Our Story
2019 was a great year for us here at The Village Barn. Our second full year saw tremendous growth in weddings, parties and corporate events.
Weddings began at Easter with the most magical weekend of sunshine and an equally magical couple and their two great sons. It continued a pace throughout the summer, in good weather and bad - but a drop of rain never dampened the spirits. Positive reviews poured in with garlic potatoes and homemade ice cream being firm favorites, and everyone mentioning our amazing crew - we couldn’t do it without them!
Several nationalities and personalities passed through our doors, each of whom added their own personal twists to their big day. The year finished in style with a local couple and their fab daughter who enjoyed a Christmas wedding basked in bright winter sunshine.

While 2020 was set to be the busiest year yet for us, the Covid-19 hit us and all in the hospitality industry hard. With the vast amount of downtime, we had, we added a new porch and jazzed up the toilets in the barn and gave both the Sanctuary and the Orangery a facelift.
We welcomed just 13 lovely couples and their guests through our doors to celebrate their special day and although the numbers were small, each wedding was thoroughly celebrated and enjoyed by all!

Early 2022 was blighted by COVID 19 but when we got going it was our busiest year to date. We finally got to test the extended bar in the Barn for the larger weddings. In the Orangery, we remodeled the bar & polished the floor. The gardens continued to mature creating many perfect backdrops for photographs & our Volkswagen Split Screen went everywhere it was asked! Another addition in 2022 was in Willie's Bar; our Speciality Whiskey Cabinet - stocking the finest whiskeys to toast any occasion.
We hosted memorable corporate events, including the inaugural Mid Summers Ball in aid of the Lions Club which proved to be a great success. We continued to host at least one wedding if not two every week and Christmas Parties brought 2022 to a close.
May 2024, the sun has finally made its presence. 2024 has started busy for us with weddings, parties & events. We have remodeled 2 luxury bedrooms next door to the Barn and have added a Whiskey Emporium to Willies Bar. Both are 70% complete and will be a welcome addition in the next few months.
