Wedding & events venue · Neutral demonstration
A restored threshing barn, and one wedding a weekend.
Eighteenth-century stone and oak above the Hallowdene valley — yours from Friday afternoon to Sunday morning, with nobody else booked in around you.
A few seconds at the barn. Stock footage, standing in for the real place.
The barn
Three linked spaces under one roof, so the day moves from vows to dinner to dancing without anyone getting into a car.
Vows under the oak frame
The threshing floor seats your guests beneath the original A-frame, with the big doors thrown open to the valley behind you. Licensed for civil ceremonies, and dressed however you like it — the arch in the photographs is ours, and you are welcome to it.
One long table, candles down the middle
The granary seats everyone together rather than splitting the room into pockets. Bring your own caterer — the kitchen is fully fitted and there is no list you have to choose from, and no corkage on the bar you stock yourself.
The courtyard, lit up
Festoons go up over the flagstones and the bar moves outside when the weather allows. Music until midnight inside, and the walled garden stays open for anyone who wants a quieter half hour.
How we work
“One wedding a weekend. No shared car park, no second party through the wall, and no packing up at eleven because another couple arrives at noon.”
The Vow Barn approach
What the hire includes

Come and walk round it first
Viewings are by appointment on weekday evenings and Saturday mornings when there is nothing booked. Tell us roughly when you are thinking and we will say honestly what is left — including if the answer is nothing that year.
Tell us your date
Send it over and we will come back with whether it is free, what it would cost, and when you could come and see the place.
