Stretton Manor Barn Full Description
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 chef’s. 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.

AMAZING!!!!

Absolutely amazing venue and staff!!!! I would like to say a very big thank you to all of those who made this a very special day, with a special mention to Amanda. The venue is a stunning place in an idyllic location, with the most amazing and helpful staff. The day was perfect, and everything was stunning. Amanda was the perfect wedding planner providing support where needed and going above and beyond to be there for everyone, not just myself and now husband and at the same time not being intrusive. My Grandma is 91 years old and struggles with walking, but she loved the day and was blown away by the venue, as access to everything is easy and it’s very comfortable. The guests enjoyed the day so much and we had so many compliments about the food, which was amazing. Would 1000% recommend this venue to anyone getting married in the future!

May 2024 Wedding

Myself and my husband got married here in May and we had the most amazing and special day. From first viewing the venue they made us feel very special and we absolutely fell in love with the modern feel of the barn venue. The team were amazing and nothing was too much trouble even after bombarding them with loads of questions. We had the best day, everything was organsied to a T and our guests were treated very well (they even managed to source hot chocolates for our elderly guests). The food was amazing and is still talked about now 4 months down the line. We couldn't have asked for a better day. Special thanks to Ellie our wedding coordinator and the rest of the team at Stretton Manor Barn. Mr & Mrs Raine.

The best day of our lives.

From the moment we first viewed Stretton Manor Barn in 2022 we were made to feel special. Mark showed up around and discussed the venue over a glass of prosecco, everything was laid out clearly with no confusing pricing structures we had seen at other venues. In the 2 years from booking to our wedding on the 4th August 2024 the team answered our questions promptly and we went back on a few occasions to go over some plans for the day. Amanda was our wedding coordinator and she is incredible at what she does, she ensured everything went smoothly and that we could focus on enjoying our day. Steve took over in the afternoon during our wedding breakfast and again Steve made sure the afternoon ran perfectly and checked in with my wife and I regularly to ensure we had everything we needed. The food, drinks and atmosphere throughout the day was nothing short of perfect, we didn't have to worry about anything and this allowed us to be in the moment with our guests throughout the whole day. We genuinely had the best day of our lives and felt that the team at Stretton Manor Barn worked extremely hard to look after us and our guests. The only disappointment is that we can't do it all again.

One of the best day of our lives!

We had such a beautiful day. All from the day before setting up, to getting dressed at the on site dressing room, walking down the aisle, the magnificent food & then the party!! There wasn’t a moment in the day we’d change. The staff are so kind & accommodating, they really did make us feel at home. The venue is absolutely stunning & the views are breath taking. Our photos are beautiful with the back drop of the fields behind them. It’s lovely that it’s so private & intimate. No one was left out at any point as we were all together. The choice of food is amazing, & we thoroughly enjoyed it. The packages that are offered are brilliant & very customisable with upgrades if wanted. Thank you Stretton Manor Barn. We love it!x

Our Wedding Day

Our wedding at Stretton manor barn was better than we could have ever hoped for. As soon as we viewed the venue we knew this was where we were getting married. The barn itself is beautifully rustic and really well thought out, it was important to us that everyone be together in one room so that we can enjoy our day together, rather than losing guests in various rooms. The bar was really well stocked and the service was very quick. The little touches really do set this venue, and it’s team, apart. The couple welcome sign and the glass of Prosecco when we first came to view and the canapés evening where we were invited along with other couples with imminent weddings planned to an evening of live music, canapés and Prosecco. As it was a Christmas wedding mince pies were also offered to our guests along with Canapés at no additional cost (best mince pies we’d ever had!) Amanda braving the rain and wind to ensure I had an umbrella (or 4!) over me as I arrived at the venue! We also had a canapés board put together for the bride and groom as we were outside having photos which was very thoughtful and appreciated. The food deserves a paragraph of its own! We upgraded to the banquet trio and it’s the best decision we made! Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the meal and we were receiving messages for days after saying how delicious it was! The quantity was also amazing, no one went hungry! The desserts that weren’t eaten were laid out on our desserts table which was a lovely touch and meant they could be enjoyed by evening guests too. Lastly, if you book your wedding with Stretton manor barn then you are in the best hands. The team, and in particular our wedding coordinator Amanda, were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble and they were so quick at responding to my emails. It can be stressful planning a wedding but Amanda really helped us along. The staff on the day were also very polite, happy and helpful. We realise Stretton Manor is a very popular venue with lots of weddings booked but the team made us feel like our wedding was the only one. We had the best wedding day ever, we just wish we could do it all again tomorrow!

Simply the best wedding venue

We cant thank the whole team enough for making our day so perfect. Everything went to plan, if not better! From our first visit we knew this was where we wanted to get married, we instantly felt welcome and comfortable. The attention and care all the staff put in is incredible, they are so polite and helpful, nothing seems to be too much trouble. The location is perfect, in beautiful surroundings, very quiet and private and makes for brilliant photo opportunities! The food is incredible, we upgraded to the Banquet Trio, and had hog roast for the evening, and well, wow! The amount of food you get on each platter is very generous, but the quality and flavour of everything is insane! Just for food alone everybody should have their wedding here. Simply, Stretton Manor Barn is the perfect wedding venue. Thank you all so much again for making our day so wonderful, we will be forever grateful

Incredible day

Stretton manor barn was the first and only place we viewed for our wedding venue. As soon as we seen it we knew it was the right place for us. Everything about the venue is absolutely stunning. Beth our wedding coordinator could not do enough for us even last minute requests she fulfilled. She was there every step of the way even on the day going above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Our day couldn’t have been any more perfect and that is because of the staff at stretton manor for making that happen. They really couldn’t do enough. Nothing was too much trouble and even our guests complimented how good they were. The food, we had canapés after our ceremony which were out of this world. Every single guest loved them. Especially the pork sausages and mash!! The wedding breakfast itself was again absolutely delicious and the pizza we had at night was so good. Couldn’t have asked for better food. So just a massive thank you to Beth and the team at Stretton manor barn for making our day as special and perfect as it was. Highly recommend this venue to anyone.

A Complete Dream

Wow! Where do I start? I remember finding this amazing venue when we first got engaged. At that point it was still is development.. We only saw concept art but could already tell it was going to be incredible and would have to visit. Fast forward to 2021 we began to plan our wedding. We arranged a visit, and it ended up being the only venue we viewed. Even though there was still a tiny bit more work to be done, and no official weddings as of yet, the place completely took our breath away. We could imagine every little detail for our day, and all our family and friends around us. I remember saying to my partner as soon as we got home that we simply had to reserve our date. From the minute we booked our wedding, even 2 years ahead, the team at Stretton have been nothing short of remarkable. The level of communication and care from Amanda, and everyone was a weight lifted off our shoulders. We couldn’t ask more from anyone. Amanda was our coordinator on the day and she was simply outstanding and couldn’t do enough for the both of us! The day before she was there helping us set up, and on the day of, organising everyone, fluffing my train and helping me walk across the car park a nervous wreck before our ceremony, and just having the most fun with us. We can’t thank her enough for everything she has done to make our day so special. The barn is a lovely mix of contemporary modern and rustic, giving off a really warm atmosphere. I had always dreamed of an autumn, barn style, rustic wedding and here all of my dreams became real. What we love about Stretton Manor Barn is that you are encouraged to style it however you want, and show off your personalities. But in truth it doesn’t need much doing to it at all, it’s just stunning by itself. Table runners with scattered candles and flowers made ours the dream we had visioned for ourselves right from the beginning; we wanted to show off the tables, chairs and beautiful wooden arch that just makes the venue what it is. There are so many extras included with the barn as well that we didn’t realise; the Mr & Mrs sign really added to the vibrancy of the atmosphere. The food is on another planet. Phenomenal. The starter was sublime; light and flavourful with a lovely bruschetta each. Gorgeous humous, olives and a lovely range of breads. We went for the Char-Grilled Chicken for our main and Sticky Toffee Pudding for dessert. Both were out of this world and portion sizes were huge for everyone! We got to try the dessert at the Prosecco & canapés night a couple of months prior and knew we were on to a winner! I only wish I’d of had a bigger appetite on the day as everything was just delicious! We went for the pizzas for the evening option which were again just beautiful! I can’t remember going to a wedding, let alone being my own where the food was THIS GOOD.. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about it, even days later! From the variety of options available to the portion sizes, there is something for everyone and not to be missed! The day itself was just perfect. Everything just went exactly how we dreamed with little to no stress at all. The weather was gorgeous too which was an added bonus! From the getting ready, photos, food and dancing, everything felt so seamless. We would like to thank everyone involved for helping to make our day so magical, from the coordinators and chefs, to the bartenders, waiting staff and our DJ on the night, you are all absolutely wonderful and really make the barn somewhere truly special.
