“On Saturday, we had our wedding at Long Acre Barn. It was the most amazing day and there’s nothing that we would’ve changed. We were praying for some good weather so our guests could appreciate the beauty of the venue, and despite the forecast, the rain stayed away. All of our guests adored the venue and were so complimentary of the venue itself, and the lovely, lovely family who run the place. Janet, Johnny, Sally and Emma all helped along the way, from the organisation prior to the wedding, to running the bar on the day, to cleaning up afterwards. For such a good price, we could not recommend this place enough. A truly beautiful place ran by a beautiful family.”

“I just wanted to say what a fabulous day we had at your wedding venue. Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The venue is beautiful, wonderful setting lovely facilities. Janet and her family made the day run smoothly ,it was perfect. If you want a wedding venue or a party venue this is AMAZING. Thoroughly recommended.”

“I am always a little hesitant to post about new wedding venues, as when I find one that we really love not only for the venue, but the love that has been put into creating it, the gorgeous people who run it and the fact that I’d quite like to keep it secret for only those that discover it… however, Long Acre Barn is a very venue that whilst not in the heart of the Lakes as many know it, is in a truly beautiful setting that is accessible, has amazing facilities, one of the most helpful and friendly couples running it who truly want the best for not only their guests but also those providers (caterers!!) who are working there to give a fabulous experience for those who choose to be married and celebrate with those they love and cherish.
Long Acre Barn has been created in the midst of a fabulous working farm. Retaining all those details that remind you of history. We were priviledged enough to cater a wedding for a beautiful couple who have the most glorious day there.
If you are looking for an affordable, beautiful, unique and outstanding venue with facilities to suit every occasion…whatever the weather…wedding, birthday, anniversary or perhaps just because you can… then get in quick before it falls victim (I hope not) to some of the more prescriptive styles of venues where running two or three weddings a week has started to be the norm. I doubt that this will be such a place and one that we hope to have a long and lasting relationship with.”

“There is something very special about Long Acre Barn. It’s beautiful and every where you look there is a story to tell. I feel lucky to have seen it develop and to be able to see it flourish. Janet and her family are the best and have created something that’s hard to describe. You really need to experience it.”
