The Yorkshire Wedding Venues You Need to Book Now

Take the stress out of choosing where to wed with this selection of the best venues around

Gisborough Hall
The Venue
At this charming Victorian country house on the edge of the North York Moors, the blossom trees act as natural confetti in spring, the rose garden blooms in summer, and the building itself is ivy-clad in autumn, so you’re promised a truly beautiful backdrop for the most romantic of weddings here, no matter what time of year you’ve chosen for your big day.
What’s on Offer?
There are various locations at the hall to choose from to say ‘I do’: the neutral-toned Madoc Suite, the Glass House with its views of the rolling countryside, or the garden for an outdoor ceremony. Enjoy a glass of fizz in the rose garden post-ceremony as guests join you for photographs, and after partying into the night, retreat to a luxurious four-poster bedroom. There are plenty of rooms for your guests too, and you can all start the ‘morning after’ with a delicious full Yorkshire breakfast.
Why Wed Here?
Gisborough Hall hosts just one wedding a day, so whether you’re opting for an intimate reception, a grand celebration, or an al fresco ceremony, it’s always all about you.
