Impress your guests by hosting your next meeting or event at De Vere Horsley Estate, located in East Horsley, Surrey, as seen in Netflix’s award-winning series The Crown. In season two, episode six, the striking historic Horsley Towers can be seen on screen as the German Marburg Castle in Hesse.
For those looking for a unique venue, Horsley Towers, which features 28 bedrooms, two function spaces, three meeting rooms and acres of beautiful grounds can be hired out exclusively for events, guaranteed to offer your guests an unforgettable experience. The wider estate offers a further 33 meeting and event spaces, with space for up to 200 guests*.
The 19th century mansion house has a rather regal history; designed by Sir Charles Barry, who also designed the Houses of Parliament and Highclere Castle, it was originally the marital home of Lord Byron’s daughter, Ada Lovelace, the well-known mathematician, and writer. Ada was regarded as one of the world’s first computer programmers, owing to her pioneering work on Charles Babbage’s mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. The property was later bought by Sir Thomas Sopwith, the inventor of the Sopwith Camel aeroplane.
Horsley Towers has recently undergone a multi-million-pound transformation, which has seen its event spaces, including the iconic Great Hall, renovated to ensure the property retains many of its original features dating back to 1822.
Set in acres of Surrey parkland, the estate is surrounded by perfectly manicured grounds and a large lake, perfect for delegates to get some fresh air and clear their mind with a leisurely stroll between breakout sessions.
*Due to social distancing, the venue’s capacity is currently lower.
