- LLucy G.12/06/2024Despite everything, it was perfectDespite everything, it was perfectWe are so glad we choose Temple Newsam as our ceremony venue, and couldn't have asked more of them particularly given the ongoing pandemic. The venue is exquisite and looks incredible from every angle. We've had many compliments on just how stunning it is. But choosing a venue isn't just about the setting - the staff are crucial. And we couldn't recommend the staff at Temple Newsam any more highly. They have been professional, courteous and understanding.

- CChristine M.12/06/2024Thank youThank youThe gardeners work so hard, we have been coming to Temple Newsam every year for over 30 years and are surprised every year. The beautiful wall garden and benches allow us to sit and enjoy the results of the gardeners' hard work. We are amazed at the hard work that such a small group of gardeners do for Temple Newsam. We are so grateful and want to say a really big thank you to all three of you.The gardeners work so hard, we have been coming to Temple Newsam every year for over 30 years and are surprised every year.
