Corporate Hire
Tired of uninspiring venues? Barley Hall provides functional spaces in a stunning location - ideal for business launches, events, lunches, parties or just a single meeting. Barley Hall is available for exclusive hire throughout the year. Events can be hosted in the splendour of the Great Hall or the sumptuous atmosphere of the Parlour amid flickering candlelight.
The Hall also offers a useful meeting room for daytime or evening meetings, both of which can be combined with a reception, lunch or dinner at the Hall.
Parties
Want to host a Christmas party with a difference or an evening launch with extra sparkle? Book Barley Hall and you will be assured of an event that you, your company, and your clients will remember for years to come.

Parties held in this remarkable high-beamed room, which is dressed with hand painted hangings and features a decorative medieval tiled floor will certainly be one that you and guests remember for years to come.

The Parlour
Celebrations within the Parlour will enjoy an exceptional atmosphere lit by glistening candles highlighting the rich red wall hangings in this superb room.

The Gallery
When booking the Parlour, you can give yourself additional capacity by using the Gallery at no extra charge. The Gallery features windows that overlook the Great Hall and is located next to the Parlour on the first floor.
Although we do not recommend hosting a disco at Barley Hall there are many other entertainment options to choose from that will add to the atmosphere for your party. Recorded music can be played in any of the rooms or you could hire live musicians for your event. We can recommend a range of musicians from string quartets to medieval players.
