Why couples choose Harefield Barn

Harefield Barn combines the character of a rural wedding with the comfort and practicality of a contemporary venue. Vast windows frame the surrounding landscape and flood the interiors with natural light, while bifold doors connect the Main Hall and bar with the terrace.

The barn is designed as a true blank canvas, allowing couples to keep the styling simple or transform the space with flowers, colour and personal details. A limited number of weddings is hosted each year, enabling the small team to offer attentive and personal support.

Extended hire also gives couples time to set up their celebration without rushing, while exclusive use ensures the barn and grounds belong entirely to the wedding party.

Marry with a countryside view

Harefield Barn offers six licensed ceremony spaces, ranging from intimate indoor settings to larger rooms overlooking the Devon countryside.

The Main Hall provides a bright and spacious setting for a larger ceremony, with full-height windows placing the landscape behind the couple as they exchange their vows. Smaller spaces within the barn create a more intimate atmosphere for elopements and micro weddings.

Outside, the Clock House offers a romantic ceremony setting with the countryside stretching into the distance. As the venue provides both indoor and outdoor options, plans can be adapted easily if the weather changes.

The Leveret Suite gives the wedding party a private and comfortable place to prepare before the ceremony or retreat for a quiet moment during the day.

Celebrate in the barn

The Main Hall can be personalised for wedding breakfasts of up to 130 guests, with plenty of room for dining, speeches and dancing. Evening celebrations can welcome as many as 200 people.

Large bifold doors allow drinks and canapés to flow onto the terrace in warmer weather. Later, guests can gather around the outdoor firepit or return to the stylish bar, where a woodburner brings warmth to autumn and winter weddings.

Couples can choose from Harefield Barn’s preferred caterers, offering flexibility across different menus, budgets and styles of dining. The venue also offers selected all-inclusive and micro-wedding packages for couples seeking a more streamlined planning experience.

Explore the farm

The wider farm provides an array of natural backdrops for wedding photographs. Wildflower meadows, cornfields, cider orchards and open views capture the changing character of the Devon countryside throughout the seasons.

Inside the barn, the scissor beams of the Gallery, the giant mirror in the Leveret Suite and the light-filled Main Hall offer further possibilities when the weather is less cooperative.

Although there is no accommodation at the venue, Harefield Barn provides details of hotels, guest houses and self-catering properties around Crediton and Exeter.

Combining spectacular rural views, versatile spaces and warm personal service, Harefield Barn is an inviting choice for couples dreaming of an exclusive countryside wedding near Exeter.
