Welcome to Farbridge

Nestled in the rolling downlands of the South Downs National Park, a quiet oasis of natural beauty. From summer warmth to winter cosiness, inside meets outside with bright, flowing interiors and pleasing vistas.

If these walls could talk, they would tell of family and friends coming together. Of vows exchanged, toasts made, food savoured. And every tale would be different. And every memory a new one. Because Farbridge is yours alone for your day. With a team working to make every moment special.

  • From summer warmth to autumn colour to winter cosiness, inside meets outside with bright, flowing interiors and beautiful vistas.
  • A secret garden, a sun-lit courtyard, a smaller barn for the ceremony and dancing, a larger barn for drinks and sit-down meal: you choose how your day unfolds.
Access
  • From a vintage car to double decker bus, our tarmac drive suits most vehicles.
    Ample parking, lit at night.
  • Taxis can be booked in advance. Coaches are available too.
  • Disabled access and facilities.
  • Licensed to play the last song and close the bar at 11.30pm, with all guests off site by midnight.
Inside the barn
  • The bright interior can take any design, or is beautiful just as it is.

  • Relax knowing that your manager is on top of every detail of your special day, making sure your plans run smoothly, all the way through to its close.
In the grounds
  • Our borders, with their soft colours and gorgeous textures, include standing space for your photographer to get that perfect shot.
  • The secret garden is a lovely setting for more intimate photos or family shots.
  • The courtyard is ideal for group photos on the lawn, where you can then host drinks or play games.
  • Just across the River Lavant you’re welcome to walk in the fields, which change with the seasons.
  • And along the track you’ll find the remains of an old dairy, which can also serve as a dramatic setting for photos.
Dancing
  • The Meadow Barn has a music license through to 11.30pm.
  • After the ceremony, it can be cleared and transformed into a dance floor, with no need to bother you or your guests.
  • Your band or DJ are then free to set up for the evening, away from the meal and speeches.
