Last update: April 2025

Wyresdale Weddings is a charming countryside, barn & manor house wedding venue located in the Forest of Bowland. The venue's heritage barns have been lovingly restored to create a stunning, spacious venue where you can exchange your vows, enjoy your wedding breakfast and party the night away. Estate cottages and old coach houses provide the accommodation on the night of your wedding, with accommodation for forty two guests. The Manor House and lodge are for your stay the night before, sleeping 12 guests in beautiful surroundings. Lawns, lakes and woodlands are all on hand for timeless photos, providing picture perfect backdrops for your drinks reception.

Although this romantic gem is adored for its tranquil atmosphere and scenic beauty, it is well-connected to major cities thanks to its proximity to the M6.

NEW FOR 2025...

Our estate has undergone some incredibly exciting changes! New works include a beautiful walled ceremony garden, where you can say 'I do' with the rolling fells of the Trough of Bowland as your backdrop.

There will is also a newly enhanced inside bar, with bespoke banquette leather seating and underfloor heated limestone floor. Should the weather be on the cooler side, your indoor drinks reception space has now been refreshed and will include an abundance of comfortable seating, a log burner, underfloor heating and stunning chandeliers. Not forgetting the atrium area for your indoor confetti shot. For your evening party, this area will showcase a central stage, open plan access and fairy light drapes for you and your guests to party away under the stars!

If the sun is shining, then guests will make their way outside following the ceremony - stopping at the new outdoor bar for a drink before heading up the steps towards the handmade oak pavilion or perhaps to embark on some lawn games! The outdoor ceremony garden will include a beautiful oak frame for you to greet your guests ahead of that all important confetti shot...

FACILITIES & CAPACITIES

Wyresdale Weddings is home to a variety of beautiful event spaces. The Ceremony Barn is an ideal place to tie the knot, offering a stunning blank canvas for you to bring your wedding ceremony dreams to life.

Receptions can be held in the vibrant Party Barn, a creative space for your drinks reception and late-night dancing. For an outdoor alternative, the South Lawn is a wonderful option. Hidden away behind the café gardens, this open-air setting can be used for lawn games and welcome drinks.

Book a tour & book this venue

I don’t think there is enough thank you’s in this world for the staff at Wyresdale Park. From my first visit here with my mum as a potential wedding venue to walking away with my husband.

Please go and book a tour!! You will not be disappointed.

ALL the staff are excited for you, are the biggest cheerleaders and are completely on board for milking the wedding / bride era. Well and truly a pleasure to have dealt with.

Clare, We are so proud to have you follow our journey and ourselves to be part of your journey.

You all have been a pleasure to deal with! Thank you for making us feel important and we are not just another couple getting married. You truly do want the best for your couples.

Before -
The first tour I did, it left me speechless. That was purely because of the grounds. I wouldn’t stop talking about it and it was my dad who said, if it was your dress you would say yes as it just feels right. That same evening, the email was sent.

During -
None stop communication but not too much, the staff just get it! The staff here don’t just take money and have no communication. They are there when needed, all platforms of communication! No question is silly. They are ALL for fun ideas!

Wedding Eve / Wedding Day -
AMAZING, SELFLESS, ABOVE & BEYOND!
We had the option to go up the day before to set up as there was no weddings on. Which we as couple personally loved. We could dress the venue how we wanted and could have that experience ourselves.
From John and his family, to all the staff at Wyresdale they just want you to have the best time. They are there to make sure you have the best day of your life. I know it’s their job to take care of everything but they really do!

So in a nutshell, BOOK THE TOUR & THEN BOOK WYRESDALE PARK AS YOUR WEDDING VENUE!

Book Wyresdale…You will not regret it!

We had the most incredible wedding day last week at Wyresdale and can’t thank the team enough..: we’ve just about come back down to earth. From start to finish, the wedding coordination team were second to none — warm, professional, and effortlessly calm, making everything feel relaxed and stress-free. Every vendor they recommended was fantastic and clearly hand-picked for their quality and attention to detail.

The renovations to the venue are stunning — they've managed to preserve its charm while adding thoughtful, modern touches that elevate the whole experience. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about how beautiful the setting was and how smoothly everything went.

We truly couldn’t have asked for a better day or a more supportive team to help bring it all together. Wyresdale is a dream venue, and we feel so lucky to have celebrated there! Highly, highly recommend.

A word of caution though: The wedding blues will hit you HARD after getting married there…make sure you have your honeymoon booked quickly after!!

The best venue for the best day!

We got married here on 27/3/25 and we cannot fault the venue and the team. The different barns for each part of the day meant every aspect flowed seamlessly from one to the next.
Our co-ordinators, Clare and Leah, could not have been more helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We arrived the day before to style and set up the barns but weren't able to do everything in time. When we saw the barns on our wedding day they exceeded our expectations with how they had been styled.
The bar staff were brilliant from pouring pints to tying together a guest's broken shoe!
Thank you so much for making our day even more special.

Theres no better venue!

I got married at Wyresdale 21/12/2024 and they were exceptional.
Me and my partner had searched for venues and were giving up hope when we found Wyresdale. We knew straight away we’d found our venue.
It’s the only venue that was perfectly accommodated for summer AND winter. We had a winter wedding and the inside was so beautiful I didn’t care if it rained.
Throughout the co-ordinates were so helpful and on the day they were incredible! Leah and Amy were so helpful and kind and we were so grateful to them for making the day a success!
The food from striped kitchen is incredible too all our guests raved about it, the flowers from their florist were beautiful and the bridal cottage the night before is stunning!
You will have the best wedding at Wyresdale!

The most perfect venue

Where to start with Wyresdale? This was the most perfect venue, it has everything! We fell in love with the place the minute we got there and knew it was where we wanted to get married. The intimate feel of the bar area, the bright and airy wedding barn and the stunning ceremony room was exactly what we wanted. The venue is a blank canvas but still has a lot of character and lends itself to putting your own stamp on the place. Our favourite spots were the confetti corridor, disco barn, the lake and the lawn. We were very lucky to get married on one of the last sunny days of summer so we managed to make the most of the whole venue. Even if the weather isn't great, the venue is still caters for this.

The accommodation was another thing that drew us in, we managed to have lots of close family and friends stay over, meaning less stress having to make sure people had arranged taxis. The accommodation for both the night before and the night of was amazing, we couldn't fault it. The North Wing and the Lodge were a gorgeous places to get ready in before the wedding and it looks amazing on our photos.

The staff were absolutely incredible too and could not have done enough for us. They were attentive and kept in touch regularly without it being overwhelming, were always on the end of the phone or an email and were really laid back about everything (which is exactly what you need!). We had a few things to set up the night before and Claire was on hand to make sure that these were safely stored and everything was set up perfectly the next day. Special shout out to Claire, Leah and all the bar staff for making the day run so smoothly! All our guests said the bar staff were so friendly which makes a big difference on the day, so thank you :)

We wouldn't change a thing about our day and we'd love to do it all over again!

Absolute perfection!

If you want a quintessentially English, picture perfect, rustic, yet elegant venue, Wyresdale is it!
Wyresdale Weddings runs like a well-oiled machine. The team are slick, attentive, professional, discreet and absolutely nothing was too much trouble to them. They can also recommend other professional services to work alongside that know the venue and these were all amazing too - the food, the flowers and the photographers.
The location, the co-ordination before and during the big day, the friendly staff and the breathtaking venue were all key ingredients in what was the most perfect day.
I would like to thank the owners of Wyresdale for allowing weddings at their home and making it such a magical experience for us to enjoy x

The best day of our lives

Thank you so much for helping us create the wedding of our dreams! From the very start of the process, you have helped me in every way possible. You have been so friendly, professional and answered all my questions in a timely manner. The venue was perfect and all our guests have commented on how amazing it is, what a smooth day it was and how lovely all the staff are.
A very SPECIAL THANKS to Heather our coordinator on the day and Clare who helped us in the morning. You were both a dream, made me feel so calm and relaxed and I couldn't have asked for anyone or anything else. Thank you so much for being a part of our special day, we will cherish these memories forever.

A truly magical day

If I could relive this day every year, I would.

My partner is a Wedding DJ, and I am a Wedding Coordinator so when we got engaged, the pressure was most definitely on. Wyresdale was the only venue that he suggested viewing, and I fell in love instantly.

The booking process was easy, and communication leading up to the day was simple.

The team on the day of our Wedding (22nd June 2024) were incredible. They were so easy going and not intrusive what so ever.

The setting for the whole day was absolutely gorgeous! The weather was also on our side. Every area from bridal prep, the grooms den, the ceremony barn, our drinks reception on the south lawn, the wedding breakfast in the white barn and the evening reception in the party barn were extremely aesthetic - including the bar and grounds all around. The boating lake is absolutely breathtaking and the images from the boat using a drone are incredible.

The accommodation was perfect - all of our guests have commented on the day, the venue and accommodation.

Without hesitation, book.

Wyresdale Weddings

We had a breeze when booking with the venue for our big day! We chose the package, midweek deal which ticked all the boxes for us and saved us so much time and worries! The team were attentive throughout via emails or calls. The accommodation was fabulous for both parties, the night before. The day went pretty much without a hitch, and we had the best time!

Brilliant Package

Thank you so much to Jaydi, Leah and the rest of the team at Wyresdale!

As a same sex couple it was really important that we felt comfortable when booking a venue after some bad experiences elsewhere…

We booked the package for our July Wedding and we are so glad we did! The entire process from booking onto the initial open day was so smooth. Our package included everything you really need which takes away so much of the stress. The communication from the team was fantastic and any questions or queries were answered quickly!

If you’re looking for a beautiful venue set in an amazing location with the most helpful team then look no further!

The best day of our lives

We had the most incredible wedding day with wyresdale! From breakfast being delivered to us in the morning, the set up, getting us all to the alter on time and just making us feel comfortable the entire day. The day ran so smoothly and went off without a hitch. The team really know what they’re doing and couldn’t be more helpful. We got a package that included flowers and a food and drinks package and all the suppliers worked so well together and are based on site which is so reassuring. I can’t stress enough how incredible this venue was, I would recommend to anyone!

The best day of our lives 🤍

Where we do we begin?!?! From start to finish our wedding at Wyresdale park was absolutely perfect 🤍🤍🤍

The wedding coordination team were incredible since the day we had our first tour and we fell in love with the venue instantly. The relaxed vibe at Wyresdale was perfect for us and we knew we HAD to get married there!

Fast forward 18 months to May this year and we couldn’t have asked for anything more! Everything ran like clockwork but still keeping that relaxed and chill feeling, simply effortless 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Clare on the day was just brilliant, she kept me calm at the right times and made sure we had the day we had dreamed of, plus even more!

Our guests absolutely loved the venue, the yurts and the grounds - simply perfect 😍

We couldn’t recommend Wyresdale weddings enough, we just wish we could do it all again and are so sad it’s all over 😭😭😭

Thank you team Wyresdale, what a venue, what a team, what a wedding 🤍 we truly had the best day of our lives!

A perfect day!

Where to start, we have so many positive things to say about the team at Wyresdale. We knew as soon as we attended a tour that it was the perfect venue for us, the barns offer so many possibilities and the overnight accommodation was a big plus point for us. The team were so helpful and responsive during the planning process and kept in touch with us. Our wedding day ran absolutely smoothly, a big thank you to Clare who set up on the day and Hannah who was our on the day co-ordinator. Nothing was too much to ask and they were amazing! We used a couple of Wyresdale’s recommended suppliers too, Gemma from Bluebells & Daisies did our flowers, Loft beauty did the bridal party make up and The Striped Kitchen did our food. 5* to all of these as well! We honestly couldn’t have dreamed of a more perfect day and wish we could do it all again. A BIG thank you!

The BEST wedding venue!

We couldn't recommend Wyresdale anymore. We viewed a few wedding venues, and we just knew that Wyresdale was the one for us. It had such a cosy feel, and we loved that there were separate rooms for each part of the day. Not only that, but the amount of accommodation was perfect for us with a large family and friends who wanted to stay the night of the wedding, and for the bride to stay the night before - Wyresdale ticked every box!
The team also couldn't have been more helpful, always on hand to answer questions and helping our day run smoothly. The partner caterer (Striped Kitchen) were absolutely outstanding and the grounds provide so many amazing photo opportunities.
We're so happy we picked Wyresdale as our wedding venue and we love that we can even go back to visit the on site café or lake.
Thanks again to all of the team for making our day so special.

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
