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.
The Cart barn was a beautiful place to stay set in a stunning location with amazing walks right on your door step. Nicola was welcoming and friendly and met us when we arrived. The interior of the barn was beautiful and a lovely place to relax in the evenings. It was east to find and away from main roads so at night it was wonderfully quiet and dark so we could see the stars!
Our dog loved it, particularly the stock of rabbits in the orchard that he failed to catch despite valiant efforts!
Loved this place and will book again!

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.

Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan your own, unique day at Hendall.
Me and my family had a great stay over the Christmas period. Nicola was a great host and very responsive even over Xmas.
I would love to visit again some time.

We couldn’t be happier with our choice of Hendall Manor for our wedding. The venue itself is absolutely stunning – elegant, versatile, and filled with charm – it truly created the perfect setting for our special day. From the very beginning, Viki and Nicola were incredible. Their support, guidance, and attention to detail made the whole planning process so smooth and stress-free. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and we always felt in safe hands.
On the day, everything ran flawlessly thanks to their hard work and care behind the scenes. Our guests were blown away by the venue, and we honestly couldn’t have chosen a better place to celebrate. Hendall Manor will always hold such a special place in our hearts, and we are so grateful to Vicky and Nicola for making our wedding day everything we dreamed of and more.

We thoroughly enjoyed our wedding day on the 10th June 2026 and honestly couldn’t have asked for a more magical experience. The venue exceeded all of our expectations and provided the perfect setting for such a special occasion.
A huge thank you to Viki, Nicola & Peter who were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, helping us with all the little details, including deciding where decorations should go, which made the whole planning process so much easier and less stressful.
We also stayed in the Cart Barn accommodation, which was incredibly comfortable, spacious, and perfectly suited to our needs. It was wonderful to have such a relaxing and well-equipped place to stay before and after the wedding.
Thank you to everyone involved for helping create memories that we will cherish forever. We would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful wedding location with exceptional support and service.

We are always surprised how many couples aren’t sure if they want a wedding videographer when we first talk to them about their day. With that in mind, we thought we would list the advantages of hiring a videographer to capture your day that you can treasure forever.
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 had our wedding at Hendall Manor barns in June 2023. Hendall was the first venue we visited and we knew we didn’t need to look anywhere else. Nicola and Peter have created the most stunning venue – immaculate and beautifully restored – it is the most perfect, breath-taking place that also feels so relaxed and welcoming.
Sasha & Ted
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!
Isabel and Tom
Nicola , Peter and Viki are amazing and so helpful though out always on hand to help answer questions and support us though the planning!
Amazing place to get married so special! So many guests commented on how amazing it was and so much space for photos throughout the day.
Matt Butler
From our first visit, we knew Hendall was where we wanted to get married.
The warmth and character of both the venue itself but also you all made it totally unmatched.
We are so lucky to celebrate in such a stunning place and we are grateful for all your support along the way.
