Barn Wedding Venue in Hay-on-Wye, Herefordshire
Our Farm and Barn Wedding Venue is as Unique as You
We host Epic Festival Style Weddings on our Stunning 16th Century Organic Farm and Barns, near Hay-on-Wye, In Herefordshire
Gather your friends & family and celebrate your wedding in the countryside. Get back to nature and sleep under the stars at our family-run, organic farm in Hay on Wye. Enjoy home grown wild feasts, cooked fresh on open fires. Roam freely on 40 acres of farm, fields and forest, yours exclusively for your wedding celebration here with us.
The Farm would not look out of place in the South of France with all its glorious stone buildings! And with both Indoor and Outdoor spaces you don’t have to worry if the Great British Weather decides to rain on your day.
The Vibe
“Cool Weddings in the Sticks!”
Would suit couples looking for a boho or festival style wedding, or couples who love nature, animals and those wild at heart lovers who are looking for something different. Dogs are most welcome to be part of the wedding party too. Here the gathering is as important as the nuptials. There are no round tables, with white linen table cloths, doilies, chair covers and lists of do’s and don’ts! Rather a sense of play, informality, style and creativity, a place buzzing with energy and ideas with a far richer experience for your wedding and your guests
