ABOUT US

THE WORKING FARM

Great Blaenawe Farm was bought by Andrew and Sally Johnstone in 1980. They were drawn in by the most beautiful country and views. Since then their 3 sons Will, Marcus and James have diversified the farm and now run the most beautiful and romantic shabby chic venue for miles - the Sugar Loaf Barn. The farm is still very much a working farm, producing 600 lambs per year, so book your wedding in early May and you will have the joy of spring lambs popping up all around you.

 

As we are a family run business you will always get a warm and personal experience.

YOUR WEDDING

Our weddings take place in our 32m x 24m agricultural barn perched on the side of the Sugar Loaf mountain.
The barn is cleverly zoned with heated seating areas, toilets, huge stage, dance floor, bar, catering and dining areas. . White washed floors, exposed steels, huge barn doors, a bespoke hand made bar, light fittings and tables all contribute to the chicest and most authentic farm wedding possible.
