Reviews

Stunning venue and location for our dream wedding! We loved the character and history of the venue and exploring the beautiful grounds, especially the meadows. Staff were outstanding - with the planning and on the day - nothing was too much trouble and they went beyond what they needed to do every time. Our Michelin star tasting menu was incredible and we have really special memories of our big day. Thank you Askham Hall, you knocked it out the park!

Hannah and Michele, 15.06.21 “They went beyond what they needed to"

Askham Hall is the most beautiful setting, we loved the area already but couldn’t have anticipated how comfortable & welcome we would be made to feel throughout planning and the weekend of our wedding. The staff are excellent, as you would expect given the Michelin star restaurant, but there is nothing stuffy or formal. We could not have asked for anywhere better to celebrate our wedding. A special mention to Jenny, who executed the day with great care & precision, she & her team are wonderful

We had the most magical day we could have ever dreamed of, and after the coronacoaster that led us to it we can honestly say we would not change a thing. The wedding team were so supportive throughout and attentive on the day and every single member of staff at Askham Hall went over and beyond. The weekend from start to finish was the best service we have ever experienced and the best experience of our lives as a whole. We can't wait to visit Askham Hall again in the very near future!

India and Ricky, 10.07.21 “Coronacoaster!”

Third time lucky and our day finally came! Given the circumstances of the last year and a half it was a difficult planning process but Askham Hall were amazing throughout. Our day was just perfect from start to finish. The staff were great and the food was absolutely amazing. The team that were there to help set up and clean up were super helpful and the process was made so easy. We really couldn't recommend Askham Hall enough. Incredible in every way!
