Weddings at Storrs Hall

Every bride deserves unashamed luxury

Storrs Hall provides one of the most stunning wedding venue locations you can imagine. This beautiful restored Georgian Mansion affords an extraordinary backdrop for a truly idyllic wedding. The drawing room, or our wonderful reception hall with its rotunda and balcony can provide elegant, yet informal settings for drinks and canapés. And with exceptional views across Lake Windermere, fantastic lawns and gardens plus sumptuous interiors, the photo opportunities are endless.

The dining room at Storrs has unparalleled views over the lake and seats up to 70 people for a three or four course formal luncheon with coffee and petit fours. Using our overflow restaurant, numbers can be increased to 94 guests. Innovative and award winning chef Will Jones is happy to meet with you to discuss your ideas and requirements, from canapés to three or four course luncheon or a more informal buffet style wedding breakfast.

Our experienced wedding co-ordinator is dedicated to the planning and smooth running of your wedding and will be delighted to assist with even the smallest details. Why not arrange a no-obligation viewing of the hotel and facilities, and let us talk you through the possibilities for your very special day. We can also assist you in finding your photographer, florist, musicians, boat hire for a trip on the Lake (from the hotel jetty), vintage coach hire, cake, bridal favours, beauticians, hairdresser, etc;. all the help you want to make your wedding memorable.

The Hall is available for evening receptions or celebrations either within the hotel or, for larger numbers, a marquee erected in the extensive grounds. Such an event , as well as certain periods during the year, necessitates reserving the entire hotel for exclusive use for 1 or 2 nights; our thirty stunning guestrooms provide the epitome of luxury for your guests.
