The stunning views of the lake and surrounding fells provide a breathtaking setting, while our elegant wedding spaces add an extra layer of charm to your celebration. With both indoor and outdoor options, you can say “I do” in a place you’ll never forget.
"The hotel has a fabulous location with the most amazing views. I checked ahead that my daughter, who is coeliac and vegan, could be catered for and for once she was not left disappointed! The spa was very relaxing and spotlessly clean, as was our room."

FAQs
Your dream wedding starts at Lakeside. See some frequently asked questions here.

Yes, our maximum capacity for a wedding is 80 people for the ceremony but we can fit up to 100 for the evening ‘do’, but we unfortunately wouldn’t be able to accommodate a sit-down style meal if there were 100 guests in attendance. We have multiple venues on site to for elopements (‘just the two of us’) to grander affairs (‘classic celebration’). Speak to our sales team to find out how to plan your perfect day.
-
-
Yes! We have a list of ‘trusted’ suppliers that we use regularly, but you are welcome to use anyone. The only exception to that would be food as this is provided by Lakeside by our in-house kitchen.

Most of our venues are on the ground floor of the hotel or situated within the hotel grounds, so are accessible for mobile elderly guests. We also have lifts within the hotel, but there may be a couple of steps between the lifts and events rooms if you choose one of our first floor spaces. We do have venue spaces that are suitable for wheelchair users. Accessibility will depend on which event space you choose, so if you speak to our events team then they will ensure to plan your perfect day and hopefully match all your requirements.

-
Yes, there is a large car park outside of the hotel. If you have a large wedding party then we would always recommend car sharing where possible but our events team will be able to guide you on parking availability.

No, we are very transparent about costings and we don’t add on any surprise fees like setup or overtime fees. Our events team can talk you through pricing and can help you with suppliers too to understand costs.
