Temple Newsam House, Leeds This magnificent Tudor-Jacobean country house dates back to the 1500s and is steeped in history and grandeur. Described by many as the Hampton Court of the north, it’s nestled within 1,500 acres of beautiful gardens, mature woodland and rolling parkland. Couples can choose to hold their nuptials in one of three ceremony rooms, the largest being The Great Hall, which accommodates up to 100 of your friends and family and boasts a ‘secret door’ that allows guests to move through to the South Terrace – a perfect setting for your drinks reception. The majestic, oak-panelled Dining Room is the mid-sized option catering for up to 40 ceremony guests and 30 diners, while the most intimate of the locations on offer is The Still Room, one of the oldest parts of the house which was originally used to make preserves and beverages.
