The Barn

The Barn is Inch Hideaway’s signature indoor venue: a beautifully converted hay barn with soaring beams, reclaimed-wood walls, and enchanting fairy-light ambience. Surrounded by meadow and woodland, it’s the ideal space for weddings, yoga retreats, workshops, corporate team-building, milestone celebrations and intimate concerts.
