The character of a 17th-century building gives couples a backdrop with genuine depth and texture, which translates beautifully on camera. We always work closely with the venue team on the day to make the most of every space available.

You can get in touch with us through our website to check availability for your date and have a chat about what you are looking for. We cover weddings across the North East and Yorkshire region and are always excited to work at venues with this kind of period charm and character.

How easy is it for guests to get to Tankersley Manor?

Tankersley Manor sits very close to the M1 motorway in South Yorkshire, which makes it one of the more straightforward venues to reach by car from across the region and further afield. For guests travelling without a car, the surrounding area of South Yorkshire has good rail connections, and many couples arrange local taxi or transfer options to help guests get to and from the venue comfortably.

Does Tankersley Manor have accommodation for the wedding couple and guests?

Yes, as a hotel Tankersley Manor has on-site accommodation, which is one of the real advantages of choosing a venue like this for your wedding. Being able to stay the night means the couple and close family or friends do not have to worry about travelling after the celebrations, and it gives the whole day a more relaxed, unhurried feel. We always recommend confirming room availability and any block-booking arrangements directly with the venue team when you start planning.

What makes a converted manor house venue different from a purpose-built wedding venue?

A converted manor house like Tankersley Manor carries a sense of history and authenticity that purpose-built venues can find hard to replicate, with original architectural features, traditional proportions and a feeling that the building has its own story. For photography and film especially, that character adds a lot, giving images a warmth and depth that feels timeless rather than of-the-moment. At the same time, Tankersley Manor pairs that period charm with modern hotel facilities, so couples get the best of both worlds.
