Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa opens the barn door
A summer events space at one of the North East’s top hotels has been given a stylish upgrade.
Every year Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa near Durham erects a marquee which is used from May to September for weddings.
But this time round the award-winning hotel has upped its game – by creating a bespoke, wooden structure which can be used for everything from nuptials to business events.
The Barn Marquee will open this week (29 May) and will be in place until early October, with space for 160 people sitting at round tables or 200 people at a less formal event.
The impressive space has a canvas roof and roll up sides which lead on to landscaped gardens, complete with festoon lighting.
Along with having its own bar, it has its own dedicated barbeque area – with the hotel chefs creating a special menu – as well as pizza van which can be utilised by guests.
Fully heated and with a stone floor, it has been decorated with large floral chandeliers, along with a wall of greenery which provides the perfect backdrop for photographs.
The hotel is holding a showcase evening for the new Barn Marquee on 17 June, where visitors are welcome to drop in between 4.30pm and 6.30pm to see what it has to offer.
John Adamson, owner of Ramside Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa believes there is nothing else like the Barn Marquee in the region.
“Our summer marquee is always really popular and we always have scores of events,” he said.
“But we decided that would now create something unique which keeps all of the most attractive features of a marquee but elevates them to a new level.
“The Barn Marquee is a really versatile space so it’s not just suitable for weddings but for events of all kinds and we look forward to being able to show visitors just what a great option it is.”
