Venue Description
Set on an island and surrounded by 500 acres of tranquil parkland the magnificent Leeds Castle offers an unparalleled setting, security, seclusion and privacy.
This historic unique country retreat in a peaceful lakeside location is the perfect place for residential and day conferences, corporate activity days, family fun days, presentations and banqueting. The 900 year-old castle is available on an exclusive-use basis only.
Within the castle, clients may use the intimate Board Room, the sumptuous Castle Dining Room and the impressive King Henry VIII Banqueting Hall. Elsewhere on the Castle Island, the Gatehouse forms a self-contained suite.
For residential conferences, there are 20 castle bedrooms. Each is individual in character and décor, offering everything from antique four-posters to panoramic views of the rolling Kent countryside.
Situated across the moat, the Culpeper Garden Suite offers a mix of meeting and reception rooms, supported by 15 bedrooms around the Stable Courtyard.
During the winter months, the Fairfax Hall and Terrace Room, with its breathtaking views of the castle, can be used for private daytime meetings, seminars and lunches. In the midst of the parkland, the Cedar Lawn provides the perfect dedicated marquee site for larger corporate events with the castle offering a spectacular backdrop.
There is also a choice of venues within the castle and its grounds that combine to create the perfect setting for a wedding ceremony and celebrations including the Fairfax Hall and Terrace Room with its breathtaking views of the castle across the moat.
To complement any corporate event Leeds Castle offers a prestigious portfolio of services. Golfers can relax and unwind on Leeds Castle's own 9-hole golf course, while those looking for a real thrill can take a flight in the Leeds Castle Balloon over the countryside.
