The beautifully restored Kimbridge Barn is simple yet stunning.
Authentic wooden beams and rustic chandeliers create a charming and relaxed feel, while large windows help to provide a light and airy space. Within The Barn, they can accommodate all your wedding essentials, including a dining area, bar, seating area and dance floor, and the adjacent courtyard provides a pretty backdrop for photographs of your big day.
Lovingly restored with authentic wooden beams and rustic chandeliers, The Barn is serene and romantic. Large windows flood the space with natural light, and the doors open onto a picturesque courtyard adorned with its own bar, low-level seating, and two fire pits, creating a magical atmosphere as the evening unfolds. This versatile canvas is yours to transform, inviting you to bring your unique wedding vision to life and create an expression of your style and love.
Adjacent to The Barn, The Boot Room offers a warm and cosy retreat, perfect for welcoming guests, hosting a drinks reception, or providing a quiet space for relaxation amidst plush lounge seating. Its doors opening onto the courtyard make it an ideal setting for intimate ceremonies or smaller gatherings.
Every aspect of your wedding day is seamlessly catered for, from the dining area and bar to the seating area and dance floor, with the adjacent courtyard providing a picturesque backdrop for capturing cherished moments. The dedicated team, committed to making your day perfect, is ready to craft a bespoke menu that reflects your tastes and delights your guests.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Kimbridge Barn ?
Emma and Jake, with many years of planning, many hours of discussing their wedding with our events team, many doggy biscuits eaten by Bramble their dog, we really took time to ensure all the details were covered – there was surprises for the bride (from the groom) surprises for the groom (from the bride) and surprises for the guests too – it took hours of planning but all the surprises kept the guests and couple on their toes throughout the day and made it extra special party to celebrate the wedding!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Take time for yourselves through the day as it will pass by extremely quickly and you will want to soak it all in.
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
The groom sourced the brides favourite flower and had the florist add one to every persons place setting as a surprise.

Rustic, relaxed, bohemian, unique, romantic.
Where’s the best photo spot at Kimbridge Barn ?
The River Test adjacent to us provides some stunning golden hour / sunset photographs.
Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Kimbridge Barn ?
Not yet but never say never!
What’s your favourite canapé?
Either our BBQ pork belly with Szechuan pepper, ginger and coriander or charcoal cheddar arancini with truffle mayo. Delicious!
What’s your favourite midnight treat?
It would have to be our freshly made pizza from our wood-fired ovens. One of our personal favourites is the Rosary goats cheese
with roasted fig and honey.
What is Kimbridge Barn most unique feature?
Our beautifully restored 19th century Barn is the standout feature of our venue, with sky high ceiling and wooden beams - it's stunning! The most surprising would be our private courtyard, leading off the Barn, with it’s charming outside bar, comfortable low-level furniture and fire-pits. Perfect for arrival drinks and canapes.
What part of your business are you most proud of?
The entire events team who dedicate hours of time into each wedding, taking time to getting to know our couples and really understanding the important elements – many couples become apart of our ‘Kimbridge family’. They pop in over weekends and are always welcomed back.
