The Gathering Barn

The Gathering Barn is an exclusive-use countryside venue at Keysley Farm, near Warminster in Wiltshire. Set among the South Wiltshire Downs, its restored brick-and-flint barns, courtyard and surrounding grounds offer a rural setting for weddings and other private celebrations. Organisers can hire the venue for several days, with time to prepare, welcome guests and enjoy the occasion at a relaxed pace.

The site includes two main barns, each licensed for marriage and civil ceremonies, as well as outdoor ceremony options. The Long Barn can seat up to 100 guests at tables, while the Middle Barn can seat up to 70. Both can also be arranged for ceremonies with guests seated in rows. Across the whole venue, capacity is listed at up to 200 people, including staff. The spaces can be used for different parts of a celebration, from the ceremony and meal to the evening party.

The venue is offered as a blank canvas, so organisers can choose their own suppliers and shape the day to suit their plans. A well-equipped catering kitchen is available for the chosen caterer. Other facilities include accessible areas, underfloor heating, Wi-Fi, parking and a backup generator. The venue also has a camping paddock available for Saturday night.

On-site accommodation helps couples and guests make a longer stay of the occasion. The self-contained barn accommodation sleeps up to eight, and an additional cottage can sleep up to eight more. The rural grounds, courtyard and nearby countryside provide outdoor space for guests to relax and for photographs. The Gathering Barn is therefore suited to couples seeking a private, flexible wedding venue with ceremony, reception and accommodation options in one location.
