BRESSINGHAM HALL & HIGH BARN, IP22 2AA 01379 320 340 | www.bressinghamhall.co.uk The High Barn at Bressingham Hall is a breathtaking space that’s perfect for both ceremonies and wedding breakfasts. The impressive traditional brick and stone building has a wooden frame with exposed beams and high ceilings. Beautifully renovated, it’s a romantic big-day backdrop, full of character with contemporary finishing touches to complement its authentic charm. Celebrate in style You can say ‘I do’ inside the High Barn with up to 120 guests or outside in the courtyard or gardens. The world-renowned gardens are what really set this Norfolk gem apart. Spanning 17 acres, they’re bursting with colours, plants, trees and water features, providing a wealth of great photo opportunities. Outside the front of the barn is a sunny, spacious courtyard landscaped in soft romantic hues, ideal for confetti, sparkler shots, drinks and canapés. Behind the building lies the secret walled garden, with paths and a lawn lined with buddleia and lavender plants – the perfect spot for enjoying the venue’s in-house garden games.
