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!

Planning a Wedding with your beloved pet?
Whether it’s a dog carrying the rings, a horse roaming the fields with you, or even a cherished photo of a pet who couldn’t be there, these moments remind us that family comes in many forms and love, loyalty, and companionship don’t always walk on two legs.
Hendall Manor Barns is a place where families can celebrate together, without compromise.
Laura and Adam’s beautiful wedding is the perfect example of how a day can be both effortlessly stylish and completely family-friendly.

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.
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.
Sam & Molly
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.

Wow… where to begin…. Nicola, Peter & Viki made our wedding so special… from the planning to the big day… it was seamless…. Nothing was to much trouble at all, we felt in such good hands and our wedding day was the best day of our lives! Everything was taken care of behind the scenes so there was absolutely no stress on the day! Our guests are still commenting on how beautiful Hendall is and how amazing everyone is who is involved!
We can’t Thank Hendall enough for everything they have done for us!
Also staying in the beautiful cottage added an extra special touch to our wedding!
We 100% would recommend Hendall as a wedding Venue, such a stunning venue and wonderful owners!
Many thanks again

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.

Due to restrictions Alice and Will’s April wedding was moved and their wedding finally took place in August 2021, showcasing some stunning bright and beautiful blooms.
Hendall is the most magical place to get married! We had looked at a series of local venues but as soon as we saw Hendall and spoke with Peter we knew this was exactly where we wanted to get married! Peter, Nic and Viki are so wonderfully organised with superb advice making every step so simple, totally stress-free, joyful and productive.
It is a fantastic venue for all weathers and we had a Ceilidh in the evening that fit so well with the barn feeling. It is a stunning interior with such character. They keep the venue is pristine condition and completely personalise the experience.
It is a very special venue, a very generous and kind team and we feel so privileged to have been married there.
Lou & Cal
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.
Mario
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)
Best
