Venue and Location

Pros:

  • "A truly stunning venue with a welcome to rival its views."
  • "From the stunning landscapes, gorgeous barn and amazing team."
  • "Beautiful location for my daughter's wedding."
  • "The scenery is breathtaking and the barn itself has such a homely, relaxed feel."
  • "The venue itself is perfect - the ceremony barn, reception barn, outdoor areas and stunning views were commented on by all of our guests."
  • "Absolutely beautiful venue, visited for a friends wedding and it looked perfect."
  • "Venue and scenery is beautiful, staff were wonderful."
  • "The building itself is just the right mix of rustic (exposed wood beams and natural stone) together with the modern glass frontage and beautiful patio/garden area."

Cons:

  • "Very pretty, new venue. Long, narrow main room where the ceremonies held. We were near the back. Difficult to hear."
  • "Not enough comfortable chairs for the older visitors that have aches and pains, especially the chairs we sat on when having your meal."
  • "The whole place was spotlessly clean, but there's so much room to put your own stamp on the day with decor and for guests to roam."

Staff and Service

Pros:

  • "The staff really went above and beyond for her and made the day so memorable."
  • "Staff, service, the food, the support and of course the venue itself all just breathtaking!!"
  • "The barn was unreal for the ceremony and wedding breakfast."
  • "Staff very attentive and all ran very smoothly."
  • "The staff are lovely, friendly and very attentive to all your needs."
  • "The owners were lovely, so helpful and accommodating they should be really proud of themselves and the staff."
  • "The family that run it are so well organised and make that extra special effort to make the day so much better."
  • "We were greeted by Cliff when we showed up who was professional and friendly."

Cons:

  • "Ordered vegetarian baguettes. Didn't arrive. Asked again; told there were only bacon baguettes and the chef had left."
  • "As ever, the band was far far too loud. (Though they were very good.)"
  • "I would like to say that I think this is the best wedding venue in the U.K.! I wish you all the good luck in the future not that you will need it as you truly are wonderful in what you do!"

Management and Organization

Pros:

  • "The organisational skills of the entire team were incredible which made the run up to our day very straightforward and stress free."
  • "The organisational skills of the Harker family were super smooth."
  • "In the run up to the wedding, the Harker family and the rest of the team at Eden Barn were so helpful and supportive."
  • "The effort and professionalism of all the staff was exceptional."
  • "Cliff and the team were really friendly, welcoming and helpful."
  • "Cliff, Carolyn and their daughter Andrea felt like an extension of the family with all the planning and making our day perfect, we really can't thank them enough."
  • "The family are so warm, welcoming and genuine which made it extra special."
  • "The Harkers took all the stress away on the day by organising and guiding us through from start to finish."

Cons:

  • "The one thing I would say is that I wasn't the biggest fan of one of our guests being required to play our ceremony music."
  • "Single track roads on approach to the venue need s little care but otherwise, no problems getting there."
  • "The slight disadvantage was because of its location not all guest can book and stay."
