Reviews for Camlad Barns
Spectacular
Nothing beats the views though. We went off the the corn field that was next door and got some great photos which really embraced the rustic vibe. Our photographer loved all the different textures around the farm that look amazing in our photos. Honestly, I cannot recommend this place enough!!
Words cannot describe how incredible Alex and Jonathan are at Camlad barns!
We then held our main wedding celebration and vow renewal in July. The planning and preparation phases were so easy with Alex on hand to ask anything and let us do anything we had the ideas for...even setting up Tipi's and camping in the field opposite! It really is the most relaxed wedding venue where nothing is too much trouble. The cottage is lovely for both staying the night before and night of, the lawn and the view are spectacular, and main barn itself is done to such a high quality and courtyard and fire pit in the evening was brilliant. We can't wait for another reason to hold a celebration there!

Fantastic venue
Absolutely brilliant!
No words can describe how amazing this venue is. The Views are outstanding and the barns are beautiful.
All I say can is if your thinking about getting married here go for it! We couldn’t imagine a better day.
Wonderful in every way
Wonderful venue, so pretty and such gorgeous views.
The most perfect venue!
Nothing was too much trouble. I always wanted to get married with my horses there and Alex made this dream a reality! Thank you so much for all you have done for us.
Perfect Wedding at a Perfect Venue
Absolutely amazing
I wasn't expecting as much help as we got from Alex and her partner on the day. They are absolute pros and worked in the background to make sure our day run smoothly
Everyone commented on the stunning venue, beautiful flowers in the grounds and the onsite bar was a big hit.
Would absolutely do it all again( with my husband ofc) just so we can return to the venue and relive such a special day in an amazing setting.
Thank you Alex
Love Irene & Richard
Beautiful Barns
Alex and Johnathan were really helpful on the lead up the wedding, answering our many many questions! Camlad barns are stunning and the different areas make it a wonderful space for a wedding.
We hired two big hat tipis from Java tipis to go on the grass area for our wedding breakfast which looked incredible and 'went' with the barn wedding style perfectly! We had 112 sat inside the barns for the ceremony which fit really comfortably and then used the barns for dancing later on. We used the wainhouse as a chill-out area, with a photo booth and for cake cutting/ cheese later on.
The relaxed atmosphere created by Alex and Jonathan at the barns drew us to them straight away as we wanted something quite DIY, rustic and laid-back. The roses and the gardens in the cottage are stunning and made for beautiful photos as well as the beautiful views. We also hired the cottage which has been renovated and provided the perfect base to get ready and for little ones to get early nights.
Camlad barns will always be very special to us and we wouldn't have chosen anywhere else. Thank you, thank you! Heather and Ben xxx
