    A stunning place for our daughter’s picture perfect wedding in May. The most professional and kind people catered for every possible need and anything more that could have been wanted was provided in a calm and beautiful manner. I could not recommend Southlands Barns highly enough. Just an amazing wedding experience in every way.

    Exceptional!

    Our wedding in October 2024 was perfect, thanks to the staff and Southlands. It may sound cliché, but they genuinely made us feel like part of the family from the moment we went for our first viewing to them helping us pack up the next day.

    They went above and beyond which made our day even more memorable. The venue and surrounds are incredible, and the staff could not do enough for us to make the day run seamlessly.

    We only viewed one venue, and it was Southlands. We're so glad we did, it's the best wedding planning decision we made.

    Thank you to all of you, we cannot recommend Southlands enough!

    The BEST wedding venue you could ever wish for!

    I struggle to put into words just how incredible Southlands Barn and the team are! I always knew I wanted to get married at Southlands and me and my partner fell in love with the venue as soon as we stepped through the door. What makes the venue is the incredible family feel, each one of the team make you feel like your wedding is the only one taking place at southlands. They cannot do enough for you. The venue itself is stunning every facility is in perfect condition as if there hasn’t been a wedding there previous to yours. The venue has stunning picture opportunities and flexibility to make it the day of your dreams, it has a lovely relaxed feel and as it’s already so stunning doesn’t require too much decor. Liv, Jackie, Phil, Harvey, Jamie and Amy are the most genuine, kind and down to earth people. They make you feel so special and go above and beyond to make your wedding day incredible. I wish I could give you 20 stars!! Thank you for making our wedding day incredible. All our love and gratitude Emily and Luke xxx

    The best venue

    We had the most amazing day for our wedding at Southlands Barn. I work in weddings myself so I have seen a lot of venues in action. And I can honestly say Southlands Barn is not only the best venue visually but the staff are incredible. I cannot recommend this place anymore!!!

    Best day ever

    The venue is so beautiful and well equipped. It's so nice to hang out at the venue, which we did the day before when setting up.

    They couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating.

    We hadn't planned every minute of the day, and had rough guidelines, and we were so happy and excited we weren't paying attention to the time. The venue staff just made everything move so smoothly. Everyone had the best day

    August wedding at Southlands Barn

    We got married at Southlands Barn in August 2024. We found them at a wedding fair arranged to go to the Barn and when we got there immediately fell in love with it.
    The setting is perfect, the barns are stunning. The staff could not be any friendlier or more helpful. They put us at ease and helped make the day run as smoothly as possible as well as making it special.

    An absolute dream

    Absolutely adored our experience with Southlands. All of the team are just so friendly and helpful, we wouldn't have changed a thing about any of it!
    Even with quite a bit of rain we had a magical wedding day and reception at Southlands Barn and are so so happy in our venue choice!
    The ability to set up the day before is so helpful (not to mention amazing value!!) and takes away so much of the stress as it's exactly how you want it without running around on your wedding day.
    Since we first visited we knew this was the venue for us, it feels so homely and there was just something different than the other barn venues we'd visited prior to this.
    All our guests complemented the venue, we barely had to decorate as it already had so much charm.
    Oh, and we can't not mention the cows!!!! Hand feeding highland cows on our wedding day was just amazing, core memory made!

    Southlands Barn's reply:

    Hi Nick and Keighley,

    Thank you for choosing us as your wedding venue and thank you for the wonderful review!

    We are thrilled you had the perfect day and Iona and Jura topped it off.

    Wishing you two all the love and happiness in the world!

    Love Amy and the wedding team xx

    We just had a blast from start to finish they made every moment fun and stress free.

    We had a clear idea of how we wanted our day to be, The Southlands team made it happen.
    I can not state enough what a great team and great venue Southlands wedding venue is.
    The connection to St Marys Church was just perfect and travelling between the two was so easy and quick.
    Our guest all found local accommodation, air BnB's all around the village meant everyone was local and could take advantage of the shuttle bus ( what an incredible service that was).
    If you want "your perfect day" please look at Southlands Barn.

    The most amazing day of our lives!

    From the first visit to our big day we couldn’t have asked for more. This venue and staff were perfect. They could not do enough for us. They were very accommodating. We had regular communication with them. They assisted with the most minute details. They were all extremely friendly and professional. They made our guests and our bridal party feel so special. We feel that we have new friends and would highly recommend this magical and beautiful setting for weddings and parties etc.

    Perfect venue & amazing staff

    We got married at Southlands Barn in July and we could not recommend it more! The whole weekend was hands down the best weekend of our lives and that all started with picking Southlands Barn!

    From the moment we chose Southlands as our venue, the whole process was so easy and the team went above and beyond to ensure the wedding was exactly how we wished it to be. The wine tasting event was a real added bonus which made us feel even more excited for the big day and was a wonderful chance to show our friends and family the venue.

    The entire team made everything run like clockwork on the day yet also somehow made it feel casual and completely stress free for us both from start to finish. They thought of little touches and details which hadn't even crossed our mind.

    We particularly loved sharing a boogie with some of the staff on the dance floor at the end of the night! So many guests have commented on how wonderful the venue and staff were and we couldn't agree more.

    The morning after the wedding the staff put on a lovely breakfast for some of our guests which was the perfect way to debrief on the night before and was such a fun addition to the whole weekend.

    To Jackie, Phil, Amy, Jamie, Liv, Harvey, Trevor and Patrick - thank you to you all for making our wedding better than we could ever have hoped for!
