We’re delighted at Circa Events to cater for the beautiful Gote Barn, located just outside Lewes in Sussex. A rustic Elizabethan gem, nestled away in the heart of the East Sussex countryside, it would make a truly idyllic venue to host your wedding day.
Gote Farm, owned and run by the Craig family for over 75 years, specialises in unpasteurized milk from their herd of Jerseys and excellent, naturally-reared, lamb both grazed on the meadows near Glynde. The Grade II Listed barn itself, with high vaulted ceilings has been around since around the 1600’s with many of the barns original features still intact.
Situated right in the heart of the Downs in the beautiful Sussex countryside, part of the Glyndebourne Estate, Gote Barn is 5 minutes from the center of Lewes and 20 minutes drive from Brighton.
The venue is not yet licensed for ceremonies for 2021 but there are a number of local churches and licensed premises locally for you to hold your ceremony.
