Winterbourne Medieval Barn

Such a beautiful barn venue for a wedding!We held our wedding ceremony at Winterbourne Medieval barn and then went outdoors and had a drinks reception on the barn’s lawns outside. We used all the grounds and have some lovely photos taken in the Barn’s garden. I loved the huge double barn doors! This venue is perfect if you’re looking for a rustic barn wedding, an alternative to a hotel/stately home wedding, or a unique place to get married. Our guests all commented what a lovely venue for a wedding!Organising our wedding at the barn was super easy and affordable. There’s different options for all different types of events with hire available from a few hours for just a ceremony to a few days for a full DIY dry hire wedding venue. By using our own wedding suppliers and the Winterbourne Barn recommended ones wedding suppliers (florist, cater, harpist etc) we were able to organise exactly what we wanted to create our dream wedding day to suit our budget!Matt and Rheanne were great help both on the day and ahead, getting everything we needed set up exactly as we pictured.The barn is in South Gloucestershire, very near to Bristol so many of our not local guests chose to make a long weekend of our wedding and enjoyed exploring Bristol too. Bonus!We’d definitely recommend Winterbourne Medieval Barn for anyone looking to get married in the Bristol / Gloucestershire/ South West.

The Trustees of the Barn have accessed local and national funding to meet their charitable commission priorities, which they are blatantly not doing in the day to day running of the Barn, as witnessed by the malicious and relentless stifling of a small locally owned and once thriving Three Engineers Brewery- a micro brewery running from one of the refurbished Byres on site that was in receipt of significant Heritage Lottery funding with the express purpose of supporting. As such, given the increasingly poor management, the reporting by many members of the local community of the Barn Trustees to a variety of official bodies, I would not support the use of the barn for events/weddings or any other type of activity.
