Our Vision; Your Location
The Couple
Behind the Barn
Welcome to Bloomin Lovely Barn!
We wanted to create a space where families and friends can get together for those special occasions and life milestones - whether that's a 40th or 90th birthday party, a babyshower, a hen do or even a small wedding. I (Jenna) have a marketing and events background and have always wanted to host with a holiday let and small venue after working for many years with wedding venues.
We have a passion for preserving the historical charm of the barn while incorporating modern design elements. Each detail has been carefully considered to create a welcoming atmosphere that respects our building's heritage.
Discover the perfect blend of history and comfort at Bloomin Lovely Barn, where thoughtful vintage rustic design meets the beauty of nature. We've enjoyed sourcing vintage and eclectic furniture over the years and we hope you enjoy them too!
We hope you enjoy your stay.
