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.
We had a great stay in the beautiful and sympathetically restored barn. We loved reading about the history of the farm and how it had evolved into the property it is today. Nicola was extremely responsive to questions prior to arrival and was very friendly when we arrived.
Everything was as described and the kitchen was extremely well equipped – even with a good knife to carve the turkey on Christmas Day! We especially enjoyed being able to walk the dogs straight out of the front door onto the Weald Way with multiple different footpaths to try.

We booked a stay at The Granary for 2 nights over New Year. We were 3 couples with 2 dogs. The converted medieval barn was beautifully and sympathetically converted to a high standard. Lots of character and very nicely styled.
The beds were very comfortable and there was underfloor heating, so nice and cosy. We particularly enjoyed the snooker and table tennis which was a bonus, given the dreadful weather!! Lovely walks from the doorstep.
The host was very kind allowing us to get into the property early and to check out a little later.
If you were to book over the Summer, you may also have use of the swimming pool and tennis court. A lovely stay.
Thank you!!

Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan your own, unique day at Hendall.
The barn has amazing original character with some wonderful large internal spaces for socialising and playing games. We visited in November when the weather wasn’t great and really enjoyed the snooker and table tennis. The bedrooms were very clean and comfortable and the bathrooms and kitchens modern and well-equipped. The location is beautiful, with great walks locally to inviting pubs. It’s a place we would love to return to, perhaps in the summer.

There may be a pandemic where many people are locked down and spending a lot of time at home, but one thing is certain – Love Isn’t Cancelled.
What an absolutely beautiful and amazing barn. My friends and I had a thoroughly enjoyable stay and would recommend it. The weather was great, the pool was pure tranquillity and the whole estate was absolutely stunning. We could have stayed for a lot longer and I plan on returning with my family next year! Thanks, Nicola and family for opening up your estate/barn to us and giving us a very warm welcome.
If I could rate it more than five stars I would!

Wedding food choices and ways of serving food at events are constantly changing. With differing trends making a seemingly sudden appearance, wedding evening reception food ideas are certainly food options that most people look forward to during the evening’s festivities. So here are some ideas for you to look through and really whet the appetite!
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.

An outstanding stay in a fantastically beautiful barn and surroundings. What a charming area and quintessential English countryside location. The Cart Barn was pristine and extremely well equipped throughout including a high end finished bathroom. We brought our dog here and they slept all the way back home with us. That’s always a good sign!
Very comfortable bed and relaxing sofa in which to digest the House’s history, fascinating!
Absolutely first class hosts and thank you for letting be part of it. 100% recommended 🙂
