Once in a lifetime experience!

I honestly don't know where to start, there are so many factors about our day that just made it more than we could've ever hoped for. We first met Lynsey, the wedding co-ordinator, around 6 months before our planned wedding date. She put our minds at ease immediately saying we could easily achieve what we wanted within our budget and time frame. Nothing was too much trouble, and when it came to the actual day, we knew we didn't have to worry at all because she had everything planned meticulously. We honestly cannot thank her or recommend her enough! As for the venue, we couldn't have hoped for anything more perfect. We checked into our room and were immediately greeted with stunning views over Bassenthwaite and the gorgeous hotel grounds. The ceremony room and function room were both perfect - who wouldn't want to say 'I do' with views like that in the background! Thank you so much Armathwaite Hall, for delivering our perfect wedding day!

Christmas Wedding

We got married at Armathwaite on 13/12/25 and couldn’t have picked a more perfect venue for our day. The wedding coordinator Lynsey is absolutely amazing and went above and beyond for us on the day and communicating with us up until the day, she made sure everything was perfect and made us feel so relaxed. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and was even more magical being decorated for Christmas, all of our guests couldn’t believe how stunning the venue was and how amazing everything was including the food etc. I would recommend anyone to get married here

The perfect venue

The whole process of planning a wedding with the team at Armathwaite Hall was so easy and relaxed. The day was perfect and the value for money was incredible. We would recommend this to any couples looking to get married in the beautiful Lakes.

Best day ever

My budget wasn’t great and with Armathwaite, I was able to have a tailor-made wedding package with a relaxed hog roast buffet - no 3 course meal which dropped costs massively! We were able to use their sound system for own devices because we couldn’t afford a dj/band and didn’t see the need for it with the style of wedding that we wanted. Forever grateful to Lynsey, the wedding coordinator, because I thought that I would have to do the setup on the morning of the wedding because we didn’t have a venue dresser. Lynsey and her team sorted everything for me so that I could enjoy the morning. No regrets with my venue choice at all!

Wedding of our dreams

We got married at Armathwaite Hall in May 2025 and had an absolutely fantastic day. The hotel itself is a beautiful venue, such a stunning building with beautiful grounds and a fantastic view onto Bassenthwaite Lake. So many of our guests complimented the hotel and said they had a great day.

The customer service we received was second to none and we cannot speak highly enough of the hotel staff. Lynsey and João are both worth their weight in gold, they really went above and beyond to make our day really special and to make our dreams of an outdoor ceremony come true. Lynsey was a shining light throughout the planning process and on the day itself, she provided invaluable advice, had a wealth of knowledge and she began to feel like a friend. Lynsey and João thank you so much for making our day so special!

The day after our wedding, we went to The Grill for a meal and again experienced the fantastic customer service and delicious food. We were brought a surprise dessert with candles at the end of our meal. They even noticed I am vegan and made sure I could share it with my new husband.

We would recommend Armathwaite Hall to anyone who is considering a dog-friendly Lake District wedding. I wish we could do our day all over again!

Amazing venue and staff

We had an absolutely wonderful wedding day at Armathwaite Hall, the venue was exquisite, food was absolutely delicious and above all the wedding team were absolute perfection. I found Armathwaite Hall on Hitched and messaged for a viewing, we got a response really quickly and shortly after had a viewing booked. This was our 2nd viewing for a wedding venue and as soon as we met the wedding co-ordinator Lynsey and the beautiful venue, we knew straight away this is where we will be getting married. The venue is pure luxury and we had a perfect wedding spa weekend, we couldn’t have asked for better. The room and view was stunning, the breakfast, wedding breakfast and evening meal the night before was absolutely stunning and we felt like royalty the whole weekend. However we want to really thank Lynsey for making our weekend and the wedding process seamless, she really is the best of the best. Nothing at all was too much trouble and she was truly on top of her game throughout it all, I absolutely believe it wouldn't have gone as smoothly without her there by our side for the 18 months planning and the big weekend itself. We can’t thank you enough Lynsey and would recommend you and Armathwaite Hall to everyone and anyone considering getting married in the lakes. We can’t wait to return for our 1st wedding anniversary and many other anniversaries to come!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
