Lancrigg is a glorious country house in Grasmere nestled in a location second to none. From the stunning backdrop of Helm Crag and Easedale you can enjoy a unique and secluded setting for the most romantic of weddings and celebrations. A private paradise, surrounded by woodland with a breathtaking vista that inspired Wordsworth himself.

From the historic characterful house to our restored Grade II listed Lakeland barn venue, this tranquil property can play host to the celebration you have always dreamt of. The modern vintage interior is timeless, while the extensive grounds provide countless opportunities for stunning wedding photos that you will cherish for years to come.

We are also excited to introduce our exclusive new 'Speakeasy' Whisky & Gin bar to ensure the festivities are toasted in style.
