The Great Barn opens its doors for an Open Day on Sunday 9th March 2025, 11am-4pm
Sitting in the heart of the idyllic Teign Valley where rolling meadows meet pockets of mature trees, The Great Barn offers breathtaking natural beauty and away-from-it-all romance within eight miles of Exeter. Flanked by 120 acres of private grounds complete with flower-filled walled gardens and a medieval courtyard, The Great Barn – affectionately known as the ‘thatched cathedral’ – never fails to captivate couples with its 15th century history, striking architecture and wow-worthy interiors.
The Open Day is the perfect chance to explore this breathtaking venue, meet the friendly team and gather inspiration for your big day. Wander through the picturesque indoor and outdoor spaces, perfect for both ceremonies and receptions, and take in the beauty of the unique setting. Tour the on-site accommodation, which can host up to 30 guests for a full wedding weekend of celebrations, discuss the food and drink offerings and take a peek at sample menus.
You'll also be able to discover some of the beautiful décor included in your venue hire and take a short stroll up the lane to the Grade I listed St John the Baptist Church, a stunning setting for those wishing to hold a traditional ceremony. Meet the friendly and dedicated team who will be on hand to answer your questions and enjoy a complimentary glass of fizz or refreshing elderflower bubbly as you experience the charm and versatility of The Great Barn firsthand.
