Couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding venue!

We had looked into other barn venues in Norfolk, but we chose The Red Barn the moment we set eyes on it! It's absolutely beautiful and was not only the perfect size, it also offered a lot of flexibility in terms of decor and caterers etc, and was better value than other venues we'd looked at. The lawn outside the front was also ideal for the children's games we had planned. The owner Richard and his family were so helpful with our wedding planning (we styled the venue ourselves but it meant lots of questions from me!) and offered lots of help and advice - nothing was ever too much trouble for them. I would choose The Red Barn again, and would recommend them to other couples in a heartbeat.

The Perfect Venue

We would thoroughly recommend The Red Barn for a wedding venue. It is a family run business and they really care about the couple getting married. Extremely easy to communicate with them, they are on hand to answer any questions you may have and can go to the venue as much as you require! As they only do Saturday weddings, you are able to get into the venue during the week to set up if required. It is such a beautiful setting too. Our favourite thing was that you could have as much or as little as you wanted for your day. You’re not tied to using a specific caterer or bar, so it can be as formal or relaxed as you like.
Pricing is reasonable compared to many other venues and because of you aren’t tied to specific vendors, the pricing can be left to you for how much you want to spend.
I just wish we could have our day all over again, and cannot thank The Rockcliffe’s enough for their support during the madness of a wedding day!

Volunteer Event

Tapping House held the annual Volunteer Thank You Event at The Red Barn. All staff were very helpful, especially Richard. Nothing was too much trouble and he was present throughout the event to support with anything we needed. We had a wonderful evening in a stunning venue.

Phenomenal work

We booked Red barn the moment we walked in, Richard and his wife were responsive on emails quickly, they kept in touch and ensured they had all details from us.
The most helpful people along with Loubear events who ensured everything went right from start to finish.
On our wedding day they got everything went needed ready and went above and beyond to help ensure everything went smoothly. Even helping clear up.
It was perfect, clean, tidy, attentive. Everything went could ask for.
The next morning we went to clean the barn and they were already there helping. (We were happy to do the lot).
Communication was excellent and we had the best wedding day we could have asked for thanks to these.
They ensured our son who is SEN had what he needed and was happy for our dog to be with him.
We stayed at field Barn b ‘n’ b the night of our wedding which was a bonus and that was super added bonus!!
Thank you all so much for your help on our journey, if we could do it all again, we’d ensure we came to you xx

Birthday Celebration

The Red Barn gave us the most perfect space for our daughters "Hoe Down" themed party, so flexible and fully equipped for out caterers. The barn offered us such flexibility for all of our suppliers and made it such an easy and efficient way of hosting such large numbers.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
