Venue

The venue will be the "Holiday Inn", Ellesmere Port / Cheshire Oaks.

This page will be developed as we get more details of facilities and logistics. Currently we have details of local accommodation and attractions. (If you want to stay over and see a bit of Cheshire while there.)

For venue directions click here.

The venue was booked to be "The Grange Restaurant and Country Club" in Thornton Hough, Wirral. Unfortunately, we have reached a point where they are unable to convince us that a wedding booking accepted after our own will not impact our day and therefore they have strongly suggested we cancel.

We appreciate that some people will be travelling a long way to join our special day. (Also some people who live closer may be too paralytic to find their way home.) For this reason you'll find details below of some accommodation choices we know of in the area below.

As some people will be travelling there may be some of you planning to make it a long weekend. If so, this is our rough guide to our favourite attractions in the Cheshire / Merseyside area. If you've any specific questions then contact the companies direct or a local tourist information office. However, you can always email weddinghelp@chriskeen.co.uk and we'll do our best to make suggestions too!
