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 had the most wonderful wedding at Hendall in October. From the very beginning, Viki, Nicola and Peter were so helpful, and we fell in love with the venue at first sight.
On the day, everything ran so smoothly with their help, and we had the most wonderful day. What a beautiful venue and grounds to celebrate in, thank you so, so much to all of you.
And the new Cart Barn is just gorgeous!

Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan your own, unique day at Hendall.
That’s exactly the question Vicky & Steve were faced with earlier this year. As the Government announced an easing on wedding restrictions to allow up to 30 attendees, many couples were faced with this daunting decision. Should they have a Sussex barn small wedding?
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!

The moment we viewed Hendall Manor Barns we knew we wanted to get married there and didn’t worry about looking anywhere else. The reviews on their website of previous couples said exactly the same and we could see why.
The venue is absolutely stunning. The grounds are beautiful and the barn is fantastic.
We hired both the accommodation barns and arrived the afternoon before with some of our wedding party and family which just made it perfect.
From the first meeting with Nicola and Peter, we knew that we would be in good hands and we certainly were. Viki was also brilliant at getting back to us with numerous silly questions via emails.
Using suppliers from their recommended list makes choosing so easy and again reassuring because they know the venue already. This helped make the organising much easier.
We can’t rave about this venue enough! We had so many lovely comments from our guests and we were on a high for weeks!
Lynn and Mark
What an incredible little find! We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend in this tasteful, well equipped and wonderfully renovated barn.
Nicola was very welcoming along with her dogs.
10/10 would highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

Can’t thank Viki, Nicola and Peter enough. Our wedding was unforgettable thanks to them! They’re so organised and true experts at what they do. The venue itself is beautiful and the accommodation on site is perfect, it made our wedding all the more special! Thank you so much

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.
