Capable of hosting weddings of up to an average of 120 people, Bolton Castle in Wensleydale, Yorkshire North is the perfect place for couples seeking a civil ceremony with a touch of regality.

Despite calling twice in advance of our arrival ( our arrival was late due to snow and ice on the roads) and arriving at 4.45pm- 15 minutes before the official closing time at 5pm- the castle was locked up and empty upon our arrival. We had also left our phone number to which they had said that they would call us back in there was a problem with our later than originally agreed arrival. They never called before closing up the castle in well in advance of the official closing time.Despite calling twice in advance of our arrival ( our arrival was late due to snow and ice on the roads) and arriving at 4.45pm- 15 minutes before the official closing time at 5pm- the castle was locked up and empty upon our arrival.

FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?

An English/French wedding. It started at 10am and it was unique and elegant from start to finish. The guess arrived through the portcullis and had tea and croissants on arrival. There were touches of both nationalities throughout and the Castle was beautifully decorated with garlands of foliage. The wedding breakfast was a gourmet and had five courses, again complimenting both the English and French elements. The day was relaxed and very special and was shortlisted for a competition.
