A stunning lakeside setting, personalised wedding service and award-winning food and drink make the Macdonald Old England Hotel and Spa one of the finest wedding venues in the Lake District.

Set on the shores of beautiful Lake Windermere, with its own private lawns and jetties and the sweeping Lake District fells beyond, the natural beauty of the Old England provides an elegant backdrop for your wedding photographs.

We can accommodate daytime weddings only at the Macdonald Old England Hotel, or you are welcome to hire the hotel on an exclusive use basis and celebrate into the evening. Exchange your vows in one of our two wedding suites, both licensed for civil ceremonies, and follow your morning wedding service with a romantic cruise on Lake Windermere, arriving back on shore to a sumptuous meal with family and friends.
