About Cooling Castle Barn
A truly unique setting for your wedding ceremony and celebrations here at Cooling Castle Barn in Rochester. Offering a choice of three barns within our historic walled garden. All with the knowledge that you're our only wedding that day.
Cooling Castle Barn, which dates back to the 17th century, is in a tranquil village setting adjacent to Cooling Castle, located only 10 minutes from all major transport links and within easy reach of London.
Consisting of three barns surrounded by idyllic walled gardens, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere, it is the perfect Kent venue for Weddings. Each of the three barns has its own individual character, charm and purpose - which is perfectly complimented by our on site luxury accommodation.
At Cooling Castle Barn, we are renowned for ensuring that each and every wedding is special. From the moment you arrive at our awe-inspiring oak beamed barns, we want you to instinctively recognise that we understand what it takes to create the intimate environment to celebrate that special moment when two people are making a lifelong commitment to each other.
With only one wedding per day, we can ensure that the Bride and Groom receive our undivided attention and have a day that they and their loved ones will never forget.
We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and encourage you to personalise your day, whilst providing the ultimate support network to ensure no details get neglected.
Combine the romance of the occasion, the dignity of the civil ceremony, the stunning atmosphere of such a fabulous location, together with the welcoming attentiveness of our staff and you cannot fail to experience your perfect Kent wedding.
