Historic exclusive-use Dorset wedding venue featuring a stunning medieval tithe barn, beautiful gardens and flexible indoor & outdoor ceremony spaces in a romantic countryside setting.

Set within the beautiful grounds of Hinton St Mary Estate, The Tithe Barn offers couples an exclusive-use countryside wedding venue full of charm, flexibility and character. The Grade II-listed medieval barn combines historic stone walls, vaulted timber ceilings and a spacious hall that can be styled entirely to suit your vision.

Licensed for both indoor and outdoor ceremonies, couples can choose to marry inside the barn, within the landscaped gardens, in the romantic stone Summerhouse, or even at nearby St Peter’s Church. The venue offers a true blank-canvas experience with dry-hire flexibility, allowing you to choose your own caterers, bar suppliers and décor for a completely personalised celebration.

The estate’s stunning grounds include sunken gardens, rose gardens, manicured lawns, a lily pond and hidden pathways, creating beautiful spaces for drinks receptions, marquee setups and wedding photography. The barn can host up to 120 guests for ceremonies and wedding breakfasts, with evening celebrations for up to 200 guests.

Couples also benefit from exclusive weekend hire, giving plenty of time to relax and celebrate across multiple days. On-site accommodation is available within charming estate cottages, while ample parking, pet-friendly options and disabled access help make the venue welcoming for all guests.
