Jervaulx Abbey, family owned since 1971 by the Burdon Family. It is the largest privately owned and privately maintained Cistercian Abbey in the U.K., this means we rely 100% on the entry contributions and weddings to keep this incredible monument safe and open to the public. With our oak framed Summer House licensed for legal ceremonies,
We can host large and small weddings with different options

. Our paddock is filled with wild grass with a avenue leading to your marquees location. The Abbey is kept with nature, peace and tranquillity in mind. With over 200 wild flowers and fauna allowed to flourish in a safe way. A safe haven for wildlife. As a family we closed our Tearooms in 2021, which we had opened in 1994. We made the decision to concentrate on other parts of jervaulx. We have a beautiful 4 bed BnB opening in august 2021 and two hand built luxury Shepard’s huts, visit House and Huts
