The Setting
An award-winning venue comprising a cluster of beautifully restored barns alongside a 17th-century luxury Farmhouse. Tythe is one of the most impressive wedding barns in the country, with the exclusive estate set on the working farm of the Deeley family in rural Oxfordshire. Elegantly rural and undeniably fun, Tythe creates unforgettable weddings.
Relaxed and informal, yet well-known for its incredible attention to detail, this charming venue brings together the beautifully restored Thatched Barn (dating back to 1370), adjoining Cowshed with its old terracotta roof, luxury dressing room (The Nook), the stunning interior-designed Manor Farmhouse offering seven double en-suite bedrooms and the cosy Shepherd’s Hut which sleeps an additional two.
Tythe can be hired exclusively across either one or two nights and offers everything on site: licensed for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies with the flexibility to adapt to both small or larger wedding parties, dedicated rooms for the groom and the bride to get ready in and accommodation for 16 guests – including tea and cake and a farmhouse supper for residents as well as breakfast on both mornings. Tythe is known for going above and beyond; the comprehensive list of what they include within their venue hire is a testament to this. From the Champagne Bar, hot tub and tennis court at The Farmhouse to the outdoor wood-burners, a Land Rover offering pre-ceremony drinks and an abundance of fairy lights scattered throughout both the indoors and outdoors, this is a venue that boasts more than 25 years of experience planning and hosting weddings.
Quintessentially English and run by a devoted team who are proud owners of multiple awards for their customer service, Tythe has mastered the art of planning weddings whilst lovingly guiding couples through the process. A delightfully English setting that is simple, honest and maintains an understated elegance – be part of their story.
The Vibe
As one of the most established barn venues in the country, Tythe offers a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the industry. Once there, time slows down, you’re on Tythe time, and there’s a certain magic around every corner. You notice the commitment to detail, the passion that has touched every element, and the welcoming smiles of a team that loves what they do. You immediately feel at home and part of the family.
The long, sweeping drive draws you in and offers a hint at what lies ahead. Behind the enormous barn doors, you’ll find rustic oak beams draped in fairy lights, a pizza oven sitting deep within Cotswold stone walls, festoon lights perched beneath the old thatch, the gentle trickle of the water trough, the inviting crackle of the outdoor wood burner, the flock of sheep in the field and the cows peering over the fence – they’re all waiting to be part of your story.
At Tythe, it’s all about the experience. They believe your wedding deserves more than just one day, and at Tythe, they give you and your guests the complete run of the estate, that’s the whole shebang across either one or two nights! Their stylish farmhouse boasts impressive interiors whilst offering an informal and cosy backdrop for your stay, meaning guests will feel at home from the minute they enter through its delightful cobblestone porch.
