The venue of our dreams!

The beautiful setting of the granary estates speaks for itself with its natural flint walls, exposed beams, glass walk way, and intimate barn spaces. But the stand out for us was the gorgeous courtyard garden filled with brightly coloured wild flowers and the corn field that surrounds the venue. We were lucky enough to have a warm sunny day and so really made use of all of the outside spaces which were well maintained and looked after to such a high standard. The team was also fantastic, and made sure the day ran seamlessly without ever overly interfering. They guided us and gave us very professional advice when asked but also respected all of our ideas that made our wedding unique to us. Despite it being peak wedding season, we were made to feel very valued and special. The team were easy to communicate with and I really appreciated Joely popping over to the cottages on the wedding morning to reassure us all and to confirm everything was in hand. What stood out was how personable all the staff at the granary were. One reason we chose this venue was because we could bring in our own decorations and entertainment or suppliers without being tied into set packages. There was always flexibility. Overall, we felt everything was very slick and professional whilst maintaining a relaxed, calm and happy atmosphere. A perfect day for us and I would highly recommend this venue! Thank you to all involved.

Our perfect day

Everything was perfect- the organising, the help to plan, the team, the venue, everything on the run up to the day was so very helpful. The day itself was everything we had dreamed of, and the team were amazing. We couldn’t be more grateful for the support and kindness- it made a magical day even more special.

Fantastic wedding experience!

The Granary Estates helped us curate a wonderful wedding, from the second we even looked around. The staff are always friendly and helpful. On the wedding day our wedding coordinator silently worked with our grooms and bridal parties to ensure everything flowed seamlessly - which they whole day did!! I cannot recommend them highly enough for any event.

The perfect venue

We couldn't have been happier with The Granary Estates as our wedding venue. From the first time we visited we knew it was 'the one' and we had so many comments from guests saying it was the best venue they've been to. Even though it rained for part of the day, it didn't matter as the inside was so beautiful with the fairy lights and there was plenty of space for all our guests.
Abbie led the coordination of our wedding and her and team were brilliant throughout the planning process, answering our many questions, advising on suppliers, and making sure everything ran perfectly on the day. Friends and family kept asking if they could help set up beforehand but Abbie and team already had everything in hand so we just had to relax!
We also booked the two cottages on site for the weekend which were lovely - and one of them includes a 'getting ready' lounge with space set up for the bridal party to get their hair and makeup done - ideal!
We had a magical day and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a venue.

Absolutely stunning venue

The Granary Barns is the perfect mix of modern and rustic. The Barn joined by the glass walkway really elevates the venue and helped our wedding day have a lovely indoor-outdoor feel that was welcoming to our guests.

The grounds are excellently maintained and there are so many perfect spots for photo opportunities throughout the day. We had 50 day guests and 80 evening guests and the venue was the perfect size but could have easily held more.

The prop shop with fire pits/ lighting options and other details available were a fab addition and one we loved having access to.

All of the staff at The Granary were so helpful throughout the process from booking to the day of and we will treasure our day forever. We could not have asked for anything better.

Wedding Review

The Granary Estates is a beautiful venue with fantastic staff who are so attentive and supportive. Because of the staff, Beth & Abbie mainly, our day went incredibly smoothly and all of our guests complimented both the venue and the staff.

In the build up to the wedding, Granary were so responsive to emails, our wacky ideas and always had a solution to any problem that we had.

I can't praise the venue or the staff high enough and we are definitely coming back to visit!

Our dream wedding

We were married at The Granary Estates in July 2024 and we cannot thank them enough for putting on our dream wedding. I knew that The Granary Estates was the one for us before we even visited it, but as soon as we arrived for our first visit, we were sold. The girls who work at The Granary Estates seemed to have a reputation amongst all of the suppliers that we spoke to as being incredibly helpful, professional and organised and honestly we cannot agree more. They really do make the whole experience a joy - which is exactly what you need when planning an event like this.
We really did feel like we were able to trust them with everything that we had in mind for the day and we were completely blown away when we arrived and saw our vision in real life.
On the day, we had a slight issue with our registrars not turning up but Megan and her team were so kind and on it, making sure that we were both calm and ensuring everyone was comfortable, even on the hottest day of the year.
It has been less than a week since our wedding and the wedding blues are hitting hard, but we cannot thank the Granary Estates enough for the help they gave us. If you are considering booking The Granary Estates for your event, do it! You will not be disappointed.

Couldn’t have asked for a better team! xx

Beautiful barn with amazing grounds, the Granary Estates is a luxury venue, at an affordable price that we couldn’t recommend more.
Beth and the team were fantastic! They were professional and kept us at ease throughout the planning process, whilst being friendly and genuinely enthusiastic and excited for us.
On the day they took care of everything, we didn’t have to think about any minor details, they had it covered.
If you do book here, ask for Beth!

Wedding at Granary

We got married at The Granary Estates in June 2024 and had the most wonderful day. From our very first planning meeting (when we had no idea about organising a wedding) to greeting us the day before our wedding, the team were absolutely amazing and couldn’t have been more helpful.
Megan was amazing and guided us through everything on our big day and it all ran so smoothly. Everything was set up in the venue for us exactly as expected. We had an amazing day and certainly recommend to anyone wanting a wedding or event in a beautiful barn!

Perfect Wedding

We had the most perfect wedding day, 22.06.2024. The Granary is beautiful and they help you every step of the way. The wedding planners seemed to really care and want the day to be the best.

Highly recommend!

We could not have been happier with the Granary Barns as our wedding reception venue!! As soon as we saw it we felt it was exactly what we had in mind and the deal was sealed by the reassurance that the team were extremely professional, friendly, and on the ball. Any questions we had along the way were answered promptly and we were able to lean on the Granary team for advice if we were ever unsure of anything regarding supplier recommendations, layout for the day etc. - they were always very flexible and we are so grateful for that and their expert input. In the lead-up to the wedding and on the day, Megan was a complete star!! She was always calm and collected and ran the day to our timeline like clockwork in the background, managing any last-minute adaptations to the plan (brought on by gale force winds!) like a pro, meaning we were able to get on with enjoying our day without having to worry about anything else! Our wedding was truly the best day of our lives and this is in no small part due to the stunning location and Granary team. We are so grateful and would highly recommend the Granary Barns to anyone.

The Perfect Venue

We got married at The Granary Estates in late October last year, and it could not have been more perfect. We organised our wedding here in just 4 months, and the whole approach of their team is very personal and relaxed (less conveyor belt energy!). We got married on the Saturday, and had an extra day on the Sunday for a Sunday roast at a very reasonable cost (we got the same caterers for the two days, so it all worked out really well). The venue is beautiful. The team is fantastic - Parris is remarkable. We felt supported the whole way through, and smiles all round. We have such amazing memories of the weekend, and couldn't be happier with our choice.

The Best Wedding Venue Ever

Fantastic venue both inside and out. The barns are truly magical, the grounds are very well kept and the cottages are incredibly well finished. We knew straight away that this was the place for our wedding. The staff know exactly how to organise a big event and helped us all along the way up until the point where they took over and allowed us to really enjoy the day. I cannot recommend The Granary Estates enough. The regular meetings kept us right on track and meant we were never rushing around. All of the above lead to an unforgettable day that would not have been possible with them.

Dream venue

We honestly can't praise the team at Granary enough. The grounds are beautiful and always so well kept! The team helped us out with anything and everything, from our first visit, to our final planning meeting. They were always so responsive, on top of things, professional and friendly.

On the day, Alice made sure we kept to our timings and the day ran smoothly. She kept any issues away from us and dealt with them amazingly. The day went perfectly and was everything we'd ever dreamed of! We can't thank them enough for bringing our wedding vision to life. Our table arrangements were exactly as requested and everything ran like clockwork.

If you're looking for a wedding venue, look no further. Thank you Granary!

Dream wedding day

We visited 5 venues when choosing where to get married Granary was the 2nd one we saw and after that nothing lived up to that! We fell in love more and more every time we visited.
Paris was our on the day help and she was amazing! The team were so accommodating to our needs for the big day and provided us with the space needed for a huge dysfunctional family, lots of kids and an alcohol free groom. We loved all the options available to us from the prop shop and our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was with even just the smallest amount of decoration. We first got married in a church closer to where we live and the team were great at advising on times to make sure we had the smoothest day possible. Alongside the amazing team we were also blessed with some summer sunshine and held our drinks reception outside before wowing out guests with the large flint barn for food. The most perfect day
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
