In a stunning location on the South Wiltshire Downs, The Gathering Barn offers magnificent views and easily accessible, rural isolation. Meanwhile, the ancient brick and flint barns boast high-end, modern facilities while retaining their idyllic rustic charm. The barns are linked around a pretty south facing courtyard, great for relaxing and games. Here, you can delight in wide-reaching views, gardens, fields, parkland and epic industrial barns providing a backdrop for endless photographic opportunities.
Exclusive Thursday morning to Sunday afternoon hire is available. This four-day celebration allows you to enjoy two large barns aiding a seamless transition between ceremony, meal and party. The team here is all about total flexibility so, you're permitted to choose your own suppliers including caterers. The spaces are beautiful as they are but if you want to transform them according to your own vision, you're blessed with two full days to decorate. You can benefit too, especially in the winter, from underfloor heating throughout and a wood burner. There's also disabled accessibility meaning your wedding can be fully inclusive. What's more, the venue generates all its own electricity.
