Along the River Coln in central Cotswolds countryside, Cripps Barn is a converted agricultural building that functions as an event venue.
The structure itself is a former working farm building that's been restored in traditional stone while retaining its original character and feel. This isn't a place for casual visitors or overnight guests—it's purpose-built for hosting weddings and celebrations, with spacious interiors and contemporary facilities suited to larger events.
The barn stands in the small village of Coln Rogers, surrounded by the rolling landscape that characterises this part of the Cotswolds. As it's a private venue, you'll only experience it if you're attending an event there. That said, its location makes it a useful reference point for exploring the broader area. Cirencester lies a short drive away with its remarkable Roman heritage, while Bibury's famous Arlington Row cottages—all honey-coloured stone—are equally accessible. Fairford and Northleach sit within easy reach too, making either worth visiting if you're in the region. If you're attending a celebration at the barn and want to spend time discovering the villages and countryside that define the Cotswolds, the location works well as a jumping-off point for exploring what surrounds it.
