Hoyle Court

Hoyle Court is a historic mansion house on Otley Road in Baildon, near Shipley and Bradford, in the Aire Valley of West Yorkshire. It has a ballroom, a garden room, a terrace and gardens.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

Hoyle Court is a strong fit for couples who want a traditional house with a private feel. A wedding booking gives the wedding party sole use of the venue for the day, so there are no other events alongside yours. The mix of a garden room, a ballroom and a terrace with gardens gives you a natural flow from ceremony to meal to party, and the size suits mid sized guest lists.

Ceremonies

Ceremonies, including civil ceremonies, take place in the long garden room, which holds up to 100 people. It opens into the bar and reception area and out onto a terrace with a stone staircase. The terrace and gardens suit photographs and a drinks reception, and there is a secret garden area for portraits and lawn games.

Receptions and food

The wedding breakfast is served in the main ballroom, which seats up to 120 guests at round tables with white linen. A wedding breakfast menu and wedding packages are available from the venue. Evening barbecues can be arranged on request when you book.

Getting there and the area

Baildon is a village north of Bradford and close to Shipley and Saltaire. There is a car park at the entrance. Saltaire, a World Heritage village, is a short distance away and is good for photographs and a day out. The Aire Valley around Baildon has open moorland on one side and the town centres of Shipley and Bradford on the other, so your guests have plenty of hotels and restaurants to choose from for the night before or after the wedding. Ask the team for local suggestions.
