Located just one mile from the Darlington crematorium this stunning victorian property is the ideal place to share memories of a loved one with family and friends. We have a selection of function rooms to choose from to suit smaller intimate gatherings and also much larger receptions held in the ballroom.

Losing a loved one can be difficult, and planning a wake for a funeral can be overwhelming, but we are here to provide an excellent range of services, and our venue can be tailored to suit your individual needs. Our highly experienced team will help you organise the wake at our beautiful venue in Darlington and will arrange a funeral reception, catering, florists, room layouts and everything else involved with a gathering of this nature.

From £13 per person, choose from a range of flexible menu options for your reception. From morning and afternoon teas to finger buffets and sit-down meals, let us know what you’d like, and we’ll make it happen. We have a licensed bar and car parking is available at the hotel for smaller gatherings with additional car parking nearby if necessary.
