The ‌‌‍Snug Barn is a purpose-built live-music room at Bishop's Court Farm, a 300-acre working farm at 91 High Street, Dorchester-on-Thames, Oxfordshire (OX10 7HP), a few miles from Wallingford. The barn houses a marquee built to a high acoustic standard, seating nearly 200 at garden tables with its own bar, stage, state-of-the-art sound and lighting and a grand piano. Its acclaimed 'Snug Sessions' have become a fixture of South Oxfordshire's jazz scene — produced with partners including Wood HQ and Hampstead Jazz Club — hosting touring jazz, soul and world artists alongside the farm's resident alpacas, horses and other animals. A characterful destination listening room rather than a BYO-PA pub.
