Shustoke Barn Testimonials


A huge thank you to everyone involved, you really helped to make our day so special. 
We are so grateful for all you did not just on the day but with the lead up as well. You put us so at ease and we couldn't have been happier. 
A massive thank you from us and our guests who have all said how amazing you all were and how beautiful the venue is. 

— Sam & Graeme, April 2024

I just wanted to say how amazing you all are. Matty and I absolutely loved our day massively due to all of you.
The venue firstly looked incredible, all the effort you went into to make it special for us is hugely appreciated. And secondly throughout the day so many guests came up to me, Matty or my parents and praised the staff, saying how friendly all of you were. This was so lovely to hear, they all felt so welcome. And thirdly the food. I cannot tell you how many guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever had.
Please give the chef a massive thank you and tell him how much we appreciate his effort too. 
So again a massive thank you to everyone from the bottom of my heart. 

— Matty & Kate, April 2024

Chris and I just wanted to send a massive thank you to you all for an incredible wedding day. The running of the day went so so smoothly. Everyone has been complimenting you all on how amazing the day ran, the transitions were seamless, the running of the food, just everything. You were so kind to us, made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. The food was amazing! Honestly just everything from start to finish, we can’t fault a thing!

— Chris & Amy, April 2024

Great venue and would recommend to anyone wanting to get married. Great hospitality as well.

— Wedding guest, April 2024

Fantastic venue, great staff, as a wedding guest we could not fault the day. I would definitely recommend.

— Wedding guest, April 2024

Thank you so much for providing us with such an incredible wedding day. We had the most amazing day and just want to say a huge thank you to all of the staff for being so wonderful and making everything run so smoothly!

— Sarah & Marc, April 2024

We can't rate the team at Shustoke Barn highly enough, resulting in us having the perfect wedding day at this gorgeous venue. The day and evening managers both couldn't do enough to help and so many guests commented on how incredible the food was. We would also like to say a massive thank you to Becci and Ella who were both incredibly warm, welcoming and couldn't do enough to help us! It really was the perfect day so thank you to the entire team for ensuring everything ran smoothly. 

— Kate & James, March 2024

I just wanted to say a massive thank you to the team for all their hard work on our magical day. It really was incredible, and it was all down to them. Thank you again for just being amazing and making our day perfect.

— Laura & Luke, February 2024

What an absolute stunning venue. We got married 29th December 2023 and it was all we could ever have dreamed of. The staff were lovely and accommodating. They made sure everything ran smoothly. The food was delicious and everyone commented on how lovely the atmosphere and decor was there. Nothing was too much trouble at all! I would recommend this venue to everyone because it truly is magical there. Thank you for making our day so special.

— Sophie & Matthew, December 2023

A fantastic place to get married. The staff are friendly and helpful. Great location for your wedding photographs.

— Priory Wedding Photographer, December 2023

Last Saturday my daughter Elena Maybury got married at your beautiful venue. Everybody who attended could not praise the venue, food, organisation and service enough, especially the number of Americans who were in the majority of guests. This included Ashley’s relations who were very impressed.
A special thanks must go to Becci who was responsible for the day and who went above and beyond to make sure the day went like clockwork. What an excellent employee you have in Becci. Ella on the evening shift was also very helpful and could not do enough to help in every area.
Thank you again for helping to make my daughter’s and her bride’s a very special day.

— Father of the Bride, December 2023

We don't even know where to start in thanking you for making our special day so perfect; everything from all the help and support leading up to the big day and then making the day itself so magical. We were so impressed with all the little touches, and will forever be grateful. All the team were so helpful and accommodating, and a real credit to the venue. All the guests were in awe with how beautiful the venue was, and could not speak more highly about the food. 

— Amanda & Robin, December 2023

Attended a wedding here yesterday and it's a wonderful venue. The food was amazing. Most importantly, the staff were great. Very polite, attentive, and friendly.

— Wedding Guest, December 2023

The place was stunning, like something out of a fairy tale. The wedding coordinator was super helpful. We had to push our wedding date back a few times due to Covid and family circumstances and the venue was extremely professional and worked with us to make our day happen. Everything fell into place like magic. It was the most incredible day ever and everything I dreamed of.

— Vicky & Jack, December 2023

At other weddings I've attended the approach to additional needs has been very poor. I wanted to thank the staff at Shustoke Barn for how inclusive of everyone on shift that day. They managed to accommodate three wheelchairs, people with sticks/crutches, and those (least I saw) having seizures.
One thing I particularly wanted to praise the staff about was the seizures. Within a minute of seeing someone having a seizure, they would quietly come to the table and ask if this was typical for said guest or if the needed an ambulance. I personally felt this is a great way of tailoring the reception to the needs of a specific need. Please do say thank you on my behalf.
And the last thing I wanted to celebrate on behalf of your staff who were catering on a set menu.  As someone who requires liquid or soft, being provided a bowl if tomato soup then ice cream for pudding. That meant a lot.

— Wedding Guest, December 2023

We'd like to send a massive thank you to Emma, Ella and Meghan for all their help on the day and to the entire Shustoke Team for everything. The day was absolutely perfect, and you all made the journey so straightforward right from the start. Ella was absolutely fantastic on the day, she was so personable and reassuring and we never felt rushed between seeing our loved ones or moving onto the next event.

— Bertie & Cecily, November 2023

We had the best day on 28th October 2023 and all the staff at Shustoke were amazing. We've had so many complements from our guests on what a great venue Shustoke Barn is, how brilliant the staff were and particularly how good the food was! 
Thank you for all your help along the way and for helping make our wedding day so special.

— Katie & Nathan, October 2023

We had the perfect wedding day at Shustoke Barn! Everything was perfect and the planning process so stress free and enjoyable. The team are fantastic!

— Harriet & Anthony, October 2023

We had our wedding at Shustoke Barn on 29th October. The venue looked incredible and the staff had literally brought our vision to life. They went above and beyond to give us the best day of our lives, it was everything we dreamed of and more. The food, service and calming presence of the staff was just amazing. Thank you so so much. You are all so amazing at what you do. Thank you for giving us memories we will cherish the rest of our lives.

— Ash & Pete, October 2023

We had the most amazing day at Shustoke Barn, the staff were amazing, there isn’t a thing we could fault. The food was incredible and plentiful. All our guests said it was the best and most magical venue they have ever been to. It will live in our memories forever thank you so much.

— Joanne & Allen, October 2023

We first came to look at the venue the first weekend in January, after getting engaged over Christmas. 
It was the first venue we had seen and as we both walked around the venue, we just looked at each other - we knew straight away this was our wedding venue.
We were so right! Right from the beginning the whole team, no matter who you speak to at Shustoke was so helpful, friendly and accommodating. They made you feel like you were the only couple getting married there and it was as special to them as it was for us. Amazing.
The online portal that is used for all messages, documents and payments was so easy to use and made everything effortless. 
Being an Event Manager myself my bar was high, but these lot absolutely smashed it! 
Then coming to the actual wedding day. The team could not do enough. My now father-in-law spilt his trousers as soon as he got to the venue - Shustoke being the venue they are, got him to take them off and then hand-sowed them for him there and then. What other venue do you know would do that!!!
Everything about the day was perfect, we fell in love with Shustoke in the beginning but seeing it on our wedding day blew our minds! 
The food was absolutely beautiful and we had so many comments on how delicious the food was and how nice the staff were. 
I also think that everyone came up to me to say that this was one of the nicest venues they have ever seen.
So basically, both Luke and I just want to thank you (and we can't thank you enough) for making our wedding day the best day of our lives.
I will shout about Shustoke Barn forever and let anyone I know who is getting married to go and see it!! 

— Rachael & Luke, October 2023

I couldn't recommend Shustoke Barn highly enough. They pretty much only do weddings, day in, day out and it really shows. The staff know exactly what they are doing and the running of everything is seamless. They do virtually everything for you so it takes the stress out of the whole occasion. I think the only question I got asked from the staff on the day was who I wanted to introduce us.
The venue is beautiful, the food is brilliant and the staff are fantastic. The barn also has the added benefit of really not needing much in terms of decoration. It's not the biggest of venues but I think this actually provides a better wedding. Our dancefloor was packed all night and everyone was mingling. You didn't have groups of people in lots of different rooms like you sometimes get during the evening of some weddings.

— Michael & Lilly, October 2023

A fantastic place to have a wedding and reception. Can't rate it highly enough.
Building and surroundings beautiful.
Staff excellent.

— Wedding Guest, September 2023

We had a fantastic day, it was everything we dreamed of and more and that’s massively thanks to you guys and the team! Huge thank you to Ella and Jack, they did a brilliant job and are a credit to the Shustoke team - can’t fault anything and we’ve received so many compliments on the venue and food!

— Lauren & Jay, September 2023

Thank you SO much for giving us the most incredible wedding day. We are so grateful to all of the amazing team who made everything go so smoothly and made us feel so well looked after. Extra massive thank you to Megan for absolutely saving the day when our taxi didn’t arrive and taking us to our hotel. We really can’t thank you enough.

— Tom & Rosie, August 2023

Me and my wife had our wedding here a few weeks ago. It was worth every penny.
A stunning venue in a beautiful location with the kindest of staff and excellent food.
So many of our guests commented that it was the best wedding food they had ever tasted.
The whole day ran so smoothly due to the experience of the staff. Specifically Becci our day manager was excellent.
I can not recommend this venue highly enough as the place to have your wedding.

— Samuel & Mollie, August 2023

I recently played for a wedding ceremony & drinks reception at Shustoke Barn. It's a stunning 18th century red-brick barn situated around a private courtyard. Becki and the rest of the staff there were incredibly accommodating and professional, ensuring that everything ran seamlessly. Their attention to detail and commitment to creating a memorable experience for both guests and performers truly sets them apart. I looking to playing there again soon!

— James Sax, August 2023

I just wanted to say thank you on behalf of myself and Dannielle for such a lovely wedding day.  
The entire process has been exceptionally easy and user friendly. Even down to this Cordero site allowing us to upload any documents and ask any questions / give updates.
The venue was absolutely gorgeous and literally every guest we had commented on how picturesque and wonderful it is. I don't think my Mom has quite gotten over how amazing everything looked. As for the day itself, Emma and Ella couldn't do enough to make our day perfect. They were absolutely exceptional and a real credit to Shustoke Barn. They made us feel like nothing was too much trouble and kept us updated with everything throughout the day and were so approachable, friendly and always smiling. The rest of the staff were fantastic, really attentive and helpful, and the food lived up to everyone’s expectations. Gorgeous!
Thank you for all your help throughout on the run-up to the wedding and I can't thank you enough for making our day run so smoothly and perfectly.

— Danielle & Stephen, July 2023

So I’ll start this review with a quote from my dad on the night “best wedding he has ever been to, amazing venue”!! This venue is not only stunning but the organisation by staff is second to none. The food was out of this world, decor stunning and staff polite, happy to help and a great support throughout the planning and the day itself. I would recommend anyone to choose this venue. It isn’t the cheapest but you get what you pay for with this one… out of this world and I couldn’t have been any happier. Thank you Shustoke Barn.

— Tarna & Andrew, July 2023


We recently got married at Shustoke Barn and cannot recommend this venue enough. This was the only venue we viewed and knew as soon as we arrived that this was where we wanted to celebrate our wedding. We had a lot of rain on the day, but that didn’t matter because the inside of the venue is beautiful with so much character and incredible attention to detail. The courtyard is lovely and there is a long drive surrounded by fields where we were able to have photos.
The staff are amazing and have been so good at keeping in touch with us and answering any questions we have. A special thank you to Becci and Matt and the rest of the team that worked to make our day so special. You talked us through each step of the day and ensured things went to plan. We didn’t have to think of a thing as everything was taken care of and we could enjoy the day with our guests.
The food was delicious and we have had many guests comment that it is the best food they’ve had at a wedding. We loved that the food was served to the table on big serving platters so guests could take what they wanted.
Thank you for making the day so easy and wonderful for us.

— Isobel & Daniel, July 2023

We just wanted to say thank the biggest thank you ever to Shustoke for our wedding day, particularly to Becci and Megan! Our day was perfect and we wish we could do it all over again. The venue was beautiful and the staff were amazing. Everyone has said how incredible the food was. We couldn’t fault a thing! Thank you SO much!

— Catherine & Matthew, July 2023

Just a quick one to say a HUGE thank you to all of you who made our special day come true.
You are all so amazing - everything was brilliant and 1000000 times better than we could have ever imagined. Becci and Lee were so wonderful and everything ran like clockwork. The set up of the decorations and all of our extra requests were granted and we are so so grateful. 
The serving staff, chefs, bar staff and managers are an absolute CREDIT to your venue. Without them this would have never worked out to be the most memorable day.
Thank you so so so so much!

— Holly & James, July 2023

The team at Shustoke were so amazing and the venue is just lovely. Nothing was too much trouble. The communication was great and our guests have been raving about how great the food was! Thank you so much.

— Hannah & Jonathan, July 2023

My wife and I are so incredibly grateful to the Shustoke Barn team for making our wedding day so unforgettably beautiful. They delivered everything they promised and a lot more. Venue, service, food, before and after care were all 200%. Because a lot of our guests were coming from abroad this was doubly nice as it has left them with an amazing experience of a U.K. wedding. We can't thank you enough for helping to make our day so beautifully unforgettable. We recommend without hesitation! Thank you once again Becci, Emma, Kathryn and all the team!

— Jeremy & Ines, June 2023

Just wanted to thank everyone of the team for making our day run so smoothly! I know i wasn’t exactly on time and it was a busy one so thank you so much for helping us out along the way.
Everyone we’ve spoke to over the last few weeks have commented on how stunning the venue was, and that it was the best food they ever had at a wedding!
We’re so glad we chose to get married here and will cherish the memories forever!

— Casey & Karla, June 2023

Our day ran smoothly and the experience of the staff really showed. The food was excellent and the building itself is stunning. They reply promptly to enquiries and were there to guide us when required.

— Kate & Alexander, June 2023

This place is so beautiful and peaceful, the staff went above and beyond. I would highly recommend here and am so grateful they helped make my daughter’s wedding special, thank you.

— Mother of the Bride, June 2023

Genuinely flawless venue experience. Couldn't recommend more. Extremely transparent, professional and helpful. You will not be disappointed in any aspect of the Barns character, drink, food, atmosphere or fantastic team. Couldn't recommend more - a wonderful wedding experience.

— Oliver & Brittany, June 2023

We recently celebrated our wedding at Shustoke Barn and we could not have asked for a better venue. We had looked at four other venues before Shustoke but we fell in love with here the moment we viewed it. They couldn’t have done more for us! Their booking system is all online and so is their communication system. It’s so easy to get in touch with them and no question or query was ever a hassle for them and they replied very quickly. I stayed at a hotel nearby for the morning of the wedding and as a bit of a control freak, I worried that I wasn’t able to be there on the morning to help set things up. I shouldn’t have worried because they followed every instruction to the finest detail and we were blown away at how perfectly they made our vision come to life. All of our guests said how beautiful the venue was and how attentive the staff were throughout the day. The food was also unbelievable! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding day and that is with thanks to the amazing team at Shustoke. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you so much to all of you.

— Samantha & Jack, May 2023

Thanks to Shustoke we had the best wedding. As soon as we drove into the grounds we knew this is where we wanted to get married.
Everyone who worked there was so friendly. From us just looking around, to booking, to then having meetings and suggesting the feast night (which is amazing by the way..!! Well worth the money)
But honestly all of our guests that travelled from London and Kent and close by absolutely loved the venue and staff.
Everyone was amazing on the day honestly all smiles and Lisa made me laugh when I was hyperventilating like a weirdo before I walked in. Sending the seven bridesmaids in how you did was on point so most of the song was played which I really wanted.
The food was amazing and everyone loved it!
The night manager was awesome as well, he was always super friendly.
I have and will definitely carry on recommending you all.
Thank you again so so much for the fantastic experience and just making sure we had the wedding we always dreamed of.
Also good to add they are very LGBT+ friendly which was obviously a bonus for us.

— Sharrie & Maz, May 2023

What a beautiful setting.
Staff were brilliant, so well organised, great attention to detail. Great use of the inner courtyard throughout the day, then fie pits lit for the evening. The food from canapés after the wedding ceremony to the wedding meal, then the evening roast pork baps was delicious.
Everything was just perfect.

— Amanda, wedding guest, May 2023

It was absolutely incredible and has been the topic
of our conversations for a long time. All our friends commented on how amazing the day was, as well as how smooth it ran. As we mentioned to Kasey, previous weddings we had attended had a few kinks. Ours was flawless. Emma who ran our day was incredible and a real calming influence on us both. I think the greatest compliment we can pay is that we actually didn’t see much of you all! This we believe is down to a effortless system on which everyone commented also.
Thank you so much for providing us with the happiest day of our lives 

— Aidan & Laura, April 2023

I recently got married at Shustoke Barn, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! The venue is stunning, with beautiful countryside surroundings and charming rustic decor. We had a winter wedding, and the barn was just perfect - it suited candles wonderfully, creating such a cozy and romantic atmosphere.
The team at Shustoke Barn are always looking for ways to improve their offerings, and we were lucky enough to benefit from the new tables which fitted perfectly with our theme. Even after booking, we were kept informed of anything new right up to the wedding so we could make the most of their constant improvements.
Emma and Megan ran the day/night so smoothly, and Emma even went above and beyond to save the day by performing surgery in the form of a face transplant on our Colin the caterpillar cake after some hiccups! The communication and planning ahead of the event were excellent, which meant we could relax and enjoy the day stress-free. And the food - oh my goodness, it was incredible! It was easily one of the best feasts we've ever had.
The team at Shustoke Barn were always one step ahead, and their experience as a venue shone through on the day. Thank you for making our wedding day such a wonderful and unforgettable experience.
I highly recommend Shustoke Barn as a wedding venue - it truly is a magical place! Thank you for making our wedding day so perfect.

— Jasmine & James, March 2023

We would just like to thank you so much, we had a perfect day and all the staff that we have dealt with either yesterday or since we made the booking have been amazing, we couldn’t have asked for anything more.

The venue was beautiful and we wish we could do it all again.

— Jemma & Rob, March 2023

A massive thank you to everyone, especially Becci who worked so hard on the day to make everything so wonderful. It was such a magical day and in our eyes, it was absolutely perfect. We really felt looked after by the team and we wanted to convey our gratitude and love.

Many of our guests also commented on how beautiful the venue was, how divine the food tasted and how friendly the staff were.

We are SO glad we went with Shustoke. The day was magical and this couldn’t have been achieved without all the hard work behind the scenes.

— Steph & Joe, February 2023

From the moment that James and I visited Shustoke Barn, we fell in love with it. Absolutely stunning venue with gorgeous character. I am sure it is as beautiful in the summer, but as our winter wedding venue, it was beautiful. The Christmas tree up, the twinkly lights in the brickwork walls, the cosy underfloor heating.

The team were very responsive with any questions we had throughout. Kasey did an amazing job with the planning and budgeting.

The food on the day was absolutely delicious and so plentiful. We have had so many comments from our guests saying how wonderful the food was. One guest who is vegan said she has unfortunately never enjoyed her meal at a wedding but that her dish was so delicious. Brilliant at catering for allergies also.

Everything went like clockwork and that’s because you get a wedding coordinator on the day. I hadn’t realised this before the day. I can honestly say I have never had such incredible service as that given by Becci on the day. She was there the minute I arrived at the venue to guide me. She made sure my dress train was right before I walked down the aisle, she helped our children with the timing of when they were walking in before me.

It’s a bit clumsy walking around in a wedding dress with a big train and throughout the day I kept leaving my bag and my bridal jacket upstairs/all over the place. Becci seemed to just appear every time I needed them for photos etc. Nothing was too much trouble. She even helped us reload our car the next morning with all the wedding paraphernalia, with a big smile and a hug. She took our day from great to epic.

Thank you to the whole team at Shustoke. We genuinely couldn’t have had a more perfect wedding.

— Kate and James, December 2022

Our wedding was more amazing than we could ever have imagined. Becci and Lee are a huge credit to your team – they both worked so hard and everything was seamless. The little details from them both were outstanding.

— Andrea and Martin, November 2022

I just wanted to send a message to say thank you so much for hosting our wedding day. I had read the rave reviews on hitched and so my expectations were already high but Shustoke and all of the staff exceeded them by a mile!

From the very first time we made contact with the barn all the way to the end of our wedding we couldn't find a single fault or thing we would want to change. Every single person we have spoken to or interacted with has shown care and an impressive attention to detail. 

The food was incredible and we would like to say a big thank you to the kitchen team. We have made many, many complements about the beef!

— Sophie & Le-Roy, September 2022

My wedding day was beyond my wildest dreams.

Everyone said how much they loved the venue and the food and drink just flowed, many thanks to the fantastic staff who with with us both day and night.

A genuine and heartfelt thank you for everything 

— Shelly & Gavin, September 2022

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to the whole team for making our day so incredible! Literally every single team member was amazing. Everyone had such an amazing day. The venue, the food, drinks - literally everything was AMAZING!

— Andrea & Russell, September 2022

We had the best day and your team around us were superb. There have been so many compliments on the venue and the food and it seems nothing was too much for the team.

The day ran so smoothly and the set up of the venue was absolutely beautiful.

— Lucy and James August 2022

The compliments we have had from all of our guests have blown us away. The food was amazing, the service from the team and Becci on the day meant we could totally enjoy every moment.

— Shaun & Nicky, July 2022

We had the most perfect day from start to finish with Shustoke, so many happy, friendly smiling staff who were so helpful all day long! We appreciate all the hard work involved on our day, thank you so much.

— Shannon & Sam, April 2022

The venue itself is absolutely stunning, both during the day and at night. We opted to have their indoor and outdoor decorations package, which made the venue even more breathtaking. The food is some of the best food we have ever eaten! All of our guests loved the canapés, main meal and evening food. We had a few dietary requirements and the venue were so accommodating - the vegetarian and vegan options are fantastic!

No matter what our query was, Shustoke responded promptly with kindness and expert advice. Special mention to Kasey (who coordinated our planning meeting), Becci (our day coordinator), Lee (our evening coordinator) and all of the bar/waiting staff. All of them were fabulous and made the day run seamlessly.

— Steff & Callum, February 2022

Thank you for the most perfect day. We literally couldn’t think of anything more we could have asked or wished for from a venue and staff team. From the time we booked, throughout all the planning and set up and during the actual day everything was amazing. We are completely blown away by how incredible you all were and so many guests have commented on how stunning the barns are and how fantastic everything was. 

We will forever be grateful for making our wedding day so perfect  - Thank you

— Laura & Chris, December 2021

The BIGGEST thank you to everyone at Shustoke, I'm sure you get this all the time, but honestly everything was absolutely phenomenal. We could not be any happier with every single person that worked our wedding and in the lead up to the big day, You guys absolutely smashed it and we are eternally grateful! Our guests had an incredible time with many saying it was the best wedding they had ever been too. Myself and Jamie honestly had the most spectacular day.

— Emma & Jamie, December 2021

Thank you so much to everyone who made our day so special. We couldn’t of asked for a better day, especially with the snow. The whole day, the venue, everything was amazing and made our dream come true!

— Alex & Brendan - November 2021

Kasey, you've been there every step of the way and have been a superstar. Becky, we can't thank you enough for all of your support and help during the day - so many friends and family commented on how amazing you were. And Des, you kept the evening full of drinks and food and looked after everyone so well.

Please pass on a special thanks to the chef and kitchen team. Numerous guests have said it was the best wedding food they've ever had. The beef was cooked to perfection and it made the day so special

Massive thanks to Ellis in particular, as she was wonderful, but to the whole team in the run up to and during the day.

Everyone has said to us what a stunning venue and place.

— Hayley & Matt, November 2019

When searching for our wedding venue, we came across Shustoke first and fell in love with the barns instantly over the internet. Immediately, we booked an appointment to view the barns so that we could book a wedding date. We 100% recommend this place for future wedding couples wishing for a splendid rustic venue with lots of character, as well as, a very friendly, professional, caring team of staff who participated in all aspects of our wedding planning.

We were fortunate enough to have Emma as our day coordinator and Des as our night coordinator on the day of our wedding, both were fantastic and helped with the smooth proceedings of our wedding day. We loved our day so much, we would love to re-live it again.

Our wedding guests have given so many positive compliments about the barns since our wedding, some of which would like to get married here themselves. So hopefully we will return as wedding guests soon! The food was so delicious and the chefs were very accommodating for our guests regarding dietary requirements. Definitely deserves 5*, we would give more stars if it was an option. Great value for money too. Thank you so much Shustoke Team.

— Katie & Michael, November 2019

We had the best day ever! Thank you to all your staff for making our day so special, it was magical, the gestures and kindness you have shown me and my family will stay with us forever, we are so so grateful, all our guests were amazed by the venue and everyone commented on how beautiful it was. The day and night managers were both exceptional and made sure the everything ran brilliantly, we cannot thank you enough. 

— Gemma & Gareth, November 2019

Shustoke was the first and only venue we looked at. We completely fell in love the barn, the courtyard and the surrounding scenery.

The booking process was easy and we loved that you didn't have to have the traditional 3 course wedding breakfast, we loved the fact it was all help yourself, we went for the pate, mixed grill and chocolate fondant. Every course was complimented highly by all of our guests, we had two vegans attend our wedding and they praised their meal highly too.

I'd like to give Ellis and Tom a special mention, both were fantastic and always made sure me, my husband and guests either had a drink or some food in their hands. Every question or request I asked, it was done within minutes of me asking.

I cannot count how many people said how beautiful the venue was and how good the food was.

Thank you so much to all the staff at Shustoke our wedding was perfect and you guys played a massive part in that.

— Christina & Adam, October 2019

We currently live in America so had to do all of our wedding planning internationally. The Shustoke team made the international preparation, planning and our wedding day so stress free, fun and easy. Everything went to plan, the food is the best food we have ever tasted (our guests thought so too) and the staff are so kind and sincere despite weddings happening here every day of the year. We can't thank Shustoke enough.

— Fay & Steven, September 2019

We couldn't have been happier with our choice of venue. It's such a beautiful place, the staff are so helpful and they just make sure everything is as you want it. The communication system is great and all questions were answered super quickly. The food is as nice as we've heard, too! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

— Kath & Daniel, August 2019

We both had the most fantastic day and wish we could do it all over again! The venue, food and staff made it amazing and run so smoothly. No matter what the question or detail we were helped every step of the way. Also the registrar team were brilliant too, so reassuring and helped the nerves. The barn was beautiful during the day and evening and we'll treasure memories forever. Thank you so much to all the Shustoke team, and to all those future couples wishing to get married it'll be your best decision to marry and celebrate at Shustoke.

— Louise & Simon, August 2019

The staff at Shustoke Barn make sure that their fantastic service and food live up to the stunning building they work in. Our day ran so smoothly; the food was delicious and we received so many wonderful comments about how beautiful the venue is. A special touch was the fire pits, keeping those who were less keen on dancing occupied with sparklers and toasting marshmallows. We had the wedding of our dreams.

— Kate & Aaron, August 2019

 

This venue is something else, so stunning and the staff are so polite and can't do enough for you. You made our big day stress free so a big thank you to you all.

— Lianne & Jordan, August 2019

 

 We just wanted to say the biggest thank you to all the people on the day and behind the scenes that made every single aspect of our wedding day so unbelievably special. From the planning to the day itself the whole thing just filled us with goosebumps. The staff really could not do enough for us and our guests. No detail was too small.

And OMG the food! As foodies this was one of the top reasons we chose this venue and it did not disappoint. On the day and in the weeks after we’ve had so many comments about the food. Our guests were over the moon not to have “boring wedding food” to use their own words.

Thanks again for everything! Beautiful venue. Beautiful setting! Beautiful people!

— Kirsty & Jarvis, August 2019


As soon as we walked into Shustoke Barns we instantly knew we had to book this venue and we could not have wished for anywhere more perfect. The staff were incredible. From the day we hired the venue they were there to answer all of our questions. They were so supportive and accommodating throughout the whole day. Our guests all said how they were impressed with the staff. The venue is stunning and feels so relaxed. The food is amazing and the staff made sure that ourselves and our guests were well fed and always had a drink. Honestly could not recommend this place enough!

— Lynsey and Tom, July 2019


The venue was perfect - small enough that everyone is together and not dotted about all over the place but big enough that you can have a big wedding with outside and indoor space as well as an upstairs area perfect for putting kids entertainment that doesn’t take over the theme of the wedding. The staff were always on hand to help also in a friendly mood and had everything exactly how we wanted it and made sure we were happy with everything. If you had no decor the venue would still look fab. The food was fantastic and we had a lot of compliments on the food and venue throughout the day. The bar is close to the main room so people are all mingling together throughout the day. Lots of beautiful places for photos too and the evening pizzas were amazing. Thanks to everyone at Shustoke for making it so special.

— Isabel & Nic, July 2019


The venue is stunning and the attention to detail impeccable. All the staff were so friendly and helpful, ensuring the day ran like clockwork. The food and wine were fanastic and we had a lot of our guests comment it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding! I would thoroughly recommend going to a feast night before picking your food and especially the wine. The online booking system made it so simple to see what we needed to pay and when as well as being able to easily communicate with the venue when questions arose. The whole day was seamless from start to finish and we couldn't have asked for anything more. A HUGE thank you to all the team.

— Kelly & Tom, July 2019


Thank you to you all for making our wedding day so super special. From the very start you have all been so polite and helpful which made the planning a breeze. The day was absolutely perfect, the set-up, the food/drink, organisation and service. We will always highly recommend this venue to future couples. Thank you again to you all, it was truly a day to remember.

— Emily & Kerry, July 2019


Jon & I just wanted to say how much we all enjoyed attending your feast. Not only did we find the service to be outstanding but we thought to food was to die for and fell in love with the barn all over again after seeing it at night. 

We also found that trying the food and wine was extremely helpful as we now know, firstly, that whatever we decided to have on our day will be delicious but secondly, we were surprised by dishes that we had not even considered.  

So thanks again, we are now counting down the days until our wedding, 422 to go! 

— Lauren & Jon, June 2019


From the outset communication & planning was meticulous, I am extremely organised and like attention to detail, this was echoed through each stage with Ellis, from the selection of our food, table plans, decor, even up to the final few days before where small changes had to be made. The tables were laid out beautifully, exactly in the order I had requested, my suppliers had access for flowers, balloons and I left Ellis & her team to decide where to place all the favours and goodies I had for our guests, this was executed to perfection. We arrived to be blown away, it had all come together to give the wow factor! The food & staff were fantastic, courteous, constantly on hand to ensure our day went as smoothly as possible. This is a truly beautiful venue for making magical memories coupled with exceptional service, which will exceed your expectations on one of the best days of your life!

— Alexis & Craig, June 2019

The food, the service and attitude from  all of you staff was exceptional , its very refreshing to see staff that enjoy what they are doing.

— Tracey & David (guests), June 2019

We fell in love with the venue instantly and knew it was where we wanted to get married. The barn and grounds are so beautiful that even without personal styling, it still looks stunning. The food and drinks were wonderful and the staff were so lovely and helpful. It truly was a magical day and the best day of our lives, and Shustoke will always have a special place in our hearts.

— Annie & Matthew, May 2019


Our wedding was just an absolutely perfect day. The staff from start to finish we're attentive, kind and patient! Casey our day coordinator made sure everything went to plan, even just to make sure I got a minute on my own to take the day in which I'd asked for. The set up of the room was done exactly as we wanted, probably better! The food was out of this world, (we had been to the feast evening so we knew it was going to be amazing anyway). It was literally a feast. The starter, main & dessert has our guests and us in food heaven! Our night coordinator Callum made sure everything went to plan, from the band and Dj turning up and getting organised to the perfect timing of all our evening events. We would like to say that we wouldn't ever wish to have got married anywhere but Shustoke, all the staff were incredible and made our day just even more perfect. All our guests had commented that it was one of the best wedding venues they had been to and how beautiful and fun the day was.

—  Lucy & Daniel, May 2019


We had an amazing day at Shustoke. Throughout our wedding process, they were helpful and responsive; they understood that we sometimes had no idea what we were doing and were patient and genuine. On the day, the staff, in particular Megan, helped to make us feel relaxed and really looked after. The food was amazing! The venue is absolutely stunning- everybody commented on how beautiful it is there- and even in the rain, it had the perfect atmosphere. Thank you so much for making our day run smoothly.

— Victoria & James, April 2019


From the moment we viewed the venue we fell in love. It was absolutely perfect. The planning and co-ordination from the staff at Shustoke were incredible from emails back and forth running up to our wedding day to the day itself. The venue is ideal for weddings including children as there is so much space for them to roam and its so safe and secluded and so much room for them to play. The setting is stunning and our pictures are just incredible. The food and drink is amazing and so much to go around with loads spare! We had so many compliments on the food we chose. Would highly recommend attending a taster evening, well worth the money and really helped us choose from their incredible menus.

— Emily & Simon, April 2019


Sam, myself and all of our family and friends had a fantastic day at Shustoke Farm Barns and we were blown away by what Shustoke did for us. They looked after us all and made our day run perfectly! Our guests simply couldn't get over how amazing the venue was and when walking through the main doors, people were just hit with the wow factor! They really complimented Shustoke on every aspect of the day from the staff to the food and just how stunning the venue is. A personal thank you to both Kasey and Tom for looking after both of us throughout the day. They both made us feel at ease and talked us through every step. You simply could not ask for better.

— Samantha & Kevin, April 2019


Our wedding was just perfect. From start to finish your staff were attentive and made sure the day went as well as it did. The food was amazing and all of our guests can vouch for that. We had the best day ever in the most beautiful venue. Myself and my husband would like to send you a great big thank you for helping make our day the best day of our lives.

— Leanne & Paul, April 2019


We had a fabulous day, the Shustoke staff could not do enough and really went above and beyond. The food was fantastic and all the guests have said what a wonderful venue and had such a great time.

— Rachael & Mark, April 2019

We couldn't have booked a more beautiful venue. The setting at Shustoke is absolutely idyllic and the staff couldn't have been any more helpful and lovely. We felt completely comfortable and everything went flawlessly.

Gabrielle & Sam, April 2019


We have just had the most amazing wedding day at Shustoke and couldn’t recommend it more. The venue is truly breathtaking! The staff were fantastic and the food was absolutely delicious. We couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you everyone.

— Jessica & Andrew, April 2019


Absolutely beautiful location and venue. The staff were very professional and attentive during our special day. I could not of wished for a better day. I'm so blessed and thankful.

— Anisa & Adam, March 2019


I can’t say enough about Shustoke Farm Barns, from the moment we saw it, we fell in love with it. From the moment we booked the customer service was outstanding. Responded to my millions of questions positively and quickly, and really helped plan our big day down to the very last detail. All of our guests were blown away by the stunning venue, amazing food and welcoming staff. The guest meat carving went down a storm too. It was the prefect location for our winter wedding.

— Zoe & Sharif, February 2019


We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you all for making our day so special. Everything went so smoothly which meant we didn’t have to worry about a thing. Thanks to both the Toms for managing the day and evening so well, they made it easy for us. Thanks also to all the other brilliant staff. The food was amazing and we have had so many people commenting how it’s the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, I include the pizzas in that too! The whole venue was just amazing.

— Becky & Matt, February 2019


Thank you to all the staff at Shustoke Barn, you were all so so lovely and kept us very well fed and watered. Please tell the chef that the food was unreal and got so many compliments. So huge huge thank you to all the amazing staff for helping to make our day so so special. It was possibly one of the best days of my life and was my absolute dream wedding. 

— Nicola & John, February 2019


Thank you for all of your hard work and for making our day absolutely magical- wish we could do it all again! The Shustoke team were absolutely fantastic and really enabled us to relax and enjoy the day. All of our guests couldn’t praise the venue and the staff highly enough, so thank you!!

When we first looked around Shustoke Barn we had no idea what we wanted from a wedding venue - but you changed everything! We quickly realised that if we tried to plan our perfect wedding from scratch, it would not be as good as the incredible day provided by Shustoke. 
You have captured everything that we could have possibly wanted from a wedding venue: the incredible setting, the amazing food choices, the flexibility to make it personal and the experience to make everything run smoothly. Your staff were fantastic, both in the run up to our big day and on the day itself - nothing was too much to ask and they were always one step ahead.

— Laura & Jonny, December 2018


The venue was beautiful and the staff were very friendly and accommodating of our questions. Correspondence with the venue in the lead up to the day was fantastic, every question and concern was dealt with promptly and we never felt pressured to take on more than we felt comfortable with. The day itself was utterly perfect, the venue was beautiful, the staff were fantastic, the food was incredible. Our co-ordinator Megan was just amazing and managed everything without us having to be involved, which allowed us to relax and enjoy the day to its fullest. It truly was the best day of our lives and we can’t thank Shustoke Barns enough for it.

— Jessica & Mike, November 2018


“Wow - what a place! The moment we stepped in the door and viewed this venue we knew it was the one. It is beautiful! Our day was perfect - the staff were exceptional and the day couldn’t have run any smoother. Thank you so much for making this such a special day for us both.

— Leah & Liam, November 2018


“It’s such a beautiful venue and has so much character. The staff are incredibly attentive through the entire process and this is never more true than on the day itself - they were all brilliant. The preparations on the day were so easy and, given they know what works well, had everything under control. The food is absolutely sublime and there’s plenty of it too! The canapés and wedding breakfast went down a treat with our guests, who were all commenting on them for days after!.We were very lucky in that we had a clear and sunny day for our November wedding, but another feather in Shustoke’s cap is that it is so well heated. It really was the perfect venue for our perfect day.

— Rhian & Anthony, November 2018


“Huge thanks for making our daughter’s wedding day very special. They were over the moon with the care and attention given, as are all the family. 
The feast you provided was amazing, the lighting fabulous and everything ran so smoothly.

— Maria & Phil (Mother and Father of the Bride), November 2018


“Wow - what a place! The moment we stepped in the door and viewed this venue we knew it was the one. It is beautiful! Our day was perfect - the staff were exceptional and the day couldn’t have run any smoother. Thank you so much for making this such a special day for us both.

— Leah & Liam, November 2018


“Just wanted to let you know what a beautiful place Shustoke is:
The food was amazing. The staff fantastic. Such a magical day.

— Kelly & Ryan, November 2018


“We just wanted to say a massive thank you for making our special day perfect. Both Toms were excellent, they dealt with everything we threw at them, and made sure that the whole event ran exactly as planned.

All our guests said how beautiful the venue was, and a fair few said that the meal was the best wedding food they had ever had!

We can’t thank you enough and will be recommending you to all of our friends who are not yet married.

— Meghan and Owen, October 2018


“Utterly fantastic service, the barn was very well decorated, all the facilities were excellent. We were looked after for the entire night, with staff on hand to help with absolutely anything. We would 110% recommend the venue.

— Chloe & Dominic, October 2018


“Our niece’s wedding was held at this beautiful venue. The staff were helpful and unobtrusive. The lovely location was stunning, the space was used creatively & the bar prices were reasonable. The setting the ambience created and the extremely well organised staff team ensured we have all taken away priceless memories.

— Sarah, Wedding Guest, October 2018


“We would like to say a huge thanks for every response to multiple questions. 
Thank you to Ellis and ladies for an amazing set up and organisation of the morning and day. 
Thank you Tom for constantly finding me to check things, and helping organise the sparkler shot. 
We absolutely loved our day. You all made everything so easy and everyone commented on:

The beautiful venue
Amazing food and the amount of it
The flow and chillness of the entire day 

Couldn’t have done it without you all.

— Alison & Daine, September 2018


“The barn is absolutely beautiful, the staff were so welcoming and helpful. Throughout the whole thing from booking to the day, the staff were so quick to reply to any questions and on the day the service was second to none.
The food was out of this world, everyone commented on how delicious it all was and how every need was met.
Nothing was too much to ask for, as the bride and groom on the day you feel like superstars with the way the staff at Shustoke look after you, it was calm and controlled so we never felt rushed or pulled from pillar to post.
Our day was perfect and we cannot thank Shustoke enough.

— Fay & Jamie, September 2018


“The staff were polite, friendly and went out of their way to please and accommodate everyone. The food was lovely. I would definitely recommend Shustoke Barn.

— Joy (Wedding Guest), September 2018


“It was perfect from the moment we stepped foot in there for our first ever viewing to the last step out on our wedding day. The Shustoke team have been fabulous! Friendly, dedicated, outstanding... I could pick out so many more words. Every single one of our guests were blown away by the beauty of the barn. The food - well it has to be the most beautiful food we have ever eaten. The day ran seamlessly.

— Patricia & Gary, September 2018


“If you want somewhere that is highly organised, food is amazing, rustic scenes then Shustoke Barn is for you. Absolute amazing day people commented on how it’s the best food they had ever experienced at a wedding and staff couldn’t be anymore helpful. Great value for money, wish we could experience the day all over again!

— Charlotte & Daniel, September 2018


“We had a wonderful day, as did all of our guests. I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us, and for ensuring that everything ran smoothly. You were all so professional - thank you so much!

— Claire & Liam, September 2018


“The communication from the start has been fantastic, all our queries tended to promptly and politely, and everyone was absolutely amazing on the day with the set up, running of the event, and ensuring everyone was happy, fed, and catered for.
The best thing about it was that the staff were like ghosts, orchestrating things from the background, which in my mind means they are top professionals. Tom, in particular, was awesome and so calming.
Everyone made the day extra special, so on behalf of both of us - thank you.

— Josh & Rebecca, September 2018


“Shustoke barn was the first venue we viewed after getting engaged and from the minute we drove up to the barn we were blown away by how stunning it was. 

On our viewing day we were greeted by the very helpful staff and shown around the barn, this is when we fell completely in love with the barn and couldn’t wait to book our big day.

The booking and planning process was extremely straight forward and stress free. The staff were so helpful and quick to respond to any questions and requests we had and were great at handling changes to our menu, seating plans etc. At our planning meeting the staff discussed in great detail everything that would happen on the big day, even discussing small details such as confetti shots, toasting marshmallows, first dance times, cutting the cake etc. We left the meeting feeling so excited and reassured that our day would be absolutely perfect! And it really was the most perfect day! We would certainly recommend the barn to any couple who want a beautiful venue with a team of amazing staff to ensure everything is taken care of. 

We’ve had so many of our guests comment on the gorgeous food, stunning venue and helpful staff. We want to thank every single member of the Shustoke team for everything! It was a day we will never forget.

— Nicole & Daniel, August 2018


“I would like to say a big thank you for Wednesday. Everyone was really attentive and very helpful. Our guests commented on the beautiful venue, the fabulous food, and great staff.
We would like to say a particular thank you to Tom. He was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, he was friendly, very efficient and is great at his job.

— Charlotte & Paul, August 2018


“I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for making our day so special. It truly was perfect from start to finish. The day was seamless and ran like clockwork. I can not recommend Shustoke any higher. You created a vision and dream that we both thought was impossible. The venue, food, staff were all perfect!

— Heloise & Lloyd, August 2018


“We had an absolutely amazing day, it was honestly the best day of our lives! Thank you for all that you did, the day went without a single hitch.

— Lauren and Daniel, August 2018


“We would just like to say a huge huge thank you for our perfect wedding! We had the best day, we knew it would be good but it surpassed anything we could imagine. Thank you for all your help with planning and answering any questions we had. You have been brilliant from start to finish and we couldn’t have wished for anything more.

— Joanne & James, August, 2018


“If you want a beautiful wedding, perfect in every detail, then you need not look any further because Shustoke Farm Barns has everything covered. From the booking all the way to your big day, the amazing staff guide you through every part of the process along the way. My husband and I visited Shustoke first, and after looking at so many other venues all trying to entice you in with offers and discounts, we knew that nothing could compare to the feeling we got when we arrived at Shustoke. The attention to detail is what sets this venue so far apart from the rest. Even the little things that would probably go unnoticed make the difference, like for instance, raking the gravel entrance so the stones are perfect (nice touch), bee’s waxing the ceremony table so it looks amazing and just try and find a cobweb, they don’t exist there! These are all things we noticed when we visited. From the moment we booked, their online system was so efficient and it was so easy to get in touch with them. It’s really no problem at all if you need to chat or discuss anything in detail. On the day, our host Emma couldn’t have done more to make the day run smoothly. We are so happy with everything from start to finish, thank you to all of the staff at Shustoke Farm Barns you made our wedding a day that both our guests, myself and my husband will truly never forget.

— Sarah-Jayne & Dean, July 2018


“Shustoke - how do we even begin to thank you? We only looked at one venue and knew straight away when we walked in that this was the place that we wanted to hold our special day. Not only is the barn absolutely beautiful, the staff were so welcoming and helpful. Throughout the process of booking the venue and the months leading up, the staff were so quick to reply to any questions and on the day the service was second to none. We gave the team instructions of how we would like our decorations on the day and on arrival I was so overwhelmed by how perfect everything looked. The food was out of this world, everyone commented on how delicious it all was. Nothing was too much to ask for. As the bride and groom on the day you feel like superstars with the way the staff at Shustoke look after you! Our day was perfect and we can not thank Shustoke enough.

— Dannielle & Luke, July 2018


“We cannot rate Shustoke Farm Barns highly enough! From the moment we walked into Shustoke Farm Barns for the first time we knew we wanted to get married there. Having visited several other venues nearby, Shustoke shone out above them all - it is a truly stunning venue. After booking, the rest of the planning process right through to our wedding day lived up to our initial impressions. The staff are friendly, professional and highly organised - they really do think of everything. Any queries we had were answered speedily, and they did everything possible to accommodate special requests from us and our guests. On our wedding day the service was seamless - when we arrived at the venue everything had been arranged just as we planned it. All of the staff were attentive (without being intrusive), making sure everything ran completely smoothly. The food was incredible - arriving at all tables piping hot. We’ve had so many compliments from our guests about the great food and the beautiful venue. We cannot thank all of the staff at Shustoke enough - they contributed to making our wedding day perfect from start to finish, and ensured that we will remember it forever. We would not hesitate to recommend Shustoke Farm Barns to anyone.

— Gemma & Ian, July 2018


“We held our wedding reception at Shustoke Barn in Coleshill after we got married in our family church. I cannot express how amazing the staff were at this venue and how they managed the day. They were always on hand for anything you needed and the food and service was second to none. Everyone has commented on how incredible the venue was and all of them have said it was the best wedding they have ever been to! One of the comments in our guest book was ‘that’s how you do a wedding!’. I genuinely believe that was due to Shustoke Barn. An especially big thank you goes out to Tom. He was with us from the planning meeting right through to the day and really helped us to make the reception as amazing as everyone has said it was. I would definitely not hesitate to recommend this venue and its staff to anyone thinking of getting married there.

— Matt & Kate, July 2018


“We had our wedding Shustoke Barns and we had the best day. The food was amazing, the venue looked stunning and the staff were great. Everyone commented on how beautiful the venue was and how nice the food was. Thanks again 

— Kelly & Daniel, July 2018


“Honestly the best day of our lives, Ellis and Tom could not do enough for us. All the staff were lovely, everything ran smoothly, so many compliments on how stunning the venue is from our guests. Can’t recommend enough. Thank you 

— Sarah & Sean, July 2018


“Shustoke has such a natural beauty, it was just a perfect fit and size for us. The building itself is impressive with its high ceilings, wooden beams and brickwork patterns. These were complimented beautifully with a modern twist of the floor to ceiling glass front and beautiful courtyard. The staff made the planning process effortless and guided us through every decision in great detail. They understand what works and adapted to our tastes perfectly. The day seemed to take care of itself, it ran seamlessly from start to finish, although we know that this was down to the staff’s tireless effort on the day. The experienced team really know how to host a fabulous day. Thank you so much; myself, Daniel and all of our guests had a wonderful day. From the smallest of details to the copious amounts of delicious food, you made it perfect in every way!

— Sophie & Daniel, June 2018


“From early planning stages through to the big day itself all the staff where superb. Shustoke Barn is an ideal venue for a wedding ceremony. The day itself all ran very smoothly, again all the staff were brilliant. We’ve had very positive feedback from our guests in attendance who have said just how good the day was and how good the venue is and also numerous positive comments stating just how good all the staff were on the day. Fell in love with the venue at the outset. A truly enchanting place for the best day of our lives. It will remain in our hearts. Wow!!. Thank you so very much for contributing in making our day so wonderful.

— Karen & Matt, June 2018


“Selecting our venue was the most difficult part of our planning process. We wanted somewhere that was just the right size, but not big enough for people to wander off and get lost, with beautiful scenery and fun dining options. As soon as we walked into Shustoke, we knew we had found THE venue! We reserved a date straight away after receiving a comprehensive quote that left nothing to the imagination, and I am over the moon to say that the team at Shustoke completely over delivered against all of our expectations. All of the staff we dealt with were extremely accommodating and helpful with queries/ happy to make amendments even when very close to the wedding date. Our guests with food intolerances or allergies were full of praises with regards to how well they were catered for, and we got so many compliments about the food with many guests saying it was the best they had ever had at a wedding. In fact, many people said it was the best wedding they had ever been to, which I would have to agree with! The day itself ran like clockwork- our day manager Ellis was extremely well organised while still remaining relaxed meaning the day didn’t feel rigid or structured, which resulted in us not having to worry in the slightest about anything and just being able to enjoy our perfect day. I would really recommend the firepits as an extra- lots of guests enjoyed toasting marshmallows and it really added some extra ambience.

— Eleanor & David, June 2018


“We had the most fantastic day thank you! Still beaming even after coming back from our honeymoon today. So many amazing memories! We were so pleased with Shustoke and all of the help you gave us during planning and on the day itself. We will definitely recommend you to our friends in future!

— Sarah & Tom, June 2018


“Thank you so much for all you did for us on Sunday, it was a wonderful day and everyone complemented both the barn and the staff. Everything from start to finish went perfectly and it will be a day to remember for everyone.

— Lucy & Reiss, June 2018


“From start to finish all of the staff were just fantastic and made the booking, planning preparations and the running of the day so easy and smooth.
The venue was dressed perfectly, the food was incredible and all of the staff were happy and couldn’t do enough for us and our guests.

— Mary & Jeremy, May 2018


“We had an amazing day, and so did all of our guests. The venue looked fantastic and everyone had a great time. Please pass our thanks to everyone who worked on the day, in particular to Emma and Tom. 
They made everything run smoothly and looked after our guests so well. It was everything we hoped for.
— Hannah & James, May 2018


“We all had an absolutely amazing day, it could not have been more perfect! We would like to thank everybody at Shustoke who helped on the day, making it absolutely unforgettable, not just for us but for our guests too. We had so many comments on the venue, the food, the wonderful staff, we can’t thank you enough!

— Katie & Daniel, May 2018


“When we first saw Shustoke, we immediately knew it was the right venue for us. The first thing we were looking for was a space with good beams and exposed brick and, boy, did they deliver. The beauty of the space meant we only needed minimal decor throughout the venue, for both the ceremony and the reception. (We opted for the candlelight package which really brought the venue to life.) One of the easiest things about booking through Shustoke was their quoting system. We got to crunch the numbers for a variety of options, including dates, menu choices, and more. Throughout the process working with the venue, we repeatedly complemented them on their online system that was useful throughout the entire process, including keeping all communication in one handy place. At the wedding itself, our guests were very complimentary of the venue itself, as well as the staff, service, and food. We couldn’t have been happier with the location for our special day and couldn’t recommend it more highly.

— Hannah & Luke, May 2018


“Thank you to the whole team, especially Emma, who made our day so amazing on Sunday. We’ve had so many comments that ‘the venue couldn’t have been any better’ and the service, food and buildings were all 10/10.

— Megan & Andrew, May 2018



Myself and Mike would just like to tell you how perfect our day was yesterday. Each one of you went above and beyond to cater for everyone’s needs in the run up and during the wedding itself. 

Although you have hundreds of the weddings a year the experience you offer made us feel so unique and special, and we were so in love with every aspect of the venue and the food especially. 
Worth every penny, we couldn’t have dreamed of a better day. 

— Sigourney & Michael, April 2018


“If you’re looking for a stunning venue and a stress free wedding then take a look here. Tom and Kevin made everything run smoothly and we both felt the entire team were looking after us and our guests. I can’t praise this place enough. It was certainly better than my dreams and a great place to start our married life.

— Helen & Mark, April 2018


“Huge thanks to Emma, and all of the Shustoke staff who made sure everything ran seamlessly. We’ve had so many messages from friends and family telling us how wonderful they thought the venue was, and we’ll remember it forever.

— Gemma & Ian, April 2018


“We got married on Friday 13th April and had an absolutely fantastic day. As soon as we walked into the barn on an open day we were struck by the atmosphere and had an immediate feeling of this is the place where we will get married. The venue is spectacular and the staff are amazing. Everything was made easy for us, and the staff were so attentive, responding quickly to messages and putting us at ease. Thank you to Ellis and Kevin who were our managers on the day of the wedding. You guys were fantastic, putting both Justin and I at ease. We knew everything was in hand, and the day could not have gone better! Words cannot explain how much we appreciate all your hard work. We had a wonderful day, thank you for helping us start our married life in style.

— Anne & Justin, April 2018


“Sean and I would just like to say thank you to all the staff for making our day at your venue so memorable and special. The staff were excellent. They were very attentive and professional, and helped to make the day run so smoothly. We loved every second and can’t thank you all enough! Our guests have all commented on how beautiful the venue was and how delicious the food tasted! 

— Emily & Sean, April 2018


“Simply stunning! We fell in love with the barn as soon as we arrived, it is breathtaking! The layout is perfect and the surroundings are just beautiful. The food was superb on the day and plenty of it - the chocolate brownies were to die for! From the moment we booked the barn until the wedding day, the communication from everyone was so efficient and professional. Ellis our wedding manager on the day was amazing, her attention to detail is something else. I can’t thank the staff enough for making sure everything was exactly how we dreamed it would be - thank you! We will cherish our time with you until we are old and grey!

— Sammy & Simon, April 2018


“The team at Shustoke provided us with a wedding day we will cherish forever. Our family and friends could not stop complimenting the beautiful venue and the food. Charna and I were particularly impressed with how well coordinated the day was by the managers and the team. All of our planning came to light in the most magnificent way possible.

— Charna & Aaron, April 2018


“Just wanted to say a massive thank you to you all for last week. The day could not of got any better it was all the I hoped for and more. We’ve had loads of comments about the food and venue so thank you for making our day run so smoothly.

— Ruth & Adam, April 2018


“I, along with members of my family were lucky enough to be invited to a wedding at Shustoke Barns. What a wonderful day we all had. made so memorable by the attention to detail and amazingly hard work of your staff. My eldest daughter is vegan and her youngest sister is vegetarian. The staff called them by their names, and that was very special. Once again, the attention to detail in their menus was fantastic.
Please pass on our sincere thanks to ALL of your staff. They were amazing and a real credit to you and your company.

— Jane (Wedding Guest), March 2018


“Please believe the hype about Shustoke Farm Barns - it is incredible. Right from the start, from our initial viewing through to our wedding day, the team at Shustoke delivered more than we could have ever hoped for. You’re made to feel special but in control beforehand so that you can include all the special touches that you want. It’s so easy to communicate with them and they made everything happen with ease. On the day, our guests could not stop talking about how amazing everything was. The venue itself, the food (which deserves a special mention as it is so delicious), the welcoming staff. Tom & Ellis were fab and made everything run smoothly. We had the best day and we are so grateful.

— Rebecca & Adam, March 2018


“Could not have asked for a better venue. Beautifully set up and staff were helpful all day, making the day run smoothly. We got compliments from all guests about the food and they cater well for all dietary needs. Would highly recommend.

— Christie & Joseph, November 2017


“From the moment we stepped foot in the barn when we came to look around we knew it was the place for us. We cancelled all other viewings and booked it the next day, and we are so so glad we did. Throughout the planning process the staff at Shustoke were always on hand for any questions we had, even when they were such silly ones, responding in a matter of hours and putting our minds at ease. The day was just a dream, I honestly cannot praise the venue enough, it is just beautiful, even with a bit of rain the courtyard and surroundings just look stunning, and our photos have captured this in all its glory. The food was unbelievable, we have had many comments from our guests, with some saying it’s the best wedding food they’ve ever had, oh and we definitely recommend the pizzas...just divine!! But our biggest compliment has to go to the staff at Shustoke, all day they were on hand to top up drinks, offering out food, and overall just being there to make sure we and our guests were okay. There were no airs and graces about the staff, they were chilled out and laid back but so professional, and it just made everybody feel comfortable. Their efficiency to get things turned around during the day was unreal, I don’t quite know how they do it but they are the best at what they do, and I cannot thank them enough. We have and will continue to recommend Shustoke to everybody we know, because it truly is one of a kind. 

— Rachael & Ameet, December 2017


“Words cannot explain how amazing our day was and we cannot thank you enough. Everything from the start of our initial enquiry through to this morning when we collected our belongings, everything was outstanding and effortless. You really made our day, Emma was on hand to help Andrew during the set up first thing in the morning and when I arrived slightly emotional she quickly took control and calmed me down in an instant. Emma and the team were on hand and were so attentive nothing was left untouched. Emma was always one step ahead of me. I thought I was organised and in control, but this lady is amazing and a total asset to you. The waiting staff were so friendly and helpful, all with huge smiles. We really can’t thank you enough for everything and all of our guests have commented, a number of them saying it’s the best wedding they have EVER been too. “Beef was outstanding, best wedding breakfast ever, canapés just kept coming, no scrimping on portions here, building is stunning, wow, incredible team, manager is fab, I totally love it” are just some of the words people have used. 
 
Shustoke you made our day complete thank you SO much. We love that we even made your Facebook page!
 

— Gemma & Andrew, December 2017


“We had the most fantastic time on Saturday - thank you. Everything went so smoothly and our guests loved Shustoke. We really appreciate all of the effort you put into the wedding. 

— Lauren & Joe, December 2017


“I would encourage anyone to book their special day at this wonderful venue. The day was perfect from start to finish. The barns are not only beautiful but also the perfect size for an intimate wedding. We had around 70 guest in the day. With around 110 in the evening. The staff we so efficient, we barely noticed they were there. Never did my glass go empty. They couldn’t do enough for us and were very polite when I had a minor bridezilla moment due to my wedding dress getting rather muddy - no fault of the staff of course. The food honestly was delicious and there was so much of it- they definitely don’t scrimp on anything. I’ve been to weddings where the portions aren’t great and you’re left feeling a bit hungry- not at Shustoke. Everyone said how nice the food was. Even the children’s meals were lovely. The evening food went down a treat, we had hot dogs and bacon baps. The sausages were massive and the bacon baps were absolutely loaded with bacon! Correspondence before the big day was excellent. Someone always got back to us very quickly. I also loved how flexible they were, they allowed us to change our minds a million times without getting fed up of us. They were polite, accommodating and professional from booking, right up until after the wedding. At no point did we feel they were trying to upsell us or rip us off. But we both feel, had we paid double the price, it would have been worth every penny. It was everything we dreamed of and more. If you’re considering this place for your wedding- just book it. You will not regret it. 

— Jade & Darren, December 2017


“Thanks so much to everyone at Shustoke for making our day better than we could have ever imagined. All of the staff were amazing and couldn’t have done any more. Everyone that came was very complementary and couldn’t believe how beautiful the venue was. From the moment we walked into the venue for our first viewing until the wedding itself everything was so perfect and ran incredibly smoothly so again thanks so much.

— Melissa & Tom, December 2017


“We wanted the best for our daughters wedding and you did not disappoint. The venue is stunning and met all our expectations. The food was wonderful and was acknowledged as being so. by many of the guests. Due to the attention to detail of your wedding planner, the event went exactly to plan. Many thanks to you and your wonderful staff.

— Father of the Bride, December 2017


“Thank you for a great day. The venue was beautiful, food was amazing and we loved every second of our day. It was so relaxing and we could just enjoy ourselves as the staff were efficient, helpful and friendly and we didn’t want for anything!

— Heather & Nial, Nov 2017


“From the planning process right through to big day itself, all the staff at Shustoke have been the most amazing and helpful team. Our wedding day ran so smoothly, as soon as the ceremony was over we were able to sit back and relax while the Shustoke team looked after us and our guests. The food was incredible, genuinely the tastiest meal and all our guests were super impressed. The atmosphere was so relaxed as everyone helped themselves to their food from the centre of the tables, the dinner had such a casual and informal feel to it which suited us perfectly. The pizza in the evening was equally as tasty! There was a constant flow of drinks which were being refilled by the attentive staff. Lastly the venue itself is stunning, and fitted perfectly with our rustic autumn wedding.

— Rosie & Mal, Nov 2017


“Can I just say how overwhelmed we both were with Shustoke Farm Barns, the level of service, the food and how brilliantly smoothly you guys made the day run for us.

— Jenny & Mark, Nov 2017


“This venue was the only one we went to visit and we knew it was perfect for us and our taste. Choosing what you would like for your day is so easy and communication with the venue is fantastic. The venue itself is a stunning picturesque building laden with beautiful lights and glass, but is also a great canvas to personalize how you like. As soon as I (bride) arrived I was greeted and directed through what I needed to do, and I was made to feel at ease at all points. The staff guided us both through the day and they prepared the rooms so quickly for us to carry on enjoying ourselves. The ceremony was perfect, the dinner was perfect, the first dance was perfect, the reception was perfect, Nobody was kept waiting for anything. The only negative is that nobody will stop talking about how great the roast potatoes and canapes were and we can’t find anything as good again! We got a day we never imagined we would have, if anything it was better. They are some of the fondest memories. We cannot thank you enough and we would recommend you to anyone looking for a natural, beautiful, relaxed wedding.

— Holly & James, Nov 2017


“From the very first contact, everyone at the venue has been friendly and approachable. They have an easy to use quoting system and were clear and flexible on costs, Although we weren’t allocated a designated point of contact from the beginning, it didn’t matter as everyone knew our requirements and understood our booking, thanks to their simple online system. We met them several times before the wedding, including a final planning meeting 6 weeks before where they took us through the day step by step so we knew what to expect. They were very knowledgeable and fully involved, even with the smallest details of the day. When we had questions, or needed advice they were really knowledgeable and always gave the best answer for us, not just what was easiest or most common. Every member of staff seemed to fully understand how important this day was to us, taking care and attention to ensure the day ran as we wanted, not just running each wedding the same as the last. We couldn’t have chosen a better place to spend the best day of our lives!

— Luke & Cara, Nov 2017


“We are so glad we picked Shustoke Farm Barns as our wedding venue. From the minute we booked it, everything was faultless. In the run up to the wedding all the staff were so helpful and prompt in answering our questions and helped us plan the perfect day. On the day, the chef was fantastic, taking particular notice of my dietary requirements. The whole day was faultless and the staff were so efficient yet you didn’t even know that they were there. We wish we could do it all over again! A big thank you to Ellis and Tom for making our day unforgettable. All our guests commented on how fantastic the food was, how plentiful the portions were and how seamlessly the day went. Thank you.

— Kirsty & Luke. August 2017


“Ever since we saw Shustoke Farm Barns on a list of ‘Top Wedding Venues in Birmingham’ we put it down as our first choice. After we had viewed the venue, we couldn’t say no; we were so impressed by the beautiful surroundings and the spacious barn conversion (we must add that the lighting around the barn and the venue as a background is just perfect for photos!) Throughout the whole planning process, all of the staff - who we communicated with - were pleasant and very helpful. The system they use (My Venue Online) is a useful tool that takes a lot of stress away. We often used the site to ask questions or change details and the staff would always respond and meet our needs quickly. On the day itself, once again the staff were simply wonderful. From holding umbrellas when it rained, to ordering taxis for the majority of guests, to setting out a number of fans when the dance floor got too warm - nothing was a problem (not even setting up our Krispy Kreme Doughnut Tower, which looked particularity challenging). On to the food and drink. Wow! I think every single guest had approached us and commented on how delicious the food was. We were more than impressed by the presentation and how tasty the food was. The bar was open until late -which many of our guests were pleased about. It was well stocked and the drinks were a reasonable price. Overall, we have absolutely no complaints with the staff and this venue and would definitely recommend it! For us it was the perfect place to get married and we hope that we are lucky enough to visit again as day guests so we can enjoy it all over again!

— Danielle & Daniel. Aug 2017


“A huge thank you to all your staff for being so fantastic, helpful & cheery. Please pass on a special thank you to the chefs, as some of Bernie’s family are retired chefs, and they were so impressed at how great the food was. Everyone was full of compliments about the venue, staff, food …… everything! We had the best day of our lives, so thank you.

— Bernie & Emily. Jul 2017


“The venue was beautiful and the location was great. Food was lovely and the staff were very helpful. The wedding planning meeting answered all of our questions, and the staff were very helpful on the run up to and on the day itself. If we could do it all again, we’d definitely get married at Shustoke again!

— Josie & Adam. Jul 2017


“I’ve been fortunate enough to attend a bunch of weddings all over the world and this is hands down one of the best venues I’ve seen. The people who run and work at Shustoke Farm Barns understand that the perfect execution of the simple (but high quality) elements of an event virtually guarantee that hosts and guests will have a brilliant time there. The food was of the very highest quality, the staff were courteous, helpful and friendly and the venue itself - including the beautiful courtyard - was truly lovely.

— Deepak. Jul 2017


“A massive thank you to everyone at Shustoke Farm Barns for making our wedding day absolutely magical. The whole day was perfect thanks to the amazing staff. We had so many lovely comments from our guests about the delicious food (and how there was so much of it!) and how beautiful the venue is. If we could come back and do it all again we would, it was incredible from start to finish.

— Kazia & Dan. Jul 2017


“Can I just say what a wonderful day we had on Monday, you all went over and above to give myself and husband such a perfect day, we are so grateful for how hard you all worked and how attentive you all were. A big thank you too to Emma for calming my nerves prior to the ceremony.

— Kate & Ian. Jul 2017


“Thank you so much we had the most amazing day, we really appreciate the hard work your staff put into making our day run so well. Can you pass on our thanks to everyone for us, honestly it was the best day of our lives.

— Sarah & Simon. Jul 2017


“Stewart and I would like to thank all of the staff at Shustoke for making our wedding day so perfect. It felt magical and everything went completely to plan. The day ran like clockwork which made us feel at ease, and allowed us to sit back and just enjoy the day. We had a large wedding party but the staff were so professional and organised it wasn’t at all hectic. Our guests have all commented on how impressed they were with the stunning venue, food and most importantly all those working behind the scenes. We just wish we could do it all again and we shall be highly recommending you.

— Heather & Stewart. Jul 2017


“Thank you for the best wedding day! It could not of been more perfect for us both, everyone had the best day and thank you to everyone that was working on the day it was the best day of our lives.

— Callaghan & Patrick. Jul 2017


“Just wow! We had the best day ever, thank you so much for everything you guys do there at Shustoke Farm Barns. We could not be happier with how our day went, it was perfect in every way.

— Natalie & Greg. Jul 2017


“When we read the reviews for this venue and saw the pictures online we were confident this would be the venue for us. Within 10 minutes of our first viewing it was better than we thought and we’d already decided we were booking. The day itself was an absolute dream. We were both a bag of nerves and full on deer in headlights in the morning, but the staff were just incredible all day with us and our guests. We all knew where to go and when, what was coming up and what would be going on. Seamless organisation, we can’t praise them enough honestly. The venue was just beautiful day and night, our guests complimented it all day as being such a unique and totally awesome building. We chose not to put up any decorations just because the exposed brick, gorgeous oak throughout, candlelight and tiny lights in the ceiling beams were just stunning. FOOD!! Every single person had something to say about the food. “Best food they’ve ever had at a wedding” and our day guests had to have a good breather before even contemplating an evening snack. We had the British Feast with beef and everyone loved that the meat was carved at each table and the large portions of potatoes and veg were put in the middle for you to help yourself. Our guests did find a space eventually and the pizzas provided by Baz & Fred were enjoyed by all. To all the staff, especially Emma and Tom who were our main contacts on our day, thank you so much for giving us the best wedding ever in the perfect venue.

— Melissa & Phil. Jul 2017


“Thank you for everything everyone did to make our day the best day of our lives. It was perfect and everyone commented on how beautiful the venue was and how brilliant the staff were. We can’t thank you enough.

— Hannah & Gareth. Jul 2017


“Thank you so much to everybody at the barns it’s was absolutely incredible you were all magic. 

— Adam & Hannah. Jul 2017


“Thank you so much, we had the most perfect day. All the staff were amazing and I cannot recommend the venue enough. It was amazing.

— Laura & Shaun. Jul 2017
