The reclaimed vintage and rustic interior has been lovingly curated to bring you a truly bespoke venue that can host up to 225 guests. Licensed for ceremonies inside the barn, outside under the oak framed pagoda or exclusively by the riverside. Vernacular metals and timbers each with their own story, dotted with interesting antique finds, softened at the edges with flora and foliage. Chat around fire pits, retreat to bell tents and cabins set in meadowland down by the pond. Festoon lit outdoor space. Family run venue.

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Chris
Making my vision become a reality, using reclaimed materials and re-purposing them in Ghyll Barn has been such an enjoyable experience. By designing and building this venue personally, you could say it was my passion. With a keen interest in festivals, friendships, food, music and fun times I wanted to create a place that focused around that vibe. I'm also a big believer in people just being themselves, enjoying who they are and being who they want to be. We're not formal or normal!

THE best venue in Cumbria!

Everything from start to finish was absolutely no hassle at all. ‘it’s your day, you have it exactly how you want it’ and that’s what we did. Couldn’t have been more helpful, kind or relaxed if they tried. They made what could be an incredibly stressful time, easy. We got married in Larl Barn which is absolutely stunning. THE best venue in Cumbria. Everything is so well thought out.Thank you everyone! The Douthwaites x

AMAZING place!

Can’t speak highly enough about Chris, Lisa and all the team at Ghyll Barn. It is a beautiful place, so unique and full of character. We had our wedding there in June this year and it was the best day of our lives. Everything in the run up and on the day was smooth sailing. The team are super helpful, nothing is too much trouble, super flexible, just brilliant. Wish we could do it all over again!

The venue is just amazing

We can’t thank all of you at Ghyll Barn enough. Nothing was too much trouble, any queries or minor issues on the day were dealt with instantly and any worry taken off our hands. The venue is just amazing, all of our guests said the same, you have done an incredible job and it’s just the perfect set up for a wedding! We’re just sad it’s all over, wish we could do it again! Thanks for dealing with all our suppliers on the day & for being so responsive and helpful with everything!

After viewing other venues nowhere else compared

So helpful and friendly, nothing was too much to ask. We were married in the little barn, followed by drinks on the terrace and the meal and wedding party in the main barn. We had access from the Friday morning to decorate how we liked, and spent our wedding night in the Helm Hut - the perfect end to the best day. Ghyll Barn is quirky and unique, and our guests haven't stopped talking about what an amazing venue it is. We feel very lucky to have held our special day here.

Cumbrian September Wedding!

The perfect venue for a wedding in the beautiful Eden Valley, Cumbria! From start to finish, the team at Ghyll Barn have been fantastic - nothing was ever too much trouble and they worked with us to find solutions to all of our requests - some of which were quite niche! The space has been beautifully curated with reclaimed and salvaged materials to such a high standard - it is a truly unique space that can enhance your wedding styling to the next level. There are loads of fantastic local suppliers around who you can bring in to tailor the day to your needs perfectly - from bands, flowers and catering - they are all top class in the area! Drop the team an email and go and have a look around - you won't regret it!

What can I say but thank you!

Catered for everything that we wanted, nothing was too much for them and the communication from them was excellent. We were able to have our ceremony at the venue,we chose the beautiful area by the stream that runs at the bottom of the site. Amazing to have the ceremony/reception in the same place and out in the countryside.The connections Ghyll barn had really helped choose things like hair and makeup, catering and other essentials for a wedding.

Best day of our lives at Ghyll Barn!!

Where do i start with this fantastic venue. When booking our wedding we knew we wanted somewhere private, quirky and somewhere our guests had never been before and then Ghyll Barn popped up! It ticked all the boxes and we were blown away when we first came to visit and couldnt get over all the little features, the disco ball in the toilets, the backdrop made out of old doors, the up cycled mirror plus all the other quirky items with a story to tell. Chris and the team have been so helpful and were quick to respond to any emails (i’m a-bit of a perfectionist but any suggestions or concerns i had were sorted quickly and easily). We had access to the venue the day before and after which was perfect for setting up and clearing away the following day. Chris and Lisa understood our vision for the day and strongly encouraged any idea’s we had! On the wedding day, Chris (Chief Nodder) was cool, calm and collected and put me at ease straight away. I’ll never forget the moment me and my dad were about to walk down the aisle - the kindness he showed us and the excitement he seemed to have was a lovely touch - even the next day he was raving about our day and couldn’t wait to talk to us about it which was lovely (you definitely wouldn’t get that personal touch at some of the bigger hotels ect in the lakes and it feels like you are part of the ghyll barn family) Thank you Ghyll barn for hosting the best day ever.
