Samlesbury Hall

Our wedding day at Samlesbury Hall on December 2, 2023, was nothing short of a fairytale. This stunning, black and white medieval house, dating back to 1325, provided a breathtaking backdrop for our special day. Despite the cold, frosty weather, the sun shone brilliantly, adding to the magical atmosphere. The star of our experience was Sharon, our wedding coordinator and manager of the hall. From the very first meeting, her warmth, passion, and dedication were evident. She ensured that every detail was perfect, making us feel that our day was as important to her as it was to us. Her high standards and meticulous attention to detail were mirrored by her team, leaving no room for error. Rebecca, Sharon's second-in-command, was a behind-the-scenes miracle worker. Her seamless orchestration of the day's events made her our guardian angel. Chester, the night manager, was exceptional, especially when he adeptly moved our first dance forward for my husband's grandmother. His attentiveness and care were evident throughout the evening. Special mentions go to Jenny, who was instrumental in the lead-up to the wedding, and Maria, who brought life and laughter to the early morning preparations. Lynn's ever-smiling presence in the office was also greatly appreciated. The food and drink were another highlight. Everything was served promptly, hot, and delicious, with the staff continuously refilling glasses. The venue's facilities, including ample parking and the cozy gatehouse accommodation and on-site huts, added to the overall comfort of our guests and us. What sets Samlesbury Hall apart is its exclusivity on your wedding day, combined with its vibrant daily activities like fairs, cafes, and tours. This means we can revisit and relive our memories, which is a rare feature for wedding venues. In summary, Samlesbury Hall is a venue where the unpredictable English weather doesn't dampen the spirit of a wedding. With its exquisite indoor spaces and stunning outdoor backdrop, it's perfect for any weather conditions. We wholeheartedly recommend Samlesbury Hall to anyone looking for a venue that offers beauty, history, and impeccable service.

We loved the grounds and the atmosphere in the hall. The staff were great and we loved the idea of having our guests stay in the shepherds’ huts. The whole day just ran so smoothly and was everything that we could have hoped for. The Samlesbury Hall team were fabulous throughout the process including emails, meet ups and then leading the day. The room looked stunning too with a gorgeous set up by our florist and the team. We had the most perfect day. Photography - Laura Duggleby

The hall on the day was breathtaking and we had some many people tell us it was the most beautiful venue they had been to. We truly had the most amazing wedding and it honestly exceeded every expectation we could have had. We literally gasped when we first saw how the dining hall had been decorated.
