Upton Barn & Walled Garden

A perfect place for a perfect day.

We had such an incredible day celebrating our wedding at Upton. The location is stunning, the garden and grounds are beautiful (whatever the Devon weather throws at you) and the lawn and lake make for a perfect back drop to photos. Each room in the venue works beautifully and has its own distinct character whilst linking up to make a really lovely, relaxed space to host the day in.

What really makes Upton Barn unique and truly special are the people. Claire, Natalie and the team were wonderful from the very start of the planning process. They listened to all our ideas and were super helpful. They could not have been more supportive, flexible and understanding when Covid restrictions came into place and they helped us navigate through the ever-changing government guidelines with such empathy.

Upton is such a special place, just being there makes your heart feel full. The team delivered us the perfect day, even if it was rather different from how we had imagined it might be. We could not recommend Upton enough to any prospective couples – it really is perfect!

A Perfect Corona Wedding!

We were due to get married at Upton Barn in June 2020 but because of the coronavirus pandemic we had to postpone to October 2020. Throughout the whole experience and the ever-changing guidance we found Upton Barn to be flexible and accommodating with us.

We decided to go ahead with the limited number of guests and despite all the rules and regulations Upton Barn made this day so intimate and special for us. After such a rubbish year it was so nice to come together and celebrate happiness (although at a distance).

The venue is absolutely stunning, as are the views – makes for some great photos!

We are so happy we went ahead with a corona wedding and even happier that we decided to have this at Upton Barn.

The perfect day at the perfect venue!

We knew the second we walked into Upton Barn that it was the venue for us! It is a beautiful and modern space which offers both indoor and outdoor options for a wedding.

From the outset, we were really well supported by the team at Upton to plan our day, and they provided thorough and helpful advice and guidance to what could seem like a daunting process.

Our wedding coordinator Kaliegh was the best, from our final meeting until the end of our big day, she made sure our big day was perfect – from setting up the venue with decorations, to coordinating timings and calming us both down before the I Do’s. Everyone really went the extra mile, and no question or change was too much. Everything was seamless.

It breaks my heart that my big day at Upton Barn is finished as it was the most magical day, I am so pleased that I got to start my marriage here with my loved ones. And the venue and staff gave my marriage the very best start.

If you are thinking of booking Upton Barn, please go for it! You will absolutely not regret it – it is the most amazing venue, with the most fabulous staff.

Beautiful venue and staff were amazing!

We cannot thank the Upton team enough for their help in organising our special day in such challenging and uncertain times – they were incredible. Our wedding was initially booked for April 2020 but we deferred it to December 2020 due to the pandemic.

Claire, Natalie and the Upton Team were incredible in reassuring us throughout the process and thinking of creative ideas to ensure we could go ahead with our wedding. They were always on hand to answer our questions and did everything possible to ensure guidelines were met without compromising our day. They thought of everything so we could relax knowing we were in good hands.

As our wedding was for only 15 of us, we took Natalie’s advice on how to utilise the venue to make the most of the space but also get that intimate feeling. Despite the wintry December weather, the venue was stunning and felt so cosy and special. I was worried it might feel empty with so few guests but that certainly wasn’t the case. Our family and friends even commented how special the day felt by having fewer people there.

The staff were so attentive on the day and everyone’s needs were perfectly catered for.  We are so so happy we decided to get married at Upton and would highly recommend to anyone considering the venue.

Thank you Team Upton, we love you!

The wedding of our dreams!

Myself and my now husband recently got married at Upton Barn and Walled Garden. We cannot even begin to put into words how perfect our day was. From the start of our booking journey to the running of our wedding day, the staff at Upton were sensational. Throughout the whole process, everything felt personal, and all our wants and needs were met. The venue is just stunning and was everything we were looking for when we booked it over 2 years ago. The wait and build-up led to a wedding day that was perfect and even surpassed our own expectations. Thank you so much to all of the staff at Upton Barn, we will be forever grateful for the memories you allowed us to make.

Best Day of Our Lives!

As soon as we went to look at Upton Barn we knew instantly that we were going to get married there, the venue is just breath taking. Every single space at Upton Barn is so beautiful that it’s difficult not to fall in love instantly. The staff that work there are some of the other reasons that make Upton Barn so incredible. They are so attentive, knowledgeable and professional. They truly make you feel like your wedding day is in the safest hands! I just can’t say enough positive things about how amazing our day was. I wish we could do it all over again! Just thank you so much to the most beautiful venue and the most incredible staff. A special thank you to our wedding coordinator, Sarah; you really made us feel so at ease and special. Everything was planned down to the last detail, and your enthusiasm for everything to do with the day matched our own, and it really felt like you cared about everything.

Most Amazing Day!

Upton Barn was the first venue we looked around and I knew that was where I was going to get married. The grounds and surrounding are breathtaking and it just got better as we went inside the walled garden.

The team were amazing from start to finish and Harriet made the day run so smoothly we had no stress at all. She was the best!! We hadn’t lived in the area for long so was unsure on all suppliers but Upton sent over their recommendations and they really were great!

Without it being finished I booked the paddock to get ready in and my expectations were exceeded when I got to see it. Such a beautiful area to and ready and unwind in before the big day, with views of miles around. More than enough room for all your suppliers and bridal party to be in without it feeling cramped.

All the guests had an amazing time from the little ones running round the grounds to the grand parents that were more than happy to sit in the comfy bar area.

We wish we could do the day over again because it really was the most incredible day!

Thank you SO much Upton Barn.

Our Perfect Day!

We recently got married at Upton Barn & Walled Garden and wow what a perfect day it was! The venue itself is truly stunning, rustic and beautiful. The fire pit was a huge hit in the evening! The lake and the fountain made for beautiful photos. The whole booking process went super smooth with Natalie being our events coordinator. She was always on hand if I had any questions or worries. She kept me calm throughout our wedding day, helped the men with their buttonholes, just generally being there to help anyone who needed it. We had so many guests come up and tell us how wonderful the venue is and how lovely all the staff were working that day. The tack room was an absolute saviour for my husband and myself. We could sneak away for a 5 minute breather, a quiet and calm place. I can’t recommend Upton enough! The whole Upton team are incredible.

Beautiful venue.

Upton Barn was just what we wanted for our wedding: a rustic venue that’s not too big and set in beautiful countryside with gorgeous views!

The paddock to get ready in made the morning, it was so stress free and had everything you need to enjoy the morning. The grounds at Upton won us over the first time we visited, the walled garden is stunning, definitely the highlight for us. Although we didn’t manage to get married outside due to a rain shower, the cider barn is just as gorgeous to get married in. We managed to do our confetti shot and photographs outside which made it for us as we so wanted to enjoy the grounds. The grounds make for such beautiful photos!

Upton staff were extremely organised and helpful throughout the whole process, we want to especially thank Kaliegh and Laura, they made us feel at ease and made the day run so smoothly. Upton Barn allowed us to have our tractor there and decorated the venue with our decorations even better than we envisioned. So many of our guests commented on what a gorgeous wedding venue it is. Our day couldn’t have gone any better, and that’s down to Upton and the team!

Best day ever! Thank you

There really isn’t any comparison to this stunning venue! When Mark and I got engaged two years ago, we looked up online venues around our area, and we narrowed it down to 4. Upton Barn was our favourite from the beginning, but it’s always good to check out your options. Checking out our options turned out to just be a waste of time! Nothing compared to the beauty of the venue and also the warm welcome of the staff that worked there. I didn’t end up having to ask any questions because they were answered for me during our tour. I looked around with my parents on a beautiful sunny day, and then when Mark was able to come with me, it rained the whole time, but I think it’s a good thing because you never know the weather. We loved it just much in the rain too. The inside has beautiful space for an indoor wedding, too, which we very nearly ended up having.

A lot of my email interaction was with Sarah, who was an absolute star! She answered so many of my questions and helped me when I needed it during the planning process. The day itself ran so smoothly that everybody commented on it. Kaleigh was our wedding ordinator for the main day and then swapped in the evening with two other lovely ladies! Becky was looking after Mark and making sure he knew where he was meant to be etc and Kaleigh looked after me. They were both just so lovely and attentive. Everyone knew exactly what was happening and when and where we were meant to be. I honestly couldn’t have hoped for better ladies to help us with our day!

Our whole experience with Upton Barn has been so wonderful that I honestly couldn’t recommend them enough. Thank you so much for making our day so incredibly wonderful. You always dream of wedding but it honest exceeded my dreams so thank you!

If you’re reading this and wondering if you should book Upton, you won’t be disappointed!

The Most Perfect Venue!

We booked this venue during lockdown so were only able to have a virtual tour and we already knew it was the one! The venue itself is incredible, and the staff are amazing! Throughout the whole planning process they were always on hand for any questions we had (even if they were stupid questions) and made everything we envisioned come to life. They have so much attention to detail during the planning process (there would of been so much we would have missed if they hadn’t brought it up).

On the day Kaliegh was AMAZING. She kept our day running smoothly and we could never thank her enough! We also booked the paddock for the morning of which I would highly recommend, such a beautiful space to get ready and it really does take the stress away with being at the location already.

All of our guests commented on how lovely Upton was and we can’t wait to return as a guest for friends future weddings.

Thankyou so much team Upton!

The whole team at Upton barn were fantastic from start to finish. From the moment we viewed Upton Barn we fell in love and it lived up to be an incredible venue for our wedding day.

A special Thanks to Sarah and Phil who on the day were amazing. We cannot thank you enough for how organised, professional and friendly you both were. We really felt that you looked after us and this was also noticed by our guests. We had so many positive comments about how well the day ran and how amazing the venue was.

Thank you so much.

Amazing from start to finish.

What a truly amazing venue. Such beautiful, calm and perfect wedding vibes.

We had the most magical day from start to finish. Thank you to all the staff for making our day so easy and memorable.

Married December 2024

Perfect day in every way!

Well where do we start! From the moment we stepped through the doors (or walled garden!) at Upton we fell in love. We knew straight away this was where we wanted for our special day. Then we met the people, who confirmed this even more! It really is an Upton feeling you get! Everything was perfect… despite the bumpy covid road (which Claire, Richard and the team were amazing throughout) we couldn’t have asked for a better day. I’m so glad we got to enjoy the new addition of the paddock room as well, that really added to our morning and meant being able to relax in such beautiful surroundings. It really is a beautiful venue and we can’t thank the team enough. We want to do it all over again!

The best!

We wanted a wedding venue where we would feel relaxed and cared for in a stylish, charming, cool, understated place, and Upton Barn delivered. It’s run by a team who really know how to make a beautiful day.

There are so many lovely spaces here. It was a joy to walk into the gorgeous walled garden after our church ceremony. The incredible window in the stable barn made a beautiful backdrop to our speeches (and a big shout-out to the horses for making a guest appearance). As the light disappeared and the sun set, the festoon lights and fire pit had their moment, and the garden came to life. The cider barn was the perfect size for our ceilidh, too.

Thank you, Kaliegh and team, for playing your part in making our perfect day.

Upton Barn & Walled Garden Smashed It! Nick and I decided on Upton Barn & Walled Gardens as we stepped through the front door for the first time and have not looked back since! It is the most naturally beautiful venue with a stunning outlook and as we knew our wedding could not be weather dependent (we actually had every weather on the day) we needed somewhere that would shine come rain or snow! The other essential to our big day was for a relaxed, friendly ambience as all we genuinely wanted was to have all our loved ones around us having the best time! Natalie, Phoebe and Rosie each took it in turns to put us at ease and coordinated our wedding in the run up and on the day – it went seamlessly, and you would not have known anyone was keeping track of times or schedules. Nothing was too big an ask and they have been very efficient throughout – we really could not have stumbled across a more welcoming, yet professional team and family that encompass Upton Barn & Walled Gardens. They made our day one we will remember for ever and many of our guests commented on this too!

Outstanding Service

Upton Barn is the most beautiful venue on its own, hardly any decorations are needed. We had Harriet as our wedding planner, and never have we met someone who goes above and beyond in their service, who is also so genuinely kind. Harriet made the planning so smooth and easy, and made the day run smoother than we could of hoped whilst also keeping the kids entertained! All of our guests loved the venue, and it is so perfect for this country as you have the option of the beauty gardens or the stunning barn! So pleased we married here! It is definitely worth the money, guaranteed a beautiful stress free wedding from start to finish.

Incredible!

We celebrated our wedding at Upton Barn and Walled Garden in September, and we couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Georgia and the team were incredible, ensuring the day ran smoothly and felt effortless. Their support and professionalism have been outstanding From our first visit to the pre-wedding meetings and even the post-wedding follow-ups.

The venue itself is breathtaking, but it’s the team that truly made the experience so special. Thank you for helping create memories we’ll treasure forever!

Cannot recommend highly enough.

We are so happy that we chose Upton Barn as our wedding venue this summer, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.

The venue itself has a beautiful modern-industrial design that we loved and it’s situated in the rolling hills of Devon with stunning views all around.

The team at Upton Barn were so friendly and helpful both in the planning stage leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day itself. One example was how they had two event coordinators on the day, making sure we were in the right place at the right time, and also liaising with all the suppliers/vendors on the day so we didn’t have to think about that at all. They were also flexible when our meal/speeches overran slightly, and they were able to adjust the upcoming schedule on the fly so we didn’t feel too rushed into the next thing.

At Upton Barn you are restricted to choosing between two catering companies that they work with, but this was not a problem at all. We had such a positive experience with Mulberry and highly recommend them. The menu was varied, and the food was absolutely delicious.

The two bars were great. They had a good selection of drinks at decent prices, and they were well-staffed throughout the day and evening.

If you’re considering choosing Upton Barn for your wedding, go for it. You won’t regret it!

Absolutely incredible.

Upton Barn is a beautiful stunning venue, we are so so glad we chose this for our wedding in November. Not only is the venue perfect the staff are just fantastic. We had to rearrange twice due to covid and Claire made a very stressful process so much easier. A special thanks to Harry and Kaliegh for helping us plan a brilliant day and making sure everything ran so smoothly on the day.

We couldn’t have chosen a better venue!
