The Barn KT9

Fantastic experience: I’ve heard the phrase “I have found my tribe” used before but it really does apply to me. Since having children, I had struggled to stick to a gym routine until I was introduced to the Barn. It’s such a safe, friendly, fun but challenging and supportive community that Em has built up. There’s a class to suit everyone. The coaches are fantastic. I’d say just give it a go. Everything Em, Charlie & the team do is always top quality - the classes, talks, events (sports day!!), food, coffee & baristas, facilities, even the setting (where else can you watch the sun rise during an early morning class and see deer roaming?!) … it’s a real gem.

Fantastic experience: Wow what a fantastic place! It’s so different, unique and it’s really helped me to start working out!! I am now lifting weights, feeling good and it really sets me up for the day. I really LOVE the surroundings I am training in too. A gym on a farm - so fun! Watching sunrises and seeing deer on my drive in is so special and always gives me a smile.

Fantastic experience: Quiet. Still and only a short walk to the Elephants!

Fantastic experience: Great location,good coffee pastries,friendly service.Toilets available as well

Fantastic experience: The dreamiest! Honestly didn’t feel like we were anywhere near London. The bridleways are pleasant and serene, the onsite cafe sells delicious coffee, and the pitches are hugely capacious. Falling asleep to thunderstorms or the sounds of nearby geese, it was such an idyllic couple of days. Thank you Charlie and the team!

Fantastic experience: Lovely place to stop for a break after walking from Ashtead or Epsom common. Good quality coffee. Also sell cold drinks and cakes and do special partnerships with food companies on certain days of the week.

Positive experience: Expensive

Positive experience: Stopped for coffee didn't stay overnight. Lovely location on well used footpath network. Close to Ashstead Common. In a working farm.

Negative experience: Drove about 15 mins to check this place out and try the coffee but found out there is zero parking if you're not using the gym. So I couldn't. I was then accosted by an incredibly angry man for reversing into his drive to turn around who then threatened me while I had a 2 year old in the car. How is there no space for a car on such an expanse of land just to grab a coffee?

Negative experience: Lovely setting, but sadly they do not maintain it well. Only one toilet with a working lock, only one shower with hot water. Terrible signage for finding from the farm, not enough parking spaces, wheelbarrows too small to get stuff from the carpark to the campsite, no staff or check in procedure of any kind. I imagine it was built with love, not sure why they don't look after it!

Fantastic experience: Really great coffee hut to break up a walk across the Common. Great range of food - all looking homemade. Lots of seating too

Fantastic experience: What a magnificent place - feels like you're in middle of nowhere just minutes from London. A perfect escape! Make sure you book a sunset yoga class during your stay, it was breathtakingly beautiful and such a special experience.

Positive experience: Accessible through hiking routs through Epsom woods.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love this place, the staff are wonderful and the place is well kept and beautiful.

Fantastic experience: Love this place, so nice for a coffee and some food on a walk. Classes are great and the evening events are also fantastic in the amazing aircraft hanger space. Run by lovely people 5 stars.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful coffees, friendly atmosphere - a great spot for a family walk or cycle

Fantastic experience: Come here on a sunny day and thank yourself later - absolutely idyllic spot and lovely staff

Fantastic experience: The Barn is so much more than an amazing gym with excellent coffee. The team here are so welcoming and knowledgeable, and help every single person feel strong and confident. After two kids I feel proud to be the strongest and fittest I’ve ever been. Thank you!!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to The Barn KT9 now for almost 3 years and trained through 2 pregnancies. I cannot recommend this place enough! The coaches are amazing and made me feel so confident working out right up to my due date, lifting weights and staying strong. The gym is also such a community and I have made life long friends thanks to this place

Fantastic experience: My favourite place. Great gym with fantastic instructors

Fantastic experience: What a venue for any kind of event. I went for a 60th and if you decorate it right it's amazing. You have to hire a lot of stuff in like toilets but it works. BYOB.

Fantastic experience: The Barn KT9 is a magical place. Since I discovered it just over a year ago, I visit several times a week without fail - whether it's learning how to lift strong with the amazing PTs in the small class setting, doing deep yin practise under the stars, or eating the scrummy food truck offerings or pastries, it has become a haven in my otherwise busy life as a working mum of two. The community I've found and friendships I've made are priceless and Em and Charlie run the entire business with saviness, kindness and forward thinking. I can't wait to visit for many years to come!

Fantastic experience: I am so lucky to of found this Gym in the middle of such a gorgeous setting. I never stuck to going to a gym until I started at the Barn & now I feel like I’ve found my tribe. It’s so welcoming, encouraging & I look forward to going to every class. I’ve made friends and lifted weights I never would have attempted anywhere else. The trainers are fun, play banging playlists & support you from anything from getting personal bests to modifying things if you’re injured or pregnant . Not only that - it has the BEST coffee too!

Fantastic experience: We overlook Rushett Farm and The Barn. It is in a wonderful countryside setting with open fields next to Epsom Common (and 1000 acres of trails for walking and biking). It's a great place to pop by for a coffee and to explore Epsom Common and the surrounding countryside from. There are events on throughout the year....a countryside treasure.

Fantastic experience: Lovely place to stop for coffee or hot chocolate. Friendly staff and happy to have dogs.

Fantastic experience: Great place to walk for a coffee and pastry.

Fantastic experience: Excellent as always.Lovely Staff.Nice to be greeted with a warm smile to brighten up a wet day.

Fantastic experience: Fun and unusual place to go for a cold drink and to relax if you’re going for a walk around Ashtead Common in the summer.

Fantastic experience: I don’t think there’s a review I could do that would do the gym justice! The most supportive trainers (and members) that make The Barn such a safe body positive space, no matter where you are on your fitness journey All trainers really take the time to get to know you and have the balance down to push you to be the best you can be while understanding your limits The Barn has helped me to become so much stronger both physically and mentally‍♀️ Oh - and the oat flat whites and babkas are a plus after class! ☕️

Fantastic experience: I have been using the classes at the gym for a while after discovering The Barn KT9 dog walking on the common. The classes are great - inclusive, structured, all of the instructors are lovely and they push you to challenge yourself too. The cafe has made this area of the common a "destination" for so many, you are guaranteed a fab coffee with a smile from one of the baristas who are there every day, regardless of the weather.

Fantastic experience: Great place for a coffee stop when riding or walking in the area. Supporting small business is easy when they are great

Fantastic experience: The secret is slowly coming out. Recommended from a Friend Excellent coffee. Lovely and hot. Looked around the gym- very impressed. Did not expect what was being run. Service served with a smile and good conversation. Short walk over the stiles. Well worth it.

Fantastic experience: Amazing views and very good coffee! Will definitely be back.

Fantastic experience: Love this place, great stop off when out for a walk on Ashtead Common. Good coffee and cake.

Fantastic experience: Beautiful location, great coffee and snacks, and amazing customer service from Jaimee

Fantastic experience: We had our wedding at The Barn back in June and it was the best day of our lives! The Barn was the first place we looked at and fell in love straight away. We had never seen anything like it and thought how cool would it be to have our wedding in a vintage plane hangar. (Marquee hired separately) Charlie and Em were so accommodating and helpful whenever we needed anything. Their communication was amazing! During setting up and packing down days they were constantly keeping us going with iced coffees! We also stayed in one of the bell tents the night of our wedding which was a little stuffy but that was only because it was the hottest day of the year but the tent and surrounding area was very clean and tidy. They also have 2 beautiful cats roaming around which as a cat lover is an added bonus! They have done an amazing job creating all this themselves. They are such hard workers and have a real passion for their businesses and I couldn’t have been happier to have our wedding anywhere else. We will definitely be back to stay in the Shepherds Hut.

Fantastic experience: Great little cafe. Friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely wonderful cafe, gym, camping and event space. The coffee in the cafe is probably the best I've ever had. Jaimee the barista is really friendly and helpful, they have a wide variety of alternative milks and products that are allergy free and vegan. It's always nice to walk there across Ashtead common, sit down and take in the beautiful surroundings, say hello to all the four-legged friends who visit and sometimes even watch a second world war plane land!! We have also been glamping at the farm and the kids loved waking up to the sound of bird song and running through the wild flower meadows to the rather posh outdoor showers! We've been to a couple of food events there with food too which had live music in the incredible Hangar which would be perfect for a wedding. I was excited to hear from Charlie the owner that they're thinking about increasing their food offerings too! I've also attended the brilliant MFT exercise classes which are tough but so fun and the team and the other owner Emily are really friendly and knowledgeable. It's the absolute beating heart of Epsom and Ashtead - nay Surrey - and I highly recommend checking them out

Fantastic experience: Absolutely love The Barn! Their pre natal yoga course was just what I needed in my third trimester and their 'bring your own baby' post-natal classes (pilates and strength-based ones) have been brilliant ever since! Em, Tori, Eve and Caroline are fantastic trainers and all-round lovely people to chat to. The delicious treats and great views at the on-site cafe after a workout is an added bonus

Fantastic experience: Cute little drinks and snack venue with picnic benches in an open field. Lovely stop-off during a walk. Friendly and smiley staff

Fantastic experience: The Barn is an excellent cafe, in the pop-up style, even though it is well-established. It was recommended to me by my wife as being a good experience. The seating is on conventional tables with benches, deckchairs, or other methods are available. The coffee we had was of really good quality. There were also a good selection of cakes. In addition, there were snacks specifically for our canine friends. The service was cheerful and the server got the detail of our drinks spot on. It is no wonder that this place is so popular with walkers on Epsom Common and their dogs.

Positive experience: Pretty views over Malden Rushett farm. An iced tea and a lemonade cost £6.60 though!

Fantastic experience: Great location with an ever increasing selection of food and drink. A very calming place popular with dog owners, cyclists and walkers.

Fantastic experience: Lovely. Off the beaten track. Yummy breakfast and treats... and amazing coffee.

Fantastic experience: Lovely place. Accessible by foot from Epsom Common. Great coffee and cakes, look at their social media for extra events

Fantastic experience: Sono stato in vacanza ospite di parenti una bella esperienza

Fantastic experience: The Barn KT9 is a brilliant venue. I've been to a couple of events there and all have been fab. The location is stunning and Em and Charlie were amazing organisers. I also recently went to a postnatal class at the gym which I would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: As somebody who has worked in events for over 20 years I can honestly say The Barn KT9 is one of the best venues I have ever worked with. Charlie could not have been any more accommodating, professional and helpful. The venue is just beautiful and all of the guests had a fantastic time. I would highly recommend booking.

Fantastic experience: Wonderful coffee shop in the middle of a lovely farm!

Fantastic experience: Stumbling across The Barn KT9 was the best thing I have done in a long time! I had been on the lookout for pregnancy safe classes, only to find that every class is totally suitable pre/post-natally and everything in-between due to the incredible trainers that are all extremely qualified. Throughout my pregnancy I went to specific pre-natal fitness classes in addition to their regular fitness classes, where all exercises were safe and clearly explained and supported through each stage of pregnancy. Now postpartum, I have enjoyed a fitness course which includes education, stretching and exercises as well as meeting like minded women who all share an interest. The fact it is BYOB (baby style!) Is game changing, talk about inclusive. Maternal health is so important, and getting to The Barn and exercising knowing I can take my baby and she can interact, play and socialise at the same time clears my head and makes me feel great. I tell everyone I know about The Barn and have got colleagues who wanted to kick start fitness, to join - they equally love it. The added bonus of coffee and beautiful views makes it even more worthwhile. Em and her staff are incredible and have made this small business a real niche that you'd struggle to find anywhere else. I could write a lot more, instead, I'd recommend a visit, whether you drink coffee, go to a class, or simply enjoy one of the many eateries they have on beautiful summer evenings and weekends. You won't regret it.

Fantastic experience: What an absolute gem in the countryside! I started coming to the Barn in March for gym classes and the range and quality of them blew me away. It's a really welcoming space, there's so much kit and the training is challenging without being intimidating. There's a real community vibe here which I love! The food pop ups have all been epic (the ones I've tried so far) and the girls in the cafe make a banging flat white and iced latte. So pleased to have found it!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the world. Coffee and cake optional but also always welcome!

Fantastic experience: Excellent coffee and location.

Fantastic experience: Short walk nice walk from Epsom common car park this great little coffee shop nestled in the middle of nowhere, but also everywhere. Great coffee and location. Can get a little boggy and muddy during the wetter months so always wear boots or wellies! You can access by the road but you can’t park here. So best travel by bike. Don’t walk on the fields! It’s a working farm, so be careful where you put your feet. It’s definitely worth the trip.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been wanting to visit the barn for a year or so now, and it didn’t disappoint. I saw they were doing business talks so took that as my opportunity to come along. Friendly staff, great coffee & cakes, calm and natural atmosphere. Definition of beautiful countryside! Would definitely recommend a visit here especially to those who love the outdoors. Would be an awesome festival vibe Wedding venue (would love to photograph a wedding here!)

Positive experience: Tucked away gem to enjoy whilst out walking on Epsom Common. Also worth checking out events and pop ups. Great for all ages and families. Pretty setting

Fantastic experience: Such a great place, love all the classes especially the baby classes. Everyone so friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I hired this terrific venue for a wedding party. Boy we are glad that we did so. The owners couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating to make our day special. They helped us through various things and their advice and support was invaluable. The Barn is a wonderful spot and our friends and family loved the evening in the stunning Surrey countryside. I thoroughly recommend it as a venue and look forward to visiting again soon.

Fantastic experience: So much love for this place. There's an ever-expanding fitness timetable, great coffee and treats, and fantastic outdoor events and food. The friendly and VERY hard-working duo behind this brand deserve all the applause for creating such a fab local destination. Whether you're stopping by mid-walk from the Common, or driving across for a class...be sure to check it out, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Well made coffee and cake. Friendly staff.

Fantastic experience: Had the best 50th party here in January 2022. Such a cool vibe! Such a pleasure to deal with you, Charlie, you were so helpful - nothing was too much trouble. The Hangar is a special place for a get together. I love hearing about how you are continuing to develop this most magical of venues. A********

Fantastic experience: This venue has been my saviour throughout pregnancy and beyond. The prenatal uplift classes were perfect for guiding exercise within safe limits and I felt physically fit right up until I had my little girl because of them. The postnatal course has also been great. I love that I can BYOBaby to some classes now too. At the weekends, its lovely to go to The Barn KT9 as a family for a coffee and a spot of lunch, which is always of top quality. The owners really do take incredible care of what services they provide and I know I won't be disappointed whenever I visit. Absolute gem!

Fantastic experience: Everything you could want. Great coffee, great classes, great people. A real sense of community. Couldn’t recommend it highly enough. I encourage everyone to try it out - you won’t be disappointed!

Positive experience: This is very basic. A couple of pallets on a field with a food tent and/or coffee van. It is, however a pleasant place for a stop over and drink or meal as the sun goes down...

Fantastic experience: Friendly owner, great space for weddings food/events all year round. Camping with facilities on site can walk/ bus or cycle there. Disabled access ♿ and a great vibe.

Fantastic experience: I loved the postnatal uplift course - Tori was such a knowledgeable and caring teacher. The Barn is a great place and the facilities are excellent.

Fantastic experience: We went camping here last weekend, we pitched up our tent in front of a breath-taking view (you wouldn't know you were so close to London!) , we enjoyed the firepit and bbq and we really chilled at this lovely, relaxed location. There are plenty of walks around there, great coffee and pastries available on the field alongside and pop up food vans for lunch, as well as a couple of pubs just a stone throw away. The toilets are eco but just smell of sawdust which was a pleasant surprise, and they are roomy, which may sound like an odd mention but it is just great when taking little ones! All in all I recommend and would definitely go there again ;-)

Fantastic experience: Has a Helicopter landing stop, it is Convenient. Especially when you live 10 minutes away by car.

Fantastic experience: I have been to various events at The Barn KT9 including getting a coffee on a local walk, dining in the hangar as part of a larger event and completing the post natal uplift class. Every time all the staff have been friendly and met my expectations. The postnatal uplift class is a great way to get back into exercise after having a baby. Thoroughly recommend visiting!

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend the Barn KT9 more for prenatal and postnatal exercise. I attended a couple of classes before my baby and have competed the return to exercise 6 week course when my baby was 3 months old. Gemma was so friendly and knowledgeable and I found myself looking forward to every session. My baby always behaved surprisingly well as there were bouncers to put her in and the whole experience was really nourishing and stress free. Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: I discovered the gym classes by googling pregnancy safe fitness. I lost my mojo after becoming pregnant at 41, wanting to stay fit but being nervous about what I should and shouldn’t be doing. After two weeks with Em and the team of trainers at The Barn KT9 it was an easy decision to sign up as a monthly member. I found a network that is welcoming and supportive. I feel safe training, am learning how to train with my growing bump, feeling fitter and stronger than I thought would ever be possible during pregnancy. It’s a massive plus that we also discovered great coffee, fantastic food and great dog walking - it’s been a winning find for me and my family. Can’t recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: Cracking idea for pop up food on a farm! Loved it

Fantastic experience: The best discovery about a year ago or so! I have had coffee, cake, baby classes, night time feasts and workouts here. And now I can say hands down best showers and hair products I’ve come across in a gym. Honestly, check it out!

Fantastic experience: Great bikepacking spot on a Tuesday night, in easy reach of London. Hot showers, toilets and most importantly amazing pizza!

Fantastic experience: Can't rate this place highly enough and have recommended it to anyone I meet locally who wants to get into - or back into - exercising after having a baby. The classes are brilliant, full of friendly people and you can bring your baby to plenty of them too (lots to keep them entertained as well as super lovely instructors who are always willing to help while you work out). The coffee is brilliant and a great treat for afterwards, and the line up of food vans looks great too

Fantastic experience: Epic spot

Fantastic experience: Great steak and chips in a beautiful location.

Fantastic experience: I first attended the Postnatal Uplift 6 week course and this was the best decision I made! The educational part of the course was brilliant and something I imagine you would not get elsewhere (it is very apparent that the trainers specialise in pre and post natal exercise). Thanks to this wonderful place I have gained much needed strength to carry around my forever growing baby and I have gained confidence, allowing me to start feeling my pre-baby self again! Not to mention all the wonderful mums (and their babies) you meet along the way! Excellent trainers, stunning location and amazing food/coffee trucks..what more could you want?! This place really is a hidden gem!

Fantastic experience: Great coffee great people, lovely cakes. Well worth the detour through a muddy field, we worked for our coffee today.

Fantastic experience: I have been visiting The Barn for over a year now and have ticked off lots of what they have to offer: PT with Emily, Uplift classes, Rockhill Bros coffee, food pop ups and the amazing Fire & Feast! Em and Charlie that run the show are great, really friendly and accommodating. Em is also a fab PT and her Uplift classes great. I have gone from barely lifting a thing to smashing my PBs on a regular basis. I only wish I had known about it when I was pregnant with my little ones as they offer amazing pre and post-natal classes. The coffee and food pop ups make it a great place to visit as a family too. We spent lots of time chilling on the field over the summer, with the added bonus of watching the planes come in to land. I really look forward to seeing what they have coming up in 2022!

Fantastic experience: The Barn KT9 has been a welcome addition to the ever-growing venues in Ashtead! I've been to a couple of the events this year, which have been excellent, and having a coffee destination gets the kids out on the bikes with bribery of juice! I'm super excited to see what these guys are going to bring in 2022, so lucky to have an amazing, fun place on our doorstep!

Fantastic experience: The best night ever.

Fantastic experience: Our absolute favourite farm in Surrey! A place that holds different activities including a gym, rotation of food tracks on weekends, glamping, events and more. This place is loved by the local cyclists, hikers and dog walker and has been probably the best outing. This place also holds a landing area for light aircraft and helicopter and if lucky you get to see one landing or taking off while you enjoy a nice cup of specialty coffee and a pastry/cake. If you haven't been yet, this is an absolute must! Access by foot or on bike only (no parking). If arriving by car, best to park at stew pond car park at Epsom Common and walk (about 10 min)

Fantastic experience: I attended the Postnatal course at The Barn- Em’s knowledge of the postnatal body and reintroduction to exercise was motivating and reassuring. Would definitely recommend for any pregnant or postnatal clients looking to start or recommence exercise safely.

Fantastic experience: The barn KT9 is a slice of heaven within the m25. The Post Natal - The Beginning 6 week course was brilliant and I’m so glad I signed up! Such a great way to get back into exercise with the help of Gemma and Em who you can tell really know their stuff re. the body post pregnancy and birth. What’s more the gym is in an idyllic setting!

Fantastic experience: Em offers such great classes, I would highly recommend them. Coffee is fab and just what I need after a nice walk! Also went to the Fire and Feast event in the Hangar, had a great time, wonderful atmosphere and well put together. A must visit!

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for an amazing unusual blank canvas for your next event, this place is the one! It feels like you're out in the countryside, yet only a stones throw from London. Hosts Charlie & Emily are great hosts, thoroughly recommend this hidden gem.

Fantastic experience: Can't speak highly enough of everything on offer at the barn, especially the Post-Natal back to fitness 6-week course. LOVED IT! Being able to take the baby with us each week, and Em help look after them so our training wasn't cut short. The food, drink, walks and everything else on offer is brilliant. Love it there.

Fantastic experience: great place to stop mid ride for coffee, calzone (tuesday evenings) bbq steak (wednesday evenings)

Fantastic experience: Loved it my first time camping the host was very help full and friendly.theres hot showers and toilets were clean. 100% will visit again

Fantastic experience: Great coffee

Fantastic experience: If it had 508 Coffee would be 6 stars

Fantastic experience: Great coffee in the countryside

Positive experience: Love it!

Fantastic experience: We only saw the tents they have on offer amazingly well hidden considering location

Fantastic experience: Lovely little gem to grab a coffee and cake after a walk on the Ashtead and Epsom common.

Fantastic experience: They've really put Malden Rushett on a map You can go to the gym, grab a coffee and watch small planes land ☕️

Fantastic experience: I discovered this gem through baby classes at Olive's tipi (a pop up month of baby classes outdoors in a tipi in April 2021). I now return regularly for postnatal exercise classes which are excellent - an hour where you BYOB (bring your own baby if you like) and the instructors not only will distract/look after babies but make sure you are doing exercises that help you and challenge you. The views from the barn also help with motivation during classes. The Rockhill brothers coffee cart outside the barn, also has great views, great coffee AND cakes and I have visited with my family during weekend walks for a mid walk pick me up. (I highly recommend both the hot and iced chocolate as well!)

Fantastic experience: Incredible space, unbelievably beautiful views just a 5 minute drive from the centre of Epsom

Fantastic experience: Beautiful place, with lovely hosts.. if you're in the area its a must visit!
