Sianice Sent on 19/06/202510/10 I would book Southlands again in a heartbeat!
From start to finish the team at Southlands were absolutely amazing. I don't think we can put into words just how truly amazing they are and what a great day we had. The whole Southlands team are like a family and they make you feel so welcome. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them, and the venue itself is absolutely stunning. When you book the venue over the weekend you have access to all the facilities on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday. This makes the whole setting up process run so smoothly. From booking our wedding date back in 2023 right up until our special day we had Amy on hand to assist us with everything. She was so helpful and informative. The day before the wedding while setting up, we had Jack on hand to help us. She was absolutely invaluable during this time and could not do enough to help us. Not to mention keeping an eye on our dog Willow. Phil brings the party every time without fail, along with Liv, who I might add was amazing on the day helping to settle my nerves. The whole team is absolutely spectacular and I really hope to see them again in the future. Myself and the bridal party could not get over how helpful everyone was and how smooth sailing the day was. Notoriously weddings can be sickly stressful however we practically did not have to lift a finger on our special day and everything was seen to buy the Southlands team. As part of booking Southlands as your wedding venue you also receive an invitation to their wine tasting evenings that they run each year. This was such a lovely touch and an added extra to the already amazing venue. It was such a fun evening filled with family friends and the whole team enjoying their delicious wine. We really hope we get to visit your special venue again in the future. Love Sian, Ben & Willow xxx 07.06.2025Southlands Barn's reply:

Kathryn Sent on 27/08/2026Best venue for a beautiful day
We could not have wished for a better day at Southlands Barn. Jackie, Phil, Jamie, Finn and Tom were brilliant all day and all weekend!!
Contact with Amy before the wedding was perfect, answering any questions we had quickly and was always there to help us with decisions.
The venue got high praise from all guests, many saying they hope to attend another one there if they could.
Thankyou to all at Southlands for a brilliant day. -

Carmen Sent on 28/06/2026Barn and team of dreams
We had our day back at the start of April - Easter Saturday, the windiest day of the Easter Weekend; but it was perfect. The Southlands Barn team have been amazing and wonderful from the moment we booked to view, all the way through to collecting our DIY-ed decor the day after the wedding; and I know they will continue to be lovely and amazing whenever we can sneak a chance to pop back!
We could not have asked for more from them; even turning the ceremony location around from outside to inside with 10mins to go before the ceremony because the wind picked up and it started to rain! We will be forever grateful to the team and the barn for being a part of our big day, and making it so special and stress free! They put out some decor later than others for us because it was for the evening rather than day, they set up our garden games after the ceremony, they got me a blanket to walk down to the lake with because it was freezing!, they took us to feed the highland cows, I could go on about how incredible they were/are, but this would become a very long essay of a review. If anyone is not sure about booking, our experience would tell us to persuade you to book. Thank you again to Team Southlands Barn -

An amazing wedding for my daughter
My daughter got married here on the 11th June 2026. Right from the start the staff were incredible. The attention to detail, personal service and the beauty of the venue itself made the day magical. Nothing was too much to ask, they anticipated everything before we asked, they bridal room had everything you could want to get ready for the ceremony. I cannot recommend this venue highly enough. Thank you so much for helping make my daughters wedding the most special it could be. -

Katie Sent on 09/03/2026Beautiful day
Couldn't fault the support we got from southlands, the day before prep in helping us set up the decorations and even printing out photos for us that we forgot to do for our memory table! Really blown away by the support. Wish we could do it all again! -

What an amazing place!
We booked Southlands Barn approximately two years prior to our wedding in September 2025. We didn’t need to view lots of venues, this was the one and only venue we viewed, and it immediately won our hearts. It has the complete wow factor. It is perfect. We didn’t need to look any further.
The whole Southlands team were truly amazing. From the moment we first made contact, Amy, Jacky, Liv, Phil, and the rest of the team were responsive, and attentive to all our needs. They literally couldn’t do enough for us.
They made sure everything ran smoothly on the day, and kept us calm.
The whole team were so warm and friendly, even our guests gave them numerous compliments.
The wine tasting night is not to be missed. What a brilliant night that was!
We have been back to visit since our big day, and were welcomed with open arms.
A heart felt thank you goes out to all the team, you truly made our dream day a reality. We will miss you all!
Love Pete & Trish xx -

Damiano Sent on 08/10/2025What a beautiful spot to get married!
We got married at Southlands Sep25 and had THE BEST experience. The venue itself is absolutely stunning. Southlands team who helped us with the planning is incredibly helpful and accommodating. From the first viewing up until the day after the wedding they have been treating us like part of the family! The planning months have gone really smoothly, and they were incredible on the wedding day - taking care of all the details and working with suppliers based on our requests. We would not have changed a thing! -

Holly Sent on 07/10/2025WE LOVED IT! 💖 The most gorgeous venue & amazing staff
We honestly can’t recommend Southlands Barn enough! We had other venues lined up to view, but as soon as we walked into Southlands (our very first viewing!) we instantly fell in love with the stunning countryside setting, the cows in the fields, the beautiful peacocks wandering around, and most of all, the warmth and energy of the team. We cancelled all our other viewings that same day because we just knew this was the one.
From start to finish, the whole experience was incredible. The team at Southlands are absolute stars, so helpful, organised, and genuinely lovely to work with. The wine tasting night was such a brilliant touch as it gave us a real feel for what a wedding there would be like. Being able to bring four guests along made it such a fun and memorable evening and helped us pick our wedding wines in style.
One of the biggest highlights for us was having the venue from Friday to Sunday. It meant we could take our time with setup, do all our own DIY styling, and save on the cost of decorators or stylists. It also gave us the chance to host tea and cake on the Sunday for a relaxed take-down day with family and friends, which was such a lovely way to round off the weekend.
Southlands are also incredibly flexible when it comes to suppliers, which made a huge difference. We weren’t tied to specific caterers or limited in our choices for photographers, florists, or other suppliers, so we were able to make the day completely personal to us. Every detail reflected us, and that’s something we’ll always be grateful for.
The free shuttle service for guests staying locally is such an amazing extra touch and another example of how thoughtful and guest-focused the team are.
Our day was absolutely perfect from start to finish, and we had so many compliments from guests on how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the team were on the day. We truly can’t thank everyone at Southlands Barn enough for making our wedding weekend so special 💖 -

Geraldine Sent on 04/08/2025Wonderful Wedding Venue!
The most wonderful venue! Can't say enough good things about it. My daughter got married there on 26 June 2025 and it was perfect. The venue has so many different rooms, so guests can choose to dance, talk, relax or simply roast s'mores over the fire. The outdoor space is lovely, lots of green space and even cows to add ambience. But, even better than all this, are the kind and thoughtful people who run the venue. Nothing is too much trouble for them, and they go out of their way to make this special day perfect. Thank you all so much!!
