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.
Our wedding on Saturday was the best day of our lives. It was truly magical and so much of that was down to you guys and your beautiful venue. Not only is it a stunning place to get married, your experience and organisation made our day run so smoothly. You guided us through every step and made us feel like our wedding was the only one to be held there. To be somewhere where you’re not made to feel like you’re just one of many, was truly amazing. All of our guests commented on what a beautiful place we had chosen.
We cannot thank you enough for your help, guidance, expert advice and support in pulling of the most special day and we will be forever grateful. Thank you for everything. x

We stayed in the big barn the night before and the newly renovated 1-bed 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 imagined! It poured with rain for most of the day but it was still the most magical and incredible day in the absolutely beautiful barn. Nicola and Peter, alongside Amuse catering, made sure everything ran so smoothly.

We were delighted to host Ceinwen and David’s Wedding here at the beginning of September and hope that couples can gain inspiration from the photographs of their day.
We recently had our wedding here, from the initial viewing to the actual day itself Nicola and her team were beyond helpful. The grounds and venue have so many great photo opportunities, and staying on site was perfect as it meant everyone was together and ready for the morning! The communication was clear and quick, and the day itself could not have run smoother, we really can’t thank you enough for all the help and support over the last year and we are so glad we chose Hendall as our venue.
Billie & Christian
Once again a huge thank you from Cheryl and me to you, Peter and all your team for helping to make Olivia and Alex’s wedding such a wonderful occasion. It was a truly memorable day. You have a lovely wedding venue and the on-site accommodation worked so well for us.
Chris
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!
