FIRST IMPRESSIONS
Dating back more than 500 years, The Plough Inn began life as a small farm and coaching inn. The history of the Oak Barn meanwhile can be traced back as far as the 13th century and was moved to its current site from Wales. The Barn has been beautifully restored throughout the years to create an idyllic ambience, excellent catering and a great mix of space.

CEREMONIES TO CELEBRATIONS
Ceremonies take place in the Old Oak Barn with space for 85 loved ones. The original oak beams offer the perfect frame for such a special moment.

During your drinks reception, guests can enjoy drinks and canapés either in the wedding garden or purpose-built orangery. So, no matter the weather you’ll have a welcoming environment in which to make the most of the time spent with your nearest and dearest. The Barn is also home to receptions, so while you’re sipping on bubbly and chatting, the venue’s dedicated team will be busy transforming it ready for your wedding breakfast for 115 guests.

Evening capacity is also 115, but this can be increased by adding a marquee extension onto the side of the building.

A PLACE TO REST YOUR HEAD
The venue offers 17 quiet, contemporary bedrooms including double, twin and family rooms for you and your guests.

One in seven couples choose sleep over sex on their wedding night

As the UK's spring and summer wedding season begins, new research by Mattress Online suggests the traditional idea of a passion-filled wedding night doesn't always match reality, with one in six couples (15%) saying they did not have sex after their big day. To understand why, the bed experts also asked survey respondents what their reasoning was behind this. They also provided additional insight on the idea of the "wedding night" from Relationship Expert, Jenni Trent Hughes. The findings show that exhaustion was by far the most common factor, with more than two in five (44%) of couples saying they were simply too tired after the celebrations. As weddings often involve early starts, long days, emotional highs, and late nights, rest is a more realistic priority than romance once newlyweds are in bed.
