Angela & Andrew’s wedding at The Great Barn gave us meadow magic, pastel blooms spilling over, dancing in slow motion, and stealing the spotlight.

This is table décor at its most dreamy: wild and totally unforgettable.

Because really… how could you not fall in love with this?

Testimonials

  • I would just like to extend my warmest wishes to all staff at the great barn who made my daughters wedding celebrations a spectacular day. A massive thank you to Jess and her team who provided a wonderful service, and to Jess personally, you really are a class act. The two girls behind the bar, you were terrific and the chefs who turned out a very high quality meal, thank you so much.
    Having worked in hospitality myself for 30 years at every level and ending up as general manager i know firsthand the effort that goes into each event.
    The great barn is a beautiful venue in itself but of course would be nothing without the first class team of utterly professional staff you have on site. This is by far the best wedding i have attended in years, i will certainly be recommending your venue.
    Kindest Regards
    Tony Pearson
    Father of the bride. (Oct 2024)

  • We had our wedding at The Great Barn in May 23. It was the most beautiful venue and the team were fantastic.
    Leading up to the wedding day Laura was very helpful in answering any questions and we felt reassured and in good hands throughout the planning process.
    On the day Sarah and the team were brilliant in ensuring that every detail was taken care of and the day went as smoothly as possible.
    We were lucky to have great weather and our guests really enjoyed the grounds and lawn games. We also stayed in the garden cottage which we would highly recommend to end the day.
    Thank you so much to the whole team!
    Jacqueline and Freddy x

  • We had our wedding at The Great Barn in May 2023.
    Support running up to the big day with all our planning was great. During the day itself, the team were reassuring (very important for the Bride) attentive and discreet throughout the day. It all helped with the most magical day for us both and our guests. We also had the Cottage for the wedding night. Lovely place to wake up as Mr & Mrs!

  • I just wanted to write a quick email to say a huge thank you to you and the team for our amazing wedding on Saturday. It went without a hitch and everything was exactly as I envisioned. I cannot thank you enough. The team working on the day were conscientious, efficient and extremely professional and it ran incredibly smoothly. The venue is obviously also very beautiful and your team kindly decorated it exactly as I planned. Huge thanks to yourself as well for always being extremely helpful and working hard in the background to ensure the day ran smoothly.
