The Grove - UK

---

Welcome to The Grove - London's cosmopolitan country estate. Once the former home of the Earls of Clarendon, today it is a unique location for events with a championship golf course and an award-winning spa. The Grove event spaces are the perfect choice for a range of high calibre events including conferences and away days. The venue is just 18 miles from central London, set in 300 acres of beautiful Hertfordshire countryside. The venue is only 30 minutes from Heathrow and 17 minutes by train from London Euston.

This country house venue lends itself to all sizes of celebrations and has more than six different spaces. These spaces can hold everything from small meetings to grand gala dinners. All The Grove event spaces provide the facilities for a successful corporate event or a magical private celebration. The vision of leading designer Martin Hulbert flows effortlessly through each of the newly renovated event spaces. Many spaces can be adjoined or separated with the innovative use of subtle partitions and curtains.

The Cedar is the Grove's newest event space and takes its name from the 200-year-old cedar trees in the gardens. The Cedar enjoys huge amounts of natural daylight through floor-to-ceiling windows. Therefore, its capabilities are as limitless as the views, which unfold over the formal and sunken gardens. The Cedar is totally flexible making it perfect for meetings, events and celebrations. It comes with a private entrance, three spacious meeting rooms and break-out spaces.

Another key space is The Amber. This is the largest and most versatile space and comes complete with high ceilings, panoramic views and access to the beautiful gardens. It can host up to 450 delegates for conferences, presentations, board meetings, team building and celebration events. Additionally, the 520 square metres of space can also be divided by partitions to suit smaller meetings and events.

In addition, the Ivory Rooms are perfect for events for up to 120 delegates. This space has its own private entrance and terrace set within the beautiful formal gardens. A welcome drinks reception can be served in the foyer before guests move to the main suite.

Most noteworthy is the beautiful Walled Garden. This unique space is quite simply a world within a world. It comes with tennis courts, a croquet lawn, an outdoor swimming pool and its very own urban beach. There are volleyball courts, table tennis and event the Potting Shed event space. The Potting Shed is a beautifully restored Victorian glasshouse that can be used for receptions or summer parties. Most of all, this secluded countryside haven can be booked exclusively for corporate events and team-building activities.

Queen Victoria was a frequent guest of the Earls of Clarendon and attended lavish parties at The Grove, leading to the invention of the phenomenon 'weekend break'. As a result, The Times referred to The Grove as one of the great political houses of the day. Today, the mansion is an elegant setting for high-level boardroom discussions, private parties, and dinners.

In conclusion, The Grove event spaces offer a wealth of options. From brainstorming on the beach to team barbecues in the garden. From discussing strategy on a world-renowned golf course to boardroom presentations in a luxurious meeting room. Your guests will enjoy the award-winning spa and also spend time in lounges, bars and gardens. It seems like there’s nowhere so close to London quite like it. With acres of breath-taking grounds, total flexibility and bright interiors, it’s very probably in a league of its own.
