The Lancrigg was the perfect wedding venue for us.
From start to finish the team were friendly, professional, and so helpful.
We first viewed the venue in October 2024 and loved the character of the property, the stunning views and location in the middle of the Grasmere fells.
We booked the venue for exclusive use which was perfect for our small wedding of 32 people.
On the weekend of the wedding the staff couldn’t have been more helpful. The evening buffet on the Friday night, and the excellent cooked breakfasts on the Saturday and Sunday morning made things so easy for all of our guests.
On the day itself we were incredibly lucky with not a cloud in the sky. Again the staff were so helpful in setting up the outdoor ceremony area, helping us decide the final layout of the tables for the wedding breakfast.
Getting married under the beautiful tree overlooking the fells with our closest family and friends was such a special experience which we will treasure forever.
We were able to go for a walk with all of our guests to the new bridge, and then continue on up to Easedale waterfall. We love walking in the Lakes, and having all of this so close to the venue was amazing for us.
The Lancrigg team worked so well with all our suppliers, and having access to the whole house to celebrate and relax after the events of the day was so special.
On the Sunday we were able to take our guests up Helm Crag which was the perfect length of walk for the day after the wedding – what other wedding venue has a Wainwright next door to it!
Our wedding weekend at the Lancrigg was perfect and we wouldn’t change a thing about it.
Thank you so much to all of the team for helping make it such a special weekend.

It took us a long time to find the perfect place for our wedding, with our long list of needs, but then we discovered The Lancrigg. From the moment we stepped through the door and were greeted by Simon, we knew it was the right choice. The house itself is a beautiful country retreat nestled in the Lake District, and it immediately felt like home. Simon and Alison were wonderfully flexible, ensuring all of our expectations were met and more. The on-site team were an absolute joy to work with; friendly, attentive, and full of energy. They created the perfect atmosphere and kept our guests celebrating late into the night.

We knew the Lancrigg was our dream wedding venue when we were shown around by Simon. Simon is the most relaxed and calming person you will ever meet and that is what you need for a wedding. What drew us to the Lancrigg was the beautiful surroundings, the ability to have the whole place to offer as a place to stay for some of our guests and the option to get married inside or outside (dependent on the weather). Once we had chosen the venue, we had regular contact with Alison regarding timings and suppliers at our wedding. They do have recommended suppliers to help you to start your wedding planning. As a couple, we wanted a more personal wedding and to do most things ourselves and the Lancrigg are probably one of the fewer venues to allow you to personalise your day. The hotel rooms were beautiful, very clean and the cooked breakfast was a major hit alongside the buffet the night before. The pizzas that they cooked as our evening food were commented on as the best pizza people had ever tasted- even one of our friends said this after getting back from Italy! Simon allowed us to set up the venue ourselves and no ask was too much, he was on hand the whole time- even carrying a brolly to help me walk down the aisle without looking soaked. Despite being a wedding venue, we felt like we were the only people to ever get married there. It is not a one in one out type of venue. The staff make you feel like the most special couple and ensure that you have the most special wedding day. Thank you to Simon, Alison and the Lancrigg team for creating the most special day for us, our family and our friends. We cannot wait to visit again one day.

The Lancrigg is truly a special place, the perfect wedding venue. If you’re reading this because you’re thinking of booking it, don’t hesitate for a second. I’m not sure words can really do it justice, but I’ll try! We feel so so lucky that this magical corner of the Lake District was ours for the weekend in July 2025. Every single member of the team was wonderful, kind, enthusiastic, and such a joy to plan with. They embraced all of our ideas, added their own thoughtful suggestions, and made sure everything came together perfectly. The venue itself is breathtaking. It’s clearly a real labour of love which you can sense the moment you arrive. Even on our first visit, on a drizzly February day, we knew instantly it was the place for us. The accommodation is excellent, and the beautiful walk down into Grasmere is an added treat for guests. We are also deeply grateful for how supportive and flexible the team were when we had to rearrange our wedding for health reasons. Their kindness meant the world to us, and it’s something we’ll never forget. We can’t wait to return in the years ahead and watch The Lancrigg continue to flourish. It will always hold a very special place in our hearts.

We had the most wonderful wedding at Lancrigg last weekend. It was the only venue we visited and even on a grey day in January we could tell it was going to be perfect for us. The exclusive use and rooms available meant our family could stay and make a full weekend out of it and the fell views were just the icing on the cake. The staff are super friendly and relaxed and the thought and craftsmanship that have gone into the barn, whiskey bar, house and grounds are really impressive. We were blessed with a lovely sunny weekend and took our guests for a swim in Easedale Tarn on the Sunday – this is a stunning Lake District venue surrounded by fells and now our forever happy place.
