Amazing venue and amazing staff.
Where do I even begin to start.. If you’re looking for a beautiful scenic venue with terrific food and lovely staff, Monkton barn is the venue to pick. From booking the venue to planning, taste testing and having our wedding in 6 months, it was the best day. Me and my bridal party got ready in the bridal room on site (hen house) and it was lovely.
The staff were amazing, especially Ella. We had 65 guests for our wedding on Saturday 23rd May and everyone had smiles on their faces. The weather was on our side, the food and all the staff were incredible. We had our ceremony on the meadow (under the pergola) then canapés and photos outside then our wedding breakfast inside. The food was fantastic (allergies taken into account which wasn’t a problem for them). Desserts were so tasty (churros were our childrens favourite) Sharon and Ella helped me set up the day before, no task was too big or small for them. Wendy the owner is lovely. A hotel to stay only 5 minutes up the road (Hampton by Hilton). Very convenient location just off the motorway. Just amazing from start to finish. Very sad that it’s over.-

The Perfect Wedding Day!
My husband and I couldn’t recommend Monkton Barn enough! From the moment we came to see the venue for the first time to the end of our wedding day, Estelle, Rob and Lauren could not have done more to ensure our day was perfect.
Not only is the venue stunning in every area, we had full freedom to decorate it in exactly the way we wanted.
Despite unpredictable weather throughout the day, the team ensured everything ran smoothly and everyone was happy.
Thank you for giving us the best day of our lives! -

Perfect Venue, Perfect Team, Dream Wedding
Perfection is the first word that comes to mind when writing this review. Not only is the venue beautiful, but the staff are truly amazing. From the day we viewed the venue right through to our actual wedding we felt confident and happy that we would be able to have the wedding of our dreams. And that is exactly what happened. A special mention should go to Rob, Lauren, Estelle and Chef who all played a massive role in that happening. In all honesty I think we could have asked for a herd of unicorns on the Meadow and one of them would have provided it! Nothing was impossible and the team were all so accommodating. ALL our guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever eaten. The planning meetings were informal and fun, yet captured everything we wanted efficiently. It was also nice to meet Peter the owner who was lovely to us (especially as he had 40 Glampers in his back garden for the weekend!). Monkton Barn we really cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us. We will miss our planning meetings and are already thinking we will be back for our 10th Wedding Anniversary celebration!-

The most amazing day!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Monkton Barn. From the very beginning, the team was incredibly accommodating, flexible, and truly committed to helping us create our dream day. Every detail was handled with care, and their willingness to adapt to our ideas made the whole planning process feel effortless.
One of the most unforgettable parts of our day was being able to get married in the woods which was so magical. The setting was serene and beautiful, and it gave our ceremony a truly special, intimate feel that we and our guests loved.
The sharing platter-style food was another highlight. It was high quality, delicious, and wonderfully varied, with something for everyone. We had so many guests comment on how much they enjoyed the food and how it added to the relaxed, joyful atmosphere of the day.
The entire experience - from the stunning location to the exceptional service -was everything we hoped for and more. We’re still hearing from guests about how much they loved the day, and we’re so grateful to the team for helping us bring our vision to life. We would wholeheartedly recommend Monkton Barn to anyone looking for a truly special wedding venue. -

The Wedding of my dreams - despite the rain
I cannot recommend Monkton Barn enough. I had an unusual situation in that I planned the entire wedding from the US and never saw the venue until the week before. Monkton went above and beyond to understand my vision and even facetimed me and walked round the venue so I could get an idea of what it was like. The week leading up to the wedding the forecast was not looking good but they knew I had my heart set on the ceremony in the woodland dell. On the day, despite rain showers in the morning, they did everything to help us have the ceremony in the woods and it couldn't have been more perfect. After the ceremony the heavens opened and it started to pour with rain but Monkton were not remotely phased by it and they pivoted to have our reception in the beautiful barn. We still got to have some incredible photos outside on the meadow (turns out rain makes for beautiful pictures) as well as Fireworks later in the evening. It ended up being the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor and I wouldn't have changed a thing (even the weather). We had so many compliments from our American guests who were so thrilled to see the beautiful English countryside. Thank you Monkton for giving us everything we wanted and more. -
