Last update: July 2025

A bright, airy 17th-century Grade II listed barn nestled in the Cotswolds, The Great Tythe Barn has everything you need for your perfect day! Onsite accommodation can host up to 90 guests, including the spacious Tythe House which sleeps 16 guests and has a gorgeous orangery for getting ready and hosting loved ones. The venue has been recently renovated to provide a perfect blend of modern comforts with that classic cotswold stone look. Here, couples and their guests can enjoy a variety of different spaces, comfortable accommodation, and comprehensive wedding packages to facilitate unforgettable celebrations. Since we are located in Gloucestershire, we have many great surrounding areas like Wiltshire and Bristol, to make your experience even more convient.

Let us take you through what your dream wedding day at The Great Tythe Barn could look like...

After staying onsite in one of our Tythe House or one of our cottages, one of our friendly wedding coordinators will come over and check on you to offer a helping hand and to ease any morning stress. You will then continue your morning getting ready with your wedding party and enjoying your time before the celebrations begin. Once your guests have arrived, we will get everyone seated ready to watch you both say I do! Our venue can hold indoor ceremonies for up to 200 guests, with an outdoor option under our delightful Oak Pavillon which is available in good weather.

Following your wedding ceremony and confetti shot, your drinks reception can take place on our beautiful lawn or in the barns gallery. The fall proof layout of our venue means all weather can be accommodated for. Prior to your day you would have chosen from a wide range of drinks packages on offer which can be adapted and designed to your taste. These will go down a treat alongside your choice of delicious canapés served to you by one of our trusted catering suppliers.

Meanwhile, the ground floor of the barn will be turned around for your wedding breakfast. The adaptability of the barn means we allow for several seating arrangements which will satisfy both you and your guests. Once the room is ready you may opt to do a first look so you and your partner can take in the beauty of what you've deisgned. This is a special moment which allows you to see the wedding brekafast set up before your guests are invited inside.

The catering companies we work with provide outstanding food and service so you are in safe hands whoever you choose. They all offer extensive menus with options to have a three course meal or something a little different like sharing platters or BBQ food.

After the meal is served and speeches have concluded, an option for tea and coffee is available, or guests can make the most of the well-stocked bar.

In the evening, The Great Tythe Barn transforms to a truly spectacular venue for an evening reception with up to 350 guests. Our stage and wooden dance floor provides an excellent space for a band/DJ to set up so your guests can dance the night away. Evening food is also served at this time to keep everyone full of energy.

At the end of the night you and your guests can take advantage of a variety of onsite accommodation, ranging from self-catering cottages & B&B rooms, to our 5 star Tythe House.

The next day we will say our goodbyes and see you off! This is always an emotional moment since we build up such great relationships with our couples, but we are always here for catch ups and anniversary getaways.

From the team at The Great Tythe Barn in Tetbury, we look forward to meeting you and getting to know your plans for your big day!

Relaxed yet refined barn wedding venue

We chose the Great Tythe Barn for our winter wedding and we couldn't have been happier with the venue, accommodation, and staff. Everything was well organised and beautifully managed. We chose the venue for its onsite accommodation for our guests and the traditional but beautifully converted barn venue. The Tythe House is a lovely Georgian property and made the perfect bridal party accommodation. We are particularly grateful to our wedding coordinator Rosie who was a joy to work with in the lead up to the day (no question too much trouble!) and on the day itself. Everyone at GTB does a brilliant job of making this a relaxed yet refined country wedding venue.

The perfect wedding venue

What can I say, well, as the groom the experience from beginning to end was brilliant, professionally delivered and on the day all the staff delivered. Love and thanks to Tracey, Hannah, Rhoda, Meg, Jack and all the staff for helping to deliver a memorable day. Highly recommended if you want a day to remember!

The most perfect venue

From the moment we saw TGB I knew it was the perfect place for our big day. The barn and grounds are stunning, there was plenty of accommodation including the fantastic house, and the staff were absolutely top notch. Everyone we dealt with from start to finish was so helpful and organised. The day went incredibly smoothly and everyone just loved it. It was truly magical, from the garden setting for the ceremony to the gorgeous barn for our party and the amazing photo locations. We absolutely loved having our wedding here and I would highly recommend!

Couldn't have asked for a better venue to get married.

The most perfect venue to get married, we cannot recommend the Great Tythe Barn highly enough. Tracey, Poppy, Jac and the whole team were absolutely amazing from the day we visited for the first time until the day we got married. No question was ever too much and they constantly had a positive "can do" attitude.
The barn and its surrounding gardens are absolutely stunning. We got married outside on the lawn and it was absolutely spectacular. We had 170 guests and it to a person, all of them complimented the venue to us.
This was the perfect wedding venue and every small detail made this the best day of our lives.
Thank you Tracey & Team!

Absolutely amazing venue

This venue ticked so many boxes for us. It had enough accommodation for 90 of our guests in B&B rooms, cottages and the Tythe House, so we were able to make a whole weekend of our celebrations. The venue is beautiful, the caterer (Fosters) provided the best food and the team at the barn are fantastic. I'm from a hospitality background and know how things work and these guys are professionals...you can leave it all in their hands and enjoy your day! I'd love to do it all again! Definitely recommend!

Amazing staff!

The girls were so friendly and welcoming - they really made us feel comfortable from the first day we met them. They gave us the flexibility to let us run our day exactly how we wanted it to run, yet still giving us great advice and guidance along the way

The Perfect Venue

The staff were amazing - always had time to help with any queries and provide
advice/support. Place itself was lovely setting, did not need too much of own decoration due to the splendor of the barn. It was also perfect for accommodation on site, great for all our
guests. It was the right sized venue - not too big or small, walkable distance to Tetbury

We are considering this as a wedding venue

My partner I are currently considering the GTB as a potential venue for our wedding.

Does anyone have any recent experience of it as a wedding venue? I'm concerned by comments on Trip Advisor...
