If you’re looking for a grand setting for your big day, you’ll love The Theatre. It’s one of only eight Grade I listed opera houses in the UK and boasts a 125-year-old curtain depicting Madame Patti on a chariot in Rossini’s last Italian opera. Able to hold 120 of your friends and family, there are plenty of details to admire, including the walls, which are decorated with the names of Patti’s favourite composers.

Once the ceremony has taken place, you can choose from several reception areas, including the Conservatory, which has room for 130 loved ones, and the Music and Billard Room, which can accommodate 120 of your nearest and dearest.

The Patti Bar and Nicolini Lounge are located in the centre of the castle and are also available for your guests to use throughout the night.

We love...
Once home to Adelina Patti, the world-famous opera singer, Craig Y Nos Castle has a long and interesting history dating back to 1841. Your family and friends can organise a tour of the castle to find out more about its fascinating past.
