The Mill Barns
Oak Framed Wedding Venue
The Grounds
The Mill Barns Wedding Venue sets the standard for barn wedding venues in the UK. This iconic waterfront venue offers couples exclusive-use of three magnificent oak framed wedding barns, luxury onsite accommodation, eight acres of mature landscaped gardens, mesmerising water features and a unique walkway taking in three stunning outdoor terraces.
Formerly the site of a 17th century water mill there are not many barn wedding venues that offer such a picturesque waterfront setting. On the Shropshire, Worcestershire border close to Warwickshire and Staffordshire in the West Midlands, The Mill Barns sit on the banks of a key tributary to the River Severn surrounded by glorious English countryside.
With eight acres of beautiful established gardens to enjoy, your wedding photographer will be spoilt for choice when it comes to finding inspiring backdrops for your photographs.
A Grand Entrance
You’ll never forget your first glimpse of this architecturally stunning wedding venue which looks as if it’s floating on water. It’s a visual treat with double the impact as the rustic, oak-framed barns are reflected in the sunlit waters surrounding the venue.
After parking in the private car park you’ll wander over our elegant footbridge, poised over shimmering waters and make your way through the grand double door into the majestic expanse of The Mill Stone Barn.
The Ceremony Barn
The intricate structure of the exposed timber beams inside The Mill Wheel Barn coupled with the dramatic, glazed aspect overlooking The Mill Pond, sets a truly unforgettable scene for your wedding ceremony. You’ll be bathed in natural light as you exchange your vows and your guests are sure to hear every word resonate in this incredible space.
The Mill Wheel Barn is licensed for civil weddings for up to 170 people but our flexible seating arrangements ensure it’ll look just right for smaller, more intimate weddings.
Outdoor Weddings
The ultimate in all-weather barn wedding venues, the three interconnecting wedding barns ensure guests never have to step outside if they don’t want to…but if the sun shines on your big day you can hold your ceremony in the open air on The Terrace overlooking the tranquil waters of The Mill Pond itself.
Your guests will be seated on The Terrace which is an approved outdoor ceremony location, licensed for outdoor weddings.
Your Drinks Reception
No corkage barn wedding venues give you the option to supply all your own drinks for your drinks reception.
Our fantastic waiting-on staff will circulate with trays of your chosen celebratory tipple throughout the drinks reception. Your wedding guests can enjoy mingling in The Mill Stone Barn or out on The Mill Pond Terrace following your ceremony while you take the opportunity to explore the grounds with your photographer.
The Wedding Breakfast Barn
Following the drinks reception your guests are invited to take their seats in The Mill Pond Barn for your delicious wedding breakfast meal. This stunning oak-framed barn overlooks the shimmering waters of The Mill Pond; its flexible seating makes this a warm and inviting space whether you’re inviting 25 or 170 guests to your wedding.
Your wedding breakfast is a special meal, shared with those you love; our ‘Design Your Own’ philosophy ensures you can choose a wedding menu that you and your guests will love.

With its stylish bar, oak-sprung dance floor and band-ready stage, The Mill Pond Barn provides an awesome setting for the party of a lifetime. Let the ambience and the music inspire your guests to strut their stuff on the dancefloor while you soak up the heady mix of joyful celebration, delicious drinks, tasty evening food and a moonlit embrace out on the terrace.
There’s plenty of space on the dance floor, a stage for your live band or DJ and our dazzling Mill Bar will keep guests lubricated with a fabulous selection of competitively priced drinks, well into the night.
