About
Setting

The Granary Estates is set in the Suffolk and Cambridgeshire countryside, in the village of Woodditton. Just five minutes from Newmarket and under an hour from London, it offers a secluded yet easily accessible location. Two beautifully restored barns, connected by a glass walkway, form the heart of the venue, with a private courtyard enclosed by flint walls. Sweeping cornfields provide a picturesque backdrop, combining rustic charm and elegance.

Ceremony

At The Granary Estates, your ceremony is the heart of your wedding day. Their two stunning barns offer a choice of exquisite spaces, each full of character and warmth.

With its intimate atmosphere and historic flint walls, the Flint Barn is perfect for smaller ceremonies of up to 88 guests. The Granary Barn provides a grand yet inviting setting for larger celebrations, featuring original timber beams, soft natural light, and space for up to 175 guests.

Reception

Your reception at The Granary Estates promises an unforgettable celebration in a magical countryside setting. Begin your day with a sun-soaked drinks reception in the private courtyard, framed by historic flint walls and surrounded by picturesque views.

For your wedding breakfast, the magnificent Granary Barn offers a breathtaking backdrop with its exposed timber beams, soft ambient lighting, and spacious layout, accommodating up to 175 guests.

Then, as the evening unfolds, transform the Granary Barn into an unforgettable party space where you and your guests can dance the night away beneath the rustic beams and twinkling lights.

The venue offers onsite accommodation in two cottages, providing a comfortable retreat for guests. From 2025, five luxury lodges will also be available, blending modern elegance with countryside surroundings. The accommodation can host up to 26 guests, ensuring the perfect relaxed stay before and after the wedding.

Food & Drink

Catering is provided by handpicked, award-winning caterers who design bespoke menus to suit individual tastes. Options range from formal three-course meals to relaxed sharing feasts, accommodating all dietary requirements.

The Granary Estates is a beautiful venue with fantastic staff who are so attentive and supportive. Because of the staff, Beth & Abbie mainly, our day went incredibly smoothly, and all of our guests complimented both the venue and the staff.

In the build-up to the wedding, Granary were so responsive to emails with our wacky ideas and always had a solution to any problem that we had.

My husband and I had our ceremony at The Granary Estates. The venue and grounds are just stunning, and have always looked beautifully presented and maintained every time we have visited. Parris and the team were amazing from start to finish on our special day. The communication throughout the whole process of planning up until the day has been faultless. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding venue and professional, friendly team to ensure our day ran smoothly.

Everything was perfect: the organising, the help to plan, the team, the venue, everything on the run-up to the day was so very helpful. The day itself was everything we had dreamed of, and the team were amazing. We couldn’t be more grateful for the support and kindness. It made a magical day even more special.

We looked at 11 venues whilst choosing our wedding venue, but the first time we visited Granary Estates we knew it was the one. We planned our wedding over a couple of years and had so much fun doing so. The Granary Estates team were so enthusiastic and creative when helping us plan our day, it was amazing. They were so well organised and our wedding day went brilliantly.

The beautiful setting of the Granary Estates speaks for itself with its natural flint walls, exposed beams, glass walkway, and intimate barn spaces. But the stand out for us was the gorgeous courtyard garden filled with brightly coloured wild flowers and the corn field that surrounds the venue. We were lucky enough to have a warm sunny day and so really made use of all of the outside spaces which were well maintained and looked after to such a high standard. The team was also fantastic and made sure the day ran seamlessly without ever overly interfering. They guided us and gave us very professional advice when asked but also respected all of our ideas that made our wedding unique to us. Despite it being peak wedding season, we were made to feel very valued and special. The team were easy to communicate with and I really appreciated Joely popping over to the cottages on the wedding morning to reassure us all and to confirm everything was in hand. What stood out was how personable all the staff at the granary were. One reason we chose this venue was that we could bring in our own decorations and entertainment or suppliers without being tied into set packages. There was always flexibility. Overall, we felt everything was very slick and professional whilst maintaining a relaxed, calm and happy atmosphere. A perfect day for us, and I would highly recommend this venue!

We were married at The Granary Estates in July 2024, and we cannot thank them enough for putting on our dream wedding. I knew that The Granary Estates was the one for us before we even visited it, but as soon as we arrived for our first visit, we were sold. The girls who work at The Granary Estates seemed to have a reputation amongst all of the suppliers that we spoke to as being incredibly helpful, professional and organised, and honestly, we cannot agree more. They really do make the whole experience a joy – which is exactly what you need when planning an event like this.

We really did feel like we were able to trust them with everything that we had in mind for the day and we were completely blown away when we arrived and saw our vision in real life.
On the day, we had a slight issue with our registrars not turning up, but Megan and her team were so kind and on it, making sure that we were both calm and ensuring everyone was comfortable, even on the hottest day of the year.

It has been less than a week since our wedding, and the wedding blues are hitting hard, but we cannot thank the Granary Estates enough for the help they gave us. If you are considering booking The Granary Estates for your event, do it! You will not be disappointed.

Absolutely stunning venue, with beautiful surrounding grounds. We had an intimate ceremony in the flint barn followed by drinks on the lawn and dinner and dancing in the granary barn. The most magical day.

All the staff were amazing, no request was too much trouble. The whole process with them was easy. Would 100% recommend.
