Your North West Wedding- April/May 2021 (Issue 67)

19 THEMED VENUES EDEN BARN, CA17 4PQ 01768 341 461 | www.edenbarn.co.uk Eden Barn is a small, family-run business that was transformed after the owner’s daughter asked if she could hold her reception at the barn in 2015. The traditional 200-year-old Westmorland stone barn has a rustic elegance that can be tailored to any theme. This beautiful building is packed with rustic charm from the giant chandeliers and exposed stone walls to the limestone flagged floor and vaulted ceiling. Outside there are expansive views, a hand- thatched gazebo and lovely landscaped grounds. A new addition is the Couples Lounge. Complete with a suspended green lighting canopy and wall of mirrors, this room has a boho, relaxed vibe and is available exclusively throughout the day. CELEBRATE IN STYLE In addition to the main barn, there is an adjoining reception/bar area with rustic wooden vaulted ceilings, stone flagged-flooring and cosy seating areas. The bespoke bar is hand-crafted from oak, and above it hangs a striking floral canopy. There’s also a new food preparation area, luxury toilet facilities and underfloor heating throughout. Eden Barn can seat up to 144-day guests on rustic wooden trestle tables, 136 on round versions and 200 for the evening celebration. Outdoor ceremonies take place under the hand-crafted pergola with a stunning scenic backdrop. There are also several historic churches nearby, including the charming St Theobald’s only half a mile away. WE LOVE... The venue is pet friendly and offers the services of local caters, Southcott Events.
