About
Setting

Whitworth Estate is a new wedding venue in a private deer park in the heart of northern England. It was created by the team behind Newton Hall and Le Petit Chateau, two of the UK’s premier, multi-award-winning wedding venues. This intimate Grade II listed country house’s historic splendour and bold, romantic, and fantastical interior provide a unique setting for an enchanted wedding.

Open now, be the first to have your big day at Whitworth, with a full diary of peak dates available.

Accommodation

Guests can choose from 29 gorgeous boutique bedrooms, sophisticated suites, and charming retreats within the 73-acre estate. The luxurious accommodation is one of the standout features of this Durham venue.

Food & Drink

Memorable food and drink to be shared and enjoyed is the heart and soul of Whitworth Estate. Their chefs create remarkable feasts influenced by their surroundings, using the best of what’s available from the kitchen garden and local producers. Whether you desire something tastefully traditional or daringly different, their in-house chefs deliver everything from vintage tea parties to nine-course fine dining banquets. Anything is possible so long as it tastes good!

FAQs
Do you have more than one wedding ceremony on the same day?

We are delighted to say that when you book your wedding at Whitworth Estate, you are the only wedding party that day.

What is included in terms of the table set-up?

Your package includes all crockery, cutlery, glassware, and chrome table number stands. We can also supply white napkins and cloths if desired. An external room decorating company (or you) would need to provide any centrepieces, runners, or placemats (if desired).

What are your minimum numbers and pre-spend required to hire Whitworth Estate?

We have incredible deals for every budget! We have designed 11 price levels to accommodate you and your guests' needs.

Can we stay on-site the night before our wedding?

Yes, check-in is from 5pm, and check-out is when you walk down the aisle.

Do you supply a Master of Ceremonies?

Yes! As part of your package, we are happy to provide one of our charming gents to guide you through your day.
