Walton's Oak Barn

Formally an agricultural building it was moved to it's current site within the grounds of The English Wine Centre in 1982. It remains the centrepiece of the Annual English Wine & Regional Food Festival which is being held on the first weekend of September.

The barn is heated as necessary along with the marquee which is erected for the summer months. On fine days or evenings no opportunity is missed to make the most of the good weather and the large barn doors are open giving access to the lawns for reception drinks. This is a real favourite for the evenings when the sun sets over the mound of Firle beacon throwing its last rays across the lawns and into the barn.

The 17th Century Waltons Oak Barn can comfortably seat 50 up to 70 people and a further 180 seat can be provided with the addition of our marquee. The marquee is provided with matting, cream lining, heating, and uplighters for the evening.
