The best day at the best venue!!!
We can not thank Charlotte and Jason enough for everything they did for us for our wedding day. Anything we needed, they helped with and so much more. What I love so much about this venue is that you know that Charlotte and Jason want you to have the best time. It’s not just ‘a job’ for them, they genuinely want your day to be perfect and they take so much pride in what they do, it is their home after all and I can not thank them enough. The venue is amazing and we had the best day. I wish I could do it all over again. Would also highly recommend Brett for the food who also runs the bar, the best BBQ ever and nothing was too much for him either. Thank you to all that contributed to our wedding day, it was perfect.

The Happiest Day of Our Lives
Bert’s Barrow was the very first venue we saw and I instantly fell in love with the light wall in the main barn! Charlotte and Jason were so helpful from the very beginning, suggesting suppliers and offering help with anything else we needed. What I loved most about Bert’s was the fact that you can make it whatever you want, we had our ceremony outside which was so beautifully decorated and Brett and team at Liquid Catering allowed us to fully customise our menu to reflect us and what we wanted the day to be, laid back and fun. On the day of the wedding Charlotte was on hand to keep me calm and to direct me and the bridesmaids when to walk down the aisle which took away a lot of stress. What I loved so much about Charlotte and Jason was that nothing was too much for them and the feeling that our day mattered as much to them as it did to us! I cannot recommend Berts Barrows highly enough! Thank you so much Charlotte and Jason

Best day of our lives!
Hi Charlotte and Jason, just wanted to say a huge thank you to you both for making our wedding the best day of our lives. The venue looked perfect and you two have both been amazing at helping us pull it all together. We know the random Monday wedding might have caused you a bit more stress than normal but you two are brilliant. Here's a few pics 😊 Tom and Kathryn x

The best day ever!
We had our Wedding Reception here and oh my gosh what a day! it was absolutely amazing. Charlotte and her Husband ran the day perfectly. It was everything we imagined and more. If you're considering getting married, I would definitely recommend here 100%. The place itself and it's surroundings are gorgeous. Nothing was too much trouble for Berts Barrow and you can literally decorate it to your taste. Everyone commented on how different and enjoyable our wedding was.

The most amazing day!
This venue is absolutely amazing! The venue itself is stunning, there are 3 barns and also the option of an outdoor ceremony, we opted for the outdoor ceremony and then used the barns for the meal and reception areas. This gave us plenty of space for guests and allowed us to set each room up prior to the day, so we didn’t have to worry about a changeover. We had access to the full venue the day before to set up and the day after for clean up. This means it’s great to suit any budget, and is amazing value for money compared to other venues in the area which offer far less for a much higher price. Charlotte provided us with many local wedding suppliers and we also had the option to use their in house caterer, Brett, at liquid catering company. This made the planning so much simpler and the food supplied by Brett was lovely, so many guests commented on how nice it was. We opted for the bbq style as it was a summer wedding. Charlotte and her team are so helpful, the day itself was stress free, along with all the planning up to it. If you are considering booking here I would definitely say do it! This venue is everything and more, we couldn’t have asked for a more amazing day.
