A cameron hall development. Our History Beyond the beauty of Wynyard Hall, evident at first glance, lies a fascinating history, enriched by a huge cast of characters, who all played their part in its remarkable story.

Present Day Over 30 years on since Sir John Hall purchased Wynyard Hall, his dream of leaving an enduring legacy of his time at Wynyard has flourished.

Where we are going As custodians of the estate, it's our job to maintain and evolve this iconic jewel in the North East. We can now add the Hall family to the list of illustrious families at Wynyard. How did you become involved in the estate? My parents bought the estate from the Ninth Marquess of Londonderry in with the aim of creating a large private estate — similar to the gated communities they had been inspired by after a trip to America.

Our family had always realized that old buildings such as Wynyard Hall need an economic use to maintain them and I felt the private Chapel and State Rooms were crying out to be used again as a stunning wedding venue and country house hotel. You led this project.

How did it start and how has Wynyard Hall developed since then? My mother helped me with the interior design and the refurbishment and I initially recruited a general manager, two wedding events coordinators and a chef.

The weddings were a huge success from the start and from there, we developed the bedrooms, the restaurant, the bars, the library and the state rooms. Architect: John Augustus Cory. Architect: Ignatius Bonomi. Martin's Press, Inc. Sir John Hall, Email: reception wynyardhall.
