Four rooms at Goldsborough Hall have been licensed for civil marriage ceremonies and partnerships.

• -Princess Mary’s Drawing Room
• Sir Richard Hutton Dining Room
• The Oak-Panelled Library
• The Hanson Conservatory

The Gardens

The Hall’s gardens were laid out in the style of Capability Brown and boast some magnificent and mature trees. These include ancient yew, beech and pseudo-acacia trees along with giant redwood, white beam and one of the oldest horse chestnuts left standing in the country. There is also a copse of five Japanese cherry trees, given to Princess Mary as a wedding gift by the Emperor of Japan. In early spring the garden is awash with snowdrops, many different and rare varieties. Guests for a summer wedding could start with champagne and canapés served on the terrace, which has stunning and uninterrupted views across unspoilt parkland. Music from a jazz band or a string quartet can be organised to entertain. Winter wedding guests could sip mulled wine, served in the Library in front of a roaring log fire.

St Mary’s Church, Goldsborough

Couples can also consider getting married in the church (Church of England) adjoining the Hall, with its own private royal entrance to the Hall. The 13th-century church is Norman in origin and could also be considered for a blessing.

Rooms

It's not everyday that you get the chance to stay in the former residence of a Royal Princess. And, as such, six luxury suites within the main house have been refurbished to the highest standards for guest accommodation.

Rooms are available on an individual per night bed and breakfast basis or can be hired as part of an exclusive wedding or function at the Hall.

In keeping with the history of the property, the rooms have been named after families who owned the Hall during the first 400 years of its existence and each one carries a story of the history that surrounds it.
