Exterior of Yorkshire venue Oakwood at Ryther

What can you expect from The Oakwood at Ryther?
Sitting in the middle of the North Yorkshire countryside, the exclusive-use Oakwood at Ryther offers peace and tranquillity with undisturbed views across fields and woodland. Outside is a beautiful courtyard and landscaped garden, while inside the generations-old family farm has been beautifully adapted for weddings. Using original features and reclaimed materials, master craftsmen have injected character into the barns with a focus on old-meets-new styling; modern glass elements blend seamlessly into rustic brickwork and traditional oak beams.

Time to celebrate!
There are two indoor celebration spaces for up to 200 ceremony guests and 250 reception guests, as well as the pretty Courtyard for al fresco ceremonies. The stunning Ceremony Hall boasts statement oak arches, a showstopping fairylight wall and a champagne bar. The Old Grain Barn oozes a rustic-luxe vibe with original beams, twinkling chandeliers and a feature staircase leading to a cocktail lounge on the mezzanine. Both spaces have everything the modern couple could need for the perfect celebration.

We love...
A lovingly restored 17th-century barn now forms part of the accommodation offering. Sleeping up to 32 guests in 15 king-size en suite bedrooms, its open plan layout is perfect for friends and family to get together.
