Durhamstown Castle's Barn

Our beautiful converted stone barn, dating from the 1800's. It’s 90 feet long and 30 feet wide.Perfect for a Wedding, a jamboree or corporate training. Original timber beams with exposed cut stone walls and yet thoroughly modern kitchens and bathrooms. Lovely atmospheric photos by the famous Ivor Prickett documentary photographer adorn the walls. Just so.

The space
It’s been through several incarnations - originally built as part of the courtyard. This would have house workers on the farm, horses, cattle, sheep and workshops. It was then re built as a model milking parlour sometime in the last century. When we bought it over 20 years ago it had been converted into a riding stables for a school. We kept horses ourselves for a while but as the birds flew the nest and the animals were sold off, we found running it was more of a headache than anything. So we took out all the stables, stripped off the plaster and revealed lovely semi-cut stone walls with gorgeous brick surrounds. It was a labor of love & everyone has such a great time here!
