Whitworth Hall Hotel & Deer Park | Reviews

We got married here on the 2nd April 2016. It is a beautiful venue, with amazing staff that go out of their way to make everything perfect. We could not have wished for a better day. This is such a special place for us and every year we will visit here on our anniversary. Highly recommended.

My day was perfect! David and the team at Whitworth made sure my wedding went without any hiccups and nothing was too much. We had a low key family wedding with afternoon tea. It was very relaxed and perfect in the beautiful setting with the addition of the deer park. My guests loved being able to …

feed the deer I still get comments today about how much they enjoyed the venue and the day. We plan to come back and stay for our anniversary each year.

Absolutely loved our wedding here, the staff were fantastic and the food was delicious. We had kids at our day and the deer made it so much more entertaining for them, they loved being able to feed them. Everybody commented for months afterwards on what a brilliant day it was and how much they'd …

enjoyed it.

Excellent venue. Staff were great. Nothing to worry about as they had everything sorted. Day went absolutely perfect. Meal was super. Fantastic day all round.

From the moment we expressed interest in choosing Whitworth Hall as our wedding venue, David was very helpful and kind in helping us plan for our wedding.
Choosing Whitworth Hall was very easy, as it is in such a beautiful setting, the hotel itself is also gorgeous and the staff are always …

friendly when we have visited.
The price we paid for the package and number of guests fit perfect with our budget.
Running up to the wedding I emailed David on numerous occasions with questions and queries, which were all answered quickly and efficiently and it felt like nothing was a trouble.
I can honestly say that our wedding day went perfectly. There were no hitches, which I have heard from other brides (not at Whitworth) and this was due to David and the team at Whitworth Hall. They created our vision for our wedding perfectly and the venue looked absolutely stunning. The food was delicious and David and the staff were all attentive and so helpful and friendly on the wedding day and also the next morning when guests had breakfast.
Guests from our wedding commented all day and still gush about Whitworth Hall and that they felt it was ‘a special and magical place’
If we could do our wedding again we would still choose Whirworth Hall.
It is a wonderful venue to hold your wedding at and we could not recommend it enough.

The team were amazing, every part of my day was special thanks to this team. The building was so beautiful, the perfect place to have a wedding.

Such an amazing day from start to finish, totally exceptional service from both front and back of house, food was stunning! The building is so beautiful and just adds to the day. Thank you so much whitworth hall :)

Amazing venue and service! David was first class - from our first visit till our wedding day. Food was fabulous and all our guests commented that we couldn’t have picked a better venue. Bedrooms are wonderfully decorated to a high standard. Can’t wait to stay again for our anniversary.

Such a fantastic day!
David and his team looked after everyone so well, nothing was too much trouble for them. The venue and grounds are stunning and the deer park was a great addition to the day, it made it feel just that extra bit unique.

We booked this hotel for our wedding, we wanted a small family and friends wedding and this was an excellent choice for us. We chose an outside wedding, but it rained and we moved into the Duncan Suite. The staff had already set up everything outside. They were fantastic and arranged for the wedding …

to take place inside. We had a lovely ceremony it was very special. For our reception we were in the Garden Room for a Wedding Afternoon Tea, the food was exceptional. The Wedding Manager David was with us all the way, from the first time we turned up to look at the venue to the end of our day. All the staff at the hotel were very friendly, welcoming and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. Everyone was outstanding. The hotel is set in spectacular grounds with a lake and deer. We took some lovely wedding photos. Our day was special and memorable and I would highly recommend this hotel and its staff as a wedding venue for that special day.

We had our special day here. David and the team couldn't be more helpful whenever we needed them. From start to finish was fantastic. Always happy to help and went to great lengths to make sure the day ran smoothly. The grounds are phenomenal and fantastic for photos. We got married in the Duncombe …

suite. It was beautiful, smaller out of the two but it was perfect. The private patio and bar went down a treat. The food was absolutely beautiful. I have even had a couple of my guests ask what the starter was because it was absolutely beautiful definitely a 5-star from bride and groom and guests!!.
The rooms were perfect. The bridal suite was beautiful. Beds were so comfortable and the champagne and personalized glasses were a lovely personal touch. Breakfast was also beautiful.
Overall we were more than satisfied with Whitworth hall and overwhelmed at how attentive and helpful the staff were. I would definitely recommend here for your wedding venue and certainly for any function. It was perfect!

We had our wedding here on Saturday 28th July, it was the most perfect day. The staff couldn’t be more helpful and the service was second to none. David Abbott-Coyle was wonderful, constantly checking on us throughout the day and made sure everything was just how we wanted it! We have been coming …

here for years and couldn’t think of anywhere better to have had our wedding! Thank you all so much ♥️♥️

Review submitted on Sun, 14th of October, 2018

What can I say, the whole experience from start to finish was amazing. You walk into the wedding thing like a rabbit in headlights, not knowing how on earth you are going to pull it off. Thanks to guidance from David and his team at Whitworth Hall Hotel we were firstly put at ease, and then slowly …

guided through the process. The venue itself is beautiful, but we were slightly biased as that's where we first met, ten years to the day prior to our wedding. More than that though it was completely practical and self contained. There was ample accommodation for all the visiting guests, and I have to say the rooms were immaculate, clean and interesting. There were enough grounds and gardens to keep everyone occupied throughout the day, for both big and little people. The staff were friendly, helpful and accommodating (and invisible when they needed to be). The layout of the outdoor ceremony was just beautiful (luckily the weather behaved itself too) and really added to the occasion. The catering for the event itself surpassed all our expectations and the bar had enough drink to quench our families large thirsts. We were really made to feel special and absolutely had the best day of our lives. All our guests have made a point of telling us that it was THE best wedding that they had ever been to.

Fabulous day from start to finish, the venue is beautiful, staff were amazing, David was very helpful and even found us a replacement singer after being let down at the very last minute. Our day ran smoothly and this is all down to David and his great staff. Can’t wait to spend our first …

Well where do I start, our wedding was perfect from start to finish.

David was extremely attentive and helpful along with all the other friendly staff members.

The venue is beautiful beyond belief and the grounds are breath-taking, great for unusual photo options and where else would you be …

able to get wedding photos with deer... Truly magical.

Our meal was lovely and all of our guests have commented on how much they enjoyed it especially the soup which the taste was exquisite. ( I have been asked to get the recipe on several occasions )

Nothing was ever too much for the staff at Whitworth hall and they helped make our day perfect. We wish we could do it all over again and can't wait to return to make more fond memories within the grounds of Whitworth hall.

morning of the wedding helping making it as stress free and perfect as possible for us. Food, venue, service and staff were brilliant. The deer park sells itself and was perfect to keep the kids and adults busy whilst we had photographs taken etc. Perfect wedding venue.

From the very first time we went to a wedding open evening at whitworth Hall we knew it was the place we wanted to get married.
David welcomed us and we arranged a meeting straight away.
From that day David and his team were professional, experienced and great at communicating with us.
I …

didn’t worry about the small stuff because I knew David would have it all covered.
The day ran like clockwork and was truly everything we could have ever imagined!
The food was spectacular, the service was as fantastic and David and his team kept myself and my husband up to date throughout.
Whitworth Hall is an exceptional wedding venue and hotel, more than I could have ever envisaged was achieved. You are all truly exceptional at what you do. No thanks would ever be enough!

Whitworth Hall was a fantastic venue for our wedding in May. From the moment we went to look around the staff couldn't have been more helpful. We booked our day with exclusive hire which meant we had the whole hotel and grounds to ourselves which was something we were really hoping we could find …

within our budget and the pricing was reasonable enough for us to be able to do so. We were able to use all the rooms for our wedding have the wedding breakfast in one room (The Whitworth Suite) and our evening do in the Duncombe Suite meaning our guests could just relax and move between rooms easily. Another fantastic selling point for us was the possibility of being able to get married outside which on the day we were lucky enough with the weather to be able to do. The grounds were set up beautifully and again the staff ensured everything ran to plan and guests were happy and relaxed. The food on the day was excellent and all the guests commented on how much they enjoyed it. The hotel was brilliant in catering for the vegans who were guests as well which is not always easy to do and they were impressed with the choice. David the wedding coordinator was fantastic. He really looked after us both before and during the day ensuring our glasses were never empty and that we were happy and had a little time to ourselves after the ceremony (which is really important having time to take a step back and take your day in.) For anyone wanting a relaxed day, Whitworth Hall is for you. Beautiful building, gorgeous grounds and of course the deer, this was a highlight for a lot of guests especially the children being able to feed them. We had the most perfect day thanks to everyone at Whitworth and I wouldn't have changed it for the world.

We had the most perfect wedding day at Whitworth Hall and cannot speak highly enough of each and every one of the staff members. In particular David & Stacey were fantastic and so helpful with everything in the run up to and on the wedding day itself - nothing was too much! I must also mention Lal …

who is such a true gent - the staff are more like a family!

We were married in the church on the grounds and had our reception in the Whitworth Suite which is the bigger of the two rooms. Luckily the weather was beautiful and we were able to take advantage of the lovely outside seating areas too.

The canapes/ 3 course meal and evening buffet were absolutely delicious and all of our guests commented on how amazing it all tasted.

The grounds are incredible with so many spectacular photo opportunities, we have some amazing images to treasure.

It genuinely is the perfect place to be married for a truly unforgettable day. I found, when searching for a venue, a lot were like ‘wedding factories’, however this couldn’t be further away from the reality of Whitworth Hall as it is an intimate, personal and breathtakingly beautiful venue!
We just want to do it all over again!
Thank you from Mr & Mrs Mahoney.

Me and my husband chose this venue due to its amazing location, but after meeting David the wedding Co-Ordinator and how helpful he was made me feel so comfortable that I could put my faith in him to help us deliver the dream wedding we wanted, I'd recommend them to everyone for this location alone …

but the friendly staff made our day so stress free.

Our wedding day went without a hitch, thanks to David for saving the day. He went out of his way to make everything perfect & to make sure the day went as smoothly as possible.

absolutely amazing from the minute he met us till the day after our wedding he was always there to help in any way we needed. We recently went back to Whitworth hall with our daughters to feed the deer and David looked out the window and waved and that Made me smile because it shows you're not just a number.

We got married in May in the Duncombe Suite, what a perfect day we had. It couldn't have gone any better, the staff were amazing! and they made my dream come true. They do everything you just sit back and enjoy every min! Some lovely finishing touches they add to your day too like signing your …

Thanks for everything you did for us.

Having been to a couple of weddings here in the past I knew once it came to booking our wedding that this was the place for us.
The staff couldn't do enough for us, in particular David. In the run up to our wedding any queries or concerns I had he dealt with straight away and was very helpful. The …

morning of the wedding he came up to my room to make sure I was ok and if I needed anything. He even walked round to the church with large umbrellas for us in the pouring rain! It was the little things like this which really make this venue and staff the best.
The setting is beautiful, even on a dull day our photos looked fab against the backdrop! We had gone for a package type wedding including arrival drinks and a 3 course meal. We could not fault it! Enough drinks for everyone and the food was lovely. We would definitely recommend this venue, and if we were to ever need another venue for a party etc this would definitely be top of our list.

Review submitted on Tue, 7th of August, 2018

Our reception was in the Duncombe suite, and the rooms making up the suite enabled guests to mingle without any one room becoming crowded. The food was very good and was served piping hot.
The staff were very attentive and the guest accommodation was excellent. It certainly helped having own bar …

facilities to use for the day.
All in all an excellent day for all those who attended, and we would certainly recommend Whitworth Hall for any couples thinking of having their wedding reception there.

You know when you fall in love with a place on the drive up to a wedding fair and know it is perfect for your day. This was us, on the day of our wedding at Whitworth Hall we had the most amazing magical day enjoyed by everyone who attended. I cannot reccomend this venue enough.

I had the pleasure of marrying my best friend at Whitworth Hall earlier this year in October. Myself and Bella had a fantastic day in a beautiful setting and couldn't have asked for anything more. All of our guests were blown away at what a beautiful setting Whitworth Hall was. Our day would not …

have been stress free had it not been for the staff, especially David our wedding planner. He made sure that everything we wanted was catered for and made us both feel at ease on the big day as you can imagine the nerves were setting in. I would definitely recommend this venue to any of my friends that are looking for the perfect place and people to marry them.

I got married here last year and it was a fabulous day, I couldn't have wished for a more magical day. The venue and staff were amazing

All aspects of our experience at Whitworth Hall from the booking and organisation from David. Nothing was too much trouble and the reception went off with out a single hitch.
Special mention to all the staff who made our day truly special & has left us with some incredible memories.

A truly magnificent day/event, the staff could not have been more helpful and attentive to our every wish! There is no doubt that I would recommend the services of this great place to anyone looking to make their special day that little bit more perfect. Thank you so much!

A lovely day, staff catered to our every need to make the day extra special. Food and staff were a delight would recommend to anyone. Beautiful scenery especially the deer.

I was lucky enough to be married at Whitworth hall in May 2016 to my best friend and love of my life. The day was absolutely perfect, everything that had been discussed with David our wedding co-ordinator was achieved. Without the regular meetings and David's professionalism I do not think the day …

would have gone so smoothly. Everything that I asked for was in place and the attention to detail could not be faulted. I would highly recommend Whitworth Hall, the staff are all lovely and the setting was absolutely beautiful. I certainly will not forget my special day and we will be going back to spend our 1st anniversary there.

As soon as we drove up the drive to take a look we knew Whitworth Hall was the place we wanted to get married.
From meeting David and the team and discussing our dream day we couldn't have asked for a better service.

Firstly, for me I was a little worried about planning our wedding as he proposed and we decided to get married within 6 weeks, which was a task in itself. However, I booked a meeting with David at Whitworth hall immediately and fell in love. David was perfect, he went through everything with me made …

me feel at ease and helped every step of the way with any queries, I also had guests with nut allergies, David tailored our food around this, and it was not a problem. He also helped with recommendations for photographers, chair hire if wanted etc and the wedding fayre we visited at the venue was a perfect insight and really helpful.

We can't thank the staff and mostly of all David for all their hard work on the day taking all the stress away from me and my husband, allowing us to enjoy the day and I did not worry about a thing. Everything was as I imagined and more, the food was absolutely outstanding, and every guest complimented on the staff and the food. We booked the Duncombe suite which is the smaller room of the two, with a private bar and the very pretty conservatory this was perfect for us as we had 40 day quests and 80 evening which fit everyone comfortably, yet still keeping it intimate.

We booked both honeymoon suites, I stayed in one the first night with my bridesmaids and the other for me and my husband the wedding night. Both are stunning with four poster beds, and added to the experience. Guests also complemented on the lovely rooms.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and of course, adds to the beauty of our day. From the grounds to the beautiful deer, and the guests loved to go out and feed them, which was a great infill of the day.

Overall, I could not thank the staff enough for all their hard work for our beautiful day, David especially we can not thank enough for making a very stressful 6 weeks of planning a pleasant experience with his help. All in all I would recommend Whitworth Hall for an outstanding wedding.

I got married at Whitworth Hall Thursday 2nd December 2010, it was the worst winter in a decade and the Majority of my guests couldn't attend, started to cancel from the Wednesday. I arrived at the hotel in the Wednesday afternoon in floods of tears and Liz and Jackie went out of their way to calm …

me down and try and sort out a solution to get my immediate family and bridesmaids to the Hotel from Middlesbrough as no body drove and where relying on taxie's to make the 45 minute journey. Alan God rest his soul, had kindly offered to go to Middlesbrough to pick up my bridesmaids whilst a couple of friends went to pick up the rest. Jackie was amazing, offered my family reduced rates on rooms for that evening as it was going to be an extra expense for everyone.
The day of the wedding there was a young guy named Andrew looking after our day and he went above and beyond, there was even disasters on the day with sinking deers and the groom getting stuck behind the fire engines trying to rescue the deer. Andrew just took everything in his stride and the day went without any hiccups and ran smoothly. I have since started my own decor business and have visited Whitworth Hall on a few more occasions and every time I visit and I see any of the staff who worked there 6 years ago are always so friendly and still talk about my wedding day.
Whitworth Hall will always have a strong place in my heart and if I could do it all again, I would Book Whitworth Hall I a heartbeat.

One of best days if my life. 27.12.08.
Everything was perfect from start to finish. Best Western Whitworth Hall should be your first and only choice.
Remember to enjoy your day because it goes over so fast.

I can't even begin to say how amazing whitworth is. It's a picturesque place and the possibility for amazing pictures.
And what makes it even better is the staff but mostly David the wedding co-ordinator he's one of a kind. Always there to help from prior to booking to even after the wedding …

nothing seemed like a problem even meet with my family for them to organise little things for me.
I couldn't fault the venue at all nd would recommend it to anyone.
Plus you get the added bonus that there is a church in the grounds if u want to get married in church like we did.
Just the most perfect and amazing venue would highly recommend it you won't be disappointed

We held our wedding reception at Whitworth Hall hotel 13th May 2016. The hotel itself is in a secluded, beautiful deer park on the outskirts of Spennymoor. This gave the day a very private feeling, not like some of the other bigger hotels in the area. We can honestly say we had the best day of our …

lives. David had recently been appointed as the hotels new wedding co-ordinator and he took care of absolutely everything on the day, we did not have to worry about a thing! All of the staff were great and chatted with our guests which we really liked, it made things more personal. The wedding breakfast meal was delicious, sometimes food can be let down when mass catering but certainly not here. And the drinks are reasonably priced which is great for guests. We pretty much hired out the entire hotel which is a bonus of this venue as it is not too big/small. All our guests were happy with their rooms and the fab cooked breakfast the next morning. We could not have asked for a better day. Thank you

We married at whitworth hall in Aug 2012 the wedding team were fantastic and made our day special from start to finish. The beautiful building, gardens and settings made it complete and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this venue to anyone planning their special day!!

My husband and I were married here in June 2010. When we looked around the venue during the first visit, we knew it was the perfect place.
The wedding team were fantastic and talked us through all of the options available and gave us the time to decide what we wanted for our special day.
The day …

itself was amazing and every guest thoroughly enjoyed themselves. Family and friends still talk about the great time they had at our wedding as well as how beautiful the hall and grounds are.
We have returned to the hall several times since our wedding day, we have stayed as guests and have even brought our children to see where we were married.
I recommend the hall to others when they are looking at venues for their special day.

I would definitely recommend Whitworth Hall Hotel as a venue for anyone getting married. Me and my husband were married in April this year and we had a fantastic day. All the staff were very accommodating especially David our wedding coordinator. He made sure that we had the perfect day and all of …

our guests were taken care of. David also managed to calm me down when I nearly had a nervous breakdown thinking that something was going to go wrong! Nothing did I'm happy to say and the day was just how I'd imagined. The grounds are beautiful to have the photographs taken especially with the deer. I also liked that David took the time to congratulate us on facebook from him and his team as well as present us with personalised champagne glasses and a card from all the staff. Very thoughtful as they probably have lots of weddings, the personal touch was second to none. Highly recommend Whitworth Hall.

What can I say if you are using these reviews to decide where to have your special day then look no further. The hotel and the setting are perfect and David the wedding coordinator is a blessing. From our first initial meeting David made us feel welcome and helped us immensely, especially as he is a …

professional and it was our first and hopefully last time in getting married. He made some very good suggestions as we didn't really know what we wanted, just a few ideas. David took the time to go over everything from dressing the room, showing us where we could have our photos done to getting the menu we wanted. Believe me this was not an easy task due to us having some fussy eaters in the family!!
David was there on the day for the whole day and made sure all our timings were correct and also helped welcome the guests. He even gave us a set of champagne glasses with our names on and gave us a card which was very thoughtful. I wish I could have someone like David in all areas of my life!

Our wedding day at Whitworth Hall (4th June 2016) was everything we hoped it would be and more.
David and the team ensured everything ran smoothly and we had everything we needed. We really didn't worry about a thing all day.
The Whitworth Suite was laid out beautifully for us for the ceremony …

and again for the wedding breakfast, with minimum input required from ourselves.
The meal we had was perfect, everyone commented on how good the food was and individual requirements were catered for with minimum fuss, just ordered in advance for the day.
We spent quite a lot of time having our photographs taken in the surrounding gardens and they really are beautiful and we have some amazing pictures - especially with the deer!
We used the recommended DJ for our evening reception and again we had no complaints! He had everyone dancing until the end and played all requests.
We felt our day flowed beautifully and seamlessly, all our guests commented on how relaxed an atmosphere it was (exactly what we wanted). Although I'm sure the staff were working extremely hard, they made it look effortless and weren't too busy to chat and become part of our day.
We can't thank everyone at Whitworth Hall enough for giving us the perfect wedding day, and would highly recommend this venue. Not just for the beautiful hotel and grounds, but the staff involved too.

Whitworth hall is stunning and the customer service is out of this word. We had to rearrange our wedding a week before we were due to get married and Whitworth Hall treat us like family not just a customer or bussiness agreement.
When we actually got married all of the staff we fab and all my …

guests were looked after from the moment they walked through the door.
Even though they were rushed off there feet on our big day they made every single including us like a member of the family.
To sum Whitworth hall up...excellent quality food, drink, beautiful deco inside and the surroundings are out of this world.
We have actually recommended Whitworth Hall to a couple we know and they booked there wedding there next year! Also we are going to go back for our Wedding Anniversary.

What a wonderful wedding day! Our special day was on the 18th of June and was perfect from start to finish. We looked at various venues but from the moment we drove into Whitworths grounds and saw the beautiful fallow deer roaming in the ancient woodland, we knew it was somewhere special. Stepping …

inside the stunning hall, we were greeted by the friendliest of staff who made us feel so welcome. We looked at both suites but knew as we entered the Whitworth Suite that that was the place we wanted host our wedding breakfast. We had numerous requests from where to place our LOVE letters and vintage photo booth to moving tables around and changing the chairs to different ones we wanted. Absolutely nothing was a problem. On the day itself, each and every member of staff was superb; helpful, accomodating and professional. A special mention must go to David, the wedding coordinator. David is professional with a capital P! He had a special knack of always being in the right place at the right time for everyone. All our guests were to 'kick out' at midnight as everyone was having such a wonderful time. Many stayed overnight and the accommodation was perfect, as was the hearty breakfast next morning. Not only can we recommend, without hesitation Whitworth Hall Hotel, but also all our guests said too how perfect it was. Thank you to every member of staff who made our wedding day so special.

My Husband and me got married on the 30th of May 2015 at the Best Western Whitworth Hall Hotel in Spennymoor, County Durham. I can honestly say it was the most beautiful dream day we could have ever wished for!

The 1st time we drove into the park of Whitworth Hall Hotel, I knew we had a found …

something very special. The hotel is situated in this most beautiful deer park, which surrounded by beautiful forest and a lake and the Hotel itself is elegant and intimate. I fell in love with it immediately and this was before I met the wonderful staff at Whitworth.

Throughout our wedding planning, the team at Whitworth has been very helpful and supportive and was open to any questions.

On the big day, the care and thought they put into our wedding was wonderful! The food, the set up and how it all came together, for us to have a wonderful, fun, happy and not stressful dream wedding day, was all thanks to the team at Whitworth. I cannot thank them enough!

Everyone of my family and friends still talk about what a beautiful day it was and how much they enjoyed it and think about I often. However not as often as my husband and I, who couldn’t have started our marriage in a better or more wonderful way!!! We will be back for many anniversary celebrations!

Thanks Whitworth Hall Hotel
