Rural wedding barns, hidden in the South Downs

Countryside wedding venue with space, light and views

Set on the Cissbury Estate in the South Downs, Cissbury Barns is a rural wedding barn for couples planning a relaxed, stylish countryside wedding in West Sussex. A private drive winds through open fields and woodland, leading to beautifully restored barns set high on the Downs with wide, open views and a real sense of space.

Here, everything flows easily from one part of the day to the next. Choose a light-filled barn ceremony or an outdoor wedding ceremony with sweeping views, then gather your guests for drinks in the walled gardens before moving into the Barns for dining and dancing. With its blend of character, comfort and natural beauty, Cissbury offers a setting that feels both romantic and effortlessly modern.
