Your Cheshire & Merseyside Wedding - November/December 2019 (Issue 48)

KNOWSLEY HALL 0151 489 4827 knowsleyhallvenue.co.uk We love… The abundance of breathtaking historical features including the ornate ceilings, sweeping grand staircase and the library’s magnificent book collection. Steeped in history, the Hall is packed with original features dating back to the 14th century. From the grand State Dining Room with its huge chandelier and portraits of previous aristocratic residents to the romantic Stucco Ballroom with its gold-encrusted ceiling detail where Queen Elizabeth II once dined during her visit to Knowsley. Home to the Earl and Countess of Derby, the Hall provides a captivating backdrop for your nuptials, having welcomed royalty and distinguished guests since 1495. Despite its grandeur, the venue still offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere boasting stunning views of its manicured gardens and 2,500 acres of private parkland. You’re also treated to a complimentary food tasting and use of the luxury honeymoon suite on the wedding night.
