Beautiful venue
I can’t fault the barn yard. The staff was fantastic on my wedding day. The actually venue itself is beautiful. The food was a massive hit with my family. My husband who is very fussy agreed with the choice of venue.

Best day, best team, best venue... BEST BEST BEST!
Got married 13.10.2023. The BarnYard were fantastic from start to finish! We got caught in a few failing businesses falling out of the pandemic and turned to them when we clutching at straws. Naturally we allowed them to show us around, which led to us falling in love with this beautiful, rustic venue. They completely understood our concerns after being pulled left right and center from other bad suppliers and venues and communication was fantastic right from the off and all the way through! The service on the day was absolutely impeccable! The staff truly went above and beyond to help us achieve our dream, from extensive planning and making very helpful suggestions to aid us during planning, helping me surprise my groom to be...all the way to helping us locate lost items on time, personally co ordinate between music over PA systems and our live pianist during the ceremony.... and even helping me walk in my dress 🤣 I truly wish we could do the whole thing again and would definitely recommend this venue and this team to anyone, any day of the week! It's a shame a review is the only way we can truly show our appreciation for this team❤️

We couldn’t have wished for better
We are so pleased we chose The BarnYard for our wedding. Not only is the venue absolutely stunning, the details and the fabulous staff made it extra special. We used the Arboretum for our wedding, and we’re lucky with the weather. It was early Autumn, and the orchard backdrop was picturesque. We met with Kirstie a few months before the big day and she was so lovely and made us feel that everything would be taken care of on the day so we didn’t have to worry. On the day we had a slight hiccup where one of our evening guests arrived early, and Kirstie had not only realised this before we knew, but also sorted it so we didn’t even have to panic! It made the day so much more enjoyable not having to worry about everything. (Thank you so much Kirstie!). The other staff were all so incredible on the day, assisting my Mother in law setting up the decorations, and the food was wonderful (especially the sticky toffee pudding I’d recommend!). We used the dressing room for the bridal party to get ready, which was the perfect space and a relaxed start to the day. The Leave in Luxury service was also a great bonus making it easy for us to get to our accommodation. The day really couldn’t have been better, and so many of our guests commented on how gorgeous the venue was.

Better than perfect
We booked the Barnyard 18 months before we got married. Our wedding was better than perfect. Grace and Kirstie looked after us. The bridal suite was a perfect touch to get ready on the day. We never had to worry about anything. It was always in hand. The venue does alot for itself so having a minimalist wedding meant that it was modern and we didn't have to worry about too much decor. The food was excellent, bar prices very reasonable and staff incredibly helpful. We had the best day of our lives and the best part was our guests asked if we could do it again next year. The Barnyard did an outstanding job but it doesn't stop there. Every anniversary we can go for a lovely meal or afternoon tea, something you wouldnt be able to do at many other venues. If you want a modern, stress free wedding then the Barnyard is the venue to choose.

A Dream Wedding
Such an amazing place! We had a twilight wedding… it was purely magical! The staff were amazing, they made sure we were treated like royals (even making sure we ate, which is one thing you tend to forget) So many of our guests commented on how lovely the venue was! We were so glad we picked a twilight wedding at The Barnyard and there was nothing we would have changed
