About this space

The Barn, Marquee & Patio is an event space in The Sun Inn that functions as a compact, music-friendly pub room offering an intimate, close-up setting for live performance.

Design: The room has exposed timber beams, a wooden floor and painted brick walls hung with framed prints; low ceilings, wall sconces and string lights create close sight lines and an informal layout.

Features: The room includes a PA system and speakers, permission to play your own music or bring a DJ, a clear area suitable as a dance floor, and Wi‑Fi; furniture can be arranged for mixed seated and standing use.

Ideal for: Intimate social groups seeking a relaxed, music-centred gathering that combines seated conversation with a standing, dance-friendly area.

What sets it apart: A private marquee and patio adjoin the indoor room, allowing hire to extend across covered outdoor and open-air areas.
