The wedding of dreams
Where do I even begin? From start to finish the team at the Lancrigg were exceptional. No job was too big, and no request was too bizarre. We were their largest wedding with 120 guests, and the staff were so adaptable when it came to confirming the outdoor ceremony, even with the high chance of rain, plan a, b, c and z were created.
Simon was wonderful and made us feel right at home for the weekend.
Sereen, Anna and Nikki were incredible, they were so calm, relaxed and sociable, it felt like they were part of the wedding guest list.... we especially loved dancing with them at the silent disco at 2:20am! What troupers!
And finally the view, we have had endless texts, emails and calls commenting on the fairytale view during the ceremony, many couldn't believe it wasn't AI.
My husband and I look back at the wedding as the best weekend of our lives, and it couldn't have been possible without the hospitality of the Lancrigg team... oh and Simon of course, for owning such an incredible property! Yay Simon!
Thank you to you all, for making our dreams come true, and we will see you all soon for a little trip in winter- big hugs to Sereen and the girls!

One word: Magical!
Where do we even begin! From the moment we set foot at The Lancrigg we knew we’d found the right venue for our wedding! Simon and the team were fabulous from start to finish, and even though we were blessed with fantastic weather, we knew we were in safe hands no matter the conditions, with the beautiful old buildings and fantastic team able and prepared to adapt to the famous Lake District weather!
A wedding at The Lancrigg is something very special indeed. The staff are second to none, with a very special shout to Sereen, and the team whose delicious food and wonderful service made it feel that we were surrounded by friends, and not just venue staff.
Nothing was too much trouble, and they were happy to fit around all our requirements. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue and will forever feel a part of The Lancrigg.
Lancrigg's reply:
Hi Nicole & Chris, thank you so much for your wonderfully kind words! “Magical” is exactly how we hope a Lancrigg wedding feels, and we’re delighted you knew from the moment you arrived that you’d found the right place. It means the world to hear such lovely feedback about our team, as well as the food and service. It was an absolute pleasure to be part of your special day, and we’re so happy to hear you’ll always feel part of the Lancrigg family. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness! 💕 -

The most picturesque Lake District venue, full of character, with the best team making it happen
We had our midweek wedding at Lancrigg in June, and it was the most amazing day we could ever have dreamed of. So much of that was down to the incredible team at Lancrigg, as well as the absolutely beautiful setting.
The venue itself is stunning, and having enough accommodation for our family and friends to stay made the whole experience even more special. Every member of staff was incredibly helpful and kind, and nothing ever seemed like too much trouble.
There was some uncertainty over whether the weather would hold out long enough for us to have our ceremony outside, but Simon and the team made it a priority to have everything ready so that we could move outdoors at the last minute if the weather allowed - which we were so grateful for.
We stayed for two nights, both the night before and the night of the wedding, and enjoyed lovely breakfasts each morning. We also had pizzas in the evening, which were delicious, and the team even saved two for us to enjoy after we had finished celebrating at the end of the night! Throughout our stay, everyone was incredibly accommodating of the various dietary requirements within our group.
The bar staying open until 2am was the perfect end to the day, and the staff genuinely seemed happy to be there and involved in the celebrations. So many of our guests commented on how friendly and kind everyone was.
Overall, Lancrigg was absolutely incredible, and we cannot thank everyone enough for the time, effort, and care they put into making our wedding so special. We would wholeheartedly recommend Lancrigg to anyone considering getting married there, and honestly wish we could do it all over again!-

Just go and book… the best wedding venue
Lancrigg is the best.
I could just leave this review exactly like that but I won’t.
When we met Simon, one of the first things he said was ‘you can treat Lancrigg like your home for the weekend’ and on the weekend, that couldn’t have been more true.
The flexibility was unparalleled, as well as the view, the staffing, the cleanliness, the rooms… the list is endless.
I never thought this would be a mighty compliment, but from wedding planning, it most certainly is: the team at the Lancrigg are the most reasonable crew (not the case with all venues and suppliers). No changes, questions, queries were ever too much. They helped execute our vision of rugby posts, giant tiramisu and hand pulled beer. They looked after the 10 kids staying, made our guests with restricted mobility feel welcomed and looked after and no matter what we asked, it was never too much.
There are too many highlights to share, but the true testament to Lancrigg are the team. Simon, Sereen, Nikki and Anna: we owe you so much and are so grateful for your time, energy and effort.
From our guests, we’ve had comments on how good the scrambled eggs were at brekkie, the hash browns went down a treat and how helpful every single person was. Everyone said how amazing the location, view, and the house itself was. So kudos to you all!
Thank you! Team G&C
Lancrigg's reply:
Hi Grace & Carl, thank you for such a wonderful review. It was honestly an absolute pleasure to be part of your wonderful wedding weekend. We loved helping bring your unique vision to life – your giant tiramisu delivered by wheelbarrow will go down in Lancrigg history! Hearing that you and your guests felt so well looked after means the world to us. Your kind words about our team, our food and our venue are truly appreciated - thank you. Wishing you both a lifetime of love and happiness! 💕 -

Loved our wedding at Lancrigg!
Me and my husband absolutely loved our wedding from the moment we arrived at Lancrigg! We stayed at Lancrigg the day before the wedding with our close family & friends and from the moment we arrived, all the staff were so friendly and welcoming (especially Sereen & Simon). Everyone kept saying how beautiful the venue and the surroundings were! It was so nice to be able to relax and have a drink with everyone before the big day. Me and my husband were on such a high all weekend because everything ran so smoothly and perfect! None of us wanted to leave Lancrigg on the Sunday and I wish we had booked at least one more night there to reminisce about the wedding ❤️ we can’t thank everyone at Lancrigg enough for making our wedding the most special and unforgettable day, we are truly grateful 😊Lancrigg's reply:

We're delighted that you and your family and friends felt so welcome from the moment you arrived, we'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Sereen, Simon, and the rest of the team. Knowing you were able to relax, enjoy every moment, and leave with such happy memories means the absolute world to us.

The perfect venue
We have just had our wedding weekend at the Lancrigg and we don’t have the words to describe how incredible it was. As soon as we viewed Lancrigg, we knew that was where we wanted to get married and we are so happy we chose it for our special day. The setting is amazing, the house is so lovely & the rooms are all great!
The planning of the wedding was also very good, Alison and Simon were on hand for any questions and were so accommodating with our requests. That continued when we got to the venue on Friday as no request was too big! We requested for one of the beds to be removed to use the bedroom as a hair and makeup room and that was done with no questions. Simon even got up a ladder to fit a projector for us in the barn so we were able to watch the England match.
The staff at Lancrigg are all amazing, they all had constant smiles on their faces! Sereen is also incredible, we had a pre-wedding dinner and her food was delicious! The Breakfast was also very very good, all our guests loved it.
We would recommend this venue to anyone, the beautiful setting, the gorgeous barn and the amazing staff! What really stood out to us was the flexibility! As soon as we arrived we really felt like the venue was ours for the weekend and we could do what we liked. It was amazing to have it all weekend & we really made the most of it.
We are so so grateful to everyone at Lancrigg for making it the wedding of our dreams! We’re just so sad we can’t do it all again. Thank you!!!

Perfect Location and Perfect Venue
We recently got married in Lancrigg and couldn't recommend this venue enough.
We were lucky enough to have dry weather so our ceremony was outside which is the perfect backdrop and no need for additional decor as the view of the hills does everything you need.
The team at Lancrigg went above and beyond to ensure we had the best day and this started from the moment we arrived on the Friday right through to leaving on the Sunday.
The breakfast provided both mornings was amazing too - full cooked breakfast alongside fruit, pastries and cereal.
We couldn't have hoped for a more perfect wedding venue.-

Lancrigg, Grasmere - Wedding weekend in May 2026
We have had many memories at the Lancrigg in Grasmere as a family over the years during our annual trip to the Lake District so as soon as they started doing weddings we knew we wanted to get married here.
We had the most gorgeous time celebrating our wedding with our close family and friends. We opted the full venue hire over a May weekend which meant we had full exclusive access to the hotel, guestrooms, barn and grounds from around Friday midday to Sunday. This meant we had a relaxed moving in of all of our wedding decor and meant our guests who were staying at the hotel could relax with drinks in the garden enjoying views of the mountains while we set up. When we checked out we were able to enjoy treats from the Poet’s bar and reflect on the magic of the weekend while not feeling rushed to leave.
Lancrigg recommended us some fabulous suppliers who really supported us up to and throughout our wedding day. Having a supportive team is key to a successful wedding day and the teams were able to deal with the unpredictable Lake District weather to turn around an outdoor ceremony with 30 minutes notice which made our day even more special. They clearly work closely with their recommended suppliers and we fully trusted them to make decisions for us on the day.
A particular shoutout must be made to Sereen who provided stunning breakfasts and delicious Friday evening food for us (including last minute Vegan platters!) and also the lovely staff who worked during our wedding who were so friendly and quickly became part of our celebrations.
Thank you again to Simon and Alison for your fast communication, answering all the silly Qs and for ultimately sharing your beautiful venue with us for our wedding!Lancrigg's reply:
Hi Laura, thank you so much for your lovely review. It was such a privilege to host your wonderful wedding weekend, especially knowing the venue has been part of your family's Lake District memories for so many years. We're delighted you and your guests were able to relax and enjoy the celebrations, whatever the weather - and so pleased you got the outdoor ceremony that you'd dreamed of! Your kind words about our team, suppliers and Sereen mean a great deal. Thank you for trusting us with such a special occasion, we truly wish you both every happiness for the future. -

Simple the best venue in the lakes!
Lancrigg is a true gem in the lakes!It is simply a phenomenal venue that I would highly recommend.
The staff are brilliant, you can make it truly your own, the rooms are all unique and amazing and the overall flexibility is very high- this is not a cookie cutter place.
We hosted a bank holiday weekend wedding and did all sorts....we managed to fit in walking, wild swimming, afternoon tea, played croquet on the lawn, jenga and all the garden games, had a firepit at the wedding, pizza party, drinks reception.... cocktails.. epic breakfast.. a lovely casual lunch and coffee &cake... golf... church wedding... and our dog could attend it all!
Guests can walk into the village easily to explore the lakes, the scenery is stunning and a fabulous list of suppliers who can help cater to all your needs
We simply had the best time and our guests did as well! Thank you so much to Alison, Simon and the team xxxLancrigg's reply:

A fairytale location where you can make your wedding your own.
When we viewed Lancrigg we were captivated by the view and knew immediately it was the wedding venue for us - with us drawing up the paperwork while we were still in the carpark at our viewing... And we were not disappointed.
The stunning location speaks for itself and, with plenty of onsite accommodation and a beautiful wedding barn for the reception, the Lancrigg is uniquely both a fairytale location and a home away from home. Simon and Alison were attentive in the lead up, answering our many questions. With Simon building a new secret wardrobe door onto the Azalea room just in time for our wedding, its safe to say they went above and beyond.
On to the wedding itself...the Lancrigg gave us the freedom to make our wedding our own. We had some outlandish requests including a South African welcome braai, confetti cannons on the dancefloor and a firework display deployed using walkie talkies. They let us do our thing and delivered it all. With many of our guests saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to, we know that a lot of this is due to the Lancrigg's wraparound catering, stunning location, and flexibility. The baby Guinness shots may have helped a bit too.
Sereen, who works there, was a real vibe the whole weekend, juggling a million things, and lifting the atmosphere while cooking for us at the same time.
It was the best weekend of our lives. If we could, we'd do it all over again tomorrow.-
