How It Works
Three simple parts – your ceremony, your celebration meal, and your accommodation. Mix and match to suit you.
Whether it's just the two of you and your witnesses, or a gathering of fifteen, we'll put together a personalised quote based on what feels right for your day.
Your Ceremony
Say your vows in our barn’s Oval Room, The Farmhouse Rose Garden, our Fairy Bridge over the stream or The Farmhouse Dining Room. Surrounded by 200 acres of private countryside, it’s just you and the people who matter most.
Your base package includes a glass of Champagne for everyone, exclusive use of our Dressing Room, our in-house photographer and content creator to capture it all.
Your Celebration Meal
Your wedding breakfast is prepared by Tom's Table, our award-winning partners bringing French-inspired bistro cooking to your celebration. Tom sources the best of Lancashire and the Ribble Valley, creating seasonal menus that feel celebratory without being fussy.
Three courses with wine, served in our cosy snug or farmhouse. We'll look after you the morning of with a continental breakfast, and send you off the next day with hampers delivered to your door.
Your Accommodation
Our five luxury lodges are tucked away in the grounds, each sleeping two. Book as many as you need for your party, from a single lodge for just the two of you, to all five for a group of ten.
Or take over The Farmhouse for a fully private experience – a characterful 17th-century home sleeping up to twelve, with the option to add Coach House Cottage for fifteen. Your own kitchen, dining room, rose garden, and wood-fired pizza oven for relaxed evenings with your guests.
