We got married at Barley Wood in October and had the most wonderful, magical weekend! The views are truly spectacular, and having the entire house meant we could plan everything the way we wanted it, making it more flexible and personal to us. The house is gorgeous and spacious (the bedrooms are enormous!) and the grounds are truly beautiful - we set up a woodland walk with bunting, outdoor games and had the ceremony in the summer house overlooking the walled garden and Mendip hills. Everything ran perfectly, all our guests had a wonderful time and being able to have our pup there too was really special! Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking to get married in the area - this is an amazing venue run by a great team. Thank you Barley Wood!
We booked Barley Wood (the only venue we ever viewed in person) for the whole weekend so we stayed with close friends the night before and the night of the wedding! This made the build up super special and allowed us to all mingle before the big day. The bedrooms are delightful and the beds are huge! Getting ready in the grand rooms the next morning was also special, hearing the buzz of people setting up downstairs, the large windows giving gorgeous natural light.We had our ceremony outside at the summer house, the views were insane!! The highlight really. Zach and Connor worked tirelessly behind the scenes to set up the chairs and ensure the ceremony ran smoothly. You can put your trust in the barley wood team to go above and beyond for you without any fuss!The highlight for us was having the dining hall seperate to the dance hall. Allowing an elegant seating plan with decorations to be enjoyed through the meal. And then a DJ and dance floor to be the main event of the evening! There is loads of space and every where you look theres gorgeous vintage furniture, a giant fire place, or an amazing view.We really can’t fault Barley Wood for a DIY wedding, elegant yet homely, would recommend!!
I was the Humanist celebrant at a wedding at Barley Wood in July. What an incredible venue. The view from where the ceremony takes place is incredible. It was such a joy to share the couple’s story and get them married in such a beautiful place. The ceremony was run with precision and was a wonderful place to to be.
