The Flying Fish Barn enjoys an elevated, peaceful, rural position in the heart of South Somerset. Surrounded by fields with stunning views across to The Blackdown Hills, yet just 5 mins from the A303 and 10 mins from the M5 making it very accessible from all over the country.

Our wedding barn is registered for civil ceremonies, meaning you can have the convenience of ceremony and reception all in one place.
Our barn is fully self-contained with its own bar, restrooms, and garden.

We have 8 large en-suite rooms (2 accessible) to accommodate you and your guests (and can recommend additional accommodation nearby).

Additionally, we have a charming country pub, The Flying Fish, on-site, giving you and your guest's options to explore throughout the day.
