We can now offer the exciting opportunity to hold both your wedding ceremony and wedding breakfast within this historic environment*. The Chapel and surrounding garden, designed for entertaining guests of the Bowes-Lyon family, forms part of the inner pleasure grounds of Gibside. A wonderful backdrop for a perfect day!
