The Pilgrims Rest is a dry hire venue however we have designed and furnished it so that it needs little decoration. With Chiavari chairs for dining, real candles, fire wood and benches and furs for the ceremony we have tried to think of everything to make your day as simple and affordable for you as possible.

We have two dressing rooms at The Pilgrims Rest. The Bryant Suite and The Fitzherbert Dressing Rooms give you and your wedding parties a place to relax and get ready on the morning of your wedding.

Both dressing rooms, although under the same roof, are on opposite ends of the building so if you choose to get ready separately you can do without bumping into each other.

The only thing our team love more than weddings are dogs! So when you ask us, “can we bring our dog to our wedding?” Our response is always, “yes please!”

The Pilgrims Rest is a pet friendly venue as we understand just how important it is to have every member of your family at your wedding, especially the furry ones!

Less is More !

“Your wedding day should be full of fun, laughter and love. Think about if you were attending your best friend’s wedding - would you judge
them if they decided not to spend hours making tiny pots of jam as favours?”

The Pilgrims Rest has been designed to make a small wedding not only achievable but aspirational.
The Less is More Wedding is perfect for slightly smaller, intimate weddings. For a maximum of 30 (just the right amount to fit around six of our trestle tables making a huge family dining table).
The Less is More Wedding is a wonderful option for those wanting to spend their wedding day with just their nearest and dearest.

Beyond The Moon hire period.
The Pilgrims Rest has been designed to ensure that an intimate wedding with your closest friends and family is not only affordable, but aspirational! Much like our Less is More hire option, our brand new Beyond The Moon hire option allows you access to The Pilgrims Rest for 12 hours but works great for those families that are a little larger.
if you're looking for an intimate space to host your 'family dinner' style wedding then look no further.
