The Orgreave and The Ballifield can accommodate up to 50 guests and 15 guests for a banquet style dinner. Couples will also be able to hold both their wedding ceremony and reception at The Old Rectory, as the venue has been granted as wedding licence.
Vine Hotels CEO Garin Davies said: "Tucked away in its own quiet grounds this former rectory offers all the benefits of a quiet countryside locations, but with the convenience of close by transport links and Sheffield City Centre nearby. The Old Rectory is a delightful period property that has huge potential to grow as one of Sheffield's premium wedding and event destinations. We will bring our expertise in venue management and operations to The Old Rectory and restore it to the thriving venue we know it can be."
