Full Description
Gate Street Barn is built in the traditional style using wood from oak trees lost on the farm in the 1987 hurricane.
Gate Street Barn boasts beautiful landscaped gardens and views of our hobby herd of English Longhorn cattle. There is ample all-weather parking.
In February 2018 Gate Street Barn underwent extensive refurbishment and now features a beautiful Orangery linking the main barn with the bar area in The Pheasantry. The Atrium was also added on the other side of The Barn to accommodate up to 150 sit down guests. Both these new extensions provide increased light and capacity no matter the weather.
Whatever the occasion, Gate Street Barn is the perfect venue. Weddings, Conferences and Seminars, Charity Events, Wakes, Cookery Demonstrations, Corporate Events or Christmas Parties can all be celebrated in a unique, tranquil setting creating magical memories.

Wedding venue of our dreams!
To India & everyone else at Gate Street Barn
Thank you for being the wedding venue of our dreams – we could not have asked for more (we even got blue skies in August!!)
Our pictures are absolutely unreal and a massive part of that is due to your stunning venue. Some of our friends are so angry they can’t get married at GSB now – sorry! Your 10/10 communication and support made our day. Thanks again!

The Most Wonderful Day
To all the team at GSB
We had the most wonderful day at Laura & Darren Gallagher’s wedding on the 14th September, thank you so much. The venue is quite simply stunning and so flexible and obviously the incredible weather made the day even more amazing. We loved our stay in the farmhouse and to be able to swim in the pool early in the morning in mid-September was fabulous.
Our daughter and son in law declared this was without doubt the best day of their lives and we couldn’t be happier for them.
With our best wishes,
Wendy & Irving Johnson

Our Amazing Day!
A huge thank you from both of us for the most amazing day on Saturday.
From our first visit to the barn with Lisa, we fell in love and knew it was the place we wanted to get married. Lisa made us feel comfortable and was super relaxed which is what we were looking for from our day.
From that first meeting until last Saturday you have all been amazing. My stupid questions being answered efficiently and the clear timelines made it really easy and the day worked like clock work. Thanks to Daniel for being our right hand man on the day and for ensuring everything worked perfectly – safe to say I was able to step off from my control freak perch so thank you very much! Nothing was too much bother for you and for that we are extremely grateful.
A dream team, incredible venue and the best day of our lives.
Thank you so much. We will never forget our day at Gate Street Barn.
Lucy and Jack xx

A Grateful Mum & Dad
Dearest Lisa,
We just wanted to write and say a huge ‘thank you’ to you and your very helpful, smiley and friendly staff for making our daughter, Lucy Hollister’s wedding to Jack such a fantastic day. The whole wedding was run seamlessly and with smiles all round from staff all day.
Everything was perfect, including the overnight stay in the house, with lovely towels and beautiful bedding – then the amazing breakfast in the morning, Thank You.
I would also like to mention Daniel. I see from the website that he is a ‘trainee’, well he was absolutely brilliant and certainly instilled in us a calmness when we were very nervous. He helped run the day perfectly.
So, thanks all round from a very grateful mum and dad x
