A huge and heartfelt thank you to Una, Nigel, and entire team for making our wedding day so incredibly special. ❤️ Despite the weather being so rainy, you went above and beyond to make sure Amos and I were looked after every step of the way. Your care, support, and willingness to accommodate us made such a difference and allowed us to relax and enjoy our special day. We are also so grateful to the whole team for making sure all of our guests were well fed, comfortable, and beautifully catered for throughout the entire event. Everything was handled with such care and professionalism, and we truly felt that everyone was taken care of. Our wedding day was everything we could have hoped for, and honestly, it would not have been as perfect without Una, Nigel, and the amazing team behind the scenes. Thank you for all your hard work, kindness, patience, and dedication. We will always be grateful for the part you played in making our wedding day so memorable. ❤️✨

We held our wedding celebration at Awberry Farm in May 2026 after a blessing in St Mary’s in Beenham. The venue is just stunning. It is hard to do it justice with photos and videos. We highly recommend that you should visit before you make any decisions about venues. The attention to detail by the hosts, Una and Nigel, is also exceptional with every question pre-empted before we had even thought of them. We chose the food provided by the venue which was fabulous. There are 2 unique factors for this venue: first everything is include in the price with no hidden extras which I think is very important given you only get married once and have no experience of the finer details; second there is on site accommodation available for 2 nights [8 double rooms of 5 star quality] and a further 4 double rooms in the 6 Bells which is only 100m walk to the venue. The Six Bells also does excellent food. A summary of our perfect day: pre-wedding celebration in the 6 Bells on Friday, 6 groups stayed on the Friday night where we had an informal meal, guests arrived at the venue from 1230 for soft drinks and pastries, walk to the church through the village, return to the venue for fizz and canapés in the garden, celebration meal between 5.30pm and 7.30pm followed by a band who played until 11pm, buffet style breakfast at 10am on Sunday for those who stayed and final goodbyes by 1200. Finally we found nothing anywhere near Awberry Farm which could meet our expectations as Una and Nigel were able to deliver.
Response from the owner:Hi John, Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so pleased you enjoyed the on-site and The Six Bells accommodation and our all-inclusive approach with no hidden surprises. It was a pleasure to host your special weekend and to work so closely with The Six Bells to make it such a memorable occasion. Una & Nigel

We stayed at Awberry Farm for my sister’s wedding and couldn’t have asked for a more welcoming venue. From the moment we arrived, the owners were warm, friendly and incredibly accommodating, always happy to help with whatever was needed, whether it was printing, finding supplies, or simply making sure everyone was looked after. The venue itself is beautiful. The gardens are immaculately maintained, with thoughtful touches throughout, and the ceremony beneath the magnificent oak tree was simply magical. It was also reassuring to see that excellent wet-weather options were in place, although thankfully we enjoyed a perfect summer’s day. The reception space was beautifully presented, and it was clear how much care goes into every detail behind the scenes. The accommodation was comfortable, and the whole property has a peaceful, relaxed atmosphere that made it a wonderful place to stay for a wedding weekend. Above all, it’s the people who make Awberry Farm so special. Their genuine hospitality and attention to detail helped make what was already a very special family occasion even more memorable. We’d happily recommend Awberry Farm to anyone looking for a beautiful, family-run wedding venue and would love to return.

We had the pleasure of being part of a wedding here recently, where I was a bridesmaid and my partner was the MC, and we couldn’t have been more impressed. The venue is absolutely stunning, with so many beautiful spaces that made the whole day feel seamless and relaxed. One of the standout features was the accommodation layout. Having the bedrooms so close together created such a lovely, intimate atmosphere for the bridal party. It made getting ready together, popping between rooms, and sharing those special moments so easy and added something really special to the day. Una was an incredible host from start to finish. She was so warm, organised, and attentive, and her support helped everything run smoothly. It was clear how much care she puts into creating a wonderful experience for every couple and their guests. This venue has such a special feel, and the thoughtful layout really allows the day to flow naturally from one moment to the next. We would absolutely recommend it to any couple looking for a beautiful, welcoming place to celebrate their wedding.

We genuinely could not have asked for a more perfect wedding venue than Awberry Farm. From the moment we first met Una and Nigel, even before we booked, we knew there was something special about the place. They immediately put us at ease because it was obvious how much they genuinely cared about the couples they hosted. It never felt corporate or transactional. It felt like they were personally invested in making our day the best it could possibly be. Una was incredible throughout the entire process. She struck the perfect balance between warmth, professionalism and authority. It felt like having an experienced wedding planner on our side. From planning the timings to running the rehearsal, every piece of advice she gave turned out to be spot on. The whole day flowed effortlessly, and that’s entirely down to her experience. One of our favourite memories is seeing Una’s beaming smile as we walked into the Fizz Garden after the ceremony, with two glasses of bubbles already waiting for us. It perfectly summed up how thoughtful she was throughout. Nigel was equally fantastic, constantly working behind the scenes to make sure everything ran smoothly. Together, they went above and beyond in ways they simply didn’t have to. The attention to detail at Awberry Farm is exceptional. So many thoughtful touches are included, from blankets and flip-flops to vases, cake stands and a whiskey barrel for displaying the cake (did we mention a gong for the speeches?!?) After we’d finished decorating, Una even suggested some signs that perfectly matched our flowers and colour scheme, which ended up featuring in so many of our favourite photos. The food was outstanding. We chose the tart starter, chicken with thyme gravy for the main and white chocolate panna cotta for dessert, and every course was exceptional. Chef Luke was brilliant too. Friendly, enthusiastic and clearly passionate about making the whole experience special. We also made a last-minute change to banquet-style serving, and the team adapted without any fuss or extra charges. The food was served perfectly, swiftly, and our guests have raved about it in the weeks since. We loved how the venue offered so many different spaces throughout the day. Guests could dance indoors, relax in the sunny courtyard, wander through the fields or pop across to the pub. It almost felt like a festival, with everyone finding their own favourite places and creating their own memories. Another lovely touch was how carefully the team thought about the drinks. They even created a custom menu featuring the drinks our guests usual prefer (Aperol Spritz and mini Guinnesses), which everyone loved. What really sets Awberry Farm apart is that it feels like a family-run venue in the very best sense. You receive all the professionalism and organisation you’d expect, combined with genuine warmth, generosity and care that is incredibly rare. Our wedding exceeded every expectation we had, and so much of that was down to Una, Nigel, Luke and the whole Awberry Farm team. We couldn’t recommend them more highly.

We got married at Awberry Farm in late May 2026 and I honestly don't even know where to start, it was absolutely, completely perfect. We first visited nearly a year and a half before our wedding, before the venue was even ready for weddings, and even then we could see it immediately, the potential was just so obvious. Fast forward to our wedding day and it was absolutely stunning. Really well thought out, really well laid out, and even more beautiful than we'd imagined. Our guests stayed in the eight rooms on site, which were so comfortable and well-designed, with plenty of space for me to start getting ready as the bride before I moved over to the cottage. The whole weekend had this amazing festival feeling, like we'd gathered all our favourite people in one place and just didn't want it to end. Being able to chill with friends the evening before, the morning of the wedding, and then again over breakfast the next day was just wonderful. We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather and get married under the oak tree, which was honestly one of the most beautiful experiences of my entire life. In late May it was in full bloom, there was a brilliant blue sky, a light breeze, all of our guests sitting out on the lawn, and walking up the aisle to get married in the shade of that tree felt incredibly, incredibly special. I'll never forget it, especially the sunset photos under the tree. Moving into Una and Nigel's garden for the drinks reception, which wraps around the front of their gorgeous listed cottage, was absolutely next level. I genuinely felt like I was in an episode of Bridgerton. The bar was placed perfectly so there was plenty of shade (it was such a sunny day), glasses were constantly topped up by the Awberry Farm team, and the catering from Fingers & Forks was absolutely sublime. We also got our photo in front of the beautiful front door, which was a genuine goal for the day, ticked off. The barn for the wedding breakfast was perfect. It has the most amazing old features and such a real sense of heritage, and it easily held our 100 guests. We were able to create different sections so the children had their own table and the run of the bar area, which meant the adults could actually relax and hear the speeches. Which, honestly, felt like a miracle. The wine selection is amazing, Nigel really knows his craft, the cocktails were all delicious, and we had the most brilliant ceilidh to top it all off. But honestly, the thing I want to talk about most is Una and Nigel. We're quite a relaxed couple and they just got it. They picked up everything we needed to stay on top of, kept us to deadlines, had conversations with suppliers that just needed to happen without us having to chase a single thing. It was one less thing on the list, and we just knew we were in safe hands. Nothing was too much trouble, and I really mean that. At one point Una was running around the side of the house finding trails of ivy so we could add them to my bouquet. That's the kind of people they are. On the day itself, everything ran like clockwork. Every single guest commented on it, how Awberry Farm is just the quintessential perfect English countryside wedding. Everything was thought of. The staff were absolutely amazing. It was just perfect, in every single way. If you're looking for a beautiful venue that covers everything under one roof, with two owners who are genuinely, completely invested in your day being perfect, I cannot recommend Awberry Farm highly enough. We felt so lucky to have found it.

Amazing hosts, great rustic style barn hall that worked perfectly for dinner and dancing. Beautiful heritage buildings with well appointed modern interiors for the accommodation. Plenty of on site parking and only a very short walk (or crawl) across the nearby field to the Six Bells pub. The oak tree was lovely for the outdoor ceremony. Can’t recommend this venue and the lovely hosts enough.
Response from the owner:Hi Aidan, Thank you so much for your lovely review! We’re really pleased you enjoyed the rustic barn, accommodation, and heritage buildings, and that everything worked well for your stay. The local pub, The Six Bells is proving to be a winner for Wedding Weekends!

We have just attended my brother’s wedding celebrations hosted by Nigel and Una at Awberry Farm. The venue is delightful. Very good outdoor space for enjoying the sunshine and a beautifully cool barn for the meal and dancing. Lovely canapés and drinks served in the garden. The main meal was beautifully presented, tasty and efficiently served. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere created by our hosts. We stayed in their accommodation overnight which were very well appointed double rooms with shower and toilet. Breakfast was continental and again served in a very relaxed way. All round fabulous occasion. Thank you Nigel and Una and family x
Response from the owner:Thanks very much Ann! We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed all our lovely wedding spaces and that it was all very relaxing. Una & Nigel

Awberry Farm was a lovely venue for our daughter's wedding. The ceremony took place outdoors, under an oak tree and a cloudless sky. The photographs were taken in a beautifully kept garden, the catering was brilliant and the wedding breakfast and ceilidh in the rustic barn were wonderful. Our hosts, Una and Nigel, could not have been more helpful and accommodating. They made us feel like we were their extended family, so generous, nothing was too much trouble. A perfect and happy day from start to finish. Thank you Awberry Farm for helping us create the most wonderful memories.

Attended our friends' wedding and stayed over two nights. What a fabulous venue; everything perfectly arranged and presented, extremely comfortable accommodation and relaxing surroundings, the most friendly and accommodating hosts, Nigel and Una. They couldn't have been more helpful to me in my capacity as not only a guest but duty photographer. Highly recommended.

I have just returned from a close friend’s wedding at Awberry Farm and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The entire weekend was lovely, thanks in large part to Una and Nigel. They were brilliant, kind, and incredibly helpful throughout our stay. I stayed in one of the rooms on-site, which was warm and very comfortable. It had an excellent shower and I especially loved the thoughtful touches, like the fresh daffodils on the windowsill. We were also very well looked after by the Six Bells pub, where we enjoyed a delicious meal on Friday evening and a fantastic breakfast Saturday and Sunday mornings. The whole wedding weekend has been an absolute joy. I would 100% recommend Awberry Farm

Lovely barn and nice setting, they had problems with sound in the ceremony and really needed a microphone to enable people sitting towards the back to hear clearly, also a cable to connect the music rather than relying on Bluetooth would have stopped the sound cutting out. The venue was full. The catering staff struggled to serve people quickly, but the food was excellent.
Response from the owner:Hi Matt, it was nice to meet you on Saturday, and I’m pleased to hear you enjoyed the Barn’s atmosphere and food! We’re sorry the ceremony sound wasn’t as clear as it could have been for you. While a microphone is always available for couples’ use, we completely respect when couples prefer not to use it. We’ll also be reviewing our audio setup to enhance the experience for everyone. We’re delighted you enjoyed the food! On busier days, service timings can occasionally be extended, but we’re working closely with our catering team to improve this further. Thank you again for your feedback. As a new venue, we truly value insights like yours to help us continue improving. Una

Wonderful stay at Awberry Farm for an event this weekend. Filled with fun, fizz and dancing the night away in the gorgeous barn. The hosts are lovely and it is clear they pay so much attention to detail. We were able to recover from the fun in the gorgeous bedrooms, each with their own en-suite. I couldn’t have wished for a better place or way to celebrate. I can’t wait to visit again soon, having booked it for my own special day this year.
Response from the owner:Meg, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. Having accommodation on site is a real plus for our guests. We look forward to hosting your special day soon!

Awberry Farm, I’d highly recommend. We attended a wedding at Awberry Farm and it was truly amazing. From the very start of the day when we met in the courtyard to be served tea/coffee and croissants, to the wedding ceremony held under a beautifully flower decorated pergola. We were then served a fantastic warm meal in the most perfect of settings in the Barn. We had a great time. Una and Nigel were the perfect hosts and no detail was too small, even down to flip-flops for the tired feet after dancing the night away.
Response from the owner:Ethna, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We are delighted to hear that you had a most enjoyable day and enjoyed our hospitality. Una

We got married at Awberry Farm in Aug 24 and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. The veue is stunning and was a real wow factor when we first visited and for our guests on the big day. Receiving guests before the ceremony in the courtyard with coffee and pastries was a lovely way to start the day. It allowed guests to arrive over a period of time, the groom and ushers receiving guests and directing them easily ensuring everyone was in in the right place at the right time. The ceremony was magical amongst the wooden beams of the barn. There were plenty of places for photographs in the garden of the main house and the surrounding fields. We had close family photos by the Owl Tree overlooking the rolling hills surrounding Beenham. Nigel and Una were very helpful providing valuable advise and accommodating to our requests and needs. I would highly recommend Awberry Farm as a wonderful venue for your big day.
Response from the owner:Hi Sarah, Thanks very much for your lovely words about Awberry Farm. It was a real pleasure to host your wedding with Tom and all your family and friends here in lovely rural Berkshire. Una & Nigel
