The Methuen Barn is a brand-new wedding reception venue in the heart of Corsham, Wiltshire. Set behind The Methuen Arms, this never-before-seen space brings together the charm of a historic coaching inn with the excitement of a beautifully designed new barn venue. Located on Corsham’s characterful High Street, surrounded by honey-coloured Bath stone, historic architecture and the edge of the Cotswolds, it offers couples a warm, distinctive setting with a real sense of place.

Created for intimate and personal celebrations, The Methuen Barn is ideal for exclusive wedding receptions of around 50 to 70 guests. The space has been designed with relaxed, atmospheric celebrations in mind, combining rustic barn styling with elevated finishing touches. Think exposed stone, warm timber, soft lighting, antique brass details, chandeliers, feature planting and a private bar, all creating a setting that feels romantic, welcoming and easy to make your own.

Facilities and Capacity

The Methuen Barn is perfect for couples looking for a stylish reception space with character, without the scale or formality of a traditional large wedding venue. The barn offers flexible dining and celebration space for 50 to 70 guests, making it well suited to reception-only weddings, intimate wedding breakfasts, relaxed evening celebrations and elegant private parties.

The layout has been carefully planned to support the full flow of the day, with a dedicated bar, prep kitchen, guest facilities and external space for arrival drinks, photographs or a quieter moment away from the party. The setting works beautifully for long-table dining, seasonal styling, acoustic music, candlelit tables and warm, sociable celebrations.

Couples and guests can also enjoy the wider setting of The Methuen Arms, a boutique inn with beautifully appointed bedrooms, making it easy to turn the celebration into a full Wiltshire stay. With Corsham, Bath, the Cotswolds and nearby countryside all within easy reach, it is a lovely base for guests travelling in for the occasion.

Services Offered

Menus, drinks packages, accommodation options and optional extras can be tailored around the style of your day. Couples will also have access to the experienced team at The Methuen Arms, who bring the warmth, food and hospitality of a much-loved Wiltshire inn to this exciting new wedding space.

For couples looking for somewhere new, atmospheric and full of character, The Methuen Barn offers the chance to celebrate in a setting that feels rooted in history, but created for modern weddings.
