The Out Barn
Your Wedding Weekend Starts Here
For one weekend, the whole of Clough Bottom is yours. Arrive on Friday and set the barn up at your own pace. Marry on Saturday with Pendle Hill in the window. Wake up on Sunday to brunch, Bloody Marys and the people you love still here.
Our Estate Takeover Package is designed for 120 guests, with room for up to 150 seated and 200 in the evening. Twenty-seven of your closest guests sleep on the estate, in our 17th-century farmhouse, Coach House Cottage, the Dairy Cottage and five luxury lodges, all included.
A wedding weekend, not just a wedding day
We believe the best weddings aren't rushed. That's why every couple gets exclusive use of the entire estate, Friday to Sunday. Time to set up exactly how you've imagined. Time to celebrate properly. Time to enjoy the morning after with the people who matter most.
From the Crémant we source directly from a family vineyard in France to the Sunday farewell brunch, with Bloody Marys and Mimosas, every part of the weekend is looked after by your own wedding coordinator.

Although the venue is stunning, the real amazing thing about the out barn was its incredible staff! They totally supported and inspired us to have two ceremonies, celebrating both of our heritages. The staff gave us loads of ideas on how to structure our day and make it flow really well.

I’m a very detail oriented person and no request made to Jess, our designated coordinator, was too much of an ask! Anything I needed she was there to help or give me the answers to! Our wedding turned out to be everything I dreamed of and more and I can’t thank Jess and the rest of the team at The Out Barn enough for all of their help!

We had the lovely Alice taking care of us and she is a credit to the Out Barn and honestly made the planning process so easy and I felt truly in safe hands, which as I did a lot myself was a big ask to feel such at ease. I couldn't recommend this venue enough and the team are a real credit to how this venue operates! It was the most perfect day and we will be forever grateful!
