Nestled in the heart of England's Surrey Hills just south of Guildford, Surrey, Gate Street is a romantic venue for weddings and other milestone events. This family-run property is also a working farm home to English Longhorn cattle, Lleyn Sheep, and Mangalitsa Pigs. The barn and its surroundings have been home to countless celebrations for over 20 years.
Facilities and Capacity
Gate Street Barn is available to host weddings all year long, no matter the weather. You can start your day in the Tack Room and the Old Dairy, two getting-ready rooms where you'll be able to spend time with your party. Then, you may head to The Barn for the ceremony or follow the bluebell-lined paths through the woods for a fairytale-worthy blessing.
The Barn can seat up to 150 guests, while evening receptions or less formal occasions can host 200 attendees. Inside The Barn, you can enjoy the warm wood finishes and exposed beams wound with twinkling fairy lights. It's joined to both The Orangery and Pheasantry, allowing you to smoothly move between event spaces as the day unfolds. In the warmer months, you can also hold your reception in the beautiful landscape gardens. Wood-burning stoves add a touch of cosiness for weddings in autumn and winter.
Onsite Accommodation
Once the celebrations have drawn to a close, end the day on a high by booking the convenient onsite accommodations that can sleep up to 28 people. The Hayloft is a popular choice for the newlyweds with its abundance of rustic charm. The Farmhouse, beside The Barn, has seven double rooms and access to the tennis court and heated swimming pool in the summer. The Stable Flat, which can be connected to the Tack Room, is well-suited for friends and family of the couple. It has two double bedrooms and a private garden, ideal for turning the celebration into a countryside getaway. Those who want to treat themselves to a glamping experience will enjoy the convenience and charm of the Shepherd's Hut, with views of the Longhorn Cattle on the farm. The Stork Hut and The Pool House are also available for overnight stays.
Services Offered
At Gate Street, you can make the most of the breathtaking setting for your wedding photos. The backdrop of the acres of hills and farm's Longhorn Cattle make for pictures that are truly one of a kind. The team here will share the details of six recommended catering companies, offering choices for all tastes and budgets. They're also happy to provide tables and oak cross-back chairs. This property is an exclusive-use venue, offering you peace and privacy for your most important moments.
