Contrasting to the Main Hall above, the Undercroft of Banqueting house was designed as a drinking den for James I and his friends and was used for riotous parties and gambling. Its vaulted space provides a perfect ambience for pre-dinner drinks, atmospheric after parties and it's neutral colours make it perfect for branding and colour washes. The undercroft can be hired either by itself or in addition to the Main Hall above. Banqueting house is closed on Thursdays allowing for all day builds and set ups for large events, alternatively it can be used for luxury conferencing and daytime events.
