The Little Theatre really is a fantastic venue, which had all required amenities and was lovely and warm. All those attending were most impressed and beats a village hall any day!

"The setting at Escrick Park was a perfect back drop for our wedding reception. The Estate were really helpful in the run up and the extra little touches that they provided helped make the day run really smoothly. All our guests commented on the fab location as well as the wonderful views, a big success all round"

Hazel and Adam

Thank you so much for all of your help and support with our wedding. You were brilliant and Escrick Park was beautiful, everyone loved it. A huge thank you for answering all our questions and for thinking of everything. The straw bales were genius - the children played on them day and night. Thank you!

P & J

Just a quick word to say thankyou for all your assistance with wedding prep. We all had an absolutely wonderful day as a result of the combination of our family and friends with the three great venues. The little theatre was perfect for our relaxed ceremony and the setting was magical. The woodland area was a welcome cool break from the sun and was perfect for the tea party. Then the marquee came into its own with the dinner, speeches, dancing and games. We certainly chose the right wedding venue.

Helen and Henneke

We had the most wonderful wedding ceremony i the Little Theatre. I personally don't think there is anywhere else in the York area that can match the atmosphere at Skipwith Hall and we are so happy we chose it! Escrick Park team all made it far too easy, so now I'm wondering why other people think weddings are stressful!

"Thanks a million to all at Escrick Park for the efforts made to make our day so special. The singage and grass cutting was all so appreciated and we had lots of lovely comments regarding the black sheep in the park - our guests thought we have shipped them in specially"
