Amidst 160 acres of organic farmland in East Devon lies an exclusive use wedding venue as bespoke as it is beautiful. Comprising a cluster of charming, traditional buildings and a walled garden, all of which have been lovingly restored and renovated, Upton Barn and Walled Garden offers a private, picturesque and peaceful setting to wed in a dreamy corner of Devon's rolling hills.

The Cider Barn is at the heart of the venue. Licensed for ceremonies for up to 156 guests, the traditional cob barn has been restored with flying oak trusses criss-crossing the lofty ceiling and locally crafted chandeliers to create a beautifully atmospheric setting. The floor-to-ceiling windows bathe the space in natural light, while ushering in views across the picture-perfect grounds. There's also a raised area, which makes a perfect stage for a band or DJ, a polished dance floor and a state-of -the-art lighting system.

While the warm tones and cosy ambience make the barn a snug and romantic setting for an indoor wedding, the picturesque grounds lend themselves to the dreamiest of outdoor celebrations. Locate at the end of a stunning natural aisle lined with lavender, the handcrafted oak arbour, set within the pretty and peaceful Walled Garden, is an idyllic backdrop for al fresco ceremonies. Flanked with neatly manicured lawns and fragrant flower beds, it is a picture-perfect setting for the vows as well as a drinks reception and garden games.

Adding to the venue's versatile celebration spaces, The Stable Barn, which formerly housed prize-winning horses, was unveiled in 2018. This stunningly designed setting offers warm timber interiors, striking light installations, glorious views across the paddocks - and the perfect setting for a wedding breakfast for up to 156 guests. Completing the carefully designed spaces, the Tack Room is a haven of comfort complete with mirrors, soft towels, hairstyling tools and cosmetics for the wedding party to steal away to relax and refresh amidst the festivities.

The bespoke approach continues with the catering: your menu will be designed around your tastes, whether you'd like a traditional roast, bangers and mash or exquisite fine dining - and there are even street food options from food trucks if you're seeking a more informal vibe.
