In the heart of the South Downs, Hollycombe Home Farm offers an authentic and rustic farm and barn wedding experience. Surrounded by breathtaking views of rolling hills, lush greenery and tranquil nature, we provide an intimate, family-run venue with farm to fork dining.
As a true working farm using regenerative farming practices, we offer a personalised experience for all our couples. Whether you choose to marry under the open sky in our walled garden or celebrate your reception in our beautifully restored Rusty Barn, every detail of your day will reflect the charm and authenticity of farm life.
Our iconic Dutch barn, serves as the heart of your wedding reception, seating up to 120 guests on solid wood banquet tables, with ample space for dancing and live music.
At Hollycombe, we pride ourselves on sustainable, farm-to-table dining. With seasonal ingredients grown on-site and 100% pasture-fed lamb and beef from our own fields, every dish reflects the flavours of the land. Our chef, Charlie, uses wood fires to cook your wedding feast, bringing out the best in our organic produce and locally sourced ingredients. From formal sit-down meals to casual canapés and late-night snacks, we’ll work with you to create a menu that suits your tastes and vision.

From the moment we visited Hollycombe, we knew it was a special place and ultimately where we would want to have our wedding.
When we arrived at Hollycombe we met Beth who made us feel immediately part of the family. The atmosphere at the farm is one of warmth, we felt accepted as friends and made to feel comfortable to ask questions and make our day the way we wanted it to be.
The rusty barn and the views across the surrounds from there are beautiful all year round, and the flexibility offered by Edd, Beth and the team meant we had real options about how to celebrate, even if the weather wasn’t brilliant which was a genuine possibility in April!
One of the beauties of the farm is that they work with producers who are right on the doorstep; from organic veg, meat from the farm itself and flowers grown in their kitchen garden. Having local produce and businesses at our wedding was something which mattered to us and was entirely possible at Hollycombe.
Charlie is an incredible chef with an amazing team and the food truly surpassed our and our guests’ expectations; we now find it difficult to eat beef from anywhere else!
On the day of our wedding, the team at Hollycombe looked after us as if they were part of the wedding whilst being professional and making sure we had everything we needed. Edd even stored our tandem bike (for our entrance) and let us use the mountain bike trails the next day.
Since the wedding, we’ve heard from every single person how much they loved the individual approach, the relaxed atmosphere and the outstanding food. Lots of them have been back to visit the farm for events since.
We would not have changed a single thing.

Thank you so so much again for everything. I’ve said this a million times but honestly it was the best day of our lives and so happy that we were able to do it at my favourite place. The day was perfect and the team you have there, Beth, Dan, Charlie and everyone else, were absolutely brilliant. All such good people who were so helpful and loved getting to know them. Everyone has been telling us what an unreal venue it was. Honestly best day of our lives, couldn’t have chosen a more special place to celebrate. Such a lovely cabin stay too! Can’t wait to come back.
