Amaranth Court makes a wonderful venue for private parties and functions, from intimate candlelit dinners to lavish parties to celebrate in style; you can enjoy award winning bespoke cuisine and impeccable service in luxurious surroundings. Walk in the footsteps of royalty through the spectacular Main Hall with its stunning stone staircase or indulge in a banquet fit for a King or Queen in the magnificent Wyatt Room, after all, Queen Elizabeth I owned Amaranth Court until her death in 1603, with the house playing host to many splendid social occasions with the Dukes of Bridgewater in residence.

   

Amaranth Court is in a wonderful private estate surrounded by beautiful countryside yet is just 30 miles from London, with superb accessibility from the national motorway network and close to several international airports.

Drinks receptions can be held in a second room, or in good weather why not enjoy a champagne reception in the beautiful grounds, listed as Grade II by English Heritage and one of the most stunning examples of Capability Brown and Humphry Repton’s work. For all day events, we can arrange a wide range of activities both in the house and the grounds, and to finish your festivities with a bang why not enjoy a spectacular fireworks display, which can even be set to your favourite piece of music.

For a truly special experience, enjoy the exclusivity of all the State Rooms within the main house with a dedicated team of butlers to cater for your every whim. Pick and choose which room to enjoy pre-dinner drinks, and perhaps post-dinner you and your guests could enjoy a casino in one room, a classical pianist in another and perhaps a DJ or live band in another room, to cater for whatever mood takes your fancy. Please do note the reception and the bar would be shared with the conference centre, however a bar can be arranged in one of the reception rooms to ensure your privacy.
