We are absolutely delighted to announce that we have won the Wedding Venue (Hotel) Of The Year award at The Wedding Industry Awards for the East Midlands region!
After such a challenging year for the whole of the hospitality industry, it makes winning this award even more special for us – especially considering the strength of the other finalists in our category.
We are proud of the recognition that this award will bring not just for The Maynard, but the whole of the Peak District.
In 2022 we plan to build on this success even further – we are currently in the final stages of a new round of refurbishments to even further improve our special venue, ensuring every wedding day at The Maynard is perfect.

“The award is a testament to the sterling and tireless efforts of our wedding and events teams over the past year and is fully deserved recognition for our passionate and hard-working people.“
“The planning, insight and dedication from the team that goes into ensuring each special day is perfect is hugely inspirational.”
“Thank you, from me and everyone else here at The Maynard!” – Rob Hattersley – Managing Director
Whether it is an intimate celebration or a grand dinner and dance, The Maynard is a unique and stylish choice for an unforgettable day in the heart of the Peak District with breathtaking views across the Hope Valley.
The Chatsworth Suite is our exclusive wedding space and the recent makeover in January 2022 only serves to enhance the elegance of this room. Through beautiful original features, this ballroom assists in creating a vision of style for bespoke weddings.

It is licensed to hold civil wedding ceremonies and civil partnerships for up to 130 day guests and 200 evening guests. Our experienced wedding and events manager, Soraya Ferrer, will guide and advise you each step of the way, helping you to design the envisaged day that is personalised to you.
The hotel has 19 boutique bedrooms, including the ‘Sir Don Bradman Suite’, for our wedding couple to stay on the wedding night (subject to availability). Discounted accommodation rates are applied for wedding guests wishing to stay over, inclusive of breakfast.
And the best news – we still have limited availability for 2022, and onwards into 2023 and 2024. For more information or to book a visit, email us at events@the-maynard.com.
