On Hitched.co.uk since 2021

Last update: May 2025

Steeped in history and dripping with elegance, Walcot Hall nestles majestically within five acres of beautiful landscaped formal gardens, set within twenty-seven acres of parkland in the North Lincolnshire countryside.

Winner of a raft of Awards, including TripAdvisor's Traveler's Choice Award for 2022, and nominee for Awards from top bridal platforms such as Bridebook and Hitched, Walcot Hall offers a wedding experience you are unlikely to find anywhere else in the UK.

Walcot Hall is a Grade II listed Georgian Hall built in 1726, and from being welcomed by the wrought iron gates and transported along the sweeping gravel driveway (which makes for a great photo opportunity!); to arriving to revel in the splendour of the Hall itself; every inch of the Estate oozes luxury, romance, and grandeur.

Once arrived, a secret passageway tempts you through into the tranquillity of the fountain garden, resplendent in lavender and bush roses. With greenery and flora as far as the eye can see, you are guaranteed to feel as though you have been conveyed back through time to an era in which the hustle and bustle of the technology-driven modern world melt away.

Facilities and Capacity

Ceremonies at Walcot Hall can be held in several breathtaking outdoor locations, including our popular Enchanted Forest and Secret Garden venues, which can be stunningly decorated to meet your exact specifications.

Expecting cooler weather or looking for an indoor location? Our stunning 18th-century room, with Viennese crystal chandeliers and tall windows overlooking the grounds, is perfect for indoor ceremonies. After tying the knot, you and your guests can make your way to the beautiful fountain terrace gardens for champagne and canapes before moving on to your drinks reception, framed by the tranquillity of the fountain and five acres of formal gardens.

Wedding breakfasts can take place inside the Hall or outside on the grounds in the marquee, which can accommodate as many as 400 people. If you choose the marquee, a candlelit path and a bridge illuminated by fairy lights will ensure that the whole experience is an unforgettable one from start to finish.

Once inside our marquee, you are free to dance the night away, making the most of our exquisite black-and-white chequered dance floor and basking under the reflected glow of our starry-night canopy.

Services Offered

From your very first contact with our amazing wedding team, you will be afforded the kind of VIP and individualised experience that every bride deserves! Starting with a private viewing appointment; which will offer you the chance to get a guided tour of the estate and spend time talking about your dream day; all the way through to the very last minute of your stay with us, we will endeavour to make every moment the most beautiful experience you could ever imagine.

Comprehensive rental packages come with tableware, linens, chairs, sashes, and bar and wine service.

Accommodation is available on-site in form of 7 luxuriously-appointed bedrooms within the Hall itself, as well as in our incredible Apple blossom Yurt and Snowdrop Lodge, which each have their own bathroom and kitchen facilities, as well as private hot tubs. If you are wishing to book accommodation for you or your guests, we are happy to provide details of how this can be booked during your viewing appointment, as this is separate to the wedding side of our bookings.

Amazing day made even better by the venue

We recently had our special day at the Walcot Hall Estate. The venue is beautiful in its setting and offers a piece of luxury without being over the top. We chose to have a Staycation wedding, with arrival on the Friday afternoon for the bridal party and close family guests staying at the Hall, that includes a home cooked meal on the Friday evening. This was a great way to relax into the weekend and start things off, as well as being able to enjoy the stunning décor of the venue.

The wedding was held on the Saturday with the ceremony taking place on the fountain terrace - thankfully the weather was perfect for this. To be surrounded by the greenery of the tress and shrubs, accented by the bright floral colours from the flowerbeds, made for a memorable occasion - as it should be. As there were a large number of guests for the reception, this was held in the marquee which is on-site. Walcot Hall Estate looked after the floral arrangements, as well as the venue styling in the marquee, and they did an amazing job. Everything matched together perfectly with a timeless and classy feel to it.

The owner, Cindy, wedding planner, Teresa, and all of the Hall’s staff were friendly and could not have done more for us to be helpful, both over the weekend and in advance of the day. So many things had already been taken care of that we were not expecting or even before we had thought of them.

As newbies to getting married, guidance from Walcot on what needed to be booked, and suggestions of who to use, was much appreciated and also took away much of the complexities to arranging the event. Overall, what was a magical day was made even more special by the venue and location we chose and we could not recommend it highly enough for anyone else.

A stunning venue for a stunning wedding

From the moment we looked around the venue, I fell in love with Walcot! Cindy and the staff were so welcoming and professional and we felt looked after from the very beginning. Our wedding co-ordinator Julie listened to our every need and delivered with exceptional results.

Would highly recommend Walcot - we would get married there all over again if we could!

May Wedding 2025

My Son and daughter in Law were married 17th May 25. the old house is beautiful with stunning bedrooms and luxury bedding.
the grounds were in full bloom and the sun shone brightly making the day just perfect. the large marquee is fabulous especially the dance floor area. Heating and Toilets do carry an additional charge so just watch out for that. Julie the wedding planner was on hand all day and did a fantastic job. few rules to follow regarding where and when you can enjoy a drink but all in all the day ran like clockwork. Cindy the owner, what a character, was warm and welcoming and nothing seemed too much trouble. stables round the back are a nice edition. our party also hired the Yurt and lodge, both are wonderful separate accommodations with hot tubs which did get used.
all in all our day was perfect.

The most magical experience

I was a best man and attended a wedding here, and I see what all the hype is about!

The house was magnificent and pristine, the staff were all very professional & attentive. Cindy couldn't do enough to help the happy couple on the day.

The food was absolutely incredible, we stayed in the yurt which has a hot tub and is so luxurious. We enjoyed our coffee & croissant on the day bed!

When I get married, this is the place I hope I can also be wed. Thank you so much for a lovely day, we cannot wait to visit again soon!

Indian blessing and happily ever after party


Walcott Hall is set in a quiet pretty hamlet in North Lincolnshire.Having no traffic to disturb the peace it is amazingly tranquil and calm.
As you approach the house along the sweeping driveway you will feel as if you have stepped back in time.
The house and grounds are magnificent and beautifully maintained.
As you step inside and admire the huge roaring fires, high ceilings ,elegant furniture and decor you can begin to imagine all the history the house has witnessed.The present owner Cindy will proudly show you around her outstanding home.
Away from the house the grounds hold a surprise around every corner.You may find the "secret garden" the fountain terrace ,the yurt or snowdrop lodge both discretely tucked away with hot tub.
The onsite marquee is placed slightly away from the house down a quaint winding path.
All the above is admittedly charming but the most impressive feature of Walcott Hall is undoubtedly its incredible staff.
Every single member of staff we met on our year long journey of planning our event exceeded all expectations.
They are pleasant,cheerfull,friendly and yet totally professional .They are hardworking, enthusiastic and passionate about their job.Nothing is a problem and they have a wonderful "can do"attitude.
This team will work with you to make your ideas come to life nomatter how unique they may be.
Cindy and her team are so accomadating and flexible to your thoughts and wishes.
From their vast experience they will make suggestions and give pertinent advice when needed.
Ultimately we had the perfect day from start to finish ,filled with joy which we will remember forever.
Thank you Cindy ,Teresa,Hannah and everyone else in your amazing team.

Amazing venue for my sisters wedding !

Walcot hall is the most amazing venue for a wedding! My sister got married here in August and I was maid of honour, Walcot is perfect for all the bridesmaids to get ready together, so many photo opportunities around the house and the grounds. The bridal suite was magical us all getting ready together! Cindy was very helpful and efficient if we needed anything at all. The perfect wedding venue !

Beautiful venue

The venue is absolutely stunning and the staff were amazing. There was nothing more we could’ve asked for. Food was fantastic, and exactly what we asked for, and the bar was a reasonable price. Big shout out to Cindy, Teresa, Hollie and Hannah for making our day special, and Julie for keeping me calm and planning the wedding!

Beautiful wedding

We visited for my sister’s wedding and all I can say is WOW! Everything was so well thought out. The venue is stunning and the staff are so organised and helpful. If I wasn’t already married I would absolutely want to get married here. It felt magical. The overnight rooms were also beautiful. I honestly couldn’t recommend it more. Thank you so so much.

Walcot Hall

We attended my daughter’s wedding here and it was a truly amazing day. We stayed the night before and the night of the wedding and it felt like we’d stepped into a fairytale. Cindy and her staff Julie and Teresa were on hand for every little detail. I cannot recommend this venue enough. If you are looking to be married in a truly special and unique place that will be in your memory forever, then choose Walcot Hall. You won’t be disappointed

Our fairytale dream

Walcot Hall is an amazing place that we loved from the moment we looked round. x The place is beautiful and full of character, and feels like a home rather than a just a house. They go out of their way to make your day perfect and unique.
The staff were phenomenal!!!
Teresa, Julie, Hannah, Cindy and everyone else involved go above and beyond and make the day as individual and quirky as you want.
We knew we wanted outdoor wedding but the weather wasn't looking promising. Not a problem, we have umbrellas, we can make it work, nothing stopped us and we were made to feel like the most important people in the world xx
Having the whole house for the wedding made it feel both relaxed and full of energy. The bar was well stocked and Hannah was always on hand to keep the drinks flowing xx
Our first meeting with Cindy she promised to make our dreams a reality, and make our wedding magical and unique, and she was right, everyone made it perfect for us. We was reminded that our day was for us, and our ideas was all that mattered even if people had to sit in the rain, or get cold haha x
I just wish we could do it again, Teresa and Julie become your family when planning your wedding, and the only negative I have to say is you miss them when it's over xxx
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
