Surrounded by 1,000 acres of peaceful Sussex countryside, Gravetye Manor offers an exceptional setting for both corporate and personal events. Though just 12 miles from Gatwick Airport, this historic country house feels a world away; discreet, luxurious and steeped in charm.
Whether you’re planning a strategic board meeting or a special celebration, Gravetye balances old-world elegance with modern convenience. For corporate gatherings, the wood-panelled meeting room accommodates between 9 and 20 guests in a boardroom-style layout, complete with high-speed fibre optic broadband, projector, screen and plenty of natural daylight, creating a refined but practical setting for discussion and focus. The Private Dining Room is ideal for smaller, more informal meetings of up to eight, offering a cosier atmosphere without presentation facilities, but with the same level of attentive service.
Day delegate rates are available and include morning coffee, lunch, afternoon tea, still and sparkling water and room hire. Lunch for up to 12 guests can be served in the Private Dining Room, while larger groups are offered a working buffet. For those looking to stay longer, 24-hour conferencing with overnight accommodation is also available.
Beyond business, Gravetye Manor lends itself beautifully to personal occasions like intimate weddings, milestone birthdays or anniversary dinners in the heart of nature. The estate’s history adds a sense of occasion: once home to famed 19th-century gardener William Robinson, the manor is now home to a Michelin-starred restaurant overlooking his legacy - a wild, naturalistic garden that helped shape English horticulture.
Following careful restoration, the interiors reflect both heritage and quiet modern luxury. The new dining room, opened in time for the manor’s 60th anniversary as a hotel, perfectly bridges past and present, with garden views that change colour with the seasons. Whether you’re hosting clients or celebrating something special with friends and family, Gravetye Manor offers a rare kind of hospitality: deeply personal, impressively professional and always surrounded by beauty.
