Lovingly restored, Hendall Manor Barns is a very beautiful, private, wedding and events venue in the heart of the East Sussex countryside.
Our glorious split-level Stone Barn is very adaptable for weddings and receptions of varying sizes, including small & intimate, as well as formal dining, ceremonies and dancing.
Two converted barns provide versatile accommodation depending on your requirements. A spacious, three bedroom converted Old Granary for up to 8 and The Cart Barn, recently renovated for 2.
Hendall provides a considerable space both within and directly outside that is full of character, that can be adapted for a multitude of different uses.
The Venue here at Hendall Manor Barns consists of three interconnecting buildings (The Stone Barn, The Old Dairy and a caterer’s kitchen in the former Calf Pens) surrounding a sizeable central courtyard with a lawn and a raised terrace.
The Stone Barn is an impressive building, almost 100ft in length and is arranged on two distinct levels connected by steps and a ramp.
The Old Dairy, formerly the old milking parlour offers a flexible and comfortable conference/studio room.
We are proud to announce we have been awarded with the 2024 Commercial Award for our Cart Barn conversion. If you are considering an award winning stay, please get in touch!

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.
We had the most wonderful wedding at Hendall in October. From the very beginning, Viki, Nicola and Peter were so helpful, and we fell in love with the venue at first sight.
On the day, everything ran so smoothly with their help, and we had the most wonderful day. What a beautiful venue and grounds to celebrate in, thank you so, so much to all of you.
And the new Cart Barn is just gorgeous!

Molly & I are so extremely grateful for everything you’ve done which has helped gift us with the best wedding day. Our favourite position generally being background characters in events, we were approaching the day with a bit of anxiety and stress about all the attention and business of the day, however, we couldn’t have enjoyed it more. Everything ran so smoothly, the food was delicious, the waiters and helpers were wonderful and the venue provoked a lot of amazing feedback. Everyone absolutely loved the day.
Once again, thank you for all you have done, your venue is amazing, we had a gorgeous day with gorgeous weather (somehow!!) and it was such a pleasure to get to know Peter & Nicola and the whole team at Hendall.

We love the variety of working with a plethora of great suppliers here at Hendall so were delighted when Gillian and Laura from Sussex Celebrants contacted us to say they had written a blog all about Hendall.
From the minute we walked into Hendall Manor Barns, Nicola and her team gave us absolute confidence that we would be well looked after. They answered all of our questions, helped us understand all the complexities of organising a wedding, and had us feeling completely at ease throughout.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and lovingly renovated, as are the on-site accommodations and the surrounding area is just so beautiful and peaceful.
We’d like to give a massive thank you to all the team at Hendall for helping to make our wedding day truly memorable!
Thanks again for everything, we will definitely be in touch closer to our anniversary to organise a stay!

Here at Hendall Manor Barns we are all about individuality, so we were thrilled to host a styled shoot to be featured on Festival Brides website, supporting all things quirky & colourful!
Barns are so versatile and can be ‘dressed’ in so many unique and different ways that they offer great scope for creativity and design… so, why have a barn wedding?
We cannot thank Hendall Manor Barns enough for giving us the most perfect wedding day. From our very first visit, we fell in love with the venue and the amazing team – Nicola, Viki and Peter – who supported us every step of the way.
They made us feel like the only wedding, accommodated all our requests, and ensured everything ran seamlessly. On the day, Nicola and Viki took all the pressure away with their calm, professional presence, and our guests haven’t stopped saying how wonderful it was.
The on-site accommodation was the perfect finishing touch – the ideal start and end to the best day of our lives.

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.
