WEDDINGS
VOWS & VISTAS Say “I Do” in sublime style at Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa; a unique wedding venue where the inside and outside space blend seamlessly to create the ultimate natural backdrop to your big day. Welcome to your very own luxury lakeside retreat where romance, natural beauty and stunning photo opportunities surround you and your guests at every angle. Take your vows under our beautiful garden gazebo overlooking the Cat Bells Fell and the tranquil waterscapes of Lake Derwentwater and Watendlath Beck. Enjoy a cocktail and canapé reception in our delightful Conservatory. And for something extra special, hop on the nearby launch for a sunset cruise around Lake Derwentwater.
B E AU T I F U L S PAC E S At Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa, our land and waterscape views are truly world class. Our spaces reflect the indoor/outdoor nature of what makes us unique. This makes for the most memorable of backdrops to your special day. If you’re tying the knot in high summer, our Garden Gazebo offers an outdoor ceremony idyll with lush emerald-hued lawn underfoot and panoramic vistas of the Cat Bells Fell and Lake Derwentwater. Turn it into a magical oasis at dusk with fairy lights and fresh flowers. The Derwent Suite can accommodate up to 120 guests for an elegant sit down wedding breakfast and up to 140 for an evening reception. Decked out with stunning chandeliers and customisable LED lighting, you can expect a warm and inviting atmosphere. Our Conservatory makes a beautiful, light-flooded space for a welcome drink and canapés reception. Opening out to 200m2 of outdoor terraces with views to the magnificent Lodore Falls situated in our grounds, it’s a great space to mingle with your guests.
CELEBRATORY DRINKING & DINING The right menu, wine and cocktails offset any celebration to perfection. At Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa, we offer you and your guests a wide range of culinary options to satisfy all tastes, from delectable canapés on the terrace and four course wedding breakfasts in the Derwent Suite, through to buffets, hearty hog-roasts, and street food under the starlit sky. It’s all right here. Our delightful Conservatory is the ideal space for post ceremony drinks and congratulatory catch-ups with family and friends. Our Sommeliers and Mixologists have expertly created a list of wines and cocktails to perfectly pair with your chosen menu. Mizu; our sleek pan-Asian restaurant is the perfect place to dine on sashimi or sushi the night before or after your celebration. While our 2 AA rosette Lake View restaurant serves the finest locally-sourced produce in an imaginative menu. Raise a glass and feast with us here at Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa.
