    Would not recommend this venue. They pretend to be all lovely to start with until they get your deposit from you. They are all about money grabbing. I had an issue and changed my mind on this venue and they then threatened me with legal action. Caused me so much stress and upset and were extremely nasty to me in emails. Stay well clear from this venue is my advice!

    Absolutely wonderful in every way, that meant our wedding day was everything we could have wished for. The venue is beautiful and spacious. Despite not having ideal weather on the day, the facilities and venue are so suitable that the damp day did not have any effect! The catering was super, staff most courteous and helpful throughout. Sophie was utterly professional and gave us really helpful advice and support both before and discreetly throughout the day, as required. We cannot thank Bridget and Sophie enough for a truly memorable wedding day that was personal and special and we will always treasure.

    We got married on the 28th January at relatively short notice at Smeetham Barn Hall. Right from the off Bridget and Sophie were extremely helpful, so friendly and always on hand with answers and advice about preparing for a perfect wedding day. Along with Splinters Catering, they provided the perfect day for us. Everything ran so smoothly, we didn’t have to even think about anything. The mix of facilities they offer along with being able to provide some alcohol yourself (they amazingly charge no corkage which is very unusual) makes a perfect venue. We received so many compliments about how well the barn and marquee were presented twinkling with fairy lights and looking so cosy and welcoming. Although it was January the whole place is warm and welcoming. The private room for the family to use with a sofa, mirror and table etc is another very welcome addition to store flat shoes or have a moment of quiet time if everything gets too much! We used Wilton & Flower (who work very closely with Smeetham) to hire decoration accessories which took a further element of stress out of things as they set out everything and packed it all away again and we couldn’t have wished for better, it looked stunning and fitted in with the look of the barn perfectly. The bar at local pub prices is another plus point. Overall an excellent choice for a wonderful memorable day!

    We had this amazing place for our venue after the wedding weekend just gone .wow . The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Bridgett,sophie and team out did them self . Their professionalism was amazing. When we got to the venue they basically took over (in a nice n pushy way) and just reminded us the timings but played it by ear .just so we could enjoy the day and not have to stress. I would highly recommend this venue

    This venue is incredible! The barn and the grounds are stunning and provided us with the perfect cosy, rustic winter wedding theme that we were after. Bridget and Sophie were also so lovely and responded promptly to any queries. They both made us feel so special, not just on the day, but throughout the whole planning process. It also massively helped to have some trusted suppliers included in the package (which took all the stress out of it) and they all did a fantastic job of giving us the wedding of our dreams! We were so well looked after! I would thoroughly recommend this venue to any couple! I bet it looks gorgeous in the summer too, but I especially loved it for a winter wedding!
