The White Hart

Takeover your own luxury pub & hotel. Renovated in 2023, sleeping up to 40 in the market town of Brigg this luxury venue is perfect for all celebrations, DIY Weddings and corporate breaks.

Think of a large farmhouse but instead of a living room you have your own bar…… oh and it has a snug, attached cottage rooms, function area, large kitchen, riverside beer garden and of course the 15 + 2 bedrooms with enough beds to sleep 40 plus a further capacity for 6 in Cobblers Cottage next door.

A unique luxury waterfront celebration venue, The White Hart Pub has been restored and converted into an exclusive self-catering venue for you to hire.

You will have exclusive use of the whole venue.

Established in 1759 and sitting on the banks of the Old River Ancholme, farmers and traders used to leave their horses and carts in the White Hart pub stables that backed onto Sergeants Brewery. Grand houses ran on both sides, the reading room, Springs factory all now long gone….The White Hart has stood the test of time. In 1978 Ray Neall purchased the pub when it was in a state of disrepair. This was the last time it was renovated, until now!

We have retained the original bar area, increased the large function space, added a high-end kitchen, intimate snugs, games area, landscaped the riverside beer garden and added 15 bedrooms with a further 2 cottage bedroom snugs.

We can be anything you need….from unforgettable family parties, birthdays and anniversaries to spectacular DIY weddings and seriously impressive corporate events and meetings. Perfect for large groups with a flexible space to hold events throughout the year.

This self-catering venue is attractive to people from all over the country with the capacity alone. Why hire a farmhouse when you can hire your own pub!

There’s nowhere quite like The White Hart, Brigg.

For security, the main staircase leading to the first floor bedrooms can only be accessed with your room key electronic fob. The security fob is also used to externally access the cottage rooms.

Cooking & Dining

To ensure catering for a large group is a pleasure, we have thoughtfully designed the kitchen so it flows easily into the front snug and the principal dining area overlooking the riverside garden. The bespoke fitted kitchen has NEFF Appliances installed throughout including three ovens, microwave, two tall fridges, one tall freezer, two dishwashers and a large double sink. The central island features two induction hobs and an additional sink. The kitchen has a breakfast area complete with original pub pews and tables for small groups to enjoy breakfast or a place to sit whilst gathering in the kitchen.

There is generous cupboard storage space in the kitchen and also a separate adjoining pantry stocked with an abundance of cookware, crockery, utensils and glassware for you to use. Washing machine and tumble dryer are provided in the separate utility room at the rear of the kitchen.

Our riverside function area offers flexible table layouts allowing you to seat and dine up to 40 guests in a series of combinations.

As the property is so well equipped whether you wish to cook or use one of our many highly recommended outside caterers, everything you need to put on a meal to remember is provided.

Outdoor Areas

A generous landscaped riverside terrace runs along the length of the main pub, offering outdoor seating, covered outside space and dining areas that benefit from views of The Old River Ancholme. The terrace also has its own private mooring for your exclusive use.

A private parking courtyard for twelve cars is discreetly located at the rear of the pub, accessed through the archway from Bridge Street.

Brigg and Surrounding Area

The White Hart occupies a fabulous position on the ‘Old River Ancholme’ at the entrance into the old Market Square. Brigg is locally renowned as one of the best towns for independent shopping and its fantastic farmers’ market, which is in addition to the traditional market that takes place every Thursday. The snug “courts” and “yards” have the most unusual shops. From finding those special one-off pieces to wedding attire Brigg has it all. With lots of places to eat and drink in walking distance from The White Hart, Brigg really is the quintessential market town.

You can explore the River Ancholme and the rest of the Ancholme Valley by following the Ancholme Valley Way. The path takes you from Brigg all the way to South Ferriby (10 miles) . You can enjoy the path either by foot or cycle, it’s the perfect way to enjoy the riverbank’s beautiful wildlife and diverse landscape.

Your wedding day should be exactly how you want it, which means you get to choose the food and drink you love, dance or listen to the music you like and have the decorations you want without any wedding premiums.

DIY Weddings

Is there anything worse than a ‘wedding package’ where you must have this… if you choose that? And if you want that option, it will cost you twice as much because there’s an R in the month?

The White Hart is a former pub and hotel and can be your perfect DIY wedding venue. Your wedding day should be exactly how you and your partner want it which means you get to enjoy the food and drink you love, dance or listen to the music you like and have the decorations you want.
