Plas Dinam Country House

We couldn’t have dreamt of a better day. The second we saw Plas Dinam, we knew it was the venue for us and didn’t have a single doubt in our minds that we, and all our guests, would have the most memorable day. We had our hearts set on an outdoorsy wedding, but it was great to know that there were many options for plan B if it rained. It didn’t! The setting was incredible, having the woodlands for our ceremony was everything we could have hoped for, and the stables were unique and brought the outside in. Big shout out to Lou from Plas Dinam, who helped us on the day and in the months before, making sure everything ran smoothly.

Married July 2024

Plas Dinam exceeded our expectations by a long way. We knew that we’d chosen a great venue and would have the best weekend, but we weren’t prepared for how special Plas Dinam is and how much we would fall in love with this place. The setting is beautiful with the most incredible views, the house is stunning, all of the bedrooms feel like a luxury country hotel, and the staff are all amazing. Eldrydd, Tyson, Lou and the rest of the team were so helpful and generous, whilst also being very laid back and relaxed. They really put us at ease throughout the entire planning process and on the big day itself. They over-delivered on all of our excessive requests, and everything we wanted was possible. From the moment we arrived, we really felt at home there for the weekend. We were fortunate enough to have nice weather, so we really got to utilise every part of the venue, with a pre-wedding pizza party on the front lawn the day before, our ceremony out the back with the rolling hills behind us and the meal and dancing in the glass stables. The stables were stunning and it worked so well having the dance floor open to the dining area, the dance floor was packed the whole evening.

We had Wild Garlic for our caterers who call Plas Dinam their second home, they too over delivered and were great. We would highly recommend Plas Dinam to anyone looking for an incredible countryside venue with lots of accommodation on site, exclusive use and a really relaxed atmosphere. We wish we would go back and re-live it all over again!

We had the most fantastic wedding in July 2022 thanks to the amazing team and surroundings at Plas Dinam.

We booked our wedding during the height of Covid so we initially had a tour via Zoom with Lou and we instantly loved the venue. We both straight away felt the relaxed nature of Plas Dinam suited us and how we pictured our wedding. When we were able to visit in person a few months later we were surprised by how much it surpassed our expectations further. We then started booking our suppliers which was made easier by the Trusted Suppliers list received. We were able to choose vendors that knew the venue well but were also able to accommodate our thoughts and vision.

Lou and Eldrydd were always on hand for any questions we had throughout the whole process and all of our questions and requests were responded to quickly and always provided us with the reassurance and guidance we needed.

Having booked a relatively small mid-week wedding (2 nights) for our 40 guests the Plas Dinam team offered us as much flexibility as possible so we could set up and enjoy the venue both before and after our big day. We decided to have a BBQ the night before and had meat delivered from a local butcher. Everyone was able to mingle out on the lawn and enjoy the view. We hired both The Lodge and The Loft as well as the main house as it was important to us to have all our guests stay on-site with us which was a huge selling point of the venue.

On the wedding day Louise ensured that we had everything we needed and was a reassuring presence throughout. We held our ceremony under the archway at the front of the house and our reception on the lawn. The strong relationship between Wild Garlic and Plas Dinam meant that our canapé service was streamlined (and delicious!).

The staff provided by Plas Dinam both for the bar and the breakfast the morning after the wedding were so friendly and accomodating. We could not have asked for more and wish we could do it all again. We will definitely be coming back back to visit again in the future!

The best of the best from start to finish. We had our wedding at Plas Dinam and it was fantastic from start to finish. Eldrydd, Tyson, Louise and team are fantastic. They were amazing to deal with. Plas Dinam is beautiful surrounded by rolling Welsh hills. It’s an idyllic setting. Plas Dinam has so much history and beautiful items in the house. Incredibly, Eldrydd and Tyson are the most accommodating, approachable, flexible and relaxed owners we have ever worked with! Nothing was ever too much trouble. What we loved about Plas Dinam was it was not ostentatious. For example we used the stables for our wedding breakfast. However, during the winter it is used as a stable for the horses. It’s not called the “stables” to stick to a theme or make it sound more authentic. I cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you so much for making our wedding day the best day of our lives. Lastly and most importantly, there are no hidden charges. They are fully transparent. What a place. what a team.

Married September 2022

A huge thank you to everyone at Plas Dinam for the most perfect wedding weekend! We couldn’t have asked for more, and family and friends were blown away by your hospitality – no ask was too small and it was like staying at our second home! We can’t stop smiling 6 weeks on!

Louise’s support in coordinating the weekend was amazing – helpful, friendly and always on hand to answer questions (and we had many questions!) Louise provided reassurance and solutions to all our queries, even taking treasured photos of our outside ceremony from the top of the house, capturing the rolling landscape.

The beautiful house, grounds, backdrop of the Welsh countryside and the glass roof stables made Plas Dinam the perfect setting for our wedding weekend. The pizza oven too was a huge hit with guests making the Friday evening the relaxed family event we imagined. Thank you so much to the Plas Dinam team for making memories we will never forget! Can we please do it all over again?!

Married May 2024

When we first visited Plas Dinam we instantly knew this was where we would get married. We had already fallen for the glass roofed stables from the pictures we had seen online but the house and gardens cemented that this was the place for us. Planning the wedding was a daunting task but with Plas Dinam’s recommended suppliers we were able to combine our own suppliers to create a day that was 100% ours. This wouldn’t have been possible without the very wonderful Louise, their wedding coordinator, who was on call to answer any questions no matter how silly throughout!

When booking your wedding at Plas Dinam, you get the whole place for two nights. This meant that we were able to make full use of the old bread oven which has now been converted to a wood fired pizza oven. With the help of Tyson and recommended supplier, David Rowles, friends and family chipped in to create their own pizzas. What was lovely about the first night was that close family and friends who were staying either in the house or glamping in the bell tents were able to settle in and have a lovely relaxing evening before the big day. It felt like we were on holiday and all of our favourite people were there.

The morning of the wedding was beautifully sunny which meant our guests could explore the area, lots went on walks, others played tennis on Plas Dinam’s tennis courts. Getting ready was a relaxed and wonderful experience; there was no need to worry about getting to a venue on time because we were already there! It was amazing looking out of the window and seeing the chairs had been set up on the lawn ready for the ceremony and later our guests as they arrived.

After a reception on the lawn we had our wedding breakfast at the stunning glass roofed stables. Our caterers were exceptional and the whole evening flowed seamlessly. We used one of the small stables to create a ball pit for the kids which went down a treat. As the evening got a bit chillier, suddenly out of nowhere a fully lit fire pit arrived on a fork lift! It truly was the most magical day and so many people told us it was the best wedding they had ever been to.

What a delight to find the perfect wedding venue with a positive history that contributed to the cultural heritage of Wales.

If you are looking for a magical wedding venue with amazing scenery, beautifully kept grounds, accommodation for all of your friends and family, the perfect party space and the most helpful team then please look no further – Plas Dinam literally has it ALL!

When we got engaged we were looking for a venue with relaxed vibes that we could put our own stamp on and came across a picture of the incredible glass-roofed stables at Plas Dinam which immediately caught our eye. Following a little further investigation we discovered that there was so much more on offer – an incredible 19th century house, glamping for your guests, the option to have the entire place to yourselves for as many nights as you like, wildflower meadow, lakes, tennis courts… We could go on and on.

As soon as we spoke with Eldrydd we knew it was the venue for us as she was immediately so open and accommodating when we launched into our ideas of celebrating across four days with additional events around our main wedding day. Nothing was too difficult.

When the weekend finally arrived (after a covid-related year-change) it was everything we had dreamed of and more. Eldrydd, Tyson, Katie and Louise were so incredibly helpful across our time there – an absolute dream team and always on hand if we needed anything. Not to mention the amazing bar staff (shout out to Shona), groundsmen and all of the team who made the house look so pristine before and after our time there.

So many of our guests said it was one of the most spectacular venues they had been to and I have to say dancing on the lawn to a silent disco at sunset with the rolling hills as a backdrop will forever be a hard moment to top!!

We are SO glad we booked Plas Dinam as our wedding venue and look forward to revisiting for a reunion in the years to come!

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Plas Dinam to other couples looking for a beautiful venue that they can make their own for a whole weekend, not just their one special wedding day. Everything was even better than we’d hoped for over the weekend we got married, and many of our guests commented that they would be recommending the venue to others in the future.

We hired the house for a 4 day weekend, meaning we could host a karaoke night in the Drawing Room on the Thursday we arrived, with Tyson (one of the owners) helping us to set up and use the original bread oven for the house to make pizzas that night for around 30 of our guests that were staying. On the Friday we did our own set up of the stables for our reception the next day, and many of our guests visited local towns and went on countryside walks/swimming in the river during the day as we has spectacular weather. Our wedding was on Saturday and it all went so smoothly – Louise was there all day handling things in the background so that we didn’t even notice and could really enjoy getting ready without worrying about what needed to be done. We knew we were in safe hands. We had our ceremony on the back lawn overlooking the stunning hills, following by a drinks reception in that area, before moving down to the stables for speeches, food and dancing. We had 96 at our wedding and the stables was the perfect space for us – it felt busy without having our guests crammed in and we were able to have the tables in a banquet style arrangement to encourage different groups to interact. The dancefloor was a great size for all our guests plus a live band.

One of the magical things about Plas Dinam was being able to have so many of our guests stay on site and to have people come back on the Sunday as well. It meant we really got to spend time with everyone we invited. We filled the house with our closest family and bridal party, and had other close friends staying in the tents on site too. This meant we could have more time with everyone, as it really does go in a flash! Every room in the house is beautiful and there are plenty of bathrooms for everyone to share, plus a games room, ping pong table, billiards room, all of which we used at some point or other during the weekend. We wanted our wedding to feel like a proper holiday for our guests (with a wedding thrown in the middle) and were so pleased that many people commented what an amazing break it was. In fact, some of our guests are even now looking to host events of their own at Plas Dinam.

We literally can’t think of anything we’d change about the venue, the team, or our special weekend.

We were very lucky to have our wedding at Plas Dinam in Spring 2024 and have our wedding party stay there for the weekend. We couldn’t have wished for a more beautiful (yet relaxed) venue. We were originally drawn to the area because of the incredible views of the Welsh hills, but the home itself was so full of beautiful character details and fun features, such as the billiards room, which we loved. There was plenty of room to accommodate our weekend and day guests, with lovely characterful bedrooms across two levels and spacious bathrooms, a well-equipped family kitchen, and two large reception rooms with stunning views. We chose to have an outdoor ceremony in April and had zero regrets – Plas Dinam and its grounds provided an incredible backdrop, and it was great to have so many options (thanks to Eldrydd, Tyson, Lou, and their team for their flexibility and support!). The glass-roofed Stables was a special place to host our wedding breakfast and live music, and we opted to have a fire pit outside, which created a cosy evening atmosphere.

What a place! Needless to say, we (and many of our guests!) would love to come back in future!

Married April 2024

We knew there was no other place to hold our wedding as soon as we saw Plas Dinam. Both bride and groom were made to feel equally as important when we came to see the venue which was really important for us – it was the only venue we saw that acted in this way.

The venue and environment is calm, inviting and warm. It feels like a place you can live in, which is exactly what we did for 4 days. Nothing was a problem, everything had a solution and any suggestion or query was met with simple, clear and concise advice. The home itself is incredibly well equipped for weddings and for a general stay. There are plenty of rooms with the most comfortable beds we have stayed in, away from our own. And with the owners just down the road, they were on hand should anything need fixing, if we had any questions or even for some local tips on where to go and what to do. The size of the place and its grounds mean there are plenty of options for seamlessly dealing with bad weather, or for hosting any kind of wedding you may want – regal, natural, bright, colourful, outdoors, indoors, rustic, etc.

There is not a single part of Plas Dinam which doesn’t make you feel equally awestruck but comfortable. Sitting in the rear garden, taking in the view and listening to the world was almost as memorable as the wedding itself.

Worth every moment. Unforgettable.

Married July 2024

This really is the ideal wedding venue. We rented the whole house from Wednesday to Sunday, which was the perfect way to extend the celebrations. Our guests filled every bedroom and raved about their stay. Each room has its own look and feel, and the views of the grounds are breathtaking. We also rented out the lodge and glamping tents, which were amazing and meant that we could have lots of our family and friends on site with us, too. The entire team at Plas Dinam were incredibly helpful from start to finish and made the entire planning process stress-free. The house is filled with everything you could possibly need for your stay – including a pizza oven! The stables, where we had our reception, is a blank canvas, so you can be as creative with the space as you like, which we loved. The location is stunning, with beautiful walks nearby. We can’t recommend it enough!

My partner and I were looking for a venue that we could make our own (no packages, strict guidelines or standard decor) and came across Plas Dinam shortly after getting engaged. The house/venue is even more beautiful in person, and I lost count of how many guests fell in love with the place, I can highly recommend it for a wedding or even just a group getaway. We also loved that the house had family history and was more relaxed than some other places we visited, which comes through when meeting Eldrydd and Tyson.

Eldrydd and the team were accommodating and patient with us as we had to reschedule our wedding due to COVID, despite some hesitation having a weekday wedding it was more than we could have ever imagined! All our vendors did the most amazing job and only enhanced the already beautiful space.

I have to give a special shout out to Katie, our coordinator who went above and beyond the usual venue coordinator duties not only on the day but in the weeks and months leading up to it. She was a calm and organised voice on the day, helping make decisions I didn’t have the headspace or time to think about.

We spent three full days at Plas Dinam exploring the grounds and making use of the facilities – I highly recommend using the pizza oven, it was great fun for our us and our guests!

Wow! The beautiful house and grounds of Plas Dinam were the perfect setting for our wedding.

We wanted a venue where our family and friends could have a staycation in a remarkable location and witness our wedding in between – well, Plas Dinam was just that! With the added bonus of choice for your ceremony and reception, our set-up wasn’t restricted by the weather. Incredibly, we had idyllic weather during our three-day takeover of PD – making use of the garden games on the front lawns, a ceremony on the back lawn under the blazing sun, cooling off with canapes under the stretch tent and feasted the evening away in the Stables.

The house felt very homely and had plenty of space for everyone to relax and socialise, whilst the Stables are so rustic and unique. It was great to have two separate spaces, so the older family could retire to the house whenever they wanted.

We only booked our date seven months prior, and the PD Team could not have been more flexible and accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble, and they were always on hand.
On the day our wedding co-ordinator Katie was calm and considerate, allowing us both to relax.

These guys know it all – I don’t think you can get any better than Plas Dinam!

Married July 2024

An amazing venue with staff that easily matched.

We planned our wedding from New Zealand for 09/21; however due to COVID things got delayed. Eldrydd kindly showed us round the venue via Zoom and we were able to change our dates for the following year without any issue. The help from Lou leading up to the big day as well as on the day itself was more than we could have hoped for and allowed us to enjoy the day without having to worry about the details.  She also helped us think and organize things we hadn’t originally thought of, the best wedding coordinator we could have asked for.

In terms of the venue itself, there were so many options for the ceremony, and we originally planned to have our wedding on the picturesque back lawn however our plans were thwarted by the rain! Thankfully during the summertime, they have a large stretch tent permanently up, so we were able to have the outdoor wedding we always wanted and because of the amazing house, drinks and canapés were seamlessly moved inside by the staff then outside when the weather finally cleared up.  The stables were in themselves spectacular but also very easy to decorate and put our own personal touches to make it match our wedding themes.

Choosing to spend extra days in the house itself was the best decision we made, all the rooms were beautifully furnished and clean and even came with bathrobes! We only wish we would have been able to stay longer to fully enjoy it all. Accommodation for guests was also readily available via the glamping tents, we only wish more had used them.

Everyone who came to the wedding was amazed by the venue, it truly is a magical place and could not recommend Plas Dinam and the team more. 

Plas Dinam Country House is the ultimate fairy-tale wedding venue. Two weeks on from our wedding, I am still pinching myself because it feels unreal to have had our wedding at such a sensational location. The house combines a unique feeling of majesty, homeliness and exclusivity all at once; your imagination really is the limit for how to style your weekend and wedding. I personally think that the most unique selling point for this venue is that your wedding is wrapped up in an intimate weekend away with friends and family (there are a number of accommodation options on site). Not only did this give our nearest and dearest an opportunity to meet one another before the big day, but it also gave us the chance to settle in and fully relax before we walked down the aisle! We used the days prior to the wedding to set up the stables, have a Team Bride versus Team Groom rounders match and host a pizza party using the house pizza oven!
Plas Dinam’s owners and wedding coordinators are fabulous and were on hand throughout the planning process and over the wedding weekend itself to advise, support and facilitate key events. Katie, Eldrydd and Tyson are all phenomenal at what they do and have created an idyllic set-up at Plas Dinam. Our wedding weekend will live with us and our friends and family forever. Thank you Plas Dinam!

Married June 2024

We had the most amazing time at Plas Dinam for our wedding! What an absolutely gorgeous place. The house is perfect and we loved exploring the grounds. The stables is such a special venue for a wedding reception – we could not have asked for a more beautiful venue! And the views for the ceremony were just perfect!

Lou and the team are so welcoming and friendly! They made the whole process so easy and stress free both before our wedding and during the weekend. Having 3 days there was perfect but we wished we’d stayed longer because it was so so nice! We didn’t want to leave!

We got married at Plas Dinam this September and just wow, it was everything we could have dreamed of and more. It was the perfect venue and without a doubt the best weekend of our lives.

All of our guests were blown away by the house, the beautiful gardens and the surrounding scenery. Being able to have so many of our guests stay with us on site was so special and meant we were really able to cherish every second of the weekend.

The Plas Dinam owners and staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the whole process. Lou was particularly brilliant on the wedding day, making sure everything ran smoothly so all we had to focus on was enjoying ourselves.

We absolutely loved the beautiful wedding barn and being able to add so many of our own personal touches. The atmosphere in the evening really was magical.

We could not recommend this venue more highly, we have certainly made memories to last a lifetime. Thank you Plas Dinam!

Married September 2022

Plas Dinam was the perfect venue for our wedding. The location is beautiful and the stables allow you to be as creative as you want. Eldrydd, Tyson, Katie and the rest of the team were amazing at helping with everything from start to finish. The are supportive and always on hand if you have any questions. The weather didn’t look great in the morning and the Plas Dinam team were so accommodating In letting us have multiple options depending on what the weather did, eventually the sun came out at the perfect moment and we had our ceremony on the back lawn overlooking the beautiful views. Guests have not stopped telling us what a brilliant day they had. We stayed over the weekend which made the recovery slightly easier not having to rush off! The whole weekend was relaxed everything we were hoping for. Could not recommend Plas Dinam enough!

Janna and I booked out Plas Dinam for the bank holiday weekend in August and we couldn’t be happier with how our weekend was managed. Everything from the support we had in the months leading up to the event, to the service we experienced from the team from our arrival to our departure was exceptional. They simply did not miss a beat when following our requests for set up of the reception venue, arrangements with external suppliers and our programme for the day.

The picturesque house and grounds are kept in amazing condition and were provided fully equipped for us to manage our own self catering arrangements for the weekend. We opted for use of the Pizza oven on Friday night with Tyson (who was always available when needed) giving us a quick run down of how to use it. We managed to serve all of our guests on-site in no time at all and was so much fun – highly recommend this.

The stables where our reception was held is brilliant both from of a functional stand point and looks stunning too! It easily accommodated our circa 120 guests with space for lounge furniture, cake table, gift table etc and even had some spare rooms on the side. One of the greatest aspects of this venue is that the place is essentially yours for the weekend so you can reasonably customise your whole event and make it completely your own.

Katie, Louise and Eldrydd were obviously of great support prior to the wedding but what really surprised Janna and I is how far the team went to ensure that everything was perfect. We ran out of decorative material for our table runners on Friday whilst we were setting the reception venue, Katie noticing this, went out to Newtown of her own accord to go and find some more for us and brought it back the same evening for us to finish setting the stables. This gesture simply speaks volumes about the kind of service that we experienced and we both are ecstatic with how the weekend went.

Married August 2022

The second we pulled up at Plas Dinam, we knew it was the venue for us – Katie, our wedding coordinator, put us at ease and gave us plenty of time to explore the venue, answering any questions we had. There are a range of places you can choose to get married – from outdoors to indoors, grand hall to green lawn; at Plas Dinam, you can really make the whole day your own and take the reins in terms of design, timings and suppliers for the big day. We loved that we could put our own stamp on the place and bring our vision to life.

The fact we could have so many family and friends staying onsite with us was also a massive win – and the house is fantastic! All the original features have been maintained and the bedrooms are beautiful, in between the madness of setting up and getting ready – it felt like a holiday!

For fellow Welsh people, you don’t need to go to England to get what you’re looking for; the venue of your dreams is closer to home!
