Grangefields – Cripps & Co is a beautifully restored barn wedding venue located in the Derbyshire countryside, just outside Ashbourne. As you follow the quiet, private road, you'll arrive at a hidden gem with spectacular views and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Here, it’s all about great food, good drinks, and celebrating in a setting designed for unforgettable moments.
Spaces to Celebrate
Exchange vows in the candlelit ceremony room, where rustic oak beams, red brick walls, and soft natural light set the scene. Outdoors, the sheltered courtyard offers a stunning outdoor ceremony space, as well as a large fire pit and barbecue area. For your wedding feast, the Dutch Barn has an open kitchen featuring a BBQ, French rotisserie, and wood-fired pizza oven, where guests can watch their meal being prepared.
Food & Drink
Food is at the heart of what we do. At Grangefields, everything is cooked over open flames for bold, delicious flavour. The huge barbecue, rotisserie and asado grill turn out show-stopping wedding feasts, from whole roast lamb and sirloin of beef to chargrilled seasonal vegetables. Paired with expertly crafted cocktails or a glass of wine from our hand-picked selection, it’s all about bringing people together over seriously good food.
Grange House
Grangefields now has Grange House, an on-site space for getting ready on the morning of your wedding. With plenty of natural light, a dedicated make-up room, a bar and dining area with a log burner, and surround sound, it’s the perfect place to add the final touches before walking down the aisle. (Don’t forget to ask about the butler service!)
Planning & Support
The team at Grangefields is on hand to help make the planning process seamless. They are your in-house wedding planners. They’ll recommend trusted suppliers, from florists to accommodation, and welcome you for a visit to walk you through the spaces in person.
This is a place where weddings feel effortless, where the food is always incredible, and where every detail is taken care of, so you can relax and enjoy the best day of your life.

Beautiful November Wedding
From the moment we came to view the venue, to the wedding day, it was absolutely faultless.
Tim and the staff made us feel so special and the day was so smooth.
All of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been to!
The food was absolutely outstanding, the drinks kept flowing and they really made every effort to make us feel loved and supported.
Thank you so much to everyone at Grangefields, you are all really special.

Amazing Day!
When a venue says don’t worry we will take care of it, you think okay that’s good, but when Grangfields say it, it’s absolutely true! Nothing was too much the day ran so smoothly.
Each and every staff member was amazing! They all looked like they loved working there! Nothing was too much for them! A special shout out to Victoria and Tim, you guys made our day so much more special! Thank you so much for being apart of it!
All of our guests were raving about this venue they couldn’t believe the beauty! And how much space everyone had. The fact that all the rooms are separate was just perfect!
I’m so sad it’s over cause I just want to do it all again! But we will 100% be back to see you again! Thank you Grangefields and all of the team!
Truly Stunning!
When we look back, we can’t see ourselves getting married anywhere else. From start to finish the team at Grangefields have been truly amazing. The venue is breathtaking and you can feel the magic in the air just from walking around during your visit. I’ll admit, this venue was over budget for us but once seeing it in person we fell in love!
Wedding planning was so so easy with the team! Any questions or updates were answered within hours. Their online portal system gave us a direct line of communication so there was no waiting for meetings to have questions answered.
Our wedding day was truly magical. This venue decorates itself and we didn’t have to do much to make our day perfect! We booked all our suppliers through Grangefields wedding fayre. All were familiar with the venue, making our day run so smoothly!
The staff are incredible, all the staff behind the bar were dancing with guests. Nick and Jade, our directors were amazing! They talked us through the day and were checking up on us constantly. My drink was never empty!
Overall, our day couldn’t have been any better. Grangefields helped us create special memories and it is a truly magical place, with the best team.

Perfect magical day
Amazing venue, food and people!
Exceeded all expectations
We have had so many glowing reviews of the day from our guests, so many people said it was the best wedding food they had ever eaten, incredible service from staff and the venue itself (particularly the ceremony room!) blew everyone away.
I can’t thank the Grangefields team enough, particularly Jess, Lucy and Tim, for all their help in the planning process, answering all our questions very promptly along the way and giving us the best day of our lives, we want to do it all again!! Can’t wait to get all our photos and re-live it all.
Thanks so much again, Lotty & Dan xxx
