Introducing your dream Wedding Venue : The Woodman Inn

A hidden gem wedding venue in the heart of Yorkshire.

Tucked away in the beautiful countryside of Kirkburton, just outside Huddersfield, lies a venue where charm, elegance, and character come together to create truly unforgettable weddings. The Woodman Inn, a hidden gem in the heart of Yorkshire that’s become a top choice for couples seeking intimate, meaningful celebrations with a personal touch.

The journey of The Woodman Inn into the world of weddings began with a simple yet powerful observation, couples were increasingly seeking smaller, more intimate and personal wedding venues that delivered both style and substance. Recognising this growing demand, the team transformed their 18th century country inn into a boutique-style wedding venue, perfectly tailored for those looking to say "I do" in a relaxed yet elegant setting.

From cosy winter weddings by the fire to sun-soaked summer garden ceremonies, The Woodman Inn provides the perfect backdrop all year round. With exclusive use options, on-site accommodation for you and your guests, and award-winning food and drink, it’s a venue that blends character with convenience.

At The Woodman Inn, no two weddings are the same. Each package is completely tailored to the couple, with flexible options to make your day uniquely yours. From customised menus created by their talented chefs to personalised drinks packages and adaptable accommodation arrangements, everything can be adjusted to suit your vision, your guests, and your budget. Whether you’re dreaming of an intimate candlelit dinner or a lively summer celebration, the team is there to help shape every detail.

Here we talk to their dedicated Events manager:

Can you tell us how your journey in this business began and what  inspired you to start the business?

The Woodman Inn has a long-standing history as a charming 18th-century country inn, but our journey into weddings began when we recognised the growing demand for intimate, character-filled venues in the heart of Yorkshire. With our stunning countryside setting, rustic charm, and dedicated hospitality, transforming The Woodman Inn into a boutique wedding venue was a natural step. Our passion for creating memorable experiences and seeing couples celebrate one of the most special days of their lives has driven us to continually enhance and perfect what we offer.

What’s your favourite part of your job or business? Is there a particular moment that has stood out to you over the years?

One of the best parts of what we do is seeing everything come together on the big day, from the excitement of morning preparations to the first dance under twinkling lights. A standout moment for us is always the look on a couple’s faces when they see the venue beautifully set up for the first time.

How do you help brides through their wedding journey?

From the moment a couple books with us, we offer guidance, support, and expertise to make the planning process as smooth as possible. We also work closely with trusted suppliers to ensure every detail reflects the couple’s vision, and we’re always available to answer questions, provide recommendations, and make sure the lead-up to the big day is stress-free.

What services or packages do you offer?

Our Garden Room is the heart of our wedding venue, providing a light-filled, beautifully designed space for ceremonies and receptions. Every package is tailored to the couple’s needs, with carefully curated wedding menus, drinks packages and overnight accommodation for the couple and guests.

What’s one piece of advice you’d give to brides?

Stay true to your vision and what feels right for you as a couple. It’s easy to get overwhelmed with all the choices and advice, but at the end of the day, your wedding should be about celebrating your love. Also, don’t stress the small details. On the day, the most important thing is soaking up every moment and making amazing memories with your loved ones.

With years of experience and hundreds of weddings behind them, the team offers the heartfelt advice above to every couple.  It’s a simple reminder that your wedding should reflect you, not trends or expectations.

With a team that treats every wedding like their own, you can trust that your special day will be in the best hands.

If you're searching for a wedding venue in Yorkshire that offers charm, flexibility, and heartfelt service, The Woodman Inn might just be your perfect match and a must visit.
