Where History, Romance, and Legacy Meet
Lancrigg is more than a wedding venue—it’s a place where history and love intertwine. This Grade II listed country house, nestled on the edge of Grasmere, has long been a sanctuary for the great minds of poetry, literature and science.

With roots stretching back to the 1600s, Lancrigg has been shaped by remarkable residents, including Sir John Richardson, the famed Arctic explorer who sought solace here after his daring expeditions. Every stone, oak beam and breathtaking view holds a story—one of adventure, poetry, and deep connection.
