Dining rooms
Note: all room hire charges include linen napkins, simple flower arrangements, single card menus and candles.
The Hall
The Hall designed in the 1820's in neo-Gothic fashion, offers grandeur on a large scale, suitable for the most prominent of events. It can accommodate up to 312 guests for a dinner and has a minimum number applicable of 150. All food is served plated, using the very best produce and locally sourced, where feasible.
For your drinks reception, hire of the Hall includes use of the Back Lawn with one of the most photographed back drops in Cambridge. If the great British weather is not quite up to scratch, the Chetwynd Room and Keynes Lecture Theatre are available for use instead.
