The Best Venue Out There

I could not think of a more perfect venue than Moat Hall for our day. The Barn and outside spaces are absolutely perfect for all sizes and styles of wedding and have been finished really well. Amy and Ben are lovely hosts, Ben was so friendly and helpful on the day absolutely nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much for making our day so amazing, it really was the best day of our lives.

Amazing DIY Venue

This venue is truly stunning. We loved the vision Amy and Ben had for the barn back in 2022 and didn’t hesitate to choose it for our special day. The view, the grounds and the barn are all beautiful. We chose to have our ceremony outdoors and our wedding breakfast in the barn, to finish the day we had a tipi on the paddock. Everything was amazing and we could really put our stamp on the venue with it being a DIY venue which was super important to us. I can’t recommend moat hall barns more, thank you so much again!

Highly recommend

We would highly recommend Moat Hall barns to any couple for their wedding. We had a brilliant experience with Amy and Ben right from the beginning. We are 100% happy that we chose them for our special day. The venue is just stunning and finished to such a high standard. Our guests and I couldn’t have wished for a better day at Moat Hall. We chose to have our ceremony in the beautiful hayloft of the barn. The outside grounds offered amazing space, the children had a lovely day and enjoyed playing outside, as did the adults as we were blessed with a sunny day and enjoyed the outdoor music that we had. We had 80+ guests for our wedding breakfast and this was nicely accommodated in the barn with tables and chairs in a horseshoe format. We had a pizza van outside in the evening and again this just worked so well with the set up and the outside space. Although it is a dry hire venue, the venue is suited to any style that you wish to have for your wedding and the freedom to choose your own suppliers added to the positive experience. We wanted a more laid back festival type wedding but it’s such a beautiful place it would be equally suited to more formal wedding styles if you wished.

Truly Beautiful Venue

This truly is a beautiful, special venue. Amy, Ben and their team have done an incredible job transforming the place into a perfect setting for any wedding or event. We had so many lovely compliments from our wedding guests about the venue and how stunning the barn looked. We stayed in the new honeymoon suite on site - this is a perfect addition to the venue for newlyweds. It has great amenities, an en-suite with an easy-to-use shower and comfy bed. We can't praise this place enough and really appreciate all the help from Amy and Ben in the lead up and during our wedding weekend.

We adored everything about the barn

We adored everything about the barn how welcoming you both are, how rustic but beautiful it is! Answered all the questions that we had we all answered, struggling to find anything to beat it at the moment such attention to detail but yet a blank canvas at the same time!

Feedback following a tour of Moat Hall Barns

I love the idea of inside/outside wedding spaces and you have a great variety here! The venue is presented a clean slate with total freedom for us to create whatever day we can think up. You were both so welcoming and friendly, the venue 'feels' how I hoped it would. Ben was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the venue, how others have reimagined the space for their day and local suppliers.

We could not have asked for a better place to get married!

What Amy and Ben have done with this place is truly special and incredible. We could not have asked for a better place to get married. Being able to choose our own suppliers was such a wonderful way to put a personal touch to our day. The quality of the restoration to the site is second to none and they as a couple are so welcoming and open which really supported the wedding planning process to be relaxed and easy going. Anyone considering a DIY hire venue for their special day should 100% go see Moat Hall Barns. You will have the best day you could ask for!
