Welcome to Shortflatt Tower, one of Northumberland’s most beautiful country houses set in idyllic surroundings with well-tended walled gardens and ancient woodland. Set in a private estate, we offer comfortable elegance in an area of natural beauty. An awe inspiring wedding location and exclusive use estate, steeped in history, our Tower and grounds present a picturesque backdrop to your perfect day. Delicately blending tradition and contemporary flourishes, nature and grandeur. The estate which dates back to 1257 sets the stage for the most memorable occasion of your lives. Accompanied by fairytale cottages and countryside views we strive to provide an unforgettable experience. Along the private driveway, amidst rolling green hills and ancient woodlands our walled gardens and outdoor areas reflect our passion for the nature we nurture. Our estate is nothing short of magical, and we strive to frame moments to last a lifetime, from welcoming the bridal party with use of our exclusive spa, all the way to your first dance as a married couple surrounded by your closest friends and family. Every moment is precious, and we’ve perfected our offering over seven hundred and fifty years. With numerous backdrops, textures, and colours our grounds provide the perfect stage for capturing your day on photo and film. You have the choice of where and how your day plays out, utilising the full estate for your ceremony. Seat sixty within the Tower itself or up to one hundred and fifty in the gardens for your memorable vows. To complete the experience, Northumberland's newest stand alone function room is now just a few finishing touches from completion. Situated within the estate, this organic structure blurs the line between the ancient woodland, the historic grounds, and your special day. The ideal housing for your ceremony, wedding breakfast and evening reception, make memories without compromise with up to one hundred and fifty by day, and two hundred and fifty by night.
