The Old Kent Barn description

Wedding Barn / Wedding Venue / Business Meeting Rooms / Hotel / Conference Centre / Party Venue / Team Building Venue

Medium (1-150)

The Old Kent Barn is set in an idyllic rural location. We have 2 buildings - a purpose built 110ft oak-framed barn (for indoor weddings and receptions) and the original barn (for B&B) built over 225 years ago. The barns are set in manicured landscaped grounds in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).

The paved seating area for outdoor ceremonies has a rose and wisteria covered aisle and beautiful bespoke glass pergolas (installed this year) for an outdoor wedding whatever the weather. Both indoor and outdoor ceremony areas have a sound system so guests can hear the ceremony clearly. Atmospheric up-lights and fairy lights have been placed throughout the grounds, so guests can enjoy their surroundings all evening.

There are many wheelchair accessible paths throughout the grounds and the new barn has ear loop facilities for anyone who has a hearing aid. We also provide a 60-inch HD TV for speeches, plus Microphones, Toastmaster services, planning services, vintage Taxi (to collect the bridal party from the new barn to the old barn) which are all complimentary. There are complimentary dressing rooms for both the bridal party and the groomsmen (a new addition this year).
