Further info & directions
Additional details: At Consall Hall & Gardens we pride ourselves on being one of the most flexible venues that you will find, we understand that every wedding is unique and we can adapt our venue and services to accommodate a wide variety of requests.
As well as being able to hold your ceremony in our function room "the Halcyon Room" we are also licensed to hold ceremonies outside in the gardens around our Pool Terrace giving you the unique opportunity for an open air wedding with an amazing backdrop of natural beauty, this option is becoming hugely popular with our clients. All our services are available outside too, so you and your guests can relax in the gardens while our waitresses mingle in between with platters of canapes and champagne whilst the gentlemen may prefer to have an ice cold beer from an oak barrel filled with ice. we can even play some background music for you or you may choose to have a string quartet play in our band stand........or maybe even arrange a treasure hunt for the young ones to explore the gardens? the options are endless......... Unlike a lot of venues we will only ever have one function on any given day, which means our entire estate (over 70 acres) is yours to enjoy.
