At The Coniston, your wedding is so much more than a single day – it’s an experience.
Set within our breathtaking Yorkshire estate, your celebration becomes an unforgettable getaway shared with the people you love most. From the moment you arrive to the morning you say goodbye, there are memories waiting to be made at every turn.
Our beautiful wedding spaces can accommodate celebrations from 2 to 120 guests, whether you’re dreaming of an intimate elopement for just the two of you, a celebration with your closest family and friends, or a grand Great Estate wedding.
Seating up to 60 guests, Winston’s Barn is a charming 17th-century barn filled with original character, including a vaulted ceiling and exposed wooden beams. The Garnett Room, flooded with natural daylight, provides a contemporary setting for up to 80 guests with plenty of room for that all-important grand entrance.
Or embrace the beauty of the estate with an unforgettable outdoor ceremony. Exchange vows beneath our elegant lakeside pillars, surrounded by shimmering water and rolling Yorkshire countryside, or say “I do” on our lakeview terrace with the estate as your backdrop.
With 70 bedrooms, incredible dining, our award-winning Nàdarra Spa, country pursuits and acres of beautiful Yorkshire countryside, The Coniston gives you the opportunity to bring everyone together and make a real getaway of your celebrations.
Arrive the day before and let the celebrations begin early. Check in, settle into your room and meet family and friends for dinner and drinks overlooking the estate.
Relax before the big day in our award-winning Nàdarra Spa, enjoy a treatment or thermal experience, or bring everyone together for some friendly competition with clay pigeon shooting, archery or an unforgettable Land Rover off-road experience.
Create a pre-wedding itinerary completely personal to you. Spend the day relaxing with your bridal party while others head out onto the estate for activities, before everyone comes together for dinner and drinks that evening.
Wake up already on the estate, enjoy breakfast and get ready surrounded by your favourite people. There’s no rushing between locations – everything you need is right here.
After saying “I do”, explore the estate for your photographs. From our lake and woodland to rolling countryside and gardens, there are endless opportunities to capture those once-in-a-lifetime moments.
Then it’s time to celebrate! Enjoy incredible food, raise a glass with the people you love and dance into the night. When the music ends, there are no taxis or long journeys home for resident guests – simply retreat to the comfort of the hotel.
Your Coniston experience can include 70 bedrooms, spa and treatments, clay pigeon shooting, Land Rover experiences, archery, pre-wedding dining, drinks overlooking the lake, indoor and outdoor ceremonies, locally inspired food, countryside photography, post-wedding breakfast and acres of Yorkshire countryside to explore.
Whether your perfect wedding means Champagne and spa treatments, countryside adventures, long dinners with family, cocktails overlooking the lake or simply having everyone you love together in one beautiful place, we’ll help you create an experience that feels completely yours.
Your guests aren't simply attending your wedding – they're coming away with you.
They're staying, celebrating, exploring, relaxing, eating, drinking, laughing and making memories alongside you. That’s what makes a wedding at The Coniston so special.
As a family-run venue, we understand just how personal every wedding is. We feel privileged to be trusted with such an important chapter in your story and will be there to take your hand in ours, from your first visit to the moment you say “I do” and beyond.
One estate. One unforgettable celebration. Your entire wedding experience.
