How it started
The idea for expanding The Barns at Delbury Hall came in autumn 2024. The vision was to create a bright and modern space for wedding day dining, to add to our existing barn reception space, The Coach House. Plans were drawn up and building work started very quickly, with construction finished in April 2025. We’re so excited that The Orangery is now available to all our couples for their bookings.

Why you’ll love The Orangery at The Barns at Delbury Hall
One thing that makes The Barns at Delbury Hall so special is our stunning rural setting. Set within a grand country estate, we’re surrounded by acres of glorious Shropshire countryside, with gardens and fields as far as the eye can see. We wanted to create a wedding breakfast space that allows our couples and their guests to enjoy these magical views, whatever the weather – and The Orangery does just that.

Tucked away in a secluded spot on our estate, The Orangery has knockout views of the lake, Dovecote and Foxglove Garden. With floor-to-ceiling bifold doors, the glass structure is designed to let natural light pour in, making you and your guests feel like you’re dining in the middle of the most tranquil of country gardens.

When the sun shines, we can throw open the bifold doors, and when it rains, The Orangery transforms into an intimate and cosy space for your wedding breakfast and speeches. Cheers to that!

The Coach House Barn is the ultimate rustic-chic ceremony space, with a dramatic vaulted ceiling and exposed brickwork providing a spectacular backdrop to your wedding photos.
We also have a blissful outdoor ceremony space if you love the idea of an alfresco wedding. Say your vows under our wooden Pergola, nestled among our blooming Foxglove Garden. With the sound of birdsong, and overflowing flowerbeds bursting with colour and heady scents, it doesn’t get any more romantic than this.
