This branch of Village Hotels is in Blackpool, Lancashire. It’s set in an expansive area of greenery, not far from Marton Mere nature reserve and Blackpool Zoo. Despite this location, it’s only 20 minutes walk from the town centre, home to the famous tower, its ballroom, and the illuminations. The decor is contemporary and sleek throughout and there’s an outdoor pool, gym and large veranda overlooking the surrounding gardens. Rooms start at £58 a night.
This rural and yet accessible location means Village Hotel is a great wedding venue. It can hold up to 400 guests across its grounds and the sizable banqueting room and also offers a dedicated wedding planning service. Weddings are offered in packages, all of which include six months complimentary Village Gym Health and a Wellness membership.
The love package is perfect for those who want a stress-free day, with wedding coordinators taking care of the finer details, meaning all you have to do is invite up to 100 guests. There’s also the big night package, everything you need to create a wedding ceremony to remember, including DJ hire, a red carpet and a cake stand and knife.
Wedding food options are the traditional three course sit down meal followed by an evening buffet. Options for the former include chicken liver pate to start, lemon and tarragon chicken breast for main, and salted caramel and chocolate tart for dessert. Complementing the food is a host range of three drinks packages (the fizz, the sparkle, and the magic) which vary on whether champagne or prosecco is served and the amount of wine guests can have with their meal.
