TRADITIONAL & ELEGANT
Nestling in a picturesque fold in the Chiltern Hills on the Bucks and Oxon border, Notley Tythe Barn is an ancestral part of the rural landscape. In 1991 owners Nick and Denise Reynolds lovingly restored the historic 12th Century barn. Now its beam rafted roof, its magnificent whitewashed hall and gallery echo not to the noise of harvest toil but to the sounds of wedding celebrations. Elegant and unique, it's the perfect setting for your wedding or special event.
THE COMPLETE HOSTING SERVICE
The Reynolds family have been farming Notley for over 350 years. Which is why, when they transformed the barn into a unique wedding venue, Nick and Denise wanted to make sure that it shared the same family-run feel as the rest of the farm. "The idea wasn't simply to create a place which people could book for a reception and then end up arranging everything themselves. We decided we should provide a complete hosting service too." Every detail is meticulously planned in advance, from the ceremony to the seating, the music and the food and drinks. Since 1991 they have hosted well over 2000 weddings and take genuine pleasure in arranging successful events. They would be delighted to extend a warm welcome to you.
BE OUR GUEST!
The barn can seat 140 guests, while a permanent Granary Bar can accommodate another 60. The doors of the barn open directly on to a garden, which reaches out towards the Chiltern Hills in the distance and has been redesigned by Steven Hendry, a Chelsea Gold Medal winning landscape architect. For the adults there is a cocktail and canapé lawn, while for the children there is a recreational lawn where they can run and play in complete safety. In addition a larger marquee can be placed on the lawn to accommodate up to 250 guests.
