    Our wedding!

    Thank you Jeremy and Rachel for all of your help to make our day perfect! Perfect venue, always there to help out and you would be silly not to get married at The Sancroft Barns!

    The perfect venue does exist!

    Whilst the venue itself is beautiful, set in the scenic Suffolk countryside, and the areas offered for your event are spacious, well looked after and stunning to look at, the crowning jewels of the Sancroft Barns are the owners Jeremy and Rachel. At every turn we were met with the kindest, most helpful people who didn’t just help us ensure the day ran smoothly and we had all we needed, the elevated it beyond what we had planned ourselves. It is fair to say that they bent over backwards to accommodate us and what we were looking for on our big day and they even threw themselves into a new style of wedding that they had not done before with excitement, enthusiasm and creativity. I can honestly say that I have no comments other than positive ones for all the team at Sancroft Barns, and I couldn’t recommend them higher. 10/10.

    From the moment we first visited The Sancroft Barns Jeremy made us feel at home. Of the venues we visited, this was the only one who felt interested in us. Nothing was too much trouble for Jeremy, he was quick with his responses to emails and got stuck in and helped us on set up day. Celebrating in he beautiful grounds and Suffolk countryside in the sunshine (an added bonus!) was something we will never forget. We won’t hesitate to recommended Jeremy and the Sancroft Barns, thank you so much for helping our day go so smoothly and making us feel so welcome!

    The Sancroft Barns's reply:

    Wow we really loved hosting your wedding here in August - it was epic. With your amazingly decorated trestle wedding breakfast set up in the barn (ribbons galore!), colourful signs, arrival in the beautiful car and an all-round fabulous day it really made the venue zing!
    Thank you for this and the other great reviews and votes - they all really mean a lot to us. Can't wait to see all the photos, and thanks for choosing us for your great Big Day.

    2nd August 2025

    Sancroft Barns was the perfect venue. The charming barn is a canvas to personalise, with Array offering beautiful decor. The marquee was spacious and well suited to a fantastic wedding breakfast, supplied by Jamie Lee Smith. Surrounded by fields, and with ample space for glamping on site, the location of The Sancroft Barns is excellent. Jeremy is a fantastic host; thoughtful, meticulous, patient and flexible. Most of all, his easy going nature helped to perfect the atmosphere in planning and on the day. Thank you!

    The Sancroft Barns's reply:

    Thank you so much for this, and other reviews. We do try as a team to go the extra mile to make it all the day you expected. And the suppliers you choose all help it along; certainly they were great for your day! Very glad you managed to get the photographs as well, and we can't wait to see them and hopefully use them for our onward marketing. Our heritage buildings, garden and farmland all make it an unforgettable experience, which we hope many more couples will come to appreciate during their weddings or celebrations.
    All the very best and thanks again.

    The perfect venue for the perfect day

    We had our wedding at The Sancroft Barns and genuinely couldn’t have wished for a better venue. From the moment we first visited, Jeremy and Rachael were incredibly welcoming and supportive – and that continued right through to the big day itself.

    The fact we were able to have the entire day there, from start to finish, made it so special. Nothing was too much trouble – they were open to all our ideas and made sure the space felt truly personal to us. It never felt like a standard venue package; it felt like our wedding.

    Jeremy, Rachael and their amazing team were more like extra guests than venue staff – calm, friendly, always there when needed but never in the way. Everything ran so smoothly thanks to their care and attention.

    We honestly can’t thank them enough for helping to make the day so memorable. If you're looking for a relaxed, beautiful venue run by brilliant people, we couldn't recommend The Sancroft Barns more highly

    The Sancroft Barns's reply:

    We always strive to deliver exactly what you want on your day and thank you for your lovely review. You're right we don't do cookie cutter weddings here, and our flexibility is key in ensuring you get the day you want. We and the staff keep discrete but make sure nothing is overlooked.
    We had such a lovely day hosting your wedding here and wish you both all the very best.

    What a special place!

    What a special place! We got married at The Sancroft Barns last weekend and can't say enough good things about it.

    We had been getting frustrated when looking at other venues, which badged themselves as 'yours to do what you want with' - until you started actually asking "could we do x?" Most venues felt soulless, commercial and 'cookie cutter'.

    Then we came across Sancroft. It was clear throughout that Jeremy and Rachael are doing this because they love it. They enjoy helping people have the best day of their lives. They say "yes, and..." when you have a fun idea, and nothing was too much trouble. They are truly lovely people, as well as being super organised, responsive, calm, and all the other things that you need to make a wedding run smoothly. The other venue staff on the day were also fantastic - you'd hardly know they were there if it weren't for the fact that everything that was supposed to be sorted was seamlessly sorted in the background.

    The barn itself is absolutely stunning. The rafters, the original wattle and daub, and the tally marks from counting grain long ago, are both beautiful and fascinating. There are so many gorgeous photo spots in the grounds, from wheat fields to wildflower meadows.

    Having guests to stay on site was fantastic for us. It made it feel like a full weekend, and meant people really committed to the party as they only had to stumble back to their tents!

    We were constantly getting comments from guests about how lovely the venue was and "how did you manage to find such a gem?"

    We are so, so lucky to have got married at Sancroft and would 100% recommend it.

    Wow what a lovely review thank you so much! We have got a beautiful asset here at the Sancroft Barns and we do love sharing it with people, especially those like you who appreciate it so much. The mix of our gorgeous heritage buildings and the surrounding paddocks and farmland do make us quite a unique gem, one which we are keen not to keep hidden. Thank you again for the glowing recommendation and wishing you all the best.

    The best venue ever

    Firstly thank you to Jeremy and Rachel for making our dreams come true for the most special and amazing day of our lives, which we will never forget. We planned everything to the minute and it worked out perfectly, having a blank canvas and being able to have everything there that we wanted. Nothing was too much hassle and Rachel and Jeremy were always so accommodating. We had such an amazing day and we can’t thank these two enough for sharing it with us. 100% recommend the beautiful grounds of Sancroft Barns for your special day and also the wonderful owners.
    Lots of love
    Mr & Mrs Seaman

    The Sancroft Barns's reply:

    Thank you so much for your review. It really means a lot to us and shows we are doing it right. Our aim is always to make YOUR day special to you rather than just convenient for us, and our flexibility and attention to detail are key. We loved having you and your family and friends here at the Sancroft Barns and wish you all the very best.

    Truly the most wonderful venue!

    We truly cannot recommend The Sancroft Barns highly enough. Rachel and Jeremy went above and beyond to make our special day unforgettable. They are the most kind-hearted, thoughtful people, and the venue is a true reflection of their care and passion.

    The setting is absolutely stunning and incredibly versatile. Having both the barn and the marquee was perfect, it gave our guests the choice in the evening to either enjoy the band or relax and chat in a quieter space. The gardens were beautifully kept and added so much charm to the day. Everything came together seamlessly, and we feel so lucky to have celebrated our wedding at such a magical place.

    Thank you Jeremy and Rachel for all your help and support!

    The Sancroft Barns's reply:

    What a lovely review you've given; your words mean such a lot to us, and our various staff who also love coming back to work here. Our versatility and flexibility is key to our venue's success - we can pretty much accommodate anything here, and we love bringing couples' thougthts together on their Big Day! You had such a gorgeous and stylish wedding here which we absolutely loved hosting from start to finish. From your stunning colour scheme to the lovely decorating touches, the barrels of beer on tap for your guests, the loaded fries and flowers (which survived for long after on our kitchen table). We absolutely loved being part of it all.

    We recently had the pleasure of marrying at the Sancroft Barns. The venue was absolutely stunning, especially in Autumn! We were able to make use of the barn, marquee, grounds, and private garden (for photographs). All of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was. Jeremy and Rachael absolutely went above and beyond, both during the planning stages and on the actual day. Their professionalism, friendliness and flexibility was truly a blessing! Both of our immediate families, who were also involved in the planning, were absolutely in agreement that the venue staff went above and beyond. The staff supporting on the day, including Jeremy and Rachael, were fantastic. They were accommodating, helpful, polite, and made us feel entirely at ease and enabled us to relax rather than stressing about details! We feel very lucky to say that nothing went wrong on the day, which we absolutely owe to the wonderful venue staff. We opted for the whole venue option and had a registrar marry us in the barn. The barn was just the perfect place for the ceremony, our dream countryside wedding! We had drinks in the courtyard, a wedding breakfast (Afternoon tea style) in the marquee, before dancing back in the barn with pizza in the courtyard. The venue itself and the staff, especially Jeremy and Rachael, truly made our day special. Thank you so much, we cannot express how grateful we are to have found our perfect venue, and had the pleasure of getting to know you both. We will treasure the experience for a lifetime! Beth and Nick

    We so enjoyed hosting your wedding here - the last of our 2024 'summer' season. But boy was it a hot one for the first week of October, better than most of the others across the whole summer! We saw a lot of sun and had a lot of fun. You'd really tied down the details of everything which always makes it easier to make sure it all works as planned. From the various cake makers, to the stretch limo (our first one here!), the delicious food and very fine wine from la France, and the great band too - oh yes you played in it - again a first! A really fabulous day, we loved having you and your family and friends here, despite all coming an awfully long way -your best man put it slightly differently, words that we treasure nonetheless! All the very best to you both.
