The Orchard Marquee
An extraordinary marriage begins in an extraordinary location...
Surrounded by captivating countryside views, our incredible award-winning marquee is the ultimate location in County Durham for your special wedding event. Home to one of the only lavender fields in the North East, plus apple orchard, pond, farmyard antiques, tree swing and bespoke fire pits, there is an abundance of backdrops for stunning wedding photography.
The Orchard Marquee is one of a few permanent marquees in the North East and offers a bespoke grand wedding venue, giving the chance to add a personal touch, creating your ideal, completely unique experience.
The space is furnished with dance floor, stunning 8ft chandeliers, up-lighting and fully integrated sound system - consider it a blank canvas to make your own. The versatile venue has a reception area for arrival drinks and greeting guests, plus plenty of space for a ceremony, dining and evening celebrations.
We are also licensed for civil ceremonies and if you wish for open-air “I dos”, we can even host ceremonies in these incredible outdoor settings, with a number of spots available in the grounds, including lakeside and under our romantic rose arch.
We provide everything you eat in our onsite kitchen, everything you drink in our well stocked bar – we even provide a wonderful in-house team to serve you.
You can explore the Orchard Marquee in 3D on your screen in our virtual tour here, and get a feel for what the space is actually like. Click here to view the virtual tour. (Please view on a desktop to get the full experience.)
You'll see a sneak peek of the estate in our brochure but nothing beats visiting our remarkable Orchard Marquee venue, seeing the breathtaking views of the surrounding County Durham counrtyside for yourself.

Take a walk around our beautiful and secluded Orchard Marquee and soak in the stunning views. Although viewings are not permitted inside the marquee, our beautiful venue is visible from the outside through our full panel glass frontage.
