Information
Ashridge House is set in a private 190 acre estate, offering an idyllic setting with delightful grounds including Capability Brown parkland and beautiful formal gardens designed by Humphry Repton. This magnificent property dates back to 1283 when its original purpose was for a monastery, and was renowned as a centre for learning until King Henry VIII dissolved monasteries in the UK in 1539. The house became the home of Princess Elizabeth, who lived here during her youth, and continued to own the house until her death in 1603.

We wanted to let you know that our meeting yesterday at Ashridge House was a huge success – the venue was fantastic and the service faultless. Working in the hospitality industry we know how hard it is to achieve such a consistent and high level of service and we were all in awe!
