The beautiful Georgian country house setting makes every bespoke wedding a dream come true. With onsite parking and wheelchair access, the grounds are available to hold a stunning marquee or tipi, catering tent, food trucks and even the occasional fairground carousel! Nestled amongst this stunning green space is a large lake that is ideal to take in a moment of peace. This tranquil spot features a picturesque jetti and tables and chairs carved from wood and is the perfect settting for a photo opportunity of you as newlyweds.
Situated a stone’s throw away from Barnston Lodge is a stunning and ancient church, that has been joining man and woman in holy matrimony since the 1100s. It is one of the few churches in England to include a barrel organ, which fills the whole church with beautiful rich music. The quaint church is a two minute walk away down a meandering country lane, making it perfect to host the ceremony before wandering back to Barnston Lodge for your reception.
