The Barn at Thunderbridge
A New Era of Weddings
The Woodman Inn has long been a cherished home for Yorkshire weddings. Now, we're creating something even more extraordinary - The Barn at Thunderbridge.
This stunning, purpose-built wedding barn set among the woodlands and countryside of our beloved Thunderbridge Gardens has been designed with romance in its very bones and to be the most beautiful wedding setting in Yorkshire.
Exclusive Use Venue
19 On-Site Bedrooms
Upto 120 Day Guests
Something Beautiful is Taking Shape
Opening Summer 2027, The Barn at Thunderbridge will be a fully exclusive use wedding venue which is yours and yours alone on your wedding day with no other couples & nothing to distract from the celebration you've always imagined.
Soaring vaulted ceilings. Warm oak beams. Golden candlelight that fills the evening air. An exclusive setting where up to 120 guests gather for your wedding breakfast and 200 dance into the night.
Beautiful Countryside Surroundings
Surrounded by woodland, a brook gently winding through the grounds and open skies above, Thunderbridge Gardens is fully licensed for outdoor ceremonies, so you can exchange your vows with nothing but nature around you.
This is what a rustic wedding venue in Yorkshire should truly feel like.
Built for every part of your day
Opening Summer 2027
Worth the Wait
To make way for this transformation, our wedding venue will be closed from January through to late Summer 2027.
But the most extraordinary days deserve the most extraordinary planning and we're already welcoming enquiries and early bookings for our launch season.
During the Renovation
We're still very much open for viewings and there's more to see than you might expect. Walk the site, meet the team, and experience the Woodman Inn hospitality we're known for.
The pub & restaurant remains open throughout our transformation, so come and catch a glimpse of the magic taking shape.
Be the first to celebrate
Our Summer 2027 launch dates are already attracting interest and with good reason.
The Barn at Thunderbridge will be one of Yorkshire's most celebrated wedding venues and availability for our opening season will be limited.
If you're dreaming of a late 2027, 2028 or 2029 wedding, we'd love to hear from you. Share your date, tell us your vision, and let's begin creating something extraordinary together.
