Cider Barn

The Cider Barn is a simple, rustic, but wonderfully charming venue. You find this old agricultural stone and thatched barn up a bumpy track through the woods. When you arrive, you're surrounded by the fields and woods of the Dillington Estate and lost to the world - apart from the views across the rolling Somerset countryside - in your own rustic, magical and romantic haven.

Celebrate Your Dream Wedding at Dillington Estate

Tucked away in the peaceful Somerset countryside, Dillington Estate offers a truly enchanting setting for your wedding. With its rustic stone and thatched barn, rolling fields, and woodland backdrop, it feels like you’ve discovered your very own private world — one where romance and celebration come effortlessly together.

The Venue: The Cider Barn

The heart of the estate’s weddings is The Cider Barn — an authentic agricultural barn reimagined into a beautiful event space. Inside, you’ll find exposed wooden beams, atmospheric fairy lighting, and stone walls that whisper stories of history and charm. Large windows and direct access into the walled garden invite the outdoors in, making the venue especially beautiful during soft-light afternoons or golden-hour evenings.

Up to 120 Guests (and beyond)

Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a lively reception, The Cider Barn adapts beautifully. It’s licensed for civil ceremonies of up to 120 guests, with the option to use the stunning Church of St. Mary next door for larger numbers. For the evening, you can expand into the courtyard and garden space — accommodating up to 150 guests for drinks, dancing, and late-night celebration under the stars
