Hardwick Hall Hotel

Sedgefield, Durham, County Durham, TS21 2EH

OVERVIEW

A former country seat of the squires of Sedgefield, ‘Herdewyk’ has a lively story to tell, with the original estate dating from 1183 and the Manor from 1435.

Once an ambling local hostelry with ‘a certain air’ marked by parties, good living, fine ladies and true gentlemen; Hardwick has been transformed into a sumptuously appointed hotel with outstanding facilities.

Nestling in the beautiful County Durham countryside with breath-taking views of the Country Park Lake and Serpentine, the hotel provides the perfect venue for your wedding.

THE CEREMONY

The hotel is a licensed venue for Civil Marriages and Civil Partnerships. We can accommodate ceremonies from 10 guests to 500 guests with the choice of Suites.

A choice of red or ivory carpet creates an aisle down the length of the chosen Suite with comfortable seating for your guests and Civil Ceremony music playing in the background chosen by the happy couple. As the license holder, the hotel provides a licensed representative to organise the guests on the day and to be present during the service.

The Floral Chapel

We are delighted to announce the opening of The Floral Chapel, combining romance and elegance, with fabulous traditional features including the ceiling high fireplace adorned with flowers and exposed wooden beams, offering the perfect choice for your enchanted wedding. Accommodating with its own private bar and split across two levels. This beautiful suite is the perfect alluring location for your wedding and can cater for up 110 guests.

The Coleman Suite

This Coleman Suite can be split into three sections with partition walls consisting of two entrances with two reception areas. Coleman Suite 1 and 3 come with their own bars keeping both suites self-contained and private. The Coleman Suite has six magnificent crystal chandeliers, tiered and twinkling with tens of thousands of crystals that shimmer in the large mirrors surrounding the room.

The Boyne Suite
