About Upton Barn & Walled Garden

Offering captivating views over the beautiful Devon countryside and a collection of four stunning spaces, Upton Barn & Walled Garden is the ultimate country wedding venue. You cannot help but relax as you arrive to a warm welcome and signature Upton hospitality. Everyone is made to feel at home and receives our five-star service and attention. We hold a license for ceremonies, and offer great wedding breakfast menu's. Available for exclusive hire and accommodating up to 156 guests.

Upton offers you the freedom and flexibility to design a wedding to suit your own distinct style and personality.

The Walled Garden is an idyllic spot for wedding ceremonies with its fragrant flower borders, tinkling water fountain and hand crafted oak arbour. The Cider Barn is an equally stunning backdrop for ceremonies with its polished concrete floor, soaring oak trusses and floor to ceiling window which floods the space in natural light. The Stable Barn offers a stylish setting for your wedding breakfast with its warm timber interior, elegant lighting and fully stocked bar. The Tack Room is an intimate space for you to take a moment, relax and refresh in luxurious comfort. Guests can mingle in the Press Bar whilst they enjoy a drink from our new bar menu, settle down in the comfortable seating around the wood burning stove, play a garden game or explore the beautiful surrounding landscaped grounds. Then as evening falls, take your first dance beneath the twinkling fairy lights in The Cider Barn to your favourite DJ or band; roast a marshmallow with friends and family around the fire pits and savour the end to a perfect day.

The Paddock is the perfect place to enjoy a glass of fizz with your wedding party. This beautiful additional space can be hired on your wedding morning. The light-filled spa-like building provides showers with fluffy towels, glamorous stations which are just perfect for hair and make-up, and comfortable sofas to relax and enjoy the build-up to your special day. The views of the countryside from the Paddock are utterly dreamy and you’ll feel like you are in your own little retreat with your nearest and dearest. An essential extra to add to your wedding day!

Our Sustainability Commitments

Sustainability is important to our team and we have taken steps to be kinder and appreciate the world we live in. Along with biomass heating and hot water, we use a bore hole for water supply, air source water and heating for The Paddock and The Stalls, our gorgeous new accommodation pods, they have also been created using repurposed shipping containers – stylish yet sustainable, a winner in our eyes! Throughout our various restoration projects here at Upton Barn, we have been very careful to design the buildings in keeping with the original feel of the farm. We’ve used our own oak to build the outdoor ceremony arbour and our own stone from the quarry to restore the barn, just to name a couple! As well as using local craftspeople, our local blacksmith created our striking light installations, chandeliers and features around the venue like our beautiful logo in the Stable Barn. Here in the South West, we are fortunate enough to have a plethora of talented suppliers and creatives in the area. We wholeheartedly support our local suppliers and are very passionate about working with those who align with the Upton ethos – whether that’s in building and renovation, or through to wedding vendors. Our handpicked collection of caterers, Pickle Shack and Mulberry Catering Co, are family-run businesses that are advocates of using local independent suppliers, and seasonal produce in their menus, both working hard to ensure minimal food wastage. Our drive to continue to become more sustainable continues as we invested in solar technology at Upton in 2023.
