18 Year Anniversary
My wife and I had our wedding reception at the Dunkenhalgh 18 years ago. We decided to return for a night away on the evening of the 24th Feb as a late Valentine's day treat. I called in advance and spoke to Chuti who was incredibly helpful. When I explained the reason for the visit she was eager to help make the occasion extra special. The staff in the hotel were all keen to see pictures from our wedding day and could not have done anymore to make us feel welcome.

Wedding Anniversary
Surprised my wife for a we night here for our wedding anniversary. What a beautiful place this is, myself and my wife really enjoyed it and loved spending the afternoon pampering ourselves in the spa. Room was amazing with some we anniversary touches we got done including the swans and petals on the bed for us which was so romantic and also wrote happy anniversary on the big mirror with some love hearts around it which was lovely. We are already thinking about booking for next year's anniversary

1st Anniversary Return
We returned to the hotel to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary, we were welcomed at the reception wonderfully. The room was superb, spacious and modern. We booked an evening meal on the Sunday night, this was 100% amazing. We booked in for treatments and afternoon tea at the spa on the Monday, the treatments were amazing and the ladies who did the treatments were superb.
