Of course you’ll want to know about the Stone Barn, bar and terrace area. The all important location for your wedding breakfast and Reception.
With tons of room, the spaces flow well and are comfortable for up to 160 evening guests.
The barn has a bar.
We have a space for outside catering companies to set up everything they’ll need and we’re happy to liaise with them on this.
From weddings past we’d say that the barn comfortably seats 100 guests.
We can accommodate wedding parties of 100+ on the area adjacent to the barn but please be aware this will require marquee hire (we can advise with this bit!).
We’ve also had some parties dine alfresco on the terrace. The choice really is yours.
You’re welcome to bring in any caterers you like, or we can recommend some great people. Lots of couples getting married here take advantage of having the family together and the huge farmhouse kitchen and combine bringing in outside caterers with a bit of self catering, which works really well. It really is very flexible here.
We have an area idea for food vans and outside caterers which tends to be a popular choice for evening receptions.
We have a really well stocked bar here to make things easier for you, but you’re also welcome to bring your own drink. The bar is very reasonably priced for your guests with pretty much anything you can think of, so you don’t have to worry about making sure you have everyone’s favourite tipple.
Most couples decide to go with a mixture of supplying their own wine for dinner, champagne for toasts, beer in buckets about the place and perhaps a couple of kilner jars full of a chilled summer cocktail. We don’t charge corkage and we’re happy to chill, open and pour whatever needs attention. We can supply all your glasses, (there’s no charge) and you won’t have to clear up half drank pints the morning after.
Between Dinner, speeches and your evening guests arriving, lots of people take advantage of the south facing terrace to relax and catch up with family and friends or play lawn games on the large all weather turfed area adjacent to the terrace. You can’t beat a bit of welly tossing in the country!
The stone Barn has lots of room for a band and dancing and the bar offers a quieter area for those who want to chat, sat on comfy sofas. The terrace area which overlooks the lake, has fire pits, sofas and column patio heaters to keep your guests warm as the sun goes down and if you’re looking for a magical feature for your evening that you and your guests will never forget, you can’t beat fireworks by Sonic over lanterns on the lake choreographed to your favourite song.
There are lots of choices, so it’s best if you come for a visit and we chat through your ideas for creating a day that will reflect you as a couple.
