Located on the ground floor of this spectacular Wesminster event venue is the Stephenson room, one of our smaller but really traditional function rooms. This cosy event space has high ceilings and large windows allowing lots of natural daylight. Your guests will be amazed by the rich, dark oak panelling and the ceilings adorned by beautifully embellished plaster and lit by a large chandelier. The stunning wooden table along the middle of the room is ideal to seat up to 26 people for an intimate private dining event. The Stephenson room is also ideal for a standing reception.
