Cote How

Cote How is a family-run, all-inclusive, award-winning wedding venue offering full exclusivity, nestled in the heart of Wordsworth's Romantic English Lake District. Commanding a breathtaking location at the head of the Rydal Valley, it is naturally secluded by river, fell, and lake, creating an enchanting setting steeped in history. Couples can choose from five ceremony locations, making it a truly flexible and authentic Lakeland venue perfect for smaller, more intimate weddings in the historic house or rustic slate barn.

The venue offers three indoor and two outdoor licensed ceremony spaces. The house ceremony rooms are spacious, light and airy, elegantly styled with neutral colours, crystal chandeliers, and oversized gilt mirrors. For those seeking a rustic, outdoor ambience, the traditional Lakeland slate barn with its stunning oak-beamed ceiling provides a charming backdrop.

Cote How specialises in relaxed and intimate ceremonies for Just the Two of You, intimate weddings for up to 12 guests, and barn weddings for up to 50. Caroline and Steve, renowned for their dedication, guide every couple through their wedding journey, ensuring a memorable experience from the initial meeting to departing Cote How as a newly married couple. Caroline brings over 30 years’ experience as a wedding planner, ensuring each wedding is unique and expertly managed.
