Sedgewell Barn is located on 60 acres of privately owned farmland in the heart of rural North Yorkshire. Close to the charming village of Ainderby Steeple, with its traditional pub and historic church, the venue offers a peaceful countryside escape. The surrounding area features stunning views of the Yorkshire Dales, providing a picturesque and tranquil backdrop for a wedding celebration.
Run by husband and wife Stuart and Catherine Tweddle, along with their friendly team, the venue’s small farm, home to Pedro the Pony, Mr Fuzzy Face, Valais Blacknose sheep, and the trusted companion Max the Sprocker, adds a delightful touch to the overall charm of Sedgewell Barn.
Sedgewell Barn is licensed for civil ceremonies and offers two ceremony rooms to suit different preferences. Couples can choose to exchange vows indoors or take advantage of the outdoor courtyard and terrace area for a ceremony surrounded by nature. The venue’s outdoor seating areas, along with its welcoming Byre and beautiful photo opportunities, create an unforgettable setting for this special moment.
The venue features two interlinked barns for receptions. The Rustic Barn exudes romance and warmth, while the Celebration Barn, with its contemporary design, offers sweeping views of the Yorkshire Dales. These flexible spaces allow couples to design their perfect reception, from intimate dinners to larger celebrations, while offering a seamless flow between events.
For overnight guests, the venue offers 11 deluxe glamping pods, each equipped with private hot tubs, en-suite shower rooms, and kitchens, providing comfort and convenience.
In addition, The Nest, a luxury country cottage with a private hot tub, serves as the ideal bridal suite and honeymoon retreat. Exclusive use of these accommodations for two or three nights ensures privacy and intimacy for the couple and up to 45 guests.
Sedgewell Barn offers couples flexibility in choosing their catering. While the venue has six recommended caterers who are familiar with its facilities and processes, couples are welcome to select any caterer that suits their taste and budget, ensuring the menu is as personal as the day itself.
The local area around Sedgewell Barn offers a range of accommodation options for guests, and taxis are readily available for easy transportation. The nearby village of Ainderby Steeple provides a traditional pub and historic church for those wishing to explore the surrounding countryside.
Sedgewell Barn is easily accessible by road and rail. It is a one-hour drive from Newcastle and Leeds and just a 2.5-hour train journey from London.
The nearest railway station, Northallerton, is only three miles away, and a nearby bus stop at Ainderby Steeple Village Green is within a 15-minute walk of the venue.
Our guests absolutely loved the venue and loved the rustic finish. Everyone commented on how friendly all the staff and suppliers were which was nice!
Thank you to you and the Sedgewell team for sharing your spectacular venue. It really was a wedding of dreams and every vision we had of the day played out in front of our very eyes.

Fab! Really happy with communication and the meetings with Catherine and Ellen. Very stressless experience so far planning our big day!
We had a fabulous weekend and all our guests loved the venue. The whole weekend at the pods made it, especially as we had loads of people travelling from everywhere.
As for the Bridal suite, that really made it for us. It was a great get away as a married couple and gave us that bit of separation from family and friends when the day was done. The whole flat is beautiful and ideal as a bridal suite.
Thanks for everything over the weekend, we won’t forget Sedgewell Barn.

Excellent communication and on hand to answer any questions we may have!
We had our wedding party at Sedgewell Barn in June, and we could not have picked a more beautiful venue to celebrate in! The barn itself is spectacular, but still a blank canvas to really put your own stamp on your wedding and make it personal to you. The surrounding Yorkshire countryside is glorious, and the views from the barn are spectacular. So many of our guests commented on what a beautiful venue we had chosen! From the minute we came to view Sedgewell, Catherine, Stuart, and Louise have been amazing, and they couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming. The newly built bridal suite is beautiful and the perfect place to get ready. The glamping pods meant that all of our closest family and friends could stay on-site, which made it feel more like an entire weekend celebration! Pedro the confetti pony and Mr Fuzzy Face the sheep were the icing on the cake, and we loved having them involved in the day and for the photos! We cannot recommend Sedgewell Barn highly enough. We want to do it all over again, please! Thank you to all of you at Sedgewell who helped to make our day so incredibly special.

We had a fantastic time, and the day couldn’t have been any better. The venue was beautiful, which is why we picked it in the first place. Plenty of freedom to add our own touches and the planners made sure the day ran smoothly. Wouldn’t change a thing.
The bridal suite is absolutely stunning. Nothing else needs to be said.
Thanks once again for the perfect wedding.

We were blown away by Sedgewell Barn as a wedding venue on our first visit there. The barns had everything we were looking for in a wedding venue and we loved the idea of glamping with family and friends before the wedding, giving us a full weekend of celebrations… we could not be happier with how our wedding day went and we’re so grateful to everyone at Sedgewell Barn for helping us pull off our dream day!
We just wanted to take a moment to thank you all so much for everything you did on the day, behind the scenes and leading up – we cannot express how grateful we are. You all have been so wonderful, warm and kind throughout and clearly this fed through the day making everyone so welcome and comfortable!
Thank you again – you guys have something really special and we’ll treasure that we had a little moment of its history!
