Description

Set in the centre of a historic hamlet, nestled within the foothills of Yorkshire’s South Pennines, our beautifully refurbished 18th century country inn offers superb food, a stunning setting for your photographs, impeccable service and unrivalled attention to every detail. We have two venues on offer at The Woodman Inn and are fully licensed to hold civil ceremonies, and for your special day, you will have exclusive use of our intimate wedding venue, beautifully tended gardens and accommodation for your guests. Country Room: Our intimate Country Room is the perfect venue for those wanting to celebrate their special day in an idyllic woodland surrounding, rivalling any country pub wedding venue in Yorkshire. Our Country Room, located within our Country Inn, is suited for intimate weddings of up to 60 guests. Garden Room: The Garden Room, located in our secluded woodland gardens with gorgeous glass marquee and adjoining Orangery reception area, is more suited for weddings of up to 150 guests. This is set in its own private part of the venue and feels very much an exclusive, peaceful & romantic area. The stunningly beautiful gardens flanked by a lovely stream and woodland really does create a gorgeous setting for a wedding. The tranquil hamlet of Thunderbridge is rich in history, plentiful with wildlife, and such a peaceful woodland location. We have plenty of parking for your guests and are situated close to Huddersfield & not too far from Sheffield. Known by the locals as “God’s own county,” you and your guests will enjoy complete privacy in this rustic haven of unspoilt Yorkshire countryside. This idyllic location truly is the perfect setting for the most romantic of weddings and we are fully dog friendly.

The BEST day!
We recently got married in the marquee at the Woodman Inn & we couldn’t have asked for a better day! Ben & Nadia were first class with their help throughout the process and even had a little shot (Toffee Vodka) with us! Really down to earth people. All of the staff were amazing & accommodating with their service from the dinner service to the drinks orders throughout the day/ night! The food was exceptional. BIG compliments to the chefs! The Beef Daube was to die for. Would highly recommend this venue. Keep up the top work!

The Woodman were amazing - the whole experience & day itself was perfect! We had the best day ever - especially being able to have the ceremony outside in the beautiful gardens was so lovely. The food is delicious and was enjoyed by everyone. We would recommend The Woodman to everyone - thank you team :)

Our perfect day
We had the most perfect wedding day at The Woodman Inn. We used the Garden Room for the ceremony, the wedding breakfast and the evening. The room looked absolutely perfect for every stage of the day. The team at The Woodman were amazing throughout the day and from the moment we booked. They were extremely responsive and helpful with any questions and requests that we had. The day ran so smoothly, this was down to Nadia and Ben our wedding organisers who couldn't have done anymore for us. They were so friendly, helpful and professional. We really do recommend using here for your wedding day, we couldn't have imagined it any better.

The perfect day ,🖤
We both want to say a big thankyou for everything! There aren't enough words to describe how grateful we are for ensuring we had the perfect day! You really are the best! Jordan and Nadia thankyou for dealing with my tears from day 1, you made a difficult situation so much easier nothing was too much trouble, Nadia I want to thank you for answering all my questions and concerns quickly and reassuringly that everything was in hand (and it really was). Jordan you are the Aperol king! Ha xx Everything about the day was just perfect you captured my vision perfectly and we had so many people compliment the food and how tasty it was especially the cheese toasties! They went down a treat! We are so glad the unfortunate situation led us to you guys, it truly shows how much you all love your jobs and how making it special for couples is the most important thing! We would recommend you all in heartbeat! Keep been the best of the best and we can't wait to come back and see you all! Thankyou again I'll get the pictures over to you tonight and I'll post on reviews on the sites ❤️ Leanne and Alan xxx

The team were great!
It was no surprise to us that our wedding day went incredibly smoothly without any hiccups (even when we overran on timings due to speeches etc). The room and the gardens looked amazing, the food was phenomenal (even for 120 people) and the staff were extremely attentive, kind and polite. We had our two dogs with us on our wedding day and they were treated like royalty by everyone at the Woodman! They were allowed in the venue and they were given the cutest doggy package with a dog bed, food, treats and a ball each. Nadia and the team were so helpful with our dogs on the day.

We had the best day of our lives
We cannot recommend highly enough!!!! The team here, including the owners, the manager, the staff, are utterly amazing. We had the best day of our lives and everything was more than we could even have dreamed. We were in good hands from the very beginning and treated so kindly every second of the way. You will never regret holding your wedding or party here. We will be booking again for both of our next big birthdays, as well as coming back for drinks and dinner constantly. Sending so much love to you all for everything you have done for us, Mr & Mrs Brook xxxx

Such a blast!!
We got married at the Woodman Inn in May and the venue & the day itself was perfect in every way. The setting is perfect and all the staff are wonderful. We can’t thank Nadia, Jordan & Ben enough for all hey did on the day and in the build up, and honestly it felt like having three more friends there. They were such friendly faces to have around and nothing was too much trouble. A special shout out to Guy & Mikey who tolerated the chaos of our friends and family right up to last orders! Two absolute credits to the Woodman team!! The food was unbelievably good, everyone kept telling me how much they enjoyed it and how great the menu was! Everything from the canapés to the wedding breakfast to the evening food was perfect, and rightly raved about by our guests!

The Amazing Woodman Inn
From the first time we walked into The Woodman Inn we knew it was a special place - from the location, staff, food and ambience. Our first wedding meeting was with Ben who showed us around the venue, he was so welcoming and professional . He listened and offered advice when needed. The whole experience of planning with Ben and nearer to the date with Nadia was easy and a pleasure. So many guests commented about the amazing food and venue. Nothing has been too much trouble for them and our wedding was an amazing day!! We both thank the Woodman Team for an incredible day from start to finish.

Absolutely stunning place ❤️
We couldn’t have asked for a better venue for our wedding than The Woodman Inn. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning surroundings—beautiful, elegant, and the perfect backdrop for our special day. The staff were exceptional, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was flawless. They took care of every detail, allowing us to enjoy our day without any worries. Their professionalism and warmth truly made a difference. And the food—absolutely amazing! Our guests are still raving about the delicious meals, from the canapaes to the dessert. Everything was prepared to perfection, with flavors that delighted everyone. We highly recommend The Woodman Inn to any couple looking for a dream wedding location. It’s a place where your vision comes to life with the support of an outstanding team. Thank you for making our day unforgettable!

Simply the most amazing day
Could not recommend The Woodman Inn enough! We had our wedding in the country room in March, and the day was perfect! The setting and venue is fanastic, the staff were amazing and made the process of booking and planning a wedding in 4 months easy! On the day the staff could not do enough for us, and made the day flow steamlessly. Last but not least, the food was outstanding and all our guests still 5 months on rave about the food(i highly recommend the garlic mushrooms). Thank you to the team for all their help and support at making our dream reality become a reality (if not better). Also, an added bonus of the venue being dog friendly, so we could have our 4-legged friend there on the day too ☺️
