www.min dycoe.com EDEN BARN, CA17 4PQ 01768 341 461 | www.edenbarn.co.uk Eden Barn is a traditional 200-year-old Westmorland stone barn that was transformed after the owner’s daughter asked if she could hold her reception there in 2015. The small family-run venue is full of 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 beautifully landscaped grounds. There’s also a new Couples Lounge that’s 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 Couples can tie the knot in the main barn or in the adjoining reception/ bar area, which has 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. Al fresco ceremonies take place under the hand-crafted pergola with a breathtaking scenic backdrop. There are also several historic churches nearby, including the charming St Theobald’s, which is only half a mile away. WE LOVE... The rustic barn is pet friendly, and couples can book the services of local caters, Southcott Events. 16 WEDDINGS AT HUNDHOWE, LA8 9AB 07788 906 164 | www.hundhowehospitality.com Hundhowe is a new wedding venue that’s been decorated to create a homely yet elegant feel.
