The most memorable weddings are those with energy. A rare energy which quickly gathers momentum and grows in confidence, until it becomes an unstoppable celebration of love, laughter and excitement.
We believe in the power of design! No more long and narrow rooms, broken and separate spaces or inaccessible outdoor areas. We are a contemporary barn conversion, “one of a kind” impeccably designed with open plan and connected spaces, home to the most enjoyable celebrations!
Stretton Manor Barn was lovingly built back in 2020 exclusively for weddings. The luxuriously designed open plan spaces and 8m bifold doors lead you to panoramic views of the surrounding Derbyshire countryside. Natural rustic materials including reclaimed stonework, traditional timber cladding and handcrafted oak furniture provide a beautiful contrast to the soft, contemporary, and refined bar and lounge interior.
We offer you the choice of an indoor or outdoor wedding ceremony for up to 100 guests, a capacity of 140 guests for a wedding banquet and up to 160 guests throughout the evening. You can enjoy exclusive use of the barn and all couples have access for photographs within a further 22 acres of private grass meadows and wonderful native hedgerows. Fairy lights, chandeliers, freestanding firepits and outdoor heaters all help to give the barn a beautiful and natural glow.
If like us, you are a family of “Foodies”, you will appreciate those rare occasions when you enjoy a truly exceptional meal. Your wedding breakfast is the greatest celebration of your life together, a special gathering of your closest friends and family, a pinnacle moment and this one has to be extra special. We are proud to have an in-house team of incredibly talented chefs. We passionately source fresh and local produce wherever possible and we always provide generous portions of excellent quality food. Our banquets are simple, delicious and reliably fantastic. Book your viewing online via our website...
We have had so many unique and beautiful weddings at our venue that it would be very hard to pick one wedding. That being said, the best weddings at our barn have always had a fantastic playlist and an amazing energy from guests that are so excited to share in your special day!

Pizza if I’m in the mood for something savoury or cake if I’m wanting something sweet. If you choose to have pizza as your evening reception meal, we are always happy to box a pizza up for you to take home at the end of the night.
Our 8m bifold doors which not only seamlessly link together our indoor and outdoor spaces but they also allow us to have gorgeous panoramic views of the countryside from our bar area. We are currently the only barn in the UK to have bifold doors of this size which makes this feature totally unique to us.
I am most proud of our incredible team that always go above and beyond to make sure that your special day is exactly how you envisioned!
