    Amazing venue

    Honestly couldn't have wanted it more perfect, from the email right at the beginning to various meetings both Lauren and Georgia were amazing! They really cared about our day and how we wanted it and you could really feel the love they have for creating magic! We also stayed in the Shepherds Hut the night of and we had breakfast delivered in the morning by Georgia and she went above and beyond to ensure our dietary requirements were met pairing with a equally beautiful homemade granola - it was perfect. She also ensured we were all settled the night of the wedding in our accommodation which was perfect. The food was amazing and everyone to this day raves about it being the best day - there was ample amount with guidance from Georgia with numbers etc. They really made our vision come to life and I could not be more thankful.

    A truly stunning venue

    Waterside was the most beautiful, peaceful location to have our wedding. We fell in love with it as soon as we visited and were shown round by our lovely coordinator Lauren.

    Waterside was really great in the flexibility we had to tailor the day in line with our vision and Lauren helped make sure our day could be full of personal touches that mattered to us a couple. Other venues we visited gave the impression that as a couple you’d be simply numbers on a conveyor belt, but we never had that feeling with Waterside.

    Lauren was also really helpful on the wedding day itself, working tirelessly to ensure everything ran smoothly, checking in with us throughout the day to make sure we had everything we needed, and liaising with all our various suppliers. She and the team were also brilliant in clearing up afterwards, meaning packing away in the morning all the decor we’d brought along was very easy.

    Thank you to Lauren and all the staff at Waterside for a truly beautiful day.

    Mr & Mrs Taylor. 30th April 2026

    If you are getting married anywhere else in Somerset, you're doing it wrong!

    Our wonderful wedding could not and would not have happened in the smooth, happy, and loving way it did without Waterside Country Barn. Lauren and her team made the whole process so easy. They were consistently professional, flexible, and creative when it came to every aspect of the day. We consider ourselves a laid back couple and this venue catered to that so well. We were able to craft the day exactly how we wanted, Lauren took in all our requests and made them work, even on the day itself.

    I could talk for hours about how Waterside made this day for us. So, if you are a couple looking to create your perfect wedding day then look no further. From bringing me and my wife a much needed welcome drink after the ceremony, to helping us pack up everything the next morning. The Waterside Country Barn team absolutely smashed it!

    Thank you forever!

    Tom and Chloe Taylor

    More than a wedding venue!

    Waterside gave us a beautiful canvas to do whatever we wanted, so the space truly became ours for the big day. We organised everything in 8 months which could have been overwhelming but there was so much support from Lauren and very good communication throughout. On the day Lauren, Georgia and the staff were excellent and made everything flow perfectly. All the guests felt relaxed and welcome instantly and the children (and our dog) had a fantastic time exploring. The added bonus of the accommodation meant we could extend our time over a few days with friends and family.

    Thank you for your lovely review Vicky. It was such a lovely day, your ideas and details came together perfectly, I am so happy it was the day you hoped for :-)

    You can see why this venue is award winning!

    We had the most perfect wedding day at waterside country barn. From the start of the process to our actual day, the team were amazing. Brilliant communication all of the way through. We felt fully guided and supported through it all whilst being able to achieve our dream day. In the week leading up to the wedding and on the day, Lauren took all of the coordination off our hands to make it stress free and to ensure we could fully enjoy the day/ experience. On the day the whole team were extremely attentive and everything seemingly ran smoothly. Their recommended catering was delicious. We couldn’t recommend Waterside Country Barn enough.

    It was such a pleasure to have you here and we are so pleased it was the day you hoped for! Your guests were all lovely and it was a fantastic day to be a part of. Wishing you all the best for your future as Mr & Mrs!

    The best wedding venue!

    We fell in love with Waterside County Barn from the minute we walked in. Georgia, Lauren and the team were all incredible, through the planning process and into the day. Nothing was too much trouble, they were so welcoming and accommodating to any requests we made.
    On the day, the weather was unpredictable and they were brilliant in last minute changes and requests.
    We couldn't have asked for a better venue - the accommodation was brilliant, food - everything! And all our guests loved it too!
    The venue is very reasonably priced, especially compared to other similar venues in the area - extremely good value for money.

    Thank you for this lovely review Claire! We enjoyed your day with us so much and we are so happy it was the day you hoped for! xx

    Fantastic day

    Georgia and the rest of the team were fantastic in helping us plan our wedding. They were incredibly organised and well on top of everything, Georgia oversaw our entire day to make sure everything went ahead as planned and all our guests aswell as ourselves had an incredible time

    July 2025 WCB

    Had our wedding here and it was the most amazing weekend of our lives. The venue and staff are wonderful and faultless. In the many months leading up to it we held various meetings for our special day to make sure everything was how we wanted it, the coordination of everything was so easy. The venue has brilliant packages that are definitely fulsome as you find at some venues when you are searching that many have ‘too many options’ that can be irritating such as not including linen for tables! The venue has 4 stunning & quaint huts for some of your closest to stay in with you over the weekend and the area is lush for views and calmness. When our big day happened it was a blur in any case but didn’t feel like a burden in any way as everything was handled so we could enjoy ourselves. At the end of the day, every wedding is diff based on personal preference, but the girls who run it and the venue itself made us feel special and the day couldn’t have been better.

    Thank you for this lovely review! We enjoyed your day with us so much and we are so happy it was the day you hoped for, wishing you all the best!
