The Goodwood Estate venue hire
The Goodwood Estate venue hire provides a first impression unlike any other. Pull up to the turning circle at Goodwood House and walk through the elegant central doors and you’re likely to hear a collective intake of breath. Goodwood not only provides a visually spectacular backdrop to your big event, but it is also an estate steeped in enormous historical significance.
Built in 1616-17 by the 9th Earl of Northumberland, Goodwood was originally rented by the Duke of Richmond, from which he would take part in the nearby Charlton Hunt. Today, Goodwood is internationally renowned for its yearly sporting events – namely Goodwood Festival of Speed, Goodwood Revival and Glorious Goodwood – and shows no sign of slowing down. Your guests will be treated to only the very best as they sip champagne in the State Apartments, relax at The Goodwood Hotel, and enjoy the estate’s extensive landscaped grounds.
As soon as they have arrived, guests can expect world-class service from the Goodwood Estate’s team of extensively trained butlers. The high levels of service at Goodwood have been honed and perfected over the past 300 years, so there’s certainly no chance staff will fall short of their impeccable standards.
Not only will your guests be attentively looked after by the front of house staff, but Goodwood’s kitchen team will be plating up mouthwatering dishes made from the finest organic produce. The Goodwood Estate’s own 3,000-acre organic farm provides a great many of the kitchen’s ingredients, and special menus are frequently devised using seasonal produce from the estate grounds.
The Goodwood Estate houses three distinct venues, each offering something entirely unique, making planning the perfect event easier than ever. No matter what your specifications – be it a business meeting or a 60th birthday party – The Goodwood Estate venue hire will provide a bespoke solution.
