2025 LATE AVAILABILITY FOR 2025 WEEKENDS. SPEAK TO THE SALES.
Tucked away in the heart of the Oxfordshire countryside, The Great Barn is a breathtaking 18th-century barn wedding venue full of rustic charm and timeless character. Originally built in 1770 as part of the Cartwright Estate in Aynho, the barn features original Cotswold stone walls, exposed oak beams, and high vaulted ceilings that create a striking yet romantic setting. Bathed in natural daylight by day and glowing with ambient lighting by night, The Great Barn transforms seamlessly from a serene ceremony space to a lively celebration venue. With exclusive use of the entire venue and stunning gardens and grounds, it offers couples a relaxed yet spectacular backdrop for their big day.
Facilities and Capacity
The Great Barn can accommodate up to 120 guests for your ceremony and wedding breakfast, and welcome up to 175 evening guests for a full night of celebration. The venue offers multiple flexible spaces, including the Croughton Barn for dining and dancing, and The Aynho Barn for a private, cosy drinks experience overlooking the festivities below. A tranquil private dressing room is available for getting ready, and outdoor spaces such as the patio and lawn provide the perfect backdrop for mingling, drinks, or sunset photos. The barn is fitted with a fully licensed bar and can be decorated to match your individual style.
Services Offered
The Great Barn team is passionate about helping you bring your wedding vision to life, offering a warm and professional approach from your first visit to the last dance. Enjoy exclusive use, tailored planning support, and chef-prepared menus served from the in-house kitchen. A wide range of extras and hire items are also available to personalise your day. From styled table décor, neon signage, and LED strip lighting, to outdoor garden games, ceremony backdrops, and our popular Selfie Photo Station.

- TTom & Emma13/11/2025An Amazing Day, Made Even More AmazingAn Amazing Day, Made Even More AmazingGrace was Amazing, and everyone at the Great Barn was so friendly and helpful. Grace, who was managing our day, had everything sorted by 1030, which took all the stress off us and ensured any issues were sorted. It was such a special day for us, and for it to take place in such a wonderful setting as well made the day even more magical. We couldn't have done it without the support of Grace and the rest of the venue's amazing team.

- SSteph and Harry23/10/2025The Most Beautiful DayThe Most Beautiful DayWe fell in love with The Great Barn the moment we saw it - we just knew it was where we wanted to get married. Grace, our wedding planner, was wonderful from start to finish, always happy to answer my many questions and ensuring everything ran seamlessly on the day. The food was incredible! We had the sharing boards, and everyone raved about the roast beef — there was plenty of food, and it was all delicious. Our day ran so smoothly, and that’s down to the amazing team at The Great Barn. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue or more attentive staff.

- EElise & Jake21/10/2025The most gorgeous venue and team ever! The most gorgeous venue and team ever!We had the most magical and memorable day at The Great Barn, and we cannot thank Vicky and the entire team enough. From start to finish, Vicky has been so helpful, attentive, and reassuring. Her calm nature was exactly what we needed on the day — she handled everything with such grace and made sure every detail was perfect. No ask was too big, and she truly went above and beyond to make our day special. So many of our guests have asked who “the lovely and helpful lady in green” was! Our day ran seamlessly thanks to Vicky and the hardworking team behind the scenes. The entire process — from booking the venue to planning the day — was incredibly smooth and stress-free. Everything felt so easy, and we always felt well looked after. The food was absolutely delicious and exceeded all expectations. We chose the beef roast, and the meat was cooked to perfection — tender, succulent, and full of flavour. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the roast (and the wood-fired pizza!) was. And of course, the venue itself is simply stunning. Every corner provides the most beautiful backdrop for photos — it’s truly a dream location. Thank you so much to The Great Barn and especially to Vicky for giving us the wedding day of our dreams. We’ll cherish it forever. ❤️We had the most magical and memorable day at The Great Barn, and we cannot thank Vicky and the entire team enough.

- EElla & Tom02/10/2025Everything we hoped it would be and more!Everything we hoped it would be and more!We had our wedding here in September and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The venue itself is beautiful and created such a warm, relaxed atmosphere for the day, but what really made it all run so smoothly was our coordinator, Grace. From the very beginning she was attentive, organised and reassuring – nothing was too much trouble and she thought of details we never would have considered. On the day itself she was calm, efficient and always one step ahead, which meant we could relax and enjoy every moment knowing everything was taken care of. We had so many compliments from our guests about the setting and how seamless the day felt. We’re so grateful to Grace and the team for making our wedding so special – highly recommend.We had our wedding here in September and couldn’t be happier with the experience.

A massive shout out to Alice who without none of the day would have been possible. From start to finish both ourselves and our guests were treated with the upmost respect and smiles/laughs were to be had all day long. The food was exceptional, we opted for the feasting menu which went down a treat with pizzas in the evening, the pizzas were a great touch and guests repeatedly went back for more. They even popped our cake on the bar for our guests to help themselves to. The venue was stunning, Alice and the team did a phenomenal job of decorating the venue - I highly recommend options for some of their hire items. I couldn’t have asked for anymore and will treasure the memories that we have made here for the rest of my life. We got married at TGB on Saturday and we are still over the moon with everything.

Vicky coordinated everything with a seamless confidence, and all of our interactions with the staff at the Great Barn were excellent. There was no doubt that the venue was perfect after our initial viewing. Limoncello shots were a perfect addition to the speeches, and segued us into a wonderful meal. The lamb croquettes were the highlight for me, but it was all wonderful. The venue was beautiful, the food was excellent, and everything ran perfectly.
