A DIY Venue

From milestone birthdays and anniversary celebrations to baby showers, workshops, retreats, community groups and children’s parties, our Barns have hosted all sorts of memorable events over the years.

Clyne Farm is a DIY venue, giving you the freedom to create an event that feels completely your own.

You’re welcome to choose your own suppliers, decorate the Barn and organise the day exactly as you wish.

Many customers love this flexibility because it allows them to focus on the things that matter most.

What’s Included?

✓ Use of your chosen Barn during your hire period
✓ Freedom to choose your own suppliers
✓ Flexibility to decorate the space

What’s Not Included?

Venue hire does not include event coordination, event management, security, first aid cover, dedicated event staff, housekeeping or cleaning services during your event.

It’s therefore worth planning ahead for things like managing suppliers, guest welfare and dealing with any practical issues that may arise during your celebration.

Food, Drink & Suppliers

You’re free to choose your own caterers and bar suppliers, whether that’s a food truck, buffet, grazing table, formal meal or something completely different.

We’re always happy to recommend local suppliers who have previously worked at Clyne Farm.

If alcohol is being sold rather than provided free of charge, either you or your chosen bar supplier will need to obtain a Temporary Event Notice (TEN) from Swansea Council.

All external suppliers should hold appropriate public liability insurance.
