Eden Barn Full Description
From the vaulted ceiling, to the exposed stone walls and limestone flagged floor, our traditional 200-year-old Westmorland stone barn offers a unique rustic elegance that can be tailored to suit any style conscious couple’s theme. Enter through our traditional oak barn doors and walk up the aisle surrounded by all the character you could wish for, before you and your partner exchange vows under our enchanting canopy of festoon lights, or under our handcrafted outdoor pavilion with its stunning scenic backdrop. For couples seeking a church wedding, there are several beautiful historic churches nearby. In addition to the main barn we have a spacious adjoining Reception/Bar area with a striking floral canopy, cosy seating areas, and timber panelled bathrooms. Our newly created Couples lounge is available pre ceremony to get ready in and post ceremony exclusively for the couple. Guests are also able to enjoy our outside areas, which offer stunning views of the surrounding scenery from a landscaped lawn, outdoor sunken seating area as well as an undercover Tuscan inspired terrace adjoining the main barn. Eden Barn is run by the Harker family and we are conscious that this is your day and we want to make our venue feel special to you. With experience of over 300 unique & personal weddings you are in safe hands. Catering is provided by our sole supplier Southcott Events, who can create bespoke menus using locally sourced produce, and serve your evening food in style from ‘The Shack’. The accommodation brochure on our website (www.edenbarn.co.uk) highlights local places to stay, starting within the village itself. We also have an on-site business from which you can hire tables and chairs. We are located in Little Musgrave, 3 miles from both Kirkby Stephen and Brough, and 4 miles from the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The nearest train station is 5 miles away. Eden Barn is also close to Appleby and Ravenstonedale.

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Cliff, Owner
Hello, let me tell you the story .... Eden Barn started when the Barn on our farm was restored for the wedding of our eldest daughter Andrea in 2015. The day was magical and, through couple requests, we opened our doors so you could enjoy your own Wedding at Eden Barn. My wife Carolyn and daughters Andrea and Julia, would love to meet your show you around either virtually or in person!

The most magical day

We had our wedding at Eden Barn this August, and it was truly a dream come true. Living in Dubai, all our initial meetings were on Zoom, but we knew before even visiting in person that the venue and the Harker family were perfect for us. When we finally came home and saw it in person, we were blown away. From the stunning outdoor ceremony area to the meadows, the incredible bar, and the beautiful space where we had our wedding breakfast, it was exactly the style we wanted—glamorous yet personal. We’d hoped for over a year to have our ceremony outside, and although the morning of 4th August was touch-and-go with the weather, Cliff, Andrea, and Carolyn were incredibly flexible and worked right up to the line to ensure our outdoor wedding could go ahead. (Sorry for the stress!) Andrea was so supportive, understanding every little detail I wanted to include, and even helped me grab my bouquet and get the girls in order before the ceremony. Cliff, an absolute star, handled all the "man jobs" perfectly, and my dad told me he had some lovely chats with Cliff during the day, telling me what a great man he is! And everyone needs a Carolyn in their life—she kept me in check and made sure we stuck to the schedule. Everything flowed seamlessly. Eden Barn itself is stunning—a beautiful, cosy, and warm place to celebrate with family and friends. But for us, it wasn’t just the venue; it was the people. Without the Harker family, our day wouldn’t have been the same. Thank you for accommodating all our wishes and making our wedding the most incredible day of our lives!

The most magical day come true

As cliche as it sounds, the moment we walked into the venue, we knew that it was the one. From the rustic, thoughtful decor to the incredible couple who had it all come to life, Eden Barn ticked every single one of our boxes. In fact, it was pretty much my Pinterest dream! Carolyn, Cliff, Andrea & Julia were simply the most perfect hosts. They ensured that every need of ours was met, that any pre-wedding nerves were soothed and ensured the whole day ran accordingly. We will be forever grateful for the effort, care and attention that went into every aspect of our special day. Thank you so much Eden Barn for literally making our dreams come true!

The best day of our entire lives

We honestly couldn't thank the team at Eden Barn for making our day so special! The weather was absolutely awful but the team went above and beyond to make sure our day went to plan. Even catching my veil as the wind pulled it from my hair on the way to the barn!! 💕 Thank you so much!

A perfect rustic venue

We had the pleasure of having our wedding at Eden Barn earlier this year and it was the best decision we made. The venue is a stunning barn conversion that housed rustic seating for our meal and night do, but with a gorgeous recently renovated bar in the next room. As soon as we started the planning process the staff were extremely helpful and had all the literature we could need to make our choices. All the staff were also great on the day and myself and my now wife didn’t have to think about a thing. We were also lucky enough to have nice weather on the day so we could make use of the stunning outside space for the ceremony and pictures. Including the adjoining field and stream which the photographer had free use of.

Our dream wedding day!

We can't put into words how perfect our wedding was at Eden Barn. The Harker family are simply wonderful at what they do, the entire process was smooth and stress free from the planning to the day itself. The venue is absolutely stunning, and they dressed it exactly in line with our vision for the day. So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue is and how amazing the staff were. The team at Eden Barn co-ordinated everything perfectly with all of our vendors. We had lots of people saying it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. We would recommend Eden Barn to any couples looking for a relaxed wedding in an incredible venue!

Eden Barn March 24

Myself and my wife got married here in March 2024. We couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. Blown away by the service we received. Not only on the wedding day but from the day we first walked through the doors, to view the venue. Eden barn is family ran and the harker family go the extra mile to ensure every detail is executed to your needs. 10/10 would recommend. The Mohun’s

Wow wow wow!!

What can I say? I have honestly had the best day of my life. I felt like I was a guest at my own wedding, Eden Barn took the stress away from the minute we walked into the bridal room to get ready, they were so attentive, always making sure we were having an amazing day and everything ran like clockwork from behind the scenes. We knew from the moment we visited the venue that this is where we would book for our wedding 2 and a half years ago and it exceeded all expectations. The family are so lovely and genuinely care about each and every wedding, the grounds are stunning and the organisation has been exceptional. I would do it all again in a heartbeat exactly as it happened, everyone says it is the best day of their life but I know it would not of been half as good without this amazing venue. Thank you so so much!

Absolutely perfect!!

I cannot fault Eden Barn one bit. From the moment we visited to scope out the venue for our wedding day I knew it was the place we were going to get married. Our whole experience was completely seamless, Eden Barn are faultless and so well organised, we really had nothing to worry about during the whole process. The day itself was absolutely amazing, despite the horrendous weather we got on the day, it did not matter at all and getting married inside the barn itself as opposed to outside (as we had planned) was so gorgeous and was a really romantic setting inside. All of our guests commented on how beautiful Eden Barn was and the food from Southcotte caterers was unreal. So many of our guests said it was the best wedding food that they’d ever had!! Eden Barn is just the perfect wedding venue and Carolyn, Cliff, Julia and Andrea are really friendly and extremely professional. I cannot rate them highly enough!!
