Description

Bartons Mill is a unique late 17th century mill formerly known as Old Basing Mill set in the beautiful surroundings of the Hampshire countryside. Just a short distance from Basingstoke town center, Old Basing is a charming village steeped in history. Situated on the River Loddon, Bartons Mill is home to unique wildlife and with a tranquil riverside setting. Our historic building was last working in 1965 and remained a private residence until 1979 when it opened its doors as a restaurant. Renovated to seamlessly merge The Barton’s Mill restaurant and The Millstone Pub to create Barton’s Mill, this site lovingly retains the characterful features of its historical past. Your wedding will take place in our timber-framed venue of our historic building with exposed wood beans and beautifully lit areas that bring a rustic touch to your day. Your guests will enter through your own private entrance, passing by the weir into the Stone Mill, with its own bar, patio, and large garden surrounded by water and nature full of various backdrops for magical memories. With a memorable location, we are a versatile venue that can offer a range of rooms that accommodate between 8 to 160 guests for the ceremony and/or wedding reception exclusively yours for the day. Barton’s Mill is licensed to host civil ceremonies from very Intimate occasions to large celebrations.

The best day!

We had the best day at Bartons Mill. We knew the venue already and always thought it would be a lovely venue - and when it came to deciding on a venue when we got engaged, we actually only looked at one other place as we knew it was perfect for us. The team took SUCH good care of us, and Flo (their events manager) spent so much time helping us and getting to know us. They were happy for us to have our ceremony downstairs, even though it hadn't been done before, and we felt as though we were in very safe hands. It's a beautiful venue, with beams, a watermill, fairy lights, an incredible fireplace downstairs, and is situated by a pretty stream. A perfect place for a cosy, chilled, pub wedding!

Flo the wedding coordinator at Barton’s Mill is simply an angel that walks the Earth, she is amazing. The venue itself was flawless and absolutely beautiful. The bar staff were friendly and above and beyond helpful. Best wedding ever.

Great wedding venue at amazing price

We just had our wedding at Barton's Mill and it was amazing. The venue is beautiful, Flo the wedding coordinator is soo helpful and it is so reasonably priced! The day went without any hiccups and everyone said how incredible it was. The inside is lit with fairy lights downstairs and there is plenty of space for the band and dancefloor, with a private bar. The outside is covered by a perminant marquee and there is a large grass lawn all of this is private. You can get married inside or outside. The nearby chalk stream flows around the private garden. It is so private that you would never even notice that there is another section with a bar for the public. Would 100% recommend it.

Wedding Venue

We can't recommend Flo at Bartons Mill enough our wedding was everything and more the made sure everything went smoothly. It felt like the venue was just ours ad you have a private bit of the pub and we never saw any members of the public. We were extremely happy with how our wedding went and got many compliments from people saying it was the best wedding they had attended.

Best day of our lives

Even though it was already going to be a special day, the staff and venue of Barton’s Mill turned this into an exceptional day. The event co-ordinators Flo and Iwona were simple amazing in the lead up to our day, nothing was too much, any queries we had they answered and dealt with professionally and courteously. All of our plans came together perfectly, the venue fulfilled all of our expectations and we simply couldn’t find fault with our day.

Amazing facilities and support

Bartons Mill was simply the perfect venue for us as it provided a relaxed, yet tasteful and well organized venue. Flo and her team were simply amazing in providing us with maximum flexibility, and they gave us lots of space to decorate and personalize our ceremony. It was such a memorable day, and we would recommend Bartons Mill to anybody who is looking for an intimate and genuine venue with amazing staff!

Wedding ceremony

We had an amazing wedding day at Barton's Mill in Old Basing. We hired the Loddon room upstairs for 40 guests & we had a beautiful ceremony followed by a Hog Roast. It was small, intimate & relaxed, just as we hoped. A big thank you to Flo & her team for making it a very special & memorable day. Thoroughly recommended!

My daughters wedding

Barton’s Mill was the perfect place for our daughters wedding. From the moment we arrived to going to bed at the accommodation on site everything was perfect. The wedding meal was absolutely fantastic and so delicious as was the barbecue in the evening. The staff were wonderful and very accommodating and keeping everyone informed from when photos were due to take place to the bride and groom’s first dance so you never missed out on anything. The accommodation was absolutely gorgeous beautifully decorated and cleaned to a high standard, in the morning after the wedding we enjoyed a delicious breakfast and it was great to see family and friends all chatting about how wonderful the wedding was. I truly would recommend to anyone thinking of getting married at Barton’s Mill to book it, it’s just the perfect place.
