Knowsley Hall

Knowsley Hall literally takes my breath away with its beauty. This landmark has great gardens and some stunning architecture.
Usually used for weddings (oh, one can dream) or conferences and tea parties, Knowsley Hall is a popular and grand venue.
It also offers spa service and has obviously been awarded five stars for accommodation (only five? I’d give it ten!) Even the drive up to the hall is absolutely breathtaking.
One of my favourite places to visit to take photographs or have a peruse around as it has a whole lot of history.
I’m particularly a huge fan of Knowsley because it also has a cracking zoo.

If you can afford it — Knowsley Hall would be a fantastic place to get married… hint hint to the boyfriend! You know what I mean girls!
It is absolutely stunning, a breath taking location and 5* Gold standard for accommodation. There is a wonderful long drive which takes you to the front door. I could just imagine being in my wedding dress feeling amazing, with my new husband beside me, hand in hand, being chaffeured up the drive in an old car. Oh yes oh yes, I can keep dreaming. If of course you don’t have your wedding at Knowsley Hall, you could always have your hen party there and take advantage of the spa packages. But at the prices of the packages, I think it would definitely have to be a rich hen and rich chickens that go along. I will keep dreaming!

Knowsley hall is arguably one of the best venues in our humble region that is the northwest. Situated inside a measley 2,500 acre privately owned estate, boasting a safari park, inhouse catering, spa and accomodation, you’d be hard pressed to find a more extravagent estate in the region.
The venue however is for the majority of time used for special occasions such as weddings and conferences. Although they do hold private events such as tea parties. The grand nature of the Hall obviously dictates its usage for all things opulent. It really is like entering another world as you step inside.
One of the many ways of experiencing the delights of Knowsley hall is to book a spa package. Now it isn’t exactly cheap; £155 per person, but it does include facial, deep scalp massage, head, neck and shoulder massage with fabulous oils of your choice and use of the hydropool and relaxation area. This is followed by coffee and homemade cakes which will boost your energy and prepare you nicely for what is to come. Post cakes and coffee you will be collected by a personal chauffeur to escort you to Knowsley Hall in style. Here you will enjoy a delicious three course lunch prepared by their fantastic team of Chefs avec une glass of Champagne and wine with your meal in an awe inspiring dining room. After dining you can then walk off some calories in stunning surroundings of the estate grounds, to cap off a memorable experience.
All this pampering does come at a cost however as I mentioned and the booking requires a minum of 3 people, so that is forking out a poultry £465 at least.
However as I mentioned, yes there are probably cheaper options but then again this particular package does come with the grand background of a historic estate.
The only other chance to see the Hall is on 5 occasions a year in August when a £12 ticket gets you a tour of the Hall, so I suggest you get booking… its round the corner.

This is an absolutely beautiful building. The surroundings are gorgeous and the hall itself is very impressive. I have only ever been there on corporate functions but they have always been amazing. The food is always of a high standard and makes you want to go back for more. It’s fantastic to see the history of the Earl of Derby whose family have lived there for generations. The building is old and isn’t accessible, unfortunately the only way in for wheelchair users is at the back. The car park is good but doesn’t hold that many cars.

A lovely building & beautiful surroundings. The grounds are just stunning & you get some lovely views of Liverpool & the safari park. They hold various events such as concerts, firework displays & the race for life. A little hidden treasure of Knowsley.
