To personalise your wedding? This is the venue!

In April 2024, we got married at this remote venue. We picked Hawke Barn as we were just surround by views of the countryside and loved the rustic vibe of the barn. We cannot thank the staff enough for making the day one to remember. We wanted an ‘us’ day which is what we got, and it was super chilled with family fun running through it. We liked the flexibility to make the day what we wanted. Us and our family stayed for the weekend in the cottages to continue the celebrations!

Our magical day

We had an amazing time at Hawke Barn venue for our wedding. The rustic setting was perfect, and everything went smoothly. The staff was friendly and made sure all the details were handled. It was exactly the laid-back, cozy atmosphere we were looking for. Highly recommend for a relaxed and beautiful wedding day!

Perfect wedding venue

Our wedding at Hawke Barn was everything we hoped for and more! The location is fantastic and the views from the lawn are stunning, especially as this is where we had loads of our golden hour photos taken. The Hawke Barn team made us feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The whole day ran so smoothly, and we received so many lovely comments about the venue from our guests. We had such an amazing wedding day and we couldn’t recommend Hawke Barn more highly! Love, Becca and James

What a wonderful location Hawke Barn is - sheltered yet with fabulous views. The barn itself has all the facilities you would expect, and is bright and welcoming. Having all the horses around was a real bonus too, and gave ample photo opportunities! It was especially nice for the bride and groom and several family members to be able to stay in the deluxe cottages onsite. Everyone involved were so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble. I would thoroughly recommend Hawke Barn as a wedding venue
