What people love about us...

"This venue is simply stunning! The Eastfields team are brilliant hosts. They support you from day one with ideas and suppliers to help you make your day exactly how you want it. Our wedding day was perfect in every way - it rained all day and even that didn’t matter. Our guests all celebrated with us in the beautiful barn and danced the night away with our band. Honestly if you’re looking to book a venue where the day is how you want it then this is the place!"

Laura & Ross

"We had an absolutely wonderful stay in all three of Eastfield's buildings. It was a perfect location and place to stay for a big family gathering! The houses were fully kitted out and furnished beautifully. Highly recommend to all."

Hebe

"We were very lucky to come across Eastfields Farm Barns and it was the last venue we looked at but we knew it was definitely the one and was exactly what we were looking for. The setting and the countryside view from the barn were incredible……helpful in providing us with all the information we needed to plan our perfect day…….They made the set up and set down really easy and everything was ready for us to just add our final touches……Thank you again for helping to make our special day so amazing."

Megan & Jordan

"We had a wonderful experience and loved our stay. It was very comfortable, very pretty and the owners made sure we were enjoying our experience. It’s a stunning part of the U.K. with sprawling open fields, picture perfect buildings at the location and a calm and relaxing atmosphere. We had comfortable beds and found the modern, clean and stylish decor very appealing. We also enjoyed walking to a pub down the road and exploring the local village on our journey. You will find delightful pubs, small thatched cottages all around, and plenty of wildlife. A soothing slower pace to it all was a welcome addition to our stay."

Greg D

"The team at Eastfields Farm Barns were fantastic hosts and deserve huge praise for how they ran the day.... So many of our friends commented on how friendly and helpful they were throughout our day. Not to mention the build up to our wedding, originally scheduled in 2020 but with covid causing us to move our date 3 times. They were so calm and understanding, we would recommend Eastfields to anyone. We were so lucky with the weather we had as well and the sunset in the evening was so special. Our pictures are incredible as the venue is so beautiful. Thank you for an unforgettable day!"

Pam & Harry

"We visited Eastfields initially back in January 2019 and totally fell in love with the place so booked our 2020 wedding the next day. The setting was exactly what we both dreamed of – a rustic barn nestled into the rolling countryside. Neither of us had any connection to the surrounding area, yet this place felt so special. A year later and we were just pulling together all our plans when covid meant we had to reschedule. We ended up having to reschedule our plans 4 times and every time the Eastfield Farm team were amazing. They were really flexible and ensured that we always had an option depending on what we went with meaning we could reschedule over and over again easily. Seeing the barn set up with all the lights, tables, tents and stage made everything simply seem so real. Our wedding day was amazing and Eastfields is a beautiful venue. We, our families, and our friends, had an amazing day, and we could not recommend them highly enough."

Nate & Lorna

"We had a great stay at The Old Cart Barn. The rural location is stunning and the floor to ceiling windows and bifold doors gave way to beautiful countryside views. The children enjoyed spotting fish in the pond and we were lucky enough to have some peacocks visit us in the courtyard. We were a group of 10, three families in total and the barn layout means everyone has their own space and privacy and come together in the large kitchen diner and lounge areas. The kitchen is stocked with plenty of essentials for cooking and dining and a large dining table and with plenty of space to sit and eat and chat. We took some lovely walks along the bridal path leading out of the paddock and into the fields and played in the paddock that’s around the barn. We even got some sun and ate lunch outside in the courtyard. The barn was spotless throughout and is well maintained and looked after by the owners who we had the pleasure of meeting during our stay. Would highly recommend!"

Jodie & family and friends

"We both want to say a huge thank you to you and the team. The wedding day was amazing, was the perfect venue which was commented on many, many times on the day and since, and the day went without a hitch and that’s largely down to you guys."

Paul & Jo

"We had the pleasure of staying here and we are very sad to leave! Three families shared the property and the layout is perfect in that everyone has their own space and privacy in respective bedrooms/bathrooms, yet were able to come together in the fantastic shared living area kitchen, which is light, airy, and spacious. The accommodation was spotless and had everything we needed for a stay particular in the kitchen – we’ve never stayed anywhere so well equipped which made catering for everyone both easy and pleasurable. Communication with Eastfields was very easy, and it was a pleasure to meet them during our stay, incredibly helpful and accommodating. We can’t wait to return in the future!"
