Last update: August 2024

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.

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. Able to seat up to 150 people, our ceremony barn maintains many of its original barn features, as well as a log burner which is perfect for those stunning winter weddings. 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!

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!

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!

Wow, Wow, Wow - our dream wedding venue

We couldn't recommend the venue or team highly enough. Nothing was too much and the team made organising our wedding so easy. The venue is simply beautiful, especially at Christmas. It's so unique, and like nothing else we saw, our guests can't stop raving about it and how wonderful the staff were. Thank you team Wyresdale, especially Jaydi!

A Perfect Day

Wyresdale was the most beautiful venue for our wedding day. We couldn't be happier with how the day went, all the co-ordinators made sure everything ran like clockwork, and we felt so well looked after. We genuinely didn't have to worry about a single thing on the day as everything was so well organised by the team. The Wyresdale team were always on hand to answer any of our questions in the run up to the day too, and I always found them very responsive on email. I would highly recommend Wyresdale, it's a stunning countryside venue, with amazing grounds to wander through for photos.

The accommodation for both the night before and the night of the wedding is absolutely stunning. Everything is done to such a high standard, and the décor is beautiful - it feels like such luxury, without being at all pretentious.

We used the suppliers recommended or based at the venue for our hair & make-up, flowers and catering and it made everything so much easier having everyone in one place. Them all knowing the venue so well meant we didn't have to worry about anything!

Both ourselves and our guests absolutely loved the day, and we all left feeling very happy! I cannot fault a thing, thank you Wyresdale!

Thinking about booking your wedding at Wyresdale? BOOK IT NOW! We promise you won’t regret it.

After almost 10 years together. we got married at Wyresdale in September 2023, and had the most perfect days of our lives.

We actually didn’t look around anywhere else, as we fell in love with your venue straight alway. And we have had no regrets since. From the very start of booking our venue (shown around by the lovely Sarah) , to the communication running up to the day, to the advise and hints and tips. Everything was perfection.

Then the actual day - where do we even begin to explain the wonderful day? Your team are incredibly talented. The whole day ran sooo smoothly , no stress, everything was was like a fairytale.

You looked after us and our guests so well. The venue is stunning! The whole grounds were just the most beautiful place we had ever seen. Our guests keep going on and on and on about it.

We can't thank you all enough. Special thank you to Heather who made the day just run from start to the end. You were amazing calm, even when starting the ceremony 30mins late and then my dads speech lasting 30minutes!

The accommodation on site was a huge bonus for us, being able to stay with all our loved ones the night before and then having over 40guests on the wedding night. Everyone loved their glamping tents and the posh new coach house. The honeymoon suite is very special and the perfect end to the perfect day.

Then the next morning everything being in the Shippon ready for us - not a single thing missing! With a yummy breakfast whilst discussing the day before!

The suppliers that came within the package - stunning flowers from Bluebells & daises, delicious food from the striped kitchen, incredible photos from Claire Basiuk and my beautiful hair and make up done by The Loft. It took the stress out of everything. You are one lovely family, and we felt like a part of it whilst we were there.

We will be coming back to Wyresdale for the rest of our lives, and will recommend to anyone wanting a perfect wedding.

A dream venue!

Wyresdale Park was the most magical venue for our May wedding. From start to finish, the team of coordinators were always on hand to answer any questions, and support us throughout the planning process. We loved our wedding day, and so many of our guests commented on how amazing the venue really is. From the boating lake, to the barns, to the yurts, every part of this venue really gives you individuality and space to enjoy your day with your guests. The whole team were amazing on the day, and we were never rushed around or felt restricted in any way, they supported us to make our wedding our dream. There is plenty of accommodation options too, which really makes it feel like you are in your own paradise with your guests and it's lovely all having breakfast together the next day. We also used some of their recommended suppliers, like The Striped Kitchen and Bluebells and Daisies who we can't recommend enough! Overall, there really was nothing we could have changed from our day, and highly recommend this amazing venue to all.

An insider view from a wedding photographer

As a Lancashire based wedding photographer I obviously work at a lot of venues and see the BTS of a wedding day.

Wyresdale is one of my favourite venues. Not only does it offer something quite different from any venues locally in terms of aesthetic but the staff at the venue are great. Ensuring the day runs to plan and their couples and guests have a smooth and enjoyable experience on the day. Obviously makes my job a lot easier too!
Absolutely lovely venue and can’t wait to get back and shoot there again in the future.

Our perfect autumn barn wedding

Our autumn wedding at Wyresdale Park was an absolute dream come true! We couldn't have asked for a more stunning and unique venue to celebrate our special day.

From the moment we arrived at the picturesque location, we knew we had made the right choice. The changing colors of the leaves provided a breathtaking backdrop that left us and our guests in awe. We were blown away by the beauty of the barn - the exposed brick walls, high ceilings, and warm lighting made it the perfect setting for our reception.

But what really made our day truly unforgettable was the exceptional service provided by the staff at Wyresdale Park. They went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of and that we had the wedding of our dreams. Their attention to detail and dedication to making everything perfect for us was outstanding and made us feel like royalty.

One of the many things that made our autumn wedding at Wyresdale Park so special was the incredible accommodation. The bridal suite was absolutely perfect, providing a luxurious and comfortable space for us to get ready for our big day. It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed to feel pampered and relaxed.

But it wasn't just the bridal suite that impressed us - the yurts for our guests were also amazing! They provided a really fun and unique experience for our guests, who loved the chance to stay in such a beautiful setting. The yurts themselves were spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed, with everything our guests needed to enjoy their stay. The common area was especially great, as it allowed everyone to gather and make new friends, creating a real sense of community and togetherness.

We can't recommend Wyresdale Park enough as a wedding venue. It's the perfect choice for couples who want a unique and memorable experience that they and their guests will never forget. We're so grateful that we chose this amazing barn for our special day, and we're sure that other couples will feel the same way too. If you're looking for a wedding venue that truly stands out, look no further than Wyresdale Park - you won't be disappointed!
