As a wedding photographer, I visit a lot of wedding venues and The Barns at Redcoats is second to none in every way. I recently was lucky enough to spend a weekend photographing two weddings in a row there, and it genuinely was a pleasure. The staff are incredibly professional, in particular Charlie and Charlotte who looked after my couples that weekend. Nothing was too much trouble for them, they catered to every need that my couples and I had, and did all of that with a genuine smile on their faces.

This goes for everyone, from the co-ordinators to the bar staff. The grounds are beautiful for couple portraits, and the decor inside is elegant and perfectly designed for the venue. Plus the food is delicious! When talking to my clients, they were incredibly complimentary about the venue and the staff. I most definitely would and have recommended this venue to couples looking for a barn venue, it is a beautiful wedding venue and I always look forward to returning. Hopefully it won't be too long until I'm back!

Booked the Mother's Day 3 course meal. Booking & any issues before hand were politely & professionally handled by Charlie, her customer service was excellent. The barn is a lovely venue, it was fully booked but plenty of space between tables & a nice burble of noise between all parties without being overpowering. The food was good, certainly no scrimping on portion sizes & it was a shame to see some of the roast potatoes waste. The staff were friendly & attentive without being overpowering. Nice spacing between courses. All in all, a nice experience, nice atmosphere, lots of happy faces & we would go back again.

5 stars do this venue an injustice! It deserves 10! Fantastic food, amazing service from the friendly, professional staff. The rooms are beautifully decorated and the bed was soooo comfortable! A truly beautiful venue for our conference! Thank you!

Lovely lunch service. We ate in the newly refurbished orangery as a table of six. The starters for both the adults and children were great (cheese mini doughnuts and the king prawns on the grill and the avocado dip went down a treat for the kids!) and there was a good choice for mains; the burger was really good quality and the fries were a delight! As we had birthday cake waiting for us at home we didn't try the deserts but we will definitely be back. The staff service is very good, attentive without being overbearing. Well worth it for a meal, can't comment on the hotel but it does look lovely.

Had an incredible lunch at the Farmhouse. The food brought genuine smiles to our faces, their sauces alone were rich and full of flavour! The staff were really friendly and helpful to the extent they helped us celebrate a birthday with some complimentary treats. Decor was rustic yet modern with really nice country setting. Highly recommend!
