We had our wedding at Colshaw Hall and highly recommend it to anyone. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, however, what impressed us the most was the first class service. The staff literally cannot do enough for you, from start to end everything ran so smoothly, the team are so warm and friendly. Without a doubt the best day ever, thanks to them all. Highly recommend!

Beautiful for small to medium weddings especially for pictures. Great waiting staff! Only negatives, parking quite far from halls for heels and toilets though very well appointed, weren't all clean.
