Amazing venue, highly recommend!

It took us months (and I mean literally months!) to find the Cedar Roof Barn, but we were so glad we were patient. The Cedar Roof Barn was everything we were looking for in a venue and more. Jez and Tara were the most helpful and supportive, gave us help and suggestions when we needed it, but also very laid back and allowed us to do everything that we wanted on our wedding day, and even more. The Venue is very much a DIY venue, we paid to have the lighting set up by the organisers, who were very helpful, and set it up exactly as we had imagined. Everything else we did ourselves, and there were no lists of vendors that we had to stick to, which was great for us to have the freedom to choose rather than having to stick to a predefined list! Overall, if a country wedding full of personalisation and the freedom to design your day exactly as you wish is what you are looking for, the Cedar Roof Barn will be perfect for you!

The perfect venue for our non-tradional wedding

The Cedar Roof Barn was the perfect space for our special day! Bundles of character and charm with all the flexibility we could ask for from a venue. Jez and Tara where fantastic to work with and were always excited to make our plans a reality (and open to all of our mad ideas). From creating an entirely new lighting package to hanging up our pinatas rig system, Jez worked his socks off to make our day perfect. It was an honour to use this space on their family farm and we would 100% recommend this venue. Thank you so much for everything Jez and Tara!

Perfect celebration - beautiful all round

We finally had our wedding party at Cedar Roof Barn in July last year with all our family and friends (married in 2021 during covid) - and honestly couldn't have asked for a better day to finish off all the celebrations!
It's a DIY venue but doesn't need loads added to it to look great, the building is beautiful and surrounded by fields so feels lovely and private, and lovely backdrop for photos.
Jez as Tara were flexible with access for us and suppliers to set up and decorate beforehand, and really helped make our day perfect. We had the best day and all our guests loved it too. Big recommendation and thank you from us! Sophie and Simon x

Brilliant venue

We loved every aspect of the venue, from the isolated location to the many features it provided. From beginning to end, Jez and Tara were very cooperative and flexible, if it meant needing to see the venue for the 5th time or asking numerous questions, they were very accommodating. The venue was stunning inside and out, featuring a lovely fire pit for when it gets cold in the evening, a spacious gardens area for all our guests and even a mini barn which we used as a photos booth. The inside was brilliant as well, with lovely ceder beams, thus giving it it's name (I presume) and a very simplistic concrete floor, which allowed us to decorate however we pleased. All in all, a wonderful venue and amazing for the price too.

The perfect DIY wedding venue!

Wow! This venue was everything we could have hoped for and more.

From the beginning the owner Jez was so accommodating and helped us imagine our wedding at the barn. He responded so quickly and offered add ons to the basic barn price but was with no pressure at all. We added lighting, sound, hay bales and the fire pit then ended up adding the beautiful fairy lights last minute which was no problem.
The flexibility of barn access and visits was excellent and because we did the wedding ourselves early access was so helpful so we didn't have to do it all on one day.

If you're looking for a remote countryside wedding venue and somewhere you can put your own stamp on Cedar Roof Barn is perfect and we will remember our special day forever.

DIY Wedding

We had such a brilliant day for our wedding at the Cedar Roof Barn. Jez and Tara were so helpful and flexible, especially when we needed to move the date because of Covid.
We were able to have a proper DIY wedding and everything was as we wanted. The bonfire option is an absolute must!
Our friends and family are still telling us what a great time they had and one friend has booked her own party at the barn!
Thank you!

Covid wedding

We ended up having to postpone our wedding because of covid, and Tara and Jez were super helpful the whole way through and really made the whole situation much less stressful!
The venue is stunning and made for such a relaxed day, I wish we could do it all again!
