Venue & Location

Pros:

  • "The venue is amazing: we got married in the Mirror Room and had our wedding breakfast and evening party in the Conservatory."
  • "The Hall itself is incredible, standing in all its grandeur surrounded by pristine grounds, a breathtaking setting."
  • "The venue's timeless charm and picturesque setting were complemented by a staff that went above and beyond."
  • "As soon as we first saw Wynyard Hall we knew we wanted to get married at this venue, the grounds, statue room, ballroom, conservatory and chapel are absolutely beautiful and so grand, it was the perfect fit for our Christmas themed wedding!"
  • "Booked our wedding at this venue. The venue is absolutely stunning."
  • "The Gardens were breathtaking. These are a must to anyone visiting the area."
  • "This picturesque location in the North East is definitely a hidden jewel."

Cons:

  • "Main building outside could do with some renovation works and also repairs to stone footpaths."
  • "Nice place but totally empty neglected atmosphere about the place."
  • "Scruffy fences and outside furniture."
  • "Walking down the metal footpath to the market was very slippery and when we stood on part of it, it moved causing mud to splash up all over my wife's boots at trousers."
  • "Although the weather was bad to have some photos taken outside, alongside a beautiful backdrop would have been a disaster, as the wind and rain would have ruined both hair and hats."
  • "The signage once on site could be improved to find the cafe quicker & easier… follow the signs for the garden to find the cafe and Glasshouse restaurant!"
  • "Parking at Christmas fayre is in my opinion appalling and stressful at very least."

Service & Staff

Pros:

  • "The staff are professional yet friendly, nothing was too much trouble."
  • "Went for afternoon tea, amazing place, staff very helpful and attentive."

  • "All of the staff were amazing, professional, polite and courteous and couldn’t do enough for us."
  • "The staff were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble for them, special thanks to Richard the concierge."

Cons:

  • "Seriously disappointed with the service provided after booking the venue for our special day. The lack of communication and delay in responses was honestly frustrating."
  • "The welcome drinks were not ready, and our pre-arranged music was not playing when any of the guests or wedding party arrived back at the hall from the church."
  • "Staff abrupt when asked about how long we had to wait."
  • "Some staffs’ waistcoats were too tight and the shirts were just coming out of them and it looked scruffy."
  • "The staff could not have cared less, the girl behind the counter who served us was just throwing and dropping plates around."
  • "He honestly did a terrible job as a toast master and this was pointed out and noticed by guests."
  • "Terrible customer service If I could have left 0 stars I would have."

Cons:

  • "Manicure not up to standard of what I have had elsewhere. Afternoon tea sandwiches where not as fresh as should be."

  • "The so-called buffet I wouldn’t feed to a dog absolutely disgusting."
