Nestled within acres of countryside, The Lake at Barston is conveniently located less than 10 minutes from Solihull, Coventry and Birmingham. Boasting impressive views over the lawns, flower beds and large Barston Lake, The Lake at Barston can cater for weddings of up to 200 loved ones. As well as offering a picturesque setting for your big day, you can also take full advantage of the newly refurbished Restaurant available exclusively for you and your guests.

Celebrate in style
The Restaurant is the venue’s largest space and can seat 180 friends and family. Featuring panoramic views of Barston Lake, there is a dancefloor big enough for 60 guests at a time, a stage for bands and a hot and cold food area for buffets, carverys or hog roasts. The room has the benefit of an adjacent annex, which is semi-private and can seat 40 guests or be used as a break-out area for additional seating, a photo booth, a sweet cart or a gift table.

The Hampton Boardroom and The Ryton End Suite can be used for civil ceremonies. The Boardroom features a large table that can seat 24 of your nearest and dearest. The Ryton End Suite can be set up in many ways: theatre style can hold up to 60 loved ones, and long or round tables can be used for up to 40 people for private dining.

We love...
The venue’s grounds and lake views, which look stunning in photographs.

The existing laws have a further requirement that couples must ensure the individual officiating their wedding ceremony is either an authorised religious minister or a civil registrar.
