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 day turned out even more beautifully than we could have ever imagined, and so much of that is thanks to this incredible venue and team. From the very beginning, they went above and beyond, and were highly organised, attentive and genuinely caring. Every detail was thoughtfully handled and we felt completely supported throughout the whole process.
The venue itself is stunning, but it’s the warm, approachable team that truly made it special. It all flowed so seamlessly and we’re beyond grateful!
Ella & Ian
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.

Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan your own, unique day at Hendall.
Choosing Hendall Manor Barns for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the one — we didn’t even need to look anywhere else. The mix of beautiful old architecture, soft light, and modern touches gave it such a special atmosphere that felt completely us.
Nicola, Peter, and Viki were incredible from start to finish. Their warmth, care, and attention to detail made us feel so supported throughout the whole process. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and we knew our day was in the best hands possible.
The grounds are breathtaking — every corner feels like it’s made for photos — and they gave us the most magical backdrop to remember our day by.
We also loved the recommended supplier list; it made planning so much easier and introduced us to some truly amazing people who helped bring our vision to life.

Nicola, Peter (NP, we named them ‘no problem’ as they could sort anything and everything!) and Viki were brilliant in making our day run like clockwork, guiding us through the process to make sure it was organised, fun and individual, just what we wanted. Having such fantastic accommodation on site was also a really bonus.
Thank you Hendall Manor Barns for being such a stunning backdrop and hosting a really magical day.
Flo & Ian
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.
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
Nothing was too much trouble for Nicola, Peter and Viki and our guests were raving about how well they day was run. The on-site accommodation is perfect for getting ready and relaxing before and after the day. Being dry-hire we were able to design everything just the way we wanted, but Hendall shared their expertise on supplier recommendations and they were all faultless. There’s truly nothing we would have changed about our wedding day and we couldn’t recommend Hendall more.
