My girlfriend and I have booked Waterton Park in Wakefield as our wedding venue for next year! Look on this as a pre-review, to be added to once we're married. It's very impressive to look at, being at the end of a long scenic road, passing a large golf course on the way. As you get throught the large metal gates, you can see the old part of the hotel on your left, on it's own small island in the middle of a large lake. The old part of the hotel is reached via an arched footbridge, and it is this that drew us to the venue for our wedding, as it would look great in photos! The rooms themselves are quite impressive, but then we have only sampled the bridal suites and executive rooms. They are all large, some with four-poster beds and most with en-suites. The new part of the hotel, on the other side of the site, is a bit more generic, without the charm or character of the original, but it is large enough for a decent sized reception and civil ceremony. If you do go, ask about the "boat house", which is a reception room on the lower level looking right out over the lake, and which has it's own bar!
