Event Spaces

Over 25 years ago, owners Jo and Andrew were married in the local village church and held their wedding reception at the farm. Using this personal experience they have created a wonderful event venue set in truly a beautiful and secluded location.

Nestled away at the end of a long drive, The Barn at Upcote is located in the heart of the Cotswold countryside, with excellent links to Cheltenham, Gloucester and Oxford.

Not just a wedding venue 

Built with weddings in mind, the barns are also a great venue for businesses looking to escape their normal working environment. Three separate areas provide the flexibility to host meetings, presentations and other corporate events, with the option to use all of the rooms for break-out sessions and lunch.  In addition to free coach and car parking on site, the venue is equipped with guest Wi-Fi throughout, a projector and a screen. 

It’s also a great location for team building or away days. As well as the main courtyard, the venue has a large grass field available for team games, clay pigeon shooting or archery. There is even glamping available on site for those feeling adventurous!  

Make your day unique 

Whatever the occasion, the Barn at Upcote prides themselves on their flexibility to help you make your day as special and unique as possible. It’s entirely up to you how you use the space; you could start an event with drinks and canapés served in the Sheep Shed, move to the Threshing Barn for a sit-down meal and then end your evening with entertainment in the Grain Store.  

Food is provided by a number of local catering businesses and can be tailored to suit your specific needs. Every event is bespoke, and no request is too big or small! The team are always happy to rise to a new challenge. 

Spaces available: 

Each barn is clustered around a secluded central courtyard, enabling guests to spill out into the fresh air.

Threshing Barn – this is the original Cotswold Stone Barn with its vaulted ceiling. It benefits from underfloor heating and can hold up to 100 for a formal dinner. 

Grain Store – this bright, modern, blank canvas barn seats up to 100 theatre-style. 

Sheep Shed – a reconstructed barn adjacent to the Grain Store. This is perfect for break-out sessions or for smaller more intimate meetings and events. 

Cart Lodge –wrap up warm and sit outside on even the wettest of days, sheltered by this restored open-fronted building. 

With so many great event spaces to choose from, the friendly, professional team at the Barn at Upcote are always happy to talk through the plans for your day and suggest how best to make the most of this inspiring, flexible event venue.
