Haughley Park ltd

Haughley Park offers event organisers a distinctive setting in the Suffolk countryside, centred on its restored, Grade II listed Haughley Park Barn. Set within a private country estate of around 250 acres, the barn combines original oak beams and exposed brickwork with a relaxed atmosphere. The surrounding gardens, mature trees and parkland provide an appealing backdrop for ceremonies, receptions and photographs, while the venue is also available for corporate functions, birthdays, Christmas parties and other private celebrations.

For weddings, couples can book exclusive use of the barn over an extended three-day period on selected Saturdays or Wednesdays. The venue can host civil ceremonies for up to 100 guests, a wedding breakfast for up to 120, and evening celebrations for as many as 240. Couples can shape the day around their preferences and choose their own suppliers, with catering selected from the venue’s approved list. An evening bar service is provided as part of wedding hire, and daytime drinks can be arranged under the venue’s no-corkage policy.

A refurbished Victorian farmhouse on the estate offers five bedrooms for the wedding party and guests. The setting is also suited to organisers seeking a private, flexible space for business events or celebrations, with parking and straightforward access from the A14. Haughley Park is a privately owned estate, so access is by arrangement rather than general public admission. The team also stages selected public events during the year, but the barn’s main appeal for event planners is its bookable venue hire amid peaceful grounds.
