Barn Hire

Terms and Conditions

Venue Hire Agreement

Please read carefully 

​

Venue Use

  • The Barn is a shared space; events are not exclusive. Guests from the campsite or pub may listen to your music — please welcome them.

  • The venue is licensed; no personal drinks are permitted in the Barn or gardens.

  • The Barn may not be suitable for all events — please ensure it meets your needs before booking.

​

Music & Noise

  • We hold a PRS licence, but heavy bass genres (e.g. drum & bass, house, techno) are not permitted.

  • All music must finish by 11 pm; power is cut automatically at 11:30 pm.

  • The Barn has a noise limiter set to 95 decibels. If the indicator flashes red, you have 5 seconds to reduce the volume or power will cut for 5 minutes.

  • Staff may take readings and request reductions. These measures ensure we keep our music licence.

​

Decorations & Clean-Up

  • Decorations are welcome, but no sprays or confetti.

  • All decorations must be removed, and the Barn left clean and tidy by 9 am the next day.

  • Failure to clean up may result in loss of deposit.

  • Please bag and bin all rubbish.

​

Food & Catering

  • No buffet-style setups inside the Barn.

  • External catering vans are permitted with a 4★+ hygiene rating certificate

  • The hirer is responsible for guest behaviour and adherence to all terms.

​

Site Conditions
