Simply Classical: Dissington Hall

We are very proud to be preferred supplier to the splendid Dissington Hall. This magnificent wedding venue in Northumberland is just a short drive from Newcastle.  Exquisite marquee weddings and marriage ceremonies are held in this beautiful country house setting. Yours will also be the only wedding held that day therefore exclusive use is guaranteed.

We interviewed the Events Manager as Dissington Hall to give you a special insight into this fabulous venue...

What facilities does your venue boast? 

Dissington Hall offers you the chance to escape with your party to the calm and classical surroundings of a magnificent Georgian estate. With exclusive use of Dissington Hall and its beautiful grounds, your event will become a special occasion.

We offer fine cuisine, a comprehensive wine list, a private bar, superb conference facilities, dancing to live music or a disco, beautiful suites of period rooms, a heated marquee, and a civil marriage licence.

Dissington Hall is a family run business with a skilled and highly professional approach to your event, be it a family wedding reception or a high-profile product launch.

Does your hotel cater for weddings?

Most receptions involve arrival drinks in the Library or, in the summer, on the Terrace and East lawn. This is followed by the wedding party welcoming the guests to a seated meal for between 40 and 160 guests.

The food is of the highest quality and menus can be tailored to suit your needs, excellent selection of wines and we also offer good value drinks packages.

The day-time reception blends into an enjoyable evening function with finger buffet meals for up to 200 guests, dancing and a late licence allowing your function to end at around midnight.
