Cripps Barn is an 18th‑century Cotswold stone barn that now operates as a rural wedding and events venue near Bibury, in the Coln Valley, Gloucestershire. It is a restored stone barn with rustic beams, flagstone floors, and a large open fireplace, set in open countryside and woodland. Its cotswolds stone is typical of the area.
 
It is one of the early “party barns”: the Cripps family converted their original working farm barn into an events space around 1990–1999, long before rustic wedding barns became ubiquitous.
 
Interesting facts...
There are thousands of barns in the Cotswolds. they survive because they are adaptable from farming to other uses. Some are over a thousand years old.
 
The venue leans heavily into fire and flame: open hearths inside, a terrace bonfire and fire pits outside, and a kitchen known for whole barbecued lambs, large “sirloin bricks”, rotisserie meats and other open‑flame cooking. heavenly!
