Sadly, we don't cater for weddings at Haddon Hall. However, we are the perfect place for a proposal. If you are thinking of "popping the question", why not do it in our romantic Garden? It can be very private, with only your and yours knowing about it, but if you want to make a proclamation of your love - we'll help you plan the event!
Haddon Hall has welcomed visitors for hundreds of years and its beauty and atmosphere never fails to enchant.
Described by Simon Jenkins in “1000 Best Houses” as “the most romantic house to survive from the middle ages”. Set in the heart of the beautiful Peak District National Park, parts of the house date from the 12th Century, sitting like a jewel in its Elizabethan terraced gardens, and overlooking the River Wye.
Film-makers flock to Haddon Hall to use it as a location. The house and grounds have played host to no less than three versions of “Jane Eyre”. Screen credits also include Elizabeth”, Pride & Prejudice” and “The Other Boleyn Girl”. This year marks the silver jubilee of “The Princess Bride”, the cult classic movie in which Haddon Hall became Humperdinck’s Castle.
Haddon has its own romantic tale - that of Dorothy Vernon’s elopement with John Manners. Little wonder Haddon Hall is recognised as one of the most romantic houses in Britain.
