We are incredibly grateful to all our couples that take the time to write about their experiences with us. We love working with couples to deliver their dream day and we hope their experiences will give you an idea about what to expect.
Wonderful location, stunning building. We appreciated so much the swimming pool and the tennis court as well as the ping-pong table. The hosts have been very helpful and always available to give suggestions.
We wish to be back again in the future.

Lovely brand new converted barn. Great amenities, great countryside location – shops and country pubs only a few miles away. Nicola and Peter were super friendly and welcoming. We wished we had found this place earlier during our stay in England.

Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan your own, unique day at Hendall.
What an absolutely beautiful and amazing barn. My friends and I had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and would recommend it. The weather was great, the pool was pure tranquillity and the whole estate was absolutely stunning. We could have stayed for a lot longer and I plan on returning with my family next year! Thanks, Nicola and family for opening up your estate/barn to us and giving us a very warm welcome.
If I could rate it more than five stars I would!

From our first visit, we knew Hendall was where we wanted to get married.
The warmth and character of both the venue itself but also you all made it totally unmatched.
We are so lucky to celebrate in such a stunning place and we are grateful for all your support along the way.

Perfect, peaceful break in beautiful surroundings. Nicola and Peter were friendly, welcoming & responsive while at the same time unobtrusive – for a secluded stay. Welcomed with a quick property tour to find our bearings (& the all important pool)!
Local info / maps provided inside property. I particularly loved the history provided, clearly well researched & interesting!
The property & surrounding areas are beautifully maintained with modern, colourful yet cozy decor. The open plan space made a small barn feel more than big enough for us, as a couple.
Barn was clean with everything you need. The bath was lovely & deep plus a great rainfall shower! The bed & sofa are super comfy (v.important)!
We were just at the end of swimming pool season, so got to enjoy a brisk morning swim, just a short walk from the barn.
Surrounded by the gorgeous Weald countryside / woodland literally on the doorstep! To top it off we also got a morning visit from the dogs, which made our day! Thank you!

Wow… where to begin…. Nicola, Peter & Viki made our wedding so special… from the planning to the big day… it was seamless…. Nothing was to much trouble at all, we felt in such good hands and our wedding day was the best day of our lives! Everything was taken care of behind the scenes so there was absolutely no stress on the day! Our guests are still commenting on how beautiful Hendall is and how amazing everyone is who is involved!
We can’t Thank Hendall enough for everything they have done for us!
Also staying in the beautiful cottage added an extra special touch to our wedding!
We 100% would recommend Hendall as a wedding Venue, such a stunning venue and wonderful owners!
Many thanks again

Wonderful property in a fantastic location. Nicola was a great host and very responsive. We enjoyed playing snooker, table tennis, tennis and the swimming pool. Lovely walks and pubs in the vicinity.
Thanks Nicola, we had a wonderful weekend!

Due to restrictions Alice and Will’s April wedding was moved and their wedding finally took place in August 2021, showcasing some stunning bright and beautiful blooms.
The Cart Barn is lovely. It’s perfect for a private, peaceful few days away. Pristine inside and comfortable. There’s a good-sized swimming pool to cap it off! The owners were very helpful. Will definitely book again.
