The Terrace, Lawns & Grounds

The large, raised south-facing terrace and lawn at Hendall is ideal for wedding and drink receptions. The terrace can also double as a performance stage overlooking the lawn area below. This beautiful outside area offers a stunning, tranquil setting for both wedding receptions and parties, as well as charity events and exhibitions.

The Terrace

The terrace features outdoor wooden tables, chairs and parasols along with benches, olive trees, planters and potted box hedges.

In the evening, the festoon lighting that runs the length of the terrace is switched on, and the main house is floodlit, creating a wonderful backdrop during the evening.

The Lawn

The main lawn is beautifully manicured and mown ahead of each event held at Hendall. The Terrace and Lawn are completely enclosed ensuring all guests are able to remain together in one central location.

A heater is available during the colder months to keep guests warm.

Photo Opportunities

Couples have access, along with their photographer, to the other beautiful & private areas within the grounds.

The pond, wooden swing, orchard, fields and private lawns offer wonderful opportunities to capture some fantastic photography for wedding photos.

Testimonials

  • From start to finish our Golden Wedding Anniversary was perfection.

    We celebrated our Golden Wedding Anniversary at Hendall Manor Barns in September 2024.
    From start to finish all was perfection and we had the most wonderful, memorable day.

    Nicola, Peter and Viki, were charming and could not have been more helpful. At the initial meeting with Nicola and Viki, they went through every detail of what we might like to consider from the layout of the tables to flowers to photographer, etc., etc. including a substantial list of recommended caterers. We chose Elliott Catering and were blessed with Lisa who was equally delightful, helpful and organised.

    Hendall Manor Barns are set in beautiful countryside, between Crowborough and Uckfield, at the end of a long driveway. The buildings themselves are attractive, stone construction making a lovely light and airy venue. There is a pleasant terrace and inner courtyard for guests wishing to take a break or enjoy drinks before or after the main event. There is ample parking, under cover and close to the venue.

    Our guests wrote afterwards to say what a wonderful day it had been, how much they enjoyed themselves and are still mentioning it nearly six months later! Several guests who live locally, commented that they were unaware such a charming and delightful spot existed and they would definitely bear it in mind for a future occasion. There was also high praise for Lisa and her catering team.

    The care and consideration that was shown to us from start to finish was faultless. We cannot recommend Nicola and Peter highly enough. It was like a second wedding reception without the nerves.
    Thank you!

  • The new Cart Barn is just gorgeous

    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!
