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.
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.

This is an absolutely lovely place to spend a weekend (or longer)! The space is bright, airy and perfectly equipped. The bed is super comfy and huge, and the kitchen has everything you need to cook if you want to do so. One of the nicest dog-friendly places we’ve ever stayed with an enclosed orchard just behind the barn. The shower is amazing and plenty of space to eat and relax with the Smart TV. Highly recommend this place to stay.

Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan your own, unique day at Hendall.
Nicola, Peter and Viki made our whole day special and made sure everything ran smoothly. The venue is just stunning, inside and out. We are so pleased we were able to get married here. It suited us all for all our needs as we could stay in the on-site accommodation the night before too. There are so many different places for photo opportunities, the possibilities are endless. I was able to put my own stamp on the venue, using all the bits I had spent time crafting to add little touches to make it so special to us.
Thank you again, we really did have the most perfect day.

Just a little note to say what a fabulous day we had at Ellie & Scott’s wedding last week. The venue is a great with plenty of space to chat, dance eat and relax.
Most of all though the staff were all fabulous, happy, smiley, friendly and courteous they couldn’t do enough to make sure we all enjoyed ourselves.

Stayed here with three couples and three babies. The place is beautiful and big with lots of things to keep you entertained in the house – we particularly enjoyed the table tennis and pool tables! Nicola was an incredibly helpful host with good recommendations for local pubs with great food (would definitely recommend The Hurstwood pub).
Would come back to stay again!

Thank you so so much for helping make our wedding day the best day ever! You are all incredible and helped us and our guests enjoy such a fun day.
We have had constant comments saying how stunning your venue is and how lovely you all are. We are so grateful for all your hard work and help you provided in helping us plan the day.
Everything was immaculate, the photos look incredible and we are so happy we chose Sarah to do our food. From our initial look around to leaving on the day, you have been so so helpful and we couldn’t have done it without you.
Hope you have a great summer and we will hopefully see you again soon (we will probably book the airbnb barn up for our 1st anniversary)

We stayed in the big barn the night before and the newly renovated 1 bed, cart barn the night of the wedding. Both are so lovely and would go back and stay there outside of the wedding! Thank you so much for making it more special than we could have ever have imagined!

We had our wedding breakfast and evening disco at Hendall Manor in August this year. It was a stunning venue and my husband and I fell in love with it, from the moment we stepped in the door. The service was excellent and we had the confidence knowing our wishes were carried out to the letter. We had such an amazing celebration and so many compliments on the venue from family and friends. I would highly recommend Hendall Manor for your special day. You will have a day to remember for the rest of your lives.

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!
