Venue Setting

A historic manor estate nestled on 30 acres of sprawling hills and stream fed meadows, surrounded by horse farms, in the heart of Frederick County, Maryland. This masterfully restored 1850's Greek Revival manor was once the home of Lady Ellen Thompson, presumed ghostwriter of the romance novel, Lorna Doone. At Glen Ellen Farm we provide the perfect balance of sophisticated charm and rustic elegance. A beautiful new country event venue with a one-of-a-kind setting for your unforgettable occasion.

Today Glen Ellen Farm is an outdoor, tented facility incorporating the use of the old barn ruin and a ceremony site near the stone springhouse and spring-fed pond, where visitors can relax immersed in the breathtaking beauty of the great outdoors and the historic estate. We tickle all the senses at Glen Ellen Farm. Smell the fragrant meadow of wildflowers. Hear the waves lap gently at the shore as the wind ripples over the pond. Say your vows with white sand beneath your feet. Delight in dishes perfumed with herbs grown in our garden. Awaken your senses and celebrate with us, making memories that last a lifetime.

Venue Features
The scene:
Nestled in a tranquil glen, the historic 30-acre estate overlooks Sugarloaf Mountain. The stone barn ruin with it's post and beam pergola offers the perfect setting for cocktails or a wedding ceremony. It overlooks the stream-fed pond and historic stone springhouse. As dusk descends, guests can enjoy the flickering light of a roaring fire in the stone firepit. The rolling grounds and stunning stonework connecting the different venue sites offer endless photographic opportunities.
Design:
Our lovingly restored barn ruin offers a magical setting to mingle with guests. The manor house, built in the 1850s from salvaged B&O railroad ties, includes a bridal suite floor furnished with sumptious antiques. The large stone steps and patio give the historic estate a timeless quality that celebrates the agrarian past, mingling rustic elegance with sophisticated charm.
