Weekend Wedding Celebrations
Naturally Romantic
Celebrate your wedding in a way that feels truly meaningful at Hen Camp. While ceremonies take place at a nearby Registry Office, Hen Camp offers the perfect setting to gather afterwards with your closest friends and family for a relaxed weekend of celebration, connection and unforgettable memories.
Surrounded by nature, it’s a place to slow down, switch off from the rush of everyday life and spend quality time together around campfires, under the stars and in beautiful glamping comfort.
Country Charm Weddings
At Hen Camp, weddings are about more than just one day, they’re about bringing people together.
Escape the rat race and enjoy a laid-back countryside retreat where loved ones can reconnect, laugh, relax and celebrate at their own pace.
Combining back-to-basics simplicity with thoughtful glamping luxury, Hen Camp creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere where lifelong memories are made with the people who matter.
Countryside Love Stories
Why limit your wedding to a single day when you can enjoy a full weekend together?
At Hen Camp, you have exclusive use of the venue for two nights, giving you the flexibility to celebrate your way. Enjoy an evening with friends, welcome family the next day, or create your own unique schedule.
Our beautiful 18th Century barn is yours to use throughout your stay and looks stunning in every season. In autumn and winter, it's fully heated with a log burner and cosy Chesterfields, creating the perfect space to gather and celebrate. Accommodation is available for up to 24 guests, with additional rooms nearby if needed.
Timeless Rustic Elegance
With exclusive use of the site, you can style the barn exactly as you wish or keep things beautifully simple.
There's no corkage charge, so stock the DIY bar with your favourite drinks and make the most of the disco ball when it's time to dance.
Food is completely up to you too.
Choose street food, a catered meal, takeaway or self-catering, whatever suits your vision and budget.
Then gather around the fire pits for toasted marshmallows, laughter and memories under the stars.
Barn Wedding Bliss
Create a celebration that's relaxed, fun and completely personal.
Add experiences such as a sauna, wild swimming, archery or axe throwing, or simply enjoy quality time together in beautiful surroundings.
Families are welcome too, with space for lawn games, bouncy castles or a movie night for younger guests. Set beside a stunning lake with a picturesque jetty, Hen Camp provides the perfect backdrop for unforgettable photographs.

REVIEW OUR
Yes. Hen Camp is ideal for couples who want to turn their wedding into a relaxed weekend celebration rather than a single day. Set in the Staffordshire countryside near Uttoxeter and close to Derbyshire and the Peak District, Hen Camp offers exclusive use for two nights, allowing you to spend proper quality time with your closest friends and family. You can enjoy the 18th-century barn, campfires, glamping accommodation and countryside surroundings at your own pace.
Hen Camp is designed for wedding celebrations and accommodation rather than the legal wedding ceremony itself. Ceremonies take place at a nearby Registry Office, after which you can continue the celebrations at Hen Camp with your family and friends. This makes it a great option for couples looking for a beautiful countryside setting for their wedding reception, wedding weekend or post-ceremony celebration, without the formality of a traditional wedding venue.
Hen Camp can accommodate up to 24 guests onsite, making it particularly suited to intimate weddings, small weddings and wedding weekends with your closest friends and family. If you need accommodation for additional guests, there are further rooms available nearby. Having everyone together in one place means you can spend more time celebrating together rather than organising transport between separate hotels and venues.
Hen Camp offers exclusive use of the site for two nights, giving you plenty of flexibility to create your own wedding weekend. You have use of the beautiful 18th-century barn, glamping accommodation and outdoor spaces, with campfires and a picturesque lake and jetty providing a memorable countryside setting. You can also add experiences such as sauna sessions, wild swimming, archery and axe throwing.
Yes. Hen Camp gives couples much more flexibility than a traditional wedding venue. There is no corkage charge, so you can stock your own DIY bar with your favourite drinks. Food is also completely flexible: you can choose street food, professional catering, takeaway food or self-catering, depending on the style and budget of your wedding weekend. This makes Hen Camp particularly appealing if you want a wedding celebration that feels personal, informal and genuinely your own.

With an 18th-century barn, glamping accommodation, a lake and plenty of outdoor space, it offers a very different experience from a conventional hotel wedding.
