Celebrate your special day in our idyllic setting, beneath the Selborne Hanger of the South Downs National Park. Gilbert White’s House & Gardens provides the perfect British country venue with a variety of informal yet distinctive spaces to hire for your ceremony, reception or party.
Enjoy your day in the 16th century Hampshire Barn, with glorious views over tranquil meadows, or for a more intimate ceremony & reception, the historic house and White’s Bistro. The Great Mead affords a charming location for an outdoor reception. Whether this is a marquee, teepee, bell tent, etc. you will be surrounded by meadow with views to the house and across parkland.
When it comes to barn wedding venues in Hampshire, then I have to say this is one of my absolute favourite! The field outside make a perfect backdrop for my couple’s photos and it’s such a safe wedding venue for children with lots of space to run around.
I was so excited when Ben and Sophie contacted me to work at this country Alton wedding venue again. They took a risk and planned their ceremony outside with a wonderful view of the South Downs Nationa Park. Just before the ceremony it started raining but luckily it didn’t take too long until they had their dream ceremony as they planned.
The barn at Gilbert White’s House is so charming. The beams and fairy light wall give it such a cosy feel. They had their drinks reception outside the barn in field and they moved to the barn for their wedding breakfast. Guests ate before laughing and crying through the brilliant speeches.
With a gorgeous sunny afternoon, I manged to take some sunset photos of my couple with beautiful soft light.
If you are looking for a rustic barn wedding venue in Hampshire, you should definitely visit this beautiful country wedding venue.
