At the Monastery
A place to make you proud
Whether a celebratory banquet or honouring an achievement, there is no better place for pride to take centre stage. Class is built into our DNA, and our award-winning team will ensure your expectations are exceeded.
The splendour of the Great Nave at The Monastery provides a magnificent backdrop for breathtaking banquets, gala dinners and awards celebrations with formal seating for up to 450 guests. Food and hospitality is our passion, cooked with love and served with soul.
Events that will take your breath away
A place for winners
We host many awards ceremonies at The Monastery; we think there may be a natural synergy with our own penchant for picking up trophies. We’re now at thirty something and still counting.
Whatever your event, the backdrop of our fabulous Great Nave will always be accompanied by food which is often described by guests
as ‘a work of art’.
This example from Chef John Rose perfectly makes the point.
A feast of spectacular sensations
Having so many wonderful events at The Monastery creates the incredible aura which has become the hallmark of our beautiful venue. It’s an honour when you have your Banquets & Awards with us! Paying attention to every last detail is built into our DNA. We want to ensure that everything is exactly as our clients request. Taking the burden of organisation on the day is a big part of our job, working alongside the event planners to best suit our clients. Anticipating changes in requirements is also part of our job as we know that occasional ‘adjustments’ are inevitable.
Ensuring that guests at our events enjoy their day with us is paramount. An important part of this is the quality of the food and drink we offer, as well as the speed and consistency of service delivery.
Not only that, but you will be helping the building keep maintained and in fantastic condition by holding your event here!
The Monastery has the most versatile spaces that you’ll find in any events venue, offering incredible flexibility to ensure plans for the day exactly match the needs and guest numbers for all of our clients. For precise details of our spaces, a PDF of our floor plans is available by clicking here.
