PERFECT DAY

AN IDYLLICAS UNIQUE AS YOURCOUNTRY MANOR ESTATE

Built in 1903 for the Peel family, Colshaw Hall is an elegant, Grade II listed Tudor style manor house, surrounded by beautiful Cheshire countryside. The Hall has been the family home of David and Heather Irlam and their three children, Lucy, James and Georgina, since 2002.

Having lovingly restored the property, the Irlam family are now giving you and your guests the opportunity to experience the splendour of the Hall and its magnificent grounds, by choosing Colshaw Hall as the venue for your wedding or special event.

Offering exclusivity on your special day, the manor house and banqueting suite can be tailored to your individual requirements so that you can plan and host a joyous wedding that you and your guests will never forget. The Irlam family and their experienced, caring staff are on hand to help you create your own piece of family history by ensuring your dream wedding becomes reality.

Designated by English Heritage as a Grade II listed building in 1984, Colshaw Hall was designed by renowned architect John Douglas of Douglas and Minshull of Chester. Other Douglas commissions include buildings for Liberal Prime Minister W.E. Gladstone and soap magnate W. H. Lever. Colshaw Hall has a rich history and has been an important part of the Over Peover community for over a hundred years and was even used as an auxiliary hospital during the First World War. Acquired by the Irlam family in 2002, the Hall has been sympathetically restored and during 2012 a new banqueting suite was created completing the Hall’s conversion into an exclusive wedding venue.
