About The Barn 1 Lonsdale Gardens, Mount Pleasant Road, Tunbridge WellsKent, TN1 1NU The Barn .... a more personal Wedding Venue The Barn is unique in many ways not least in that it has been rebuilt from a centuries old Elizabethan barn which was originally constructed in a Kent village and re-erected on its present site some years ago.

The staff were pleasant. The event was. Trouble free making it a perfect day.The best day of our lives! Venue Service By Matt and Tracey, on 31 Jan 2020Date of Wedding - 22 Apr 2019 We wanted to get back in touch with you all at The Barn to thank you for what was truly the best day of our lives and although we are now back to everyday life, we still continue to live in our little bubble of wedding day happiness. Sincere gratitude to you and all your staff at The Barn. We talk about the day non stop and look back again and again at our photos. Ourselves, family and friends all said how The Barn was the perfect place for our wedding and it was all I could have hoped for, a personalised, relaxed, happy flowing atmosphere, exceeding all our expectations. Wish you all at The Barn the best for the future, you deserve all the awards and all the recognition for your passion and knowledge that you have to make a couples dream wedding day come true!The best wedding venue in Kent! Venue Service By Joshua and Sonnie, on 31 Jan 2020Date of Wedding - 21 Apr 2019 We just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone at the Barn for making our wedding day so special. Everything went so smoothly throughout the day and the team were very helpful answering and guiding us with any questions we had. The team set up the decorations upstairs so beautifully and were even kind enough to move our candles outside in the evening so our guests could sit around candles in the garden as we were very lucky with the weather that day. Our day was exactly how described by you "intimate and personal" and we would not have changed anything about the day if we could. The food was out of this world, as was the service throughout the day. Luke the DJ was excellent and although the majority of guests were outside enjoying the warm weather there was always people on the dance floor or running in to a song they loved. We will recommend the Barn to any future brides and grooms and we hope to attend weddings there in the future. Our biggest thanks again to you all. You truly are the best wedding venue in Kent!Stunning venue Venue Service By Danielle and Simon, on 31 Jan 2020Date of Wedding - 14 Apr 2019 From the moment we stepped into The Barn we knew this was the venue for our wedding day. Janet and Philippe were so warm and welcoming and spoke so highly of their tight nit team, it had a real sense of family around it. Janet was amazing from start to finish answering my many, many emails no matter how trivial be it day or night. Milo was brilliant throughout the day and really put us at ease when we dropped our decorations off the day before. We knew we were leaving everything in good hands and felt our anxiety turn to excitement for the next day! Thank you all so much for your hard work. All our guests commented on what a studding venue it is and how delicious the food was. We couldn't have asked for a better day and we look forward to seeing you for our complimentary first anniversary meal! (Such a lovely extra touch)An amazing job!

Venue Service By Simon, on 04 Aug 2019Date of Wedding - 17 Feb 2019 Dear Janet, we thanked Philippe and the team on the Day and when we went in on the Monday, but in the rush I don’t think we thanked you.

It was great to be dealing with someone who was so on top of the detail and could help us make the best decisions.

Venue Service By Kat and Andrew, on 17 Dec 2018Date of Wedding - 04 Nov 2018 Firstly we would like to thank Philippe and Janet for all your help every step of the way. They are both very lovely people and took a lot of stress out of the wedding planning. The Barn is the most perfect wedding venue, all the staff are very helpful and friendly. We would recommend them to everyone. Our wedding was everything we dreamed off and more. The venue had been decorated beautifully by Philippe. A number of our guests have said it was the best wedding they have ever been to and how incredible the food was. The day ran smoothly and was very relaxed and calm, we loved it! We can't say thank you enough.Heartfelt thanks Venue Service By Suzy and Eve, on 17 Dec 2018Date of Wedding - 28 Oct 2018 We both really wanted to give you our most heartfelt thanks, for making our special day on Sunday so magical. I don't think we can even begin to put into words just how special it was. We received so so many compliments on the food, the service, the vibe, the people and the location to name but a few. The day was seamless and we felt so looked after. It was everything we had hoped it would be and more. We can't stop talking about it, nor can any of our guests! I said to Phillipe that I will have to send you weekly emails (!!!!!) We will miss your kind and wonderful emails very much. As I mentioned earlier there just doesn't seem to be adequate words to express our gratitude. Sending you both our love and thanks. Prev Page 1 of 10 Next
