Weddings
Welcome to our website dedicated to weddings and celebrations at Winder hall Country House. If you are looking for a really intimate, romantic and personal place to celebrate a wedding, renewal of vows, blessing, anniversary, christening or naming ceremony or any special occasion, Winder Hall could be just what you are looking for.
Nestled in the vale of Lorton, near Cockermouth in the Lake District, our historic Country House has recently been described as a “hidden gem” and “secret treasure”, and we’d love the opportunity to show you round and hear about your dreams for your special occasion. Why not give us a call to arrange a no-obligation chat over afternoon tea?
We don’t offer a wedding “package” as we believe that your wedding day wishes and dreams are totally individual — you let us know what you want and we organize it for you. That way, your celebration really is unique for you and special for us as well.

5 reasons why you might like to choose us:
1. Stunning Settings
Winder Hall provides a beautiful backdrop for your wedding, from the rolling hills and 16th century architecture, to the exquisite dining room and the spectacular gardens. This venue not only looks stunning, impressing you and your guests, but also provide a whole range of perfect photo opportunities, capturing your big day for evermore.
2. Experienced Staff
There is nothing worse than being pestered by staff all day, or similarly, feeling like you’ve been left to your own devices. That’s why our staff are highly trained and experienced in handling weddings perfectly. So you’ll always have exactly what you need, when you need it, without really noticing we’re there at all.
3. Unique Weddings
We don’t do wedding packages because we know that your wedding is something personal that simply can’t be packaged. For that reason you’ll only ever get a wedding that’s completely tailored to your requirements, down to every little detail and beyond. So as you paint the picture of how you imagine your day, we’ll turn it into reality and make sure you enjoy every minute of working with us along the way!
4. Mouth-Watering Catering
We can provide you with a wide range of mouth-watering cuisine, from an elegantly formal wedding breakfast, to large buffets and even a hog roast or traditional fish and chips! We only use the freshest, locally sourced produce ensuring every mouthful you and your guests enjoy is bursting with flavour.

You might not believe it when you come for a chat with him and he’s in his “day” clothes, but he scrubs up very well and looks very splendid in his formal red tailcoat!
