Fabulous
Everything at Barnsdale was exactly what we wished for. We wanted a relaxed small wedding and it was fabulous. Charlotte and her team were brilliant and made everything easy. The food was excellent and the gardens beautiful. All our guest loved it too. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this wonderful, special place.

Amazing wedding day
We had such an incredible wedding day at Barnsdale Gardens. Charlotte the wedding coordinator was so friendly and helpful. She made everything run so smoothly on the day. A beautiful venue and we couldn’t have been happier with how it all went. It was brilliant that we had the flexibility to do things how we wanted them. Barnsdale were very easy to work with. The whole thing felt so relaxed.

We just wanted to take a moment to thank you for all your expertise in planning our wedding day. It went absolutely beautifully down to the little details. It wouldn't have been possible without all your help and support!

The best, most fun garden wedding you could hope for
Barnsdale Gardens is a wonderful place to get married - Charlotte and Nick take care of you beautifully. The gardens are exquisite for plenty of lovely photographs, and the ceremony in the conservatory is more intimate, less formal, very moving but fun, all at the same time! - just how we wanted it. Very highly recommended, I loved our wedding day so much, it was the perfect place for us.
