Hardcastle Crags

Thank you for your interest in Hardcastle Crags, the team at Hardcastle is currently on furlough leave and will not be checking this account.

If you would like to book a viewing when we are back up and running, then please email  hardcastle.weddings@nationaltrust.org.uk to say you would like to be contacted and give an indication of which year and season you are interested in.

Thank you for your support for the National Trust and its mission during the Coronavirus crisis. We are looking forward to meeting you when the time comes to reopen.

Located in the woodland among the Pennines of West Yorkshire at Hardcastle Crags lies Gibson Mill. Sitting in the heart of the valley, the venue is often described as a magical location by our visitors. Our peaceful and relaxed environment will make your day feel extraordinarily special. By holding your wedding here, you are supporting the National Trust and helping to look after the site for future generations. 

Due to the nature of the site our availability is seasonal. Ceremonies are held on the old weaving floor which comfortably seats up to 85 people. The industrial min-imalism of this space makes a stunning blank canvas for your chosen wedding theme.  While guests enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Hardcastle Crags the ceremony hall is transformed into your reception or evening venue. In the past, just as the cotton mill became the Entertainment Emporium, the Weavers’ Floor now becomes the dancefloor and the bar is open for the celebrations to begin.

You can create a day that reflects your individuality. Our choice of wedding packages means you can make your wedding truly your own, whether you want a simple ceremony or a special full day of celebration.
