The Over Farm Barn is more than 160 years old and was built as storage for grain when it was part of the Highnam Estate. Apart from a good clean and the installation of electric lighting, the Barn is still in it’s original state, with magnificent elm beams and flagstone flooring. This gives the barn a great atmosphere for any party and makes is an ideal venue for a rustic wedding reception, traditional barn dances, mediaeval banquets, beach parties or whatever theme that you can dream up!

You're missing out! 🧑🏻‍🍳

If you haven’t tried Over Farm Catering yet,
then you’re simply missing out.

Looking for a wedding venue with the full package, including in-house catering to take care of your wedding food?
Then we’re the venue for you. 🤌🏻✨

We understand that every couple has different preferences and requests, which is why at Over Barn you’re welcome to source your own external food suppliers if you wish. That being said, after trying our food at our open days, nearly all of our wedding couples choose Over Farm Catering — and once you try it, you’ll understand why.

Steve, Ed and the team can create mouth-watering canapes, a traditional three-course meal to a more relaxed dining experience with BBQs and hog roasts.

If you’re looking for a venue that ticks all the boxes, come and visit us on Sunday 28th June at our Open Day.

Happy Anniversary, Grace & Oliver 🥂🤍

This time last year, you were getting ready to say “I do” — and what a beautiful day it was. From the incredible handmade flowers and decorations to the seamless transition of your ceremony styling into the reception, every detail was filled with love and creativity. It looked just as stunning indoors as it did for the ceremony ✨

Our team is always delighted to help bring your vision to life, including thoughtfully reusing your ceremony décor to style your tables — just let us know your preferences through our wedding planning portal.

And of course, we can’t forget the lovely Doris 🐾 who made the day even more special!

Who’s setting up your tables on the big day? 💭

While you’re sipping bubbles, enjoying canapés, and catching up with your favourite people, our team will be busy behind the scenes transforming your space for your wedding breakfast ✨

It all comes down to great communication. Our online wedding portal makes it easy to plan your table layout, organise seating, note any dietary requirements, and you can even send photos of how you want it set up. We do work within a set time frame, so if you’re dreaming up something more elaborate, we’ll always let you know if extra help (like a stylist) might be needed.

✨ Questions we get asked:

Can we have casual seating without a table plan?
Absolutely! This works perfectly with our buffet-style menu. If you’re choosing something off the 'plated mains' menu, we’ll need a seating plan so we can serve your guests smoothly. The courtyard has lots of seating and sometimes especially for BBQ's couples may wish guests to enjoy the warm weather and eat outside. 🌞

Do you provide tableware?
Yes — cutlery is included with your menu price. Style depending on your choice of food, and we provide white napkins too (or you’re welcome to bring your own for a personal touch). Table cloths are included.

What style of tables do you have?
We offer round tables seating up to 10 guests, with space for up to 120 in our barn. Prefer something different? Banquet tables are available to hire, and we’ve even had couples use our picnic benches indoors for a relaxed, rustic feel — it looks incredible 🤍

Got more questions? We’re always here to help make your day seamless. Please email us on [email protected]
