From the day we first visited Valeyside Barn we knew it would be the perfect location for our wedding. The Barn, Gallery, Courtyard, and surrounding areas are beautiful settings. Emma, Matt, and their team went out of their way to ensure every detail of our day was perfect. Everything was handled with care and precision and nothing was too much trouble. We had so many comments from our guests on what a wonderful venue Valleyside Barn was and some of our family enjoyed staying in their Glamping Tents just up the hill. Valleyside will remain a special place for us and our family.Valleyside Barn's reply:

Valleyside Barn... Emma... Matt... where do we even start?
We honestly cannot recommend Valleyside Barn highly enough! From the very beginning, Emma and Matt, went above and beyond to make our wedding day everything we had dreamed of. We had a church ceremony and then headed to Valleyside Barn for our evening reception.
Every question was answered and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. Emma and Matt were absolutely incredible - so kind, attentive and genuinely invested in making our day as special as possible.
The venue itself was absolutely stunning and this is what all our guests also had to say, as well as complimenting the service and how beautifully everything was done.
Emma and Matt made us feel so well looked after throughout the entire process, and also really looked after my bridal party on the wedding morning.
On the day itself, we knew that we could relax and enjoy every moment, because we knew that we were in the best possible hands.
Valleyside Barn will forever have a place in our hearts, as the memories and moments made / captured here are unforgettable.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for truly making our day such a memorable and magic one, and for going above and beyond. We have made memories that we will treasure for a lifetime.
We couldn't have wished for a more perfect wedding venue or a more wonderful team.
If you are thinking about booking Valleyside Barn to get married or to have your reception here - Do it! You absolutely won't regret it.
Thank you Emma and Matt.

Emily Sent on 19/07/2026We couldn't have asked for a better venue for our wedding.
We looked at a huge number of venues before choosing Valleyside Barn, and it was absolutely the right decision. The venue is stunning in its own right, with beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces that gave us the perfect foundation to create exactly the wedding we had imagined. Even after decorating it ourselves, we knew it only looked as incredible as it did because the venue itself is already so beautiful.
One of the biggest reasons we chose Valleyside Barn was the exclusive use across the whole weekend, and we can't recommend this enough. Having Friday to set everything up with our family and friends, the wedding on Saturday, and Sunday to pack everything away made the whole experience feel relaxed instead of rushed. The on-site glamping was another huge benefit, allowing our closest family and wedding party to stay nearby so everything ran smoothly and there was always someone on hand to help if needed.
The communication throughout the planning process was exceptional. Emma always replied incredibly quickly with detailed, thoughtful answers that made planning so much easier. No question ever felt too small, and it was always clear what would happen, when it would happen, and what we needed to do next. That level of organisation gave us so much confidence throughout the planning process.
On the wedding day itself, Emma's coordination was outstanding. She kept everything running seamlessly behind the scenes, making sure suppliers and guests were exactly where they needed to be at the right time. Because everything was so well organised, we never had to worry about logistics and were simply able to relax and enjoy our wedding, knowing everything was completely under control.
Our guests have all commented on how beautiful the venue was, and we honestly couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate our wedding. Thank you to Emma and the whole Valleyside Barn team for helping make it such a perfect and unforgettable weekend. We would recommend Valleyside Barn without hesitation. -

Beautiful venue with an exceptional team behind it
We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue than Valleyside Barn.
The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, but what really made the experience exceptional was Emma and Matt. From start to finish they went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. On the day itself they were always there when needed, but in the best way, you never felt their presence, yet everything was clearly being taken care of perfectly behind the scenes.
Emma was especially brilliant throughout the planning process. She was incredibly helpful, responsive, and supportive, from coordinating vendors to accommodating our requests and making sure everything came together exactly how we wanted it.
Everything on the day felt seamless and stress free, which is exactly what every couple hopes for. We’re so grateful for all their help in making our wedding so special.
Highly recommend Valleyside Barn to anyone looking for a beautiful venue with an outstanding team behind it.
Valleyside Barn's reply:
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so happy that your wedding day was so special, stress-free and exactly as you wanted it to be. It was a truly lovely wedding to host. Matt and I are extremely grateful for your comments - our aim is to be behind the scenes making sure everything happens seamlessly. Thank you for also recognising the fantastic team that works with us to make it all possible. Wishing you much happiness in your married life together. ♥️💚🩵 -

A Dream Wedding Venue!
We honestly couldn’t have chosen a more perfect wedding venue than Valleyside Barn. From the moment we first saw it, we knew it was exactly what we were looking for, relaxed, rustic charm and with such beautiful picturesque outdoor space. Matt & Emma have created the most stunning venue, and everything being on site made the whole day feel so seamless and stress-free.
Communication with Emma from start to finish was absolutely brilliant. No question was ever too big or too small, and she was always so helpful, friendly and organised throughout the whole process. Having the access for the entire day before the wedding was great and allowed us to spending extra time with family and friends setting up and decorating.
We were lucky enough to get married outside in the courtyard, and the weather was unbelievable for April, it genuinely felt like the middle of summer! The venue looked incredible and all of our guests commented on how beautiful Valleyside Barn was. We also had a few children at the wedding who loved having so much outdoor space to run around and play in.
There were so many gorgeous spots for photos, and the honeymoon suite was lovely too. I stayed there the night before with my bridesmaids, and then my husband and I stayed there on the wedding night, which made everything even more special.
We would 100% recommend Valleyside Barn to anyone wanting a relaxed, rustic-style wedding.
We genuinely couldn’t fault a thing and would relive the whole weekend again in a heartbeat!Valleyside Barn's reply:
Thank you for taking the time to leave such an extensive and complimentary review it really is appreciated. Your Spring wedding was so lovely - you decorated it beautifully and the subtle golf theme was perfect! We're so pleased you found the whole process easy and stress-free - being able to set up the day before and also having use of the honeymoon suite really makes this possible. We can't wait to see the beautiful professional photos taken in the countryside surroundings! It was a pleasure to host your wedding and we wish you much happiness in your married life together. ❤️💚🩵 -

Kelly Sent on 09/05/2026A Wonderful Venue For Our Special Day
We were absolutely thrilled that we chose Valleyside Barn as our wedding venue. It was everything we hoped for and more, we were looking for:
• a place where we could marry outdoors, but with beautiful indoor spaces in case the weather turned
• somewhere we could stay the night before and the night of the wedding (the honeymoon suite is gorgeous, and Emma and Matt made it feel so welcoming for us and our baby girl)
• somewhere some of our guests could stay too (the safari tents of Valleyside Escapes were perfect!)
• enough space for the bridal party and groom’s party to get ready separately (the honeymoon suite was perfect for the girls, and the tents gave the boys their own space too)
• a venue where we didn’t need to travel between the ceremony and reception
• stunning spots for photos (the waterfall pond and iron bridge are just two lovely options
Valleyside delivered all of this effortlessly. As we visited venues, we realised there were things we hadn’t even thought to consider. Would the venue support our vision? Absolutely—they offered helpful recommendations but fully supported our choices. Would there be hidden costs? Not at all—communication was always clear and honest. Would we feel relaxed and looked after on the day? Completely. Emma and Matt were brilliant; everything ran exactly as it should.
We couldn’t be happier with how our day unfolded. We’ll cherish our memories of Valleyside Barn always. Thank you, Emma and Matt, for a wonderful wedding day.
Valleyside Barn's reply:
Thank you for your wonderful review - it is very very appreciated! We're glad we ticked all the boxes on your wish list in terms of ceremony spaces, accommodation on-site for you and your guests and all the different photo opportunities. It was lovely to get to know you on the wedding planning journey and we're so pleased you felt supported prior to and on the wedding day itself - it was a pleasure to host your lovely family and friends. Wishing you much happiness in your married life together. ❤️💚💙 -

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The perfect wedding venue!
We couldn’t have chosen a more perfect place to celebrate our wedding than Valleyside Barn. From the moment we arrived, we knew it was something special — the setting is absolutely stunning, surrounded by beautiful countryside with the most breathtaking views.
It’s the perfect mix of rustic charm and modern comfort, and our guests were blown away by how gorgeous it all was.
The team at Valleyside Barn were amazing from start to finish. They were friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. Every detail was handled with such care and attention — nothing was ever too much trouble. The whole day ran so smoothly thanks to their support and calm guidance.
The barn itself is beautifully designed, with so much natural light and space to make it your own. The outdoor areas were ideal for photos and drinks, and the atmosphere in the evening was just magical.
We’ve had so many compliments from our guests saying how incredible the venue was, and we honestly couldn’t agree more. Valleyside Barn will always hold a very special place in our hearts — we’d recommend it to any couple looking for a truly unforgettable wedding venue. 💍🤍Valleyside Barn's reply:

An amazing June Wedding
We got married at Valley side Barn in early June 2025. We booked the escape tents alongside the venue for the weekend. Emma and Matt were amazing and really really accommodating throughout. We had access to the venue from Friday morning, which gave us more than enough time to set up the decorations, considering we were doing it all ourselves. They were around all day and were available for any questions we had and any support we needed.
On the day itself, the weather was mixed, but Emma and Matt were both cool calm and collected, and we're ready with a solution or any problem the rain could throw at us. We had the ceremony inside and then the drinks reception under a gazebo in the courtyard, which worked just fine.
The main barn is a beautiful and elegant space, with amazing lighting and great acoustics, which suited everything from the speeches, general conversation during the meal, to a full live band through the evening. They are flexible on the table setup so you can make it look however you want. The bar is well stocked with local options and is reasonably priced. The garden out the back of the barn is a lovely place to sit and rest your feet into the evening.
The grounds are incredible, and there are plenty of places for some beautiful photos. Our favourite was the field near the river. This was perfect at sunset and produced our best photos of the night.
The accommodation overall was excellent. The honeymoon sweet is lovely and comfortable, with a big bathroom and decent sized space for the bridal party to get ready. The escape tents are well equipped and a perfect placement for other members of the wedding party to crash out when the party's over.
Emma and Matt are happy to work with any suppliers, and will encourage them to attend the venue beforehand so that they know what to expect on the day. This made the whole thing run incredibly smoothly.
Overall, Emma and Matt were so amazing throughout the weekend. They were calm, supportive and open to any ideas we had, whilst taking the reigns when needed to ensure the whole event went off without a hitch. We couldn't be more grateful to them and the whole team at Valleyside Barn for making out special day as straightforward and magical as possible.

We had the most incredible experience at Valley Side Barn for our wedding. From start to finish, Emma and Matt went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Nothing was ever too much trouble — they were always there to help with every small detail and made the whole process feel stress-free.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning, with so many beautiful spaces that made our day unforgettable. The barn was the perfect setting to celebrate with our family and friends, offering the ideal mix of charm and space for a truly joyful atmosphere. The pond area was breathtaking and gave us the most gorgeous backdrop for our photos — it felt magical. And the gallery, where we held our ceremony, was simply beautiful, creating the most special and intimate setting to say our vows.
We’re so grateful to Emma and Matt for everything they did and couldn’t recommend Valley Side Barn enough !

Thank you so much for making our wedding day absolutely perfect.
The venue was stunning, the staff were incredibly attentive, and everything ran so smoothly from start to finish. We've had so many friends and family tell us how beautiful the day was — and we couldn’t agree more.
Nothing was ever too much trouble, and you made the whole planning process so easy and completely stress-free. From the initial meetings right through to the big day, we felt so supported and looked after.
All the little touches made such a big difference, and the bridal suite was just perfect — the ideal place to get ready and take it all in.
We truly couldn’t have asked for a better day. Thank you for helping us create memories we’ll cherish forever.Valleyside Barn's reply:
