The Priests House Wedding Venue

With the stunning backdrop of Barden Tower, the Priests House is ideally located for a private and exclusive wedding and reception. The House is perfect for an intimate meal for up to 30 guests whilst the magnificent chapel can cater for up to 75.

The Priests house is a small, exclusive wedding venue in the heart of the fabulous Yorkshire Dales. With the magnificent backdrop of the grade 1 listed Barden Tower and the splendid Upper Wharfedale valley, this is a quite superb historical setting with fabulous views up and down the valley. As its name suggests, The Priests House was originally a 16th century chapel serving the Tower and the local area and consists of the House itself together with the newly renovated Chapel. The House itself is ideal for small, intimate ceremonies and wedding breakfasts for up to 30 guests with the ceremony in the Old Chapel and wedding breakfast in the House itself. Lovingly restored, it has retained many of the medieval features including the open fires, fabulous log beams, and quaint dressers. It is especially intimate in the darker months when the real fires and candles are fully lit and the lights are turned down... The Chapel having stood empty for some 75 years has been sympathetically refurbished and brought back to its former glory. It can host ceremonies up to 90 guests and is ideal to also use for your wedding breakfast and evening reception venue too (capacity 75). We can also offer the Barden Bunk Barn on the other side of the Tower which provides accommodation for up to 20 guests. The photo opportunities are endless, with superb backdrops of the ruin of the once magnificent tower on one side and the expanse of the Wharfedale valley on the other.
