Believe the hype!!

Barns & Yard is the perfect wedding venue. The venue itself is stunning - the renovations and landscaping have been done so thoughtfully and to such a high standard, and the surrounding area is both beautiful and peaceful. There are so many different spaces which was perfect for being able to bring all our ideas to life, while giving our guests lots of room to be comfortable. Staying at the onsite accommodation all weekend really allowed us to switch off and enjoy (the rest of our immediate families stayed down the road at The Swan Inn which worked really well). And lastly but most importantly, the team is just amazing!! Communication was incredible before the wedding, no question was too much, and on the day Kate and the team could not have done more, everything was seamlessly executed exactly as planned. If you want somewhere modern and luxury but down to earth with historic charm, where you can stay for the full weekend and be looked after with care and attention to detail, don't hesitate to invest in Barns & Yard - you won't regret it!

A stunning location and a stand out team

Barns and Yard is a simply stunning venue and the Barns and Yard team is incredible. They ensured that the truly stand out location was matched with a keen eye for detail during the planning phase and on the day itself. Everything was thought of, provided and managed to the highest quality, yet the atmosphere was relaxed and completely stress free. Thank you, Barns and Yard for such dedication to making our wedding so perfect.

Our wedding day!!

We cannot thank Lisi, Kate, Nicky and all the Barns & Yard team enough for all their hard work and support that went into making our wedding day so perfect. They were the dream team to work with and nothing was too much trouble for us or our families. The venue and grounds are stunning and we loved staying in the cottages for the weekend. We truly had the best day ever!!

Beautiful wedding venue

From start to finish the team at Barns and Yard have all been amazing with us and we can't thank them enough for that. We had the best day of our lives and they made it run so perfectly. We feel very lucky to be the first couple to have an outdoor ceremony with them this year and we are so happy that we were able to have the ceremony by the lake and use all of the beautiful grounds! The cottages are amazing and we had so many compliments from our family and friends about how gorgeous the venue is! It’s been great getting to know you all over the months and we will hopefully cross paths in the future!

The Wedding of our dreams

Barns and Yard A venue we happened to find on a google search during COVID. I fell in love straight away just looking at the photos, made contact with the venue to have a look around. Lisi and Kate were incredible from the offset, letting us explore the venue on our own. Walking through the building explaining what to expect on the day. We were won over straight away booking our date straight away. Right from this point it was all so smooth with regular emails to check how our planning was coming along. Lisi, Kate and Nicky have a fantastic family touch of making you feel part of the team. They sent Christmas cards at Christmas, sympathy cards for when my Dad sadly passed. All of these small touches that meant everything. Moving on to the BIG day. It could not have gone any better you have full access to the venue from 1pm the Friday before meaning you can set up and have all delivers brought to you in more than enough time. Myself and the bridesmaids stayed in the cottages the night before with the self catering plenty of room we were really able to sit and relax having those last giggles and memories together. Saturday swiftly came all systems go! Hair and make up were doing their thing, we have fizz on the go and everything was great. Nerves started to kick in but all of the tribe kept me going! 2pm was looming we started to get excited seeing the guest through the window they all looked incredible. I could not wait to be part of the celebrations! 2pm was here it was time to walk down everything was perfect finally me and Nathan could see each other. Walking down to 'somewhere over the rainbow' was perfect. Tears of happiness and joy were everything. Before we knew the ceremony was coming to an end. I wanted to pause the room and take it all in. Moving on to the confetti, drinks and nibbles every single person saying how incredible the venue was how pretty every touch was. Space for people to spread, space for people to explore and space for the children to be children and be safe. Next up was our meal, Barns and Yard recommending Sticky Fig, They did not disappoint the burgers was outstanding and everybody tucking in to every bit of food. Every moment of our day was effortless, down to the incredible team at Barns and Yard picking up the bits that you do not think about, ensuring the music in playing on time. Making sure the guest were all happy and ok! The day of our dreams was coming to an end, of course we didn't want it all to stop but the team were ready to ensure everyone got back ok and safe. We had loaded fries and cake waiting for us in our room which was amazing! Finally it was as though the magic elves had come and cleaned up the barns putting all of our decorations safety to one side ensuring everything was kept in great condition. We had until 12.30 to leave the following Sunday morning meaning more than enough time to enjoy breakfast, and reminisce over the day before. We could not thank Lisi, Kate, Nicky and the team enough for our day. We would love to do it all again in a flash! Thank you Nathan and Emily Williams

We knew instantly this was where we wanted to hold our Wedding

My wife and I got married here just over a week ago, and we are yet to think of an appropriate adjective to summarise how blown away we were by the venue, but more importantly, the people behind the venue! First of all, this was the one and only venue we viewed when looking at potential venues. We loved it so much that we didn’t even bother attending any other scheduled viewings at other venues because we knew instantly that this was where we wanted our wedding to be. It is STUNNING! And the love, care and attention to detail that has been put in becomes evident the minute you walk in. The standard that everything has been done out to is a real credit to the team. The barns, the courtyard, the lawn, the cottages, the bar, everything was to an impeccable standard and wowed us each time we visited, and certainly wowed all of our guests on the day! But surprisingly, the most impressive thing about Barns & Yard isn’t the venue… it is Lisi, Kate and Nicki. You guys are honestly amazing and Charlotte and I can’t thank you enough for making our day as memorable as it will be! If anyone is thinking of booking Barns & Yard, then if seeing the quality of the venue won’t sway you, then meeting the team certainly will. The whole day was perfect and ran like clockwork. Nothing was too much to ask and every little thing was taken care of, meaning that we were free to enjoy our special day. Don’t tell my wife, but I will definitely be having my next wedding at Barns & Yard 😉

The venue & team were nothing short of spectacular

The venue and team at Barns & Yard were nothing short of spectacular! When we went for a venue viewing, everyone was so friendly and excited to talk about our wedding day with us. They really took care of us in the lead up to the wedding as well; they stayed in touch with us and helped me shape some ideas for the day too. You can tell everyone is so passionate about what they do and it really adds to your own excitement! I could not recommend Barns & Yard enough as a venue!
