About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2022

Last update: May 2024

Heskin Hall is a countryside wedding venue nestled in the historic county of Lancashire, in Chorley, England. As one of the best examples of Tudor architecture remaining in the region, few places can match its charm and historical ambience. They offer flexible wedding packages, delectable in-house catering, and connections to the best local vendors.

Facilities and Capacity

Heskin Hall is a warm and friendly family-run venue on a mission to provide couples with as much versatility as possible. Gatherings with 200+ guests can benefit from exclusive access to both indoor and outdoor spaces. Whether you envision a rustic afternoon soiree on the lawns or a candlelit dinner full of vintage charm, the only limit is your imagination. This venue's team will quite literally roll out the red carpet when your big day arrives. Their wood-panelled ceremony room glows beneath chandeliers, creating a cosy atmosphere for exchanging your vows. Blissfully wed, you can join your guests for cocktails in the timeless lounge, complete with antique furniture, a wood-burning fireplace, and a spacious bar. Larger celebrations can then transition to the indoor reception room, accommodating up to 120 seated guests and 200 standing. You're welcome to book a marquee during the summer months and have even more flexibility with your guest list. If a woodland wedding is more your style, the surrounding forest is the perfect spot for a whimsical tipi wedding.

Services Offered

The experienced team at Heskin Hall offers versatile wedding packages and is happy to customize them according to your needs. They understand that your wedding is one of the most important days of your life, which is why they provide a dedicated wedding coordinator. They will work alongside you to help you make the most of their charming space and to put you at ease while planning. You'll also have an extensive wedding breakfast menu to consider, whether you prefer an elegant plated dinner, buffet, or simply starters and cocktails.

A perfect day

We booked our wedding for October 2024.
The staff were accommodating and flexible to our needs and were able to craft a space and setting that was exactly what we were looking for.
We paid an incredibly reasonable rate for the venue, ceremony, meal, DJ, and private use of the grounds.
We were packed up by midnight, and the staff were quick and efficient in their work. They were able to quickly accommodate last minute changes, such as where to put the cake stand, with incredible grace and calm.
Any issues or problems were sorted very quickly.
Guests commented how impressed they were with the quality and taste of the food, which was cooked on site.
We were able to come back to the hall in the afternoon the day after and collect things that were too bulky or heavy to take back on the night of the wedding.
Overall, a fantastic day

The Perfect Day

Me and my husband Tom celebrated our magical day at Heskin Hall.

It was fantastic, and I'm writing this only several days so I'll try and separate our my emotions from what anyone reading this wants to know - which is how is the venue.

Venue - 5/5
Heskin Hall is beautiful. It is not overly grand, it is not overly sized, it is not overly formal. It is something of a Goldilocks - a perfect combination of everything you might want whilst retaining it's own personal charm.

We had, I think, approximately 80 guests in the end - around 50 in the day increasing to 80 at night, plus photographers. It could comfortably have accommodated more at night, however I would say the max you can do is 60 day / 120 night (the ceremony room is restricted beyond 60 I believe, if not by the venue by the registrar).

So, if you've got a very big guest list, you might have to look beyond this little gem unfortunately. For us, however, it was perfect.

We had exclusive use of the venue and I believe this is the case for all packages, so no sharing with other parties.

Staff - 5/5

Lynne, who will act as your wedding coordinator, is fantastic. You can approach her with anything. She has a fantastic sense of humor, is extremely down to earth, and will help you make sure your day is planned to perfection.

On the day itself, you will find Lynne in the background, however she will ask what you want and step forward to introduce you to the wedding breakfast etc if you wish. She will play as big or little a role as you want - and she will also round up naughty guests who aren't where they are when they should be (with a smile and some of her fantastic humor of course).

The rest of the staff were great too, all very friendly, couldn't do enough for us or our guests (no 'top table treatment's - they were great to everyone and not just us).


Price - 5/5

Speak to Lynne, check the brochure, you can make your day how you want. We went for a fairly typical classic package but I know Lynne will adapt the day to whatever you want it to be and will be upfront and honest with pricing etc.


All in all - please give this amazing venue a look in. I don't know what else to say - as I said at the start off this review, the wedding is still fresh and I am still taking it all in! Lynne and her team were a big part of why I feel so elated after my magical day.

Go and give Heskin Hall a visit (open virtually all the time - with a lovely little cafe!) - you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful hall and gardens

Our day was perfect we held our reception at Heskin Hall that was exclusively for us and guests, it's beaming with character and quirkiness and fitted our theme. Lynne and her team are amazing nothing was to much trouble our props and accessories were arranged for us perfectly and their flexibility allowed us to have our day exactly how we'd visioned. The food was delicious and plentiful and the price of drinks were very reasonable.
Beautiful and antique, you even get to cut your cake with a sword!

December 2023

Lynne was supportive from the initial email enquiry, right up to the end of the wedding day.

She knew what we wanted better than we did and accommodated any requests.

The rooms were beautifully decorated, and the food was perfect, which was what made the day.

Just what we wanted

We wanted a simple ceremony for ourselves and a couple of dozen guests. Lynne guided us through the whole process. We had a lovely ceremony outside in the gardens followed by a lovely meal. We couldn't have found a better venue. Everyone was fabulous.

Mrs Melanie Southworth

We had a fabulous experience with Heskin hall for our wedding. I am a Nurse and find very little time in planning a wedding. That's where Lynne came in and helped plan and made everything run as smooth as possible. I would have little freaks out and she was always there on the other end of the phone to calm me down. Heskin Hall is absolutely beautiful and had so many compliments from our guests. The food was spectacular again we had amazing compliments on the food and even my fussy autistic child loved his meal. I'd definitely recommend Lynne and Heskin hall and if I could I would definitely get married here again

Genuinely perfect

Lynne and the team went above and beyond to make our day the best it could be. From reassuring us that we will have our day even during a pandemic to letting us use the left over money from our first day to have a vow renewal and party a year later, they just couldn’t do enough for us. The venue itself is stunning and we wouldn’t change a thing.

Gorgeous Venue

Beautiful venue for a wedding, just needs a bit of love and care in other areas. Have a strong head about what you want and you'll be fine. We loved our wedding! The room for the ceremony was beautiful, the only problem was because my husband could see me walking down the aisle in the mirrors he never looked back, but we did get a photo as he saw me. Because of the time, the venue were quick to close up shop so started vacuuming the room, this meant we couldn't go and chat with our guests before leaving for the evening venue.

Lovely aged venue

Got married here in August 2017. Had a lovely day, staff were helpful, but not in your face. Everyone commented on how gorgeous and unique the venue was. Its a lovely grade 1 listed building, so you have to mainly use their dj ect, unless extra is paid. We were so happy with our choice of venue, you get the entire grounds to yourself included the wooded are. Would definitely recomend.
