Bandpitt Barn is a picturesque group of totally restored Mendips stone buildings near East Harptree, ten miles from the Centre of Bristol. The barns are bordered by green fields in an area designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty by Natural England.

They lay at the second highest point of The Mendips, surrounded by well-known beauty spots. Cheddar Gorge, Chew Valley Lake, Charterhouse, Priddy, Blagdon Lake, Burrington Combe and England’s smallest city, Wells are all just a short drive away.

The barns sit within a private courtyard, invisible from outside the venue making it the ideal place for confidential meetings, training or product launch. Complete privacy is assured and you won’t need to share facilities like parking, toilets or the bar area with other guests because on the day of your booking you have exclusive use of the venue.

On one side of the courtyard The Former Milking Parlour is now a conference/dining room for up to 60 guests. Shutters close to give privacy from your private bar area. There is a good Wi-Fi access point here as well as the latest Viewsonic Interactive Touchscreen. It has every connection type you might require. There is also an amp with speakers with microphone for delegate speakers, or music. It has USB, Blue Tooth connections.

This leads into The Garden Room, perfect for small sub-groups with access to the South facing Garden and Lawn, ideal for group pictures or outdoor product photography.

Also off of the Courtyard is a fully fitted commercial kitchen which has direct access to the Dining Room. You are welcome to bring in your own staff to use the kitchen or use Outside Caterers. We have caterers who will give you menu options to suit your budget.

The big barn is the exciting and unique one which your team will enjoy and talk about for a long time. Inside it we have fully restored a 1947 Fairground Ride, ‘The Dodgems’. These are loved by children of all ages, but especially grown up ones!

If you need a coach or mini-buses to bring your delegates and take them home we can arrange that for you.
