As a wedding photographer
As a wedding photographer, I was blown away by the beauty and grandeur of the Georgian estate set on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. The 200-acre estate boasts a large country house, renowned walled gardens, and an award-winning hotel, making it the perfect escape for a dream wedding.
The Georgian main house is a magnificent 16-bedroom property with characterful reception rooms, a private bar area, a sweeping staircase, and a garden marquee. The walled gardens with the Fig House are a stunning two-acre space that are perfect for outdoor events. The option to hire both private event spaces allows couples to plan and celebrate their dream wedding across the entire estate.
I was struck by the beauty of the main house with its classic Georgian proportions, tall white columns, and elegant decor. The walled gardens were equally impressive, with their well-manicured lawns and beautiful flora and fauna. The Fig House, with its views of the charming countryside, made for a stunning backdrop for the wedding ceremony.
The friendly and professional staff at the estate were a pleasure to work with, guiding the couple and their guests through the hidden treasure of the manor for an event that will not be forgotten. The attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the wedding, from the décor to the food and drinks, which were all of high quality and locally sourced.
Overall, I highly recommend the Georgian estate for any couple looking for a breathtaking and historic setting for their wedding. The combination of beauty, history, and excellent service make it the perfect location for a memorable and special day.
Kindest regards
