About Burghley House

With its stately architecture, sweeping parkland and centuries of heritage, Burghley House offers a truly unique setting for both private parties and corporate events. Whether you're gathering colleagues for a strategy session, launching a product, or celebrating a milestone with friends and family, Burghley delivers a sense of occasion like nowhere else.

Set within 13,000 acres of stunning parkland in Lincolnshire, Burghley is just the kind of beautiful that seems to be plucked straight from the pages of a storybook. But as well as being charming, it's practical, too. The spaces on offer range from grand and formal to contemporary and versatile, meaning you’ll find the perfect setting whether you’re planning a board meeting or a birthday bash.

The Great Hall, with its Tudor fireplace and double hammer-beam ceiling, makes a breathtaking backdrop for dinners, receptions, and even theatre-style corporate presentations. With capacity for up to 180 people standing, it’s a setting that never fails to impress. For something more relaxed, the light-filled Orangery Restaurant overlooks the Rose Garden and parkland beyond, which is ideal for drinks receptions, stylish dinners, or informal networking events.

For smaller meetings, the Cheke Room and Ascham Room in the Brewhouse offer modern facilities just steps from the main house, combining convenience with character. Meanwhile, The Dairy, a beautifully restored 19th-century building nestled in the estate, offers a peaceful rural hideaway for team building, strategy days or creative workshops, complete with exclusive use options and panoramic views.

A standout feature of events at Burghley is the exceptional catering. Inspired by seasonal and locally sourced ingredients, the menus are crafted by an expert team who work with you to create the right experience. Whether it’s fine dining in the Great Hall or barbecue canapés in the Rose Garden - both sound pretty darn good to us.

With its remarkable surroundings, expert team and adaptable spaces, Burghley House is the ultimate destination for events that are as memorable as they are meaningful. Cheers to that.

Testimonials for Burghley House

The planning of the wedding was executed with precisionJUNE, 2024

The planning of the wedding was executed with precision, and with such great attention to detail. You made the wedding of our daughter magical, a day that we will remeber forever. The photos we have seen so far capture the day in all its glory, and reflects the wonderful setting. All the guests thoroughly enjoyed the day, especially the tour of the house and the fantastic atmosphere was created. Quite simply, the wedding was everything and more. Thank you all so much.
