Dinam to appreciate its beauty first hand. It catered to everything we wanted for a wedding, the space, rooms, scenery, staff, wedding coordinator, trusted suppliers and beauty. Eldrydd and Phillipa were so helpful throughout, from start to finish. They really helped take the load off and the day was so special and amazing. We wish we could do it all over again.

We are sure everyone thinks their wedding venue is special, but Plas Dinam really is SPECIAL. As soon as we went for a viewing everything about it just felt right - it is grand and stunning, yet not stuffy or pretentious, and the owners + staff instantly make you feel at home. Using it for the whole weekend was such a treat and all of our guests were full of praise for the venue, grounds and comfort of the rooms. The day itself couldn't have gone better and the spaces flexibility to accommodate any setup based on the weather meant the British climate had no impact on our day whatsoev

I wish I could put into (better!) words how utterly amazing Plas Dinam is. Anyone can get married at a stunning venue with amazing views, but not everyone can say they were made to feel so at home with the best team who made the day what is was. The venue team are with you every step of the way to ensure your day goes as planned. You're made to feel like it's a second home and that you're part of the fami

We hosted our wedding at Plas Dinam in May 2025, with 40+ guests staying with us in the house and grounds, and 120+ overall. The weekend far exceeded our expectations. Plas Dinam itself is very special - it feels luxurious whilst remaining welcoming and homely. We had a huge amount of flexibility with how we wanted the weekend to work and the Plas Dinam team were exceptionally helpful throughout at making it happen. Katie, in particular, was relaxed and confident throughout and it allowed us to just enjoy the weekend. For us, the real value in Plas Dinam was the ability to have our friends and family together for as much time as possible. Being able to make use of the house and grounds for the entire weekend (pizza oven on friday, wedding on saturday, long walk, swim and quiz night on sunday) made us feel like we'd made the most of it. We're already trying to find a

Plas Dinam is an incredibly special place. It was the first and only venue we viewed for our wedding, because from the moment we arrived, we knew it was the one. We had a winter wedding in the house, and despite the grandeur of the building, it felt wonderfully cosy, warm and inviting. It truly became our home for the entire weekend and so many of our guests commented on that same feeling. The DIY nature of the venue was perfect for us, allowing us to create a wedding that felt completely authentic and personal. The wonderful ladies at Plas Dinam were endlessly supportive, always on hand to answer questions and put any planning worries at ease. Their kindness and reassurance made the whol

We recently had our wedding weekend celebration at Plas Dinam Country House and it was everything we had imagined it would be and more! The house and the grounds are all so beautiful. The house is the perfect space to entertain and relax with guests (we had 35 staying in the hisuebwirh us and a further 10 in the loft and the lodge for 2 nights and there was ample space). The space felt like a home away from home, so calm and relaxing with so many different rooms to chose from. All of our guests were blown away by the house and its grounds. Lots of our guests (those brave enough in October!) also got to enjoy the wild swimming lake which was an added bonus. The rooms are very generous in size, with comfortable beds and amazing views. Plas Dinam is the perfect venue to host a wedding as it has so many different spaces to hold your ceremony and drinks reception. As we were getting married in October, we chose the Great Hall for our ceremony location and it was perfect and felt so intimate even with 96 people in the room! We then had our wedding reception down in The Stables which was stunning. You are free to style and decorate the room as you wish which makes each wedding feel so unique. We also loved that the dance floor was off to the side of the main stables and ample space for a photobooth without having to move any of the tables. We really cannot recommend Plas Dinam enough and would like to say a h

TLDR: when we first saw Plas Dinam, we read a review that said something like “if you’re reading this: stop looking at other venues and just book Plas Dinam, you won’t find better!”. We dismissed this advice until it became obvious that it was - quite simply – the truth. Plas Dinam was, by chance, the very first venue we came across when researching our wedding. We did not realise quite how special it was until it slowly dawned on us as we catalogued another hundred or so venues, none of which came anywhere close! We were fortunate to find a weekend gap in their almost fully booked calendar – in August 2025 – that all of our close family and friends could make. Although this gave us only three months to plan and prepare, from our first conversation with Katie, Plas Dinam’s unflappable wedding coordinator, we were in excellent hands. All of the people we worked with at Plas Dinam and beyond – from the dedicated suppliers to the landlady of the local pub (The Lion Inn) – were really and truly lovely: patient, helpful, generous and fun. The planning process could have been daunting and stressful – there’s a huge amount to think about and organise for a multiday wedding – but it was a genuine pleasure. The actual wedding was like a dream (a really good one!). The house and grounds are as magnificent as they look in the photos, but also cosy and homely - like a huge sleepover with all your best friends. The house team quietly kept the wedding running smoothly, around which we – and our guests – had so much freedom to do the things that felt meaningful and fun for us. People cautioned us, from their own experience, that our wedding would pass in a flash, but to us it felt like time had been paused. From our over-excited arrival on the Friday, to our bleary-eyed departure on the Monday, lifetimes had passed in which all of the people we know and love had somehow become one big group of friends. I think that is the magic of Plas Dinam. If you have the chance to experience it, do so! We would also wholeheartedly recommend any and all of our wonderful suppliers: Cutlery and furniture: Tipples Decorations: Megan & Claude Sound & lighting: Jake Evans Photography: Laura Power Wedding caterers: Wild Garlic Ceilidh and wedding band: Gypsy Roqu

Plas Dinam was an incredible venue for our summer wedding in August. We had high expectations leading into the weekend and it exceeded anything we ever imagined. I think we used every inch of the grounds across the 3 days we were on site with a welcome BBQ under the stretch tent, wedding ceremony in the woodlands, speeches under the trees, reception in the stables, and farewell lunch on the side lawns. Our guests absolutely loved staying on site, and the house, glamping tents and everything the grounds had to offer were impeccable. Eldrydd, Tyson, Katie and all the Plas Dinam staff really made the day feel magical and run smoothly. If you're looking for a beautiful yet relaxed environment for a wedding or family weekend away, we could not recommend Plas Dinam enough! There is so much the property and grounds offer to truly make the weekend your own, which we love. Thank you so much! P.S. Make your own pizzas using the pizza oven and the fire pit on the night of the wedding were real big hits! Highly recommend addin

Let’s start with: WOW! From our first viewing, to our extended wedding weekend, Plas felt like a second home. The house itself is stunning, with SO much space for guests to relax, explore and have fun. We arrived on Thursday and hosted some intimate drinks in the lounge. On Friday our guests enjoyed swimming in the lake, followed by a yoga class, and then a pizza party in the evening - all unforgettable memories! Our wedding day on the Saturday was absolutely magical and couldn’t have been done without the help of the brilliant Lou! Our ceremony had to be moved last minute due to some light rain, but it was no problem at all for the team, and in the end we loved that we were able to use the stretch tent, which felt lovely and intimate even with our 150 guests! In the afternoon and evening we had the most amazing time at the stables, with a delicious wedding breakfast by Wild Garlic, and a band and DJ in the evening. We hosted a second event on the Sunday and got to enjoy more of the grounds with our guests, take in the amaxing views and make use of the BBQ. We even had an ice cream cart up at the house for everyone to enjoy! We can’t recommend Plas enough, and all

We recently had our wedding weekend celebration at Plas Dinam Country House, from Friday 18 - Monday 21 July and it completely exceeded our expectations. There really are no words to describe how special this place is. The house is beautiful, extremely spacious (we had 33 guests staying for 3 nights and there was plenty of space) and thoughtfully designed. The space feels calming and peaceful, and not dated or pretentious. All of our guests were blown away by the house and it's grounds. The views, gardens and connection to nature is wonderful and it's also sustainably managed, which was also important to us. We also got to enjoy the wild swimming lake which was an added bonus. The rooms are very generous in size, with comfortable beds, amazing views, robes and towels etc and the bathrooms all had great facilities. For weddings Plas Dinam is perfect as it has lots of different spaces for ceremonies, as well as drinks receptions. We were lucky to have good weather and held our ceremony in the woodland which was magical. However we really liked the Great Hall, should we have needed an indoor option. Then having the back lawn with it's views for drinks was another surprise for our guests. We held our wedding meal and party in the Stables which had a really unique, spacious and charming atmosphere - the glass roof with fairy lights looks incredible once the sun goes down! Also having the dancefloor as part of the building was perfect as it meant we didn't have to move our guests out to clear any tables/chairs. The team at Plas Dinam are lovely and were a big draw when considering which wedding venue to book. The fact that the house is family owned and has been kept for generations, makes this venue feel genuine and not just another wedding factory. Louise our wedding coordinator was fantastic, relaxed and friendly but completely on top of everything and spent lots of time replying to our emails, whatsapp messages and calls to talk through and consider every detail. We were also extremely impressed by the suppliers who were recommended by Plas Dinam. Luna Bloom, a recommended florist and Tallulah & Co for catering were both exceptional and we got countless comments from guests about how beautiful the flowers were and how good the food was! Also having no corkage and party end time of 12:30AM was a real plus compared to other venues we looked at. Having Plas Dinam over the full weekend meant we also got to host a relaxed BBQ for house guests on Friday. It was wonderful to have full access to the house, and get to treat it like your own holiday home - as our guests were able to meet and relax before the big day. Also on Sunday we hired a local caterer to provide lunch for our wedding guests, under the large stretch tent whi

We were always warned that wedding days go by really quickly and you don't get the chance to catch up with everyone properly. With plas dinam, we rented the place for 3 nights and filled it with all our family and close friends. The days leading up to wedding consisted of slow walks, board games, lake swimming and everyone chatting around the kitchen with cups of tea. It was almost as magical as the day itself, which went seamlessly with the help of lou. She was so calm and experienced- we really felt in good hands. Overall, I think it's the best wedding venue I've ever been to (although there may be some bias..)

I really struggle to explain just how special this place is - Plas Dinam has everything you could want if you are looking for a rural, flexible, welcoming and beautiful venue. Book in for as many nights as you can and plan pre BBQs or day two activities alongside your wedding day here - you will not regret it. The team are unbelievably quick to respond and nothing is too much trouble. Jennie co-ordinated our wedding weekend and she was on hand whenever we needed her. The location is absolutely stunning and although we didn't need them in the end, the wet weather options for your ceremony are perfect too. The house itself is luxurious and grand whilst also being homely - there is a real opportunity to make this venue your home for the weekend and plan whatever kind of celebrations you wish to have. The grounds are stunning for photographs, the stables are such a unique place to enjoy your wedding breakfast and there is even a wild swimming spot to blow away the cobwebs! The kitchen became a real hub in the mornings for our group to just be together, making brekkie and having a coffee - you can have all age groups in together and feel like you you get quality time with your guests. I cannot stress enough how stunningly beautiful the whole place is and also how wonderful the team is - just book it - it is perfect x

Plas Dinam is so much more than a wedding venue—it almost feels like an injustice to call it that. It’s a place we’ll treasure forever. Choosing Plas Dinam for your wedding means choosing a team that genuinely takes the time to get to know you. In return, you feel like part of the place, even part of the family (cringe to say—but honestly, it’s true!). It’s an honour to feel a connection to such a breathtakingly beautiful space, in every sense. I had the absolute pleasure of getting to know Lou and Katie over our two years of planning. Both are incredibly warm, organised, and generous with their time—nothing ever felt like too much to ask. They were always there when we needed them, but also gave us the space and trust to plan the day our own way. There were no rigid rules—just support—allowing us to create a celebration that felt truly ‘us.’ I’m so grateful for that freedom and care. Plas Dinam strikes the perfect balance: they offer a brilliant list of trusted, lovely suppliers, but also give you the flexibility to bring in your own ideas and personal touches. We were lucky with the weather and had our ceremony outdoors, which was magical—but even if it hadn’t worked out that way, there was a solid, clear plan in place, which gave us total peace of mind. Being able to stay the night before and set up the day ahead was such a gift. It meant we could relax and fully soak up the wedding day itself, knowing everything was taken care of. Our guests were absolutely blown away by the venue, and I honestly can’t than
