Pangdean Old Barn is located in the lush countryside of the South Downs in a one thousand acre working farm in Pyecombe. Conveniently located near Brighton, it is easily accessible and yet retains the remote, countryside feel. Its main attraction for couples getting married is its 18th century barn. Built in 1720, Pangdean Old Barn has been lovingly restored to offer a unique wedding or function venue and is THE perfect backdrop for your wedding photography.

In fact the entire venue is amazing for your wedding photography. My couple Xanthe and Alessandro wanted their wedding photography to have a relaxed natural feel - and photography that reflected the absolute gorgeousness of this beautiful wedding venue.

Xanthe was able to make use of the owners house (The Old Farmhouse) next to the venue, to get ready in, and to hide as Alessandro and all the guests started arriving! As a wedding photographer I ADORE period properties and its convenience to the venue meant I could sneek in and get some intimate moments of the bride and her bridal party.
