We knew Lapstone was the place for us as soon as we viewed it- from the venue and grounds, to the accommodation, staff and DELICIOUS food, swell as catering for all dietary requirements with no fuss. The perfect place to get married, thankyou to all at Lapstone for making our special day so memorable!

Planning from start to finish was made easy and all the staff were really friendly. Huge thank you to Emily for being so helpful throughout the planning and helping to make sure everything went so smoothly on the day. Food was delicious, better than I thought was possible for the number of people. The venue is so attractive and I would highly recommend having a look around as we knew instantly this was the place for us. Would also highly recommend staying in the cottage on site as this was lovely, we woke up to a view of the lovely garden with Pheasants wandering around and only a 2 minute walk away so was very convenient. Thank you to all the staff who contributed to making our big day so special!

Honestly cannot recommend Lapstone Barn enough! As soon as we walked in, we knew it was the wedding venue for us.The venue itself is just gorgeous, at every angle. Lapstone really needs very little décor to look absolutely stunning! Every room is beautiful, well-maintained, and homely feeling. There are so many little touches that make it feel really special. The bridal suite is stunning and a great size, with plenty of space for a group of girls getting ready! Plus, the lighting across the entire venue is fab. A lot of love and care goes into this venue, and you can tell!The Farmhouse and Cottage onsite are also incredible spaces, cosy and luxurious at the same time! We (and our guests) loved staying there; the views of the grounds are idyllic.The Lapstone staff are also 5*! Emily, our wedding coordinator, was incredible from start to finish. Very responsive on emails, always happy to help with endless questions, and so accommodating. On the day itself she was super organised, knew exactly what we wanted, and was also a comforting presence for us. The catering/bar staff were equally wonderful! Clare, who looked after us, was just lovely - so attentive and kind. Just amazing service all round. We cannot fault any of the staff. We had so many comments on how lovely they all were from our guests too! All went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having a good time, and we are very grateful for their hard work.The food is also *incredible*. We are big foodies, and after the tasting event we knew our menu would be delicious - we looked forward to eating the meal again for months! All of our guests enjoyed the food throughout the day, and we loved hearing all the compliments on the menu choices too. The portions were also perfect, and we saw many happy faces going in for seconds with the side dishes. Drinks-wise we were over the moon too - we had a few specific requests for the daytime which were worked with wonderfully, and we loved the choices we had throughout the wedding. This was again something we had lots of lovely comments on during the day! The bar is also excellent for the evening drinks! Very classy, well-stocked, and great service.Lapstone will always hold a special place in our hearts. Thank you so much to everyone for making our wedding day so special, we deeply appreciate it <3

I always have the most amazing time photographing and videoing at Lapstone Barn. The building itself is beautifully finished to the very last detail, with lots of bright and clean spaces for bridal prep and groom prep. There is also another house on site, which is beautiful as a backdrop for group photos. They have fields all around, which are perfect for sundown shots and are sometimes filled with poppies! The staff here are always wonderful to work with and I always feel very welcome. They bend over backwards for their couples and suppliers too. I can't wait to shoot here again in the Summer!

Me & my husband recently had our wedding here. We were so pleased with the venue and all our guests were commenting how amazing it was. We had people travel from America for the wedding and they also were blown away by the venue. The service from all staff including Emily co ordinator was amazing. We can’t thank you all enough. Thank you again’

We had our wedding at Lapstone back in October and had such a wonderful day. The venue and grounds are absolutely beautiful - the perfect blank canvas for however you want your day to look, with its own unique features which set it apart. So many of our guests were impressed with the venue, and commented particularly on how delicious the food was. With my husband being coeliac and our wedding party including quite a few different dietary requirements, we were very impressed with how effectively this was managed. Our coordinator, Emily, was so friendly and calm, and made sure everything ran beautifully on the day. Thank you, Lapstone!

We got married at Lapstone Barn just over a week ago. We had the wonderful Mylie as our wedding co-ordinator but we dealt with lots of the staff during our time there and they were all lovely! We booked our wedding in September so we didn’t have long until the big day. The team were so helpful and offered lots of great suggestions and check lists for us, it really kept us on track. The barn itself is stunning! To us it felt like home and so welcoming. My husband welcoming people to the venue on the day was so stress free and he said it was like inviting people into our home which I loved. The whole day was perfection and ran to time which doesn’t happen too often in events. We wish we could do it all again. Our guests had the best time, it really was a fairytale. It exceeded all of our expectations and dreams.Thank you Lapstone you were fantastic!Best wishes Claire and Rob (The Lyon’s)

What a magical day we had for our November wedding. Everything went so smoothly; the team were absolutely incredible and were busy behind the scenes making sure our day ran like clockwork. Kat and all of the staff at Lapstone were friendly, professional, calm and answered all of my (many) questions. I wish we could do it all again. The best venue and team… thank you for everything.

We cannot thank the team at Lapstone Barn enough for everything they did to support us, not only on our Wedding day but also in the months leading up to it.The team were all so attentive, friendly and accommodating, helping to ensure each little detail of our special day was right. The coordination, organisation and preparation made me feel so calm on the day as the Bride, which really helped to settle my nerves.The venue and location - WOW; the venue is beautiful, and with it all dressed for the Wedding it seemed even more magical.It truly was the most memorable, magical and special day - we want to relive it again and again.Thank you to all at Lapstone Barn.

We had our wedding at Lapstone Barn back in June and I really can't recommend Lapstone enough! The day was completely perfect, the venue and outside areas are beautiful, we had so many guests comment how stunning it is, the food was all delicious but the biggest highlight for me was the staff. Abi was our wedding coordinator and she was brilliant, very organised and calm and we 100% trusted her with everything and the day ran so smoothly because of her (she even looked after our 1 year old during the ceremony). What I loved about Lapstone was how flexible they were, and how accomodating to make sure the day was personalised to us and exactly what we wanted. We were able to flex the typical food/drinks packages offered to accommodate our friends and family and we provided ale for our ale lovers and mocktails for our non drinkers rather than just the usual wine and prosecco. All in all, the best venue and we loved having our wedding here!

We really cannot recommend Lapstone highly enough, a really attentive, friendly, helpful venue. From last minute emails to changing dietary requirements (on the day), Agi was THE most wonderful wedding coordinator we could have ever asked for! Every single person we had contact with was truly a pleasure, we had comments all day about the wonderful venue, food, staff and atmosphere of the barn. We really would do it all over again if we could!!

We recently married at Lapstone Barn & had such an amazing wedding day. From our first visit to view the venue through to our actual wedding day everyone has been incredibly helpful & friendly. The barn itself is stunning for weddings in any season but as ours was an Autumn wedding the warm Cotswold stone & draped fairy lights produced a lovely cosy feel especially with the real fire lit in the gorgeous bar area. We stayed in the farmhouse the night before & the night of our wedding - the house is really comfortable with everything you could possibly need & is decorated & furnished beautifully. Thank you to all the staff who helped make our special day perfect.

Lapstone was the perfect venue for our recent wedding. It’s absolutely stunning yet still allows you to put your own special touches to the barn. We had the best day ever. Mylie was absolutely fantastic. So warm calm and lovely. She put us at ease and nothing was too much trouble. If any little issues arose Mylie would find the answer! The food was also incredible. The hayloft is the most beautiful room for the bridal party to get ready ahead of the big day. Lapstone has our hearts forever. Thanks guys for making our dreams come true!

Wow! My wedding day was INCREDIBLE and went like clockwork! I can't thank Kat enough for being such an amazing person to work with... planning a wedding with literally NO experience is very daunting, but she was so happy to answer all of my questions and was always happy to have a quick chat on the phone to clear up any unanswered questions! I put a lot of thought into the 'finer' details of my wedding and I definitely had a vision of how I wanted it all set up, and Kat executed it so perfectly, in fact it turned out even more beautiful than I ever could have imagined! All of the staff at Lapstone were just so kind and lovely, and definitely made the day feel very stress free. I was mostly worried the venue would feel too big for my wedding of only 38 adults and a couple of kids, but when everything was set up, and everyone had arrived, it felt absolutely perfect! Kat made sure I used the whole space of the venue as well as possible, and we made the most of all the best areas! Coming send to after being born... it truly was the best day of my life! Now only a memory but I have some beautiful pictures thanks to Owen Howells Photography. I wanted a fairy 'chilled' wedding and this venue certainly provided that. Everyone absoloutely loved the wedding and a lot of people said it was the most stunning wedding they have ever attended. So bigger isn't necessarily always better! Thanks again for our special day.

Lapstone Barn was everything we could've ask for and more. All the staff are incredible, and we are so thankful to all of them for helping our day to run so smoothly. The venue itself and the surroundings are gorgeous, and every one of our guests kept saying what a beautiful venue it was. The food was amazing! Again, everyone kept saying how much they enjoyed it. From start to finish, mine and my husbands experience with Lapstone Barn was faultless. Our wedding day was exactly what we hoped it would be, and then exceeded our expectations! Thank you Lapstone, for everything.

Perfect wedding venue in every sense of the word!!!! We chose this venue after visiting for the second time and came across a couple who were a few weeks away from getting married. They expressed how impressed they had been with the level of service and how flexible the venue had been with their requests in comparison to others. So we took the next step and booked this venue. The team Jo and Mylie were amazing at our wedding last weekend and hugely accommodating with all our requests in the lead up to the wedding, the FOOD was brilliant and tailored exactly as we asked. Many thanks to Ryan and the catering team! Cannot fault the team on the day they were on the ball and one step ahead at all times. My family have commented on the level of professionalism and care shown throughout the day. THANK YOU LAPSTONE BARN FOR MAKING OUR DAY SPECIAL!! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

We had the best day of our lives at Lapstone Barn. The location and the venue is absolutely breathtaking. The staff were so helpful and professional. Just being in the heart of the Cotswolds was magical enough, but to have such a special venue for our Wedding was the icing on the cake. Thank you for everything. We will forever be grateful.

Lapstone Barn was everything we wanted it to be for our wedding day. The staff were incredibly kind, thoughtful and professional, and thanks to them the stress of the day was infinitely reduced and we were able to enjoy the day to the absolute maximum. The planning phase was made easy, and communication with the Lapstone team was always rapid and invariably helpful and supportive. The venue was beautiful, and completely immune to the somewhat questionable weather. Thank you to the whole Lapstone team, and especially Kate and Claire who helped us throughout the day and evening - we could not have wished for better support. Leo & Caroline x

I went here for my son's wedding. It's a decent venue that works well for weddings. Different areas available and a good sized outside space for when the weather is good. Good bar area with friendly staff. I think there is an area upstairs which had a bedroom and bathroom etc but not 100% sure. Food was good quality and well cooked. Would recommend. Plenty of places to stay within a 10 minute drive and a few taxi firms too. We used pinpoint cabs which were super efficient.
