Wyresdale Weddings is a romantic barn and manor house wedding venue nestled within the breathtaking Forest of Bowland countryside. Surrounded by rolling fells, lakes and woodland, the estate combines rustic charm with elegant styling to create a truly unforgettable setting for your wedding day. Lovingly restored heritage barns provide beautiful spaces to exchange vows, enjoy your wedding breakfast and celebrate long into the evening, while cosy cottages and historic coach houses offer luxurious onsite accommodation for you and your guests.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, Wyresdale Weddings is conveniently located close to the M6, making it easily accessible from major cities across the North West and beyond.
The Wyresdale estate has undergone exciting developments for 2026. The White Barn now features stunning glazed oak doors, a sweeping staircase entrance, elegant chandeliers, underfloor heating and beautiful new flooring throughout. Outdoors, couples can say “I do” in the new walled Ceremony Garden, with the stunning Trough of Bowland as a backdrop, before celebrating in the Reception Garden complete with an oak pavilion, outdoor bar and lawn games area. The glazed Atrium offers the perfect setting to dance beneath the stars late into the night.
Wyresdale Weddings offers a collection of versatile event spaces, each full of character and charm. The Ceremony Barn provides a beautiful blank canvas for your ceremony, retaining many of its original barn features and accommodating up to 140 guests. The striking White Barn, with its soaring ceilings and exposed oak beams, creates a stunning setting for your wedding breakfast, while the contemporary Atrium offers a vibrant space for drinks receptions and evening celebrations for up to 200 guests.
