London has great transport links to these prestigious countryside venues. If you’re planning an event outside of the city these are the spaces we recommend.

Dating back to the 15th-century, De Vere Theobalds Estate in Cheshunt, Hertfordshire has had several former lives: the favourite country seat of King James I, a Georgian family home, a temporary retreat for Christopher Wren’s Temple Bar archway and a WWII military riding school; all before turning into a hotel in the 1990s.
North of London
Luton Hoo offers two contrasting styles of holding conferences and meetings. The Mansion House or the purpose-built venue, Warren Weir, which has been designed specifically to offer business clients who value total privacy a self-contained setting that is totally discreet.
