Dedicated Service In A Special Rural Venue

Our two restored barns and 70 acres of peaceful estate provide a wonderful setting for all kinds of private events and celebrations.

Combining classic countryside aesthetics with outstanding modern facilities, Blackstock Country Estate offers something pretty unique. Each of our barns can take up to 200 guests, and can be hired separately or together. Our grounds are full of easy paths and walking routes which offer a great way for your guests to get a bit of fresh air.

We partner with Fine Foods Catering to provide delicious bespoke food and drink for all occasions. We can do finger food, BBQs and hog roasts, and even full five course meals. We’ll work with you to create a bespoke menu, or you can choose from one of our pre-set options.

We can assist you with seating plans and themed decorations, and can also help you source and set up audio-visual equipment.

We’re easily reached by road or rail – Polegate train station is just a ten-minute taxi ride away, and we can recommend a few local hotels and B&Bs should any guests wish to stay.

Every party is individually priced according to your budget, number of guests, day of the week and time of the year. Please contact us for a competitive quote.

We couldn’t recommend this stunning venue highly enough. TOP WEDDING VENUE! 🥹♥️" Hannah Everley, June 2024
