The interiors at Coombe Lodge include the light-filled Music Room (licensed for civil ceremonies, seating up to 160) and the more intimate Billiard Room (ideal for smaller gatherings of up to 80). For outdoor lovers, vows may be exchanged under a stone archway in the courtyard, backed by landscaped gardens and lovely views. After the ceremony, the reception flows into the Music Room for a stylish wedding breakfast, with the venue then accommodating up to 200 for evening celebrations. Twelve luxurious bedrooms within the house allow couples and some guests to stay on site, and the house is known for its refined architecture, period detail and modern touches—like crisp interiors, atmospheric lighting, and original panelling—giving it both character and comfort. The in-house catering team prides itself on using local produce and flexible menu style (from feast sharing platters to classic courses) to suit each couple’s vibe. Couples often praise the team’s attentiveness, the seamless pacing of the day, and the food as standouts, calling the experience “stunning” and “flawlessly run.”

Holmes Mill is a restored 19th-century cotton mill in the heart of Clitheroe, Lancashire, reimagined as an industrial-chic wedding destination that blends historic authenticity with modern luxury.  Its Cotton Room—bathed in natural light and featuring reclaimed cinema seating—is fully licensed for civil ceremonies and can host 50 to 150 guests, while the venue accommodates up to 180 guests for evening celebrations. For the wedding breakfast, couples may choose between the Cotton Room or the stylish Bar & Grill, which contrasts the mill’s industrial character with Art Deco touches. One of Holmes Mill’s standout features is its seamless integration of experiential elements: it houses the Bowland Brewery, an onsite Food Hall, and the Spinning Block Hotel (39 boutique rooms), making it possible for guests to stay onsite and for the day to flow naturally from ceremony to late night without leaving the venue. The raw textures—exposed brick, visible beams, vintage mill machinery like the restored engine in the “Engine Room”—lend dramatic backdrops for photography and lend the space a story.   In short, Holmes Mill offers couples a compelling mix of heritage, flexibility, and in-house amenities, all within a striking industrial shell that’s ready to be customized to their vision.
