Description

Cuckney House is licensed to hold civil ceremonies in our outdoor small Victorian pavilion, dining room or stunning panelled ballroom. Each room in the house has been sympathetically restored by Northern Design Award Winner Rachel McLane, offering a classic, timeless style with original architectural features. The landscaped gardens are idyllic for reception drinks or from the bar, drawing room or dining room. The wedding breakfast can take place in the elegant, panelled ballroom, which seats up to forty or the dining room, which seats up to twenty-eight. If you prefer informal outdoor dining, a walled garden area seats twenty people. The panelled ballroom also makes a great disco /dance floor area. The romantic house was once the home of the 6th Duke and Duchess of Portland. It was also one of the set locations for the 2014 film Testament of Youth, which starred Kit Harington, Taron Egerton, Dominic West, Emily Watson, and Alicia Vikander.

Highly recommended from a wedding photographer

I had the pleasure of being the official photographer for the very first wedding at the newly renovated Cuckney House. What a fantastic addition to the local area and a beautiful and unique wedding venue. The whole house has been refurbished to a high standard and provides plenty of accommodation for family and friends. The venue and surrounding areas are the perfect backdrop to capture stunning wedding photographs. Highly recommended from a wedding photographers point of view.

What a wonderful place to hold a wedding

What a wonderful place to hold a family wedding celebration over 3 nights. I echo other comments about Ross the location manager. He has an eye for detail. We had 15 adults and a scattering of children as residents and about 35 day guests. The house and gardens were immaculate. Everything you could want, sometimes in duplicate from hot tubs and ice makers through to garden games and facilities for outside caterers. The bedroom 'retreats' and various lounges are top notch.

Cuckney House is truly a gem. Highly recommend

We recently had a wonderful family gathering at Cuckney House over the weekend, and it was an unforgettable experience. Every part of our stay was top-notch. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the grass was cut to perfection. Ross, the hospitality manager, was amazing. He was always ready to help when needed and truly went above and beyond. Everything about our stay was fantastic, from the beautifully maintained grounds to the comfortable accommodations. Cuckney House is truly a gem.

Great venue!

As a wedding photographer, I had the opportunity to work here. This is one of my favourite wedding venues in the UK. Beautiful and charming venue which gives a great opportunity for creating amazing couples portraits. It's a perfect wedding venue that I would recommend to any couple.

A beautiful and unique wedding venue.

I had the pleasure of being the official photographer for the very first wedding at the newly renovated Cuckney House in September 2023. What a fantastic addition to the local area and a beautiful and unique wedding venue. The whole house has been refurbished to a high standard and provides plenty of accommodation for family and friends. The venue can accommodate weddings of various sizes and the gardens and surrounding areas are the perfect backdrop to capture stunning wedding photographs.
