Located within Worton Park just outside of Oxford, Worton Hall is an impressive destination for festive events, big and small. It's a thoughtfully renovated space, built in Cotswold stone with arrow slit windows, wood chandeliers, and a mezzanine floor for overhead photography. This versatile venue consists of three connected function rooms - The Main Hall, The Hayloft Gallery, and The Cresswell Bar - which can be combined to create a spacious and exclusive area for up to 250 seated guests or 500 standing.
Originally a grain barn, Worton Hall has been thoughtfully renovated to create a modern blank canvas space while still retaining some of its original features. So whether it’s an intimate Christmas drinks reception or a large corporate party with every department in attendance, you’ll find ample space for dining, dancing, and socialising. You’ll also find there are two well-equipped bars, and plenty of courtyard space for arrival photos.
It’s ready to be decked out to the nines with space to set up a Christmas grotto, a Secret Santa table, and festive novelty activities to keep your guests entertained. And if entertainment is what you’re after, the event venue at Worton Hall can provide staging, a dancefloor, customisable LED lighting (both exterior and interior), string lighting, and in-built wireless sound.
As for the food, the team at Worton Hall works in partnership with a recommended caterer with full access to their onsite kitchens. However, if you have a specific vision for festive food and nibbles, you can bring your own caterer into the fold. Should you wish to make the most out of the event, you can stay overnight with a maximum of 26 guests. Whatever you decide, a dedicated events coordinator will be on hand to ensure every step of the way.
