About
Setting

Established by Yard Space Events, Old Gore Barn is a charming street-food wedding venue situated in the picturesque village of Calmsden, Gloucestershire. With over a decade of experience in venue management, they have channelled their passion for flavour, fire and creative catering into bringing you memorable and unique events in the heart of the Cotswolds.

Vibe

This newly renovated barn offers an expansive space for all aspects of your celebration.

They are licensed to hold civil ceremonies of up to 115 guests, giving you the opportunity to stage your entire day there. Exchange your vows in front of their woodburning stove, surrounded by natural greenery, exposed beams, and contemporary Crittall-style doors, creating a light, airy ambience.

Transition your guests to the heart of the venue, their courtyard, to enjoy a relaxed drinks reception overlooking the Cotswolds valleys. Their carefully curated canapés and crisp Prosecco will be sure to get your taste buds tingling for your main meal! Hosted in the ‘long barn,’ enjoy a feast of Middle Eastern-inspired dishes, stone-baked pizzas, or their twist on tacos, all within view of their outdoor kitchen and Argentine Asado fire pit.

Continue with the street-food theme by serving puddings from the kitchen hatches, where your guests can help themselves to churros, gelato, or warm chocolate brownies. Enjoy your evening celebrations up until midnight, with use of the venue’s state-of-the-art Funktion One sound system, a fully-stocked bar, and delicious late night food options such as burgers, bao buns and their head chef’s renowned savoury doughnuts!

A MASSIVE thank you from Seb and I for a BRILLIANT day. Everyone had an amazing night, they loved you guys, your hospitality, the venue etc. The guests wouldn’t stop asking how we found the venue, I imagine they’ll be telling their friends about it too. You guys are rock stars and the food was incredible. We’ve had pretty much all the guests say it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding (I think we said it ourselves too)!

We have no idea where to begin – Sunday was literally the BEST day of our lives and you all played such a huge part in that.

From start to finish you guys made it so easy and collaborative and you are all absolute pros at what you do as well as being such warm, lovely people. You felt like the perfect match for us and the whole vibe of the day including all of the incredible food! It was all perfection. We now have guests asking us if we can make it an annual festival!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for a day perfect for us, relaxed and full of love. Our guests left with such special memories of the day and we are still very much in the glow of it all.

Thank you so much for everything on Thursday. We honestly had the best day and have not stopped receiving lovely comments about the food, venue and staff from all our guests. The venue and food surpassed our already high expectations we had of Old Gore. It felt so special and unique to any other weddings we’ve been to and we want to do it all again.

An extra thank you to Emily for everything in the run up and the smooth coordination on the day, Abby for all your emails in the run up, and the lovely smiley Laura who took over in the evening. And everyone else who we’ve forgotten to mention to help make our day so special. Everyone was wonderful.

We wanted to say a massive THANK YOU to Clayton, Arabella, Oli and all of your lovely staff who made the day so seamless and we absolutely loved everything about it!

The cheese cake was absolutely amazing, the wines we didn’t even taste beforehand but we couldn’t have chosen any better, food was brilliant, and the table set up was EXACTLY what we’d imagined!

The barn was just gorgeous and all our guests commented on how amazing it was to have food being cooked at the reception and what a beautiful venue it is – we honestly couldn’t have been happier with everything so a massive thank you to you all!

What can we say. From coming to visit the barn whilst it was still being built to our wedding weekend just gone.

We can’t thank everyone at Old Gore enough. Especially Clayton on the day! Nothing was too much trouble and they made everything flow so seamlessly. We had lots of comments on this during the day and after which made us feel so happy as sometimes weddings can be chaotic! Just what we wanted.

Incredible food, good drink and a venue of dreams. Thank you for helping us create our dream wedding. Forever grateful!

We just wanted to say an absolutely huge thank you to all of you. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and we were over the moon with how seamless everything was. Working with you guys from beginning to end has been completely stress-free. I’m sure you get loads of emails like this but we really were so impressed with everything. The food, wine, atmosphere, venue, service was impeccable. Special thanks to Emily for going above and beyond and trekking out into the cold fields for photos and showing us the best spots.

FAQs
*Do you have accommodation onsite?

Whilst we don't have onsite accommodation, we have some in-company options that are local to the venue. Our company flagship pub, The Stump, is situated less than a mile from Old Gore, and boasts ten contemporary-country ensuite bedrooms, as well as a brand new events space which can hold pre or post-wedding events for up to 50 guests!

A further 10-minute drive will take you to our second pub, The New Inn, with 14 ensuite bedrooms and a garden suite fit for any bride or groom-to-be! Our country cottages, Montreal House and Casina Cottage are the perfect space for your wedding party or family to gather during your celebrations and are both just a 10-minute drive from OGB. We are in the heart of the Cotswolds, a holiday hotspot, so you will not be short of accommodation options for yourselves or your guests!

Can we use our own caterers and do you offer corkage?

All catering is provided in-house by our talented street-food chefs! Our kitchen team take pride in curating exceptional menus to suit every taste, sourcing only the finest produce from local vendors.

Our refined wine selection is all biodynamic, and supports independent, family run vineyards in Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and New Zealand.

Can we have a church wedding?

There are lots of churches local to Old Gore, so if you choose to get married in a church, you can still use the barn as your venue for your reception, wedding breakfast and evening party.

Do you have minimum guest numbers?

We have minimum guest numbers for different days of the week. Monday - Thursday is a minimum of 65 adults. Friday and Sunday are 80 adults. Saturdays and Bank Holidays are 90 adults.

Can we bring our own suppliers?

Of course! We are open to any suppliers, from photographers to florists and bands. We have a comprehensive list of recommended suppliers on our website, who are local and have worked at the barn before! You are by no means limited to this list, and can choose your own suppliers to bring into the barn.
