The Barn
PENDLE HILL DURING COVID-19. Due to continued public health concerns, the Pendle Hill campus will be closed to conference groups until the virus is contained. We will announce our opening date on our website and e-newsletter at least two months prior to welcoming visitors. Until we know our opening date, we will not be able to accept any new Conference Service reservations for dates prior to September 1, 2021. If you are interested in dates after September 1, 2021 or have any questions about Conference Services at Pendle Hill, please send them to conferences@pendlehill.org and the Conference Sales Coordinator will respond in due course. Thank you for your patience and understanding in these times.
Built on what was once an apple orchard, the Barn is centrally located on the Pendle Hill campus near the dining room, libraries, art studio, gardens, and the perimeter walking path. The Barn offers a simple and inviting flexible multi-use space with hardwood floors and convenient ground-level entrance access.
Some areas are handicap accessible. Meeting room capacity: 130.
