Summer is the perfect time to step away from the office, bring your team together, and celebrate the people behind your business. Whether you're rewarding employees, entertaining clients, marking a company milestone or simply making the most of the warmer months, a corporate summer party offers the opportunity to connect in a more relaxed and memorable setting.
At Oxleaze Barn, nestled in the heart of the Cotswolds, we offer an exclusive countryside venue where businesses can create bespoke summer events that feel a world away from the boardroom.
Why Choose a Countryside Venue?
Swapping meeting rooms for rolling countryside instantly changes the atmosphere. Fresh air, open spaces and beautiful surroundings encourage people to relax, socialise and enjoy spending time together.
Our beautifully restored Cotswold stone barn sits on a working family farm, offering a unique blend of rustic character and modern comfort. With exclusive use of the venue, your team can enjoy the day without interruption, making the experience feel truly special.
Exclusive Hire, Tailored to Your Business
No two companies are the same, which is why every corporate event at Oxleaze Barn is tailored to your needs.
Whether you're planning an informal afternoon barbecue, an elegant summer dinner, a product launch or a full day of team-building followed by evening celebrations, our flexible spaces can be adapted to suit your vision.
Exclusive hire means the venue is yours for the day, giving you complete freedom to create an event that reflects your company culture and objectives.

Guests can enjoy drinks and relax in the gardens or gather for lawn games between courses. The peaceful rural setting provides plenty of opportunities for informal networking, team bonding and simply enjoying a summer's day together.
Many businesses choose to include outdoor activities such as:
Garden games and friendly competitions
Team-building experiences
Live acoustic music
Cocktail or wine-tasting sessions
Outdoor dining and barbecues
Evening fire pits as the sun sets
Seasonal Food Everyone Will Enjoy
Great food is at the heart of every successful celebration.
We work with a selection of trusted catering partners who create delicious seasonal menus using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients wherever possible.
From relaxed sharing feasts and wood-fired pizzas to elegant three-course dinners or summer barbecues, your menu can be designed to suit the style of your event.
Complement your dining with refreshing cocktails, local beers, sparkling wine or a carefully selected drinks package.

Oxleaze Barn offers flexible indoor and outdoor spaces, allowing your event to flow naturally throughout the day.
Begin with welcome drinks outside, move indoors for dining or presentations, then finish the evening with live music, dancing or entertainment under the warm glow of the barn's lighting.
The combination of characterful architecture and beautiful countryside creates an atmosphere that's both professional and relaxed.
