Our couples love...

Cumbria is a beautiful county in the North West of England and home to the world famous Lake District National Park. As you can imagine, there are many beautiful wedding venues that perfectly complement the natural beauty of Cumbria, many of them set near iconic lakes and landmarks. Plus, Cumbria is easily accessible by a number of railway lines and motorways and is located within two hours of major cities like Liverpool, Glasgow and Edinburgh.

What type of Wedding Venues can be found in Cumbria?

You’ll be happy to know that Cumbria has an abundance of wedding venues of varying types, so you should be able to find a location for your wedding that suits both your style and your budget.

From picturesque barns such as Eden Barn in Kirkby Stephen to idyllic country houses like Askham Hall in Penrith and contemporary hotels such as The Grange Hotel in Grange-over-Sands. There is also a great selection of dry hire wedding venues like New House Farm in Cockermouth, which are perfect for couples who want a more bespoke or DIY wedding.

As you can imagine, with The Lake District being a key part of Cumbria’s identity many wedding venues are set on the banks of famous lakes such as Lake Windermere or Ullswater and some even feature their own private jetty which make for a truly idyllic wedding photo opportunity!

Things to consider when booking a wedding venue in Cumbria

While Cumbria is a beautiful and picturesque county, you’ll want to consider a few key things before you book! Firstly, accessibility for your guests. With many venues located in very rural areas, it is worth considering how you and your guests will travel to your venue. It may be worth looking into hiring some transport that can get your guests from a more central location to your wedding venue, especially if it is a bit tricky to get to or has limited parking.

Next, consider the guest accommodation available and the time of year you will be getting married. While there are loads of self-catered stays and hotels in this county, it's worth remembering that Cumbria and the Lakes are a very popular staycation and tourist destination in the UK, so accommodation can get booked up in popular areas very quickly for school breaks and major holidays such as Christmas. It is worth either booking a venue that has accommodation on site for your wedding guests or booking well in advance to allow your guests the time to find a place to stay nearby.
