Description

Our Manor House dates back to 1770 and is bursting with quirky charm and character. You and your loved ones will take over the Manor and its 19 en-suite bedrooms, 4 kitchens and 4 reception rooms, from Friday to Sunday, giving you a whole weekend of celebrations, rather than just one day. It is so wonderful to be able to spend time with your family and friends surrounding your wedding day and you will create memories to last a lifetime. We are licensed to hold civil ceremonies at a number of locations around the grounds; choose from the stunning front lawn with views across the North Yorkshire countryside or our pretty courtyard with its Oak framed Lych Gate - the perfect place to meet your loved one to say "I do" in front of your family and friends. The Russet Barn: Newly launched for Autumn 2022 is our Russet Ceremony Barn; the barn features a vaulted ceiling with incredible whalebone, oak framed arches. The barn began life as home to newborn Spring lambs at Hornington’s farm, now stylishly converted to welcome the birth of new love stories, offering a characterful and unforgettable setting to wedding couples starting a lifetime of happiness together. The Dining Barn: The dining barn is primed and designed for sophisticated rustic events. This intriguing space has been carefully crafted into a charming blank canvas where wedding couples can fuse their tastes with the building's character. Here, up to 150 seated guests can enjoy a wedding feast before breaking out for a lively reception of up to 200. With a team of Wedding Coordinators who will be on hand from your first viewing until you leave us as newlyweds, and for every want and need in-between, Hornington Manor is the most magical place to be married in North Yorkshire!

The best day

Thanks so much to Jo and all the team at hornington for giving us the best day we could ever have imagined! The venue speaks for itself - simply beautiful. Being able to have the venue for the whole weekend made so much more of an impact than we anticipated! It was so nice to spend time with our closest friends and family the day before. Jo is fabulous and couldn’t do enough for us from the organisation beforehand (and the multiple COVID rearrangements!) to making sure the day ran smoothly without needing our input at all.

My dream wedding

We got married at Hornington last year and with all things considering we had the most amazing and perfect day. Joanne and her team have been so good with us from the moment we stepped on their beautiful farm to view the venue. She’s been at our beck and call throughout covid and when we got the news our wedding was two days before restrictions were meant to be lifted (which never happened anyway!) she helped mend my breaking heart. I thought my dream wedding was falling to pieces but she made us feel happy enough to keep our original date and I’m so glad we did. We’ve had so many lovely comments from people about the wedding, the guys working there and the Manor House where we all stayed for the weekend. It really was a home from home and will forever hold a special place in my heart. Thank you so much for getting us through our covid wedding and making it everyone we’d dreamed. Ash & Tom

Amazing from start to finish

We visited lots of venues before Hornington, but when we arrived we knew this was our place. Jo and the team were helpful & friendly throughout. When the dreaded pandemic hit, things were touch & go but Jo helped us rearrange our date no bother. The venue speaks for itself, but for us the fact it was ours for the weekend and we were able to extend celebrations with our guests from Friday to Sunday was a big bonus. The grounds, manor and barn are all an amazing canvas to make your own too. The new huts are a lovely edition too! The whole experience was smooth, well organised and no trouble from start to finish despite a global pandemic and we can't thank Jo, Nick and the team enough for that!

Fabulous venue

We had the best day we could have wished for at Honrnington Manor. The staff were exceptionally helpful and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble from the moment we booked right through to the end. Jo was always just a photo call away and supported and guided us through the planning process. The venue itself is stunning and isolated giving us the full privacy we wanted for our big day. I can't thank the team enough for how special and memorable they made our day. It was simply PERFECT

Our elaborate 1 year wedding anniversary

Having had our intimate 15 person wedding at Hornington Manor there was no doubt that with Covid restrictions lifted we had to return to have a full scale celebration! The venue is stunning, having the farm house for the whole weekend creates an atmosphere of celebration and relaxation. Joanne and her team could not do enough for us, minimising the stress of planning the weddings but also in ensuring the day itself ran smoothly. The wedding barn is beautiful and the mixture of rustic farm and Christmas festivity was the perfect combo. We can't recommend this venue highly enough!

Couldn’t have asked for better

Hornington manor were absolutely incredible from start to finish on our wedding planning journey and from the moment we arrived to set up. Jo helped us coordinate everything and after one brief of what we wanted we didn’t have to worry about a thing on the day. It really helped for the best day of our lives, we wouldn’t have changed a thing!

Hornington Manor - The venue of all Bride and Groom's dreams!

My husband, our 3 months old baby and I had the most magical three days at Hornington Manor. We can not thank Joanne and the team at Hornington Manor enough for all their help and support on the day. We absolutely loved our stay, our guests were very complimentary of the venue both entertainment rooms, The Gallery and The Barn and also the fantastic quality of the on-site accommodation. Joanne especially was very friendly, approachable, always illing to help and always available at the end of the phone. We had to change our wedding date x3 due to COVID restrictions and Joanne made the whole process very stress free for us. She was very supportive and understanding in such difficult times. We highly recommend this venue to anyone considering it, not only for the amazing experience on the day but for the great support you receive leading up to it in the planning stages. Thank you again to Joanne and the team for making our wedding celebrations so special x Melissa and Daniel

Breathtaking 🥰❤️

This venue truly is absolutely stunning. we knew this was the venue for us the minute we drove down the drive way and set eyes on it , met by Joanne it really was love at 1st sight down to every detail . Even though we had to change dates due to covid the team worked seamlessly to make sure we were relaxed and taken care of with absolutely no stress for us . Our wedding weekend was even more then I could of dreamt of with every guest commenting and how beautiful it was , to have Hornington exclusively for 3 days was amazing and gave all our guests the chance to actually relax and enjoy a wedding Mini break , without the pressure of it being limited to 1 day . A huge added bonus is your hiring just the venue so this gives you free range to use any caterers , venue décor ect to whatever your budget as this was one of our main pet hates about wedding venues that your limited to what they want you to have not what you as a couple would like or what represent's you both. I honestly feel so lucky and privileged to of spent the best day of my life at Hornington manor and I can't thank Joanne and the team enough .
