20 years of the Naylor Era at Peckforton Castle
Celebrate two decades of memories with us...
On the 20th June 2006, a new chapter began in the story of Peckforton Castle. The castle was the first property in what would later become the Boutique Hotel Group by the Naylor family, who have lovingly taken care of the Castle and invested into it, to create a dream destination for weddings, inspired by Chris Naylor’s own wedding at the Castle in 2005.
Over the last 20 years, thousands of couples have had their fairytale wedding at Peckforton Castle. Along the way, challenges were faced by our family business – including the devastating fire of 2011. And like so many, we adapted through the unprecedented years of COVID. Together, we rebuilt, recovered, and welcomed love back through our doors.
We continued to invest in the Castle, with beautifully refreshed interiors and guest experiences, including the launch of The Retreat – an exciting new addition to our private accommodation for groups, which launched in Spring 2026.
The Castle has also become an iconic backdrop for film, television, and celebrity celebrations.
