Testimonials

If we could give 100 stars then we would.
Barleywood was absolutely perfect in every way for our wedding.
Zack was amazing from start to finish and I truly believe our wedding wouldn’t have gone as smoothly if it wasn’t for him and all his hardwork and calming personality.
Connor also was extremely helpful and a joy to have around.
My new husband and I will cherish the memories we now have at Barleywood forever.
Thank you, we hope to return.

I had my wedding at Barley Wood on the weekend of October 18th, and it was absolutely stunning. Zach and his team were a dream to work with, and everything ran smoothly throughout the day.

The venue itself is beautiful; don't be discouraged by the blank canvas it presents. This flexibility allows you to design your day exactly as you envision it. You can tailor the costs to fit your budget and choose a style that is as simple or extravagant as you desire.

Barley Wood truly felt like our own home for the weekend, and we were genuinely sad to leave on Sunday.

If you have viewed the space and think it might be the perfect fit for you, don’t hesitate, just book it! I promise, it’s worth it.

We chose Barley Wood for our wedding in October and it was the most magical, perfect day! Zach the manager could not be more helpful, answering queries, providing info and top tips and helping out during the set up and day of our wedding. The house is beautiful and was the perfect setting. We were lucky enough to get married outside with an amazing view of the countryside and our photos look fantastic, including some beautiful ones taken on the woodland path. Having the venue for the entire weekend really helped ease any stress, being able to set up the day before so we could just enjoy the actual day itself. The flexibility to decorate however we wanted and bring in all of the vendors of our choice makes Barley Wood a stand out in our opinion. We had the most amazing weekend and couldn't recommend it more! Photos by Joab Smith (also amazing!).

We knew as soon as we visited that we wanted to get married at Barley Wood House. You get it for the whole weekend, it has accommodation on site, a beautiful outdoor ceremony location, gardens, terrace, hall and dance floor. The multiple locations in the building make the whole day very smooth, the dance floor in particular was just perfect with our band! You can chose your own catering, we used Coexist (Bristol based community kitchen) who were so perfect and lots of people seemed to like. We particularly love Zach, who works at BWH, who is so kind, knowledgeable and helpful - he made sure our weekend went so smoothly, we just had the best weekend we could imagine.

Beautiful wedding venue with the freedom to dress however you want. Having the weekend to set up get married and then pack down made me feel that they really valued you and wanted to make your day as special as possible. Everything felt really personal and not like we were going to a wedding factory. We had the most beautiful day and the range in the grounds created the most beautiful pictures.

What an amazing venue! We absolutely fell in love with Barley Wood House when we first saw it (and met the brilliant Zach!) and we couldn't have asked for more.

We had perfect weather to fully enjoy all the outside spaces and got married (twice!) in the summer house (officially with the registrars on the Friday and then by our good friend / unofficial celebrant on the Saturday). We wanted a family-friendly space and this worked perfectly. Being able to stay all weekend was the cherry on top - the bedrooms are spectacular and it was lush having our closest people with us for the whole time.

Special thanks to Zach for his unflappable support, excellent advice throughout, quick replies and calm presence on the day, making sure it all went smoothly - legend; Connor for being a quiet trooper for the weekend; brilliant Bev and Steve for supplying the bar, and all our amazing suppliers who made it so special.

It was a perfect weekend. Wish we could do it again!

We had our wedding at Barley Wood, and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is stunning, with breathtaking views that made our day feel so special. Zach and the caretaker went above and beyond to help us – they were incredibly helpful, friendly, and accommodating throughout the whole process. Everything ran so smoothly thanks to their support. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Barley Wood to anyone looking for a beautiful and memorable wedding venue!
