Helen and Martin Barlow, owners of the Olde Mill in Bardsea, south Cumbria, have expressed their gratitude to the community as they retire and close the business.
The couple took over the Olde Mill in 2007, but their ties to the business date back to the 1970s. After announcing their retirement earlier this year, they bid farewell to the venue earlier this week.
"As we turn off the lights and lock the doors for one final time there are many people we must thank for making the Olde Mill a huge success.
They specifically thanked the wedding couples who trusted them with their special day, saying they enjoyed working with them to make their dream day come true.
