Walworth Castle Hotel is located within 18 acres of lawns and woodlands and provides the perfect setting for your special day. You can have a civil ceremony at the castle with the option of an outdoor ceremony in our beautiful wedding garden with Lady Palmers Pavilion, or indoors in our magnificent ballroom. For those more daring we have a dungeon available! We only host one wedding per day, ensuring that you and your guests are the only VIP's at the hotel. We also offer the castle exclusively, so only you and your guests have use of the venue and its grounds. We have a highly trained wedding team who can help guide you through the process of arranging your fairytale wedding. Our chefs can create a bespoke menu suited to your tastes or we can offer you menus which you can choose from. We have 32 beautifully decorated en suite rooms including the King James bridal suite, which King James himself stayed in when he was travelling from Scotland to London for his coronation in 1603. If you are looking for a venue which offers a personal touch to your special day, and is able to offer you a civil ceremony, a wedding breakfast and evening celebrations with delicious food and drinks, plus accommodation for you and your guests then call us to arrange a viewing.

The Perfect Wedding!
We had our wedding here recently and it was perfect in every way, from start to finish. From the stay with my daughters the night before and the meal with my friends, I couldn’t fault it. The food was outstanding, the staff attentive and welcoming and the room clean (and huge) - we had the King James suite. Read more

1st Class!
We stayed in this fantastic castle for our daughters wedding. Beautiful surroundings, rooms were spotlessly clean and well equipped, the bridal suite was jaw-dropping, stunning. The staff were 1st class, all the comms before the wedding, the check-in, the bar staff, waiting staff, managers all so friendly and made sure the stay was flawless. They were all on hand to make sure she had a fantastic day. The wedding timings were so well organised.

A perfect wedding venue with accommodation to suit
Tis the 16th of April, quite a significant Spring day. Having strimmed Garden 'n Fence Edges; our Son Cut the Lawns, to get us Away. So A Trip to Walworth Castle, Via Archers Ice Cream Parlour was the Plan. Enjoy a Sunday Lunch with All the Trimmings which was Delicious: If YOU Can. The setting is SO perfect with Ancient Space and Views Galore. Our First Visit; when Friends Bought it; was over 45years and More. A Perfect Wedding Venue with Accommodatio to Suit. In the 'Best Western' Tradition

Superb and best food ever!
We initially intended to stop overnight in the Lake District as a Christmas present for my wife but due to the awful weather, we rebooked somewhere a bit closed (Walworth Castle) and what a great decision that was! We had a tour around the castle dungeons, which you can hire out for an alternative wedding if you so wish. The castle ballroom caters for both traditional and none traditional weddings, a perfect venue for a wedding or just a romantic weekend away in an old castle.

I cannot speak more highly of the whole experience and would definitely recommend to others

Our daughter and son in law chose the castle two years ago and not one family member or friends were disappointed at all. From start to finish our stay and the beautiful wedding ceremony and wonderful meal was superb. Big thanks to all the staff who made their unforgettable special day
