Take a look through some of our couples experiences to hopefully gain ideas of how to plan
your own, unique day at Hendall.
We cannot thank Hendall Manor Barns enough for giving us the most perfect wedding day. From our very first visit, we fell in love with the venue and the amazing team – Nicola, Viki and Peter – who supported us every step of the way.
They made us feel like the only wedding, accommodated all our requests, and ensured everything ran seamlessly. On the day, Nicola and Viki took all the pressure away with their calm, professional presence, and our guests haven’t stopped saying how wonderful it was.
The on-site accommodation was the perfect finishing touch – the ideal start and end to the best day of our lives.

Nicola, Peter and Viki made our whole day special and made sure everything ran smoothly. The venue is just stunning, inside and out. We are so pleased we were able to get married here. It suited us all for all our needs as we could stay in the on-site accommodation the night before too. There are so many different places for photo opportunities, the possibilities are endless. I was able to put my own stamp on the venue, using all the bits I had spent time crafting to add little touches to make it so special to us.
Thank you again, we really did have the most perfect day.

We provide a complete alternative to a public or hotel style venue and all events here are organised on an exclusive and bespoke basis where we offer a dry hire fee and you provide via one of our Approved Caterers, the kind of catering that suits your budget and event.
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.

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!
We love the variety of working with a plethora of great suppliers here at Hendall so were delighted when Gillian and Laura from Sussex Celebrants contacted us to say they had written a blog all about Hendall.
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!

Planning for your special day can be so much fun. It is an opportunity to spend time in a stunning location, buy the outfits and shoes you have never before dared spend so much money on and spend time looking for those small touches that will put a smile on all your guests faces. That is exactly what our couple did when planning their Hendall Manor Barns Wedding!
Wonderful property in a fantastic location. Nicola was a great host and very responsive. We enjoyed playing snooker, table tennis, tennis and the swimming pool. Lovely walks and pubs in the vicinity.
Thanks Nicola, we had a wonderful weekend!

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.

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.
From the moment we discovered Hendall, we knew it was where we were going to get married, we didn’t even consider anywhere else.
Right from our first conversations through to the big day, the communication from the team was exceptional. Every question was answered, and all the little details were remembered, making us feel completely supported throughout the entire planning process. Nicola, Peter, and Viki genuinely had our best interests at heart, and they made the entire journey of planning our wedding not only easy but truly enjoyable.
The day before the wedding, the team were fantastic during the setup. They knew exactly what needed to be done, which took all the stress away and allowed us to simply enjoy the excitement.
On the day itself, everything ran seamlessly thanks to the incredible coordination and teamwork. The grounds looked stunning, and Nicola was there every step of the way to ensure everything flowed perfectly. It felt like more than just a venue, we were truly cared for, and we could relax knowing the day was in expert hands.
Nicola went above and beyond from making sure everyone was where they needed to be, to helping with the buttonholes, and even assisting me into the car in my dress. Thank you so much.
We can’t thank the Hendall team enough for giving us such an unforgettable day. This venue is so much more than beautiful, it has a wonderful charm where we have now created the most unforgettable memories.

A truly beautiful venue in gorgeous surroundings! Loved that we had scope to put completely our own stamp on our day but also with great guidance throughout. All of the recommended suppliers were excellent and we always felt reassured that Nicola & team were on top of things. We had such a perfect day – cannot thank you enough!
Thank you so much!
