We all love the idea of hosting our next big event - whether it be a sentimental one, like a birthday or wedding, or an important meeting or team building - at an impressive country house. But, more often than not, this is harder than it looks. Limited overnight accommodation or middle-of-nowhere locations, and then there's the price of renting a historic, protected building.
Middle Aston House makes it all just so much easier. This beautiful country home is huge, yes, but it's not stuffy. While the facade and grounds look storybook-perfect, inside you'll find all the mod cons and a contemporary vibe. Plus, it's been designed to work for large groups and corporate events, with everything you might need from AV facilities to 55 cosy bedrooms.
So, let's start with location - you'll find Middle Aston House between Bicester and Banbury, which means plenty of motorways and train stations nearby, as well as a bit of shopping at Bicester Village, if you're into that sort of thing! Across the site are 55 bedrooms with capacity for more than 100 people, meaning everyone will have a place to rest their head, as well as eight versatile meeting spaces, four dining areas, and 20 acres of lush grounds.
For private parties, you're welcome to have exclusive use of the entire venue for a night or the whole weekend, or if you'd like to take over one space, there's a mix of options including intimate dining rooms, relaxed lounges for cocktails and canapes, and lavish ballrooms for a really posh, all-out do.
If you're planning something more corporate, you might be interested to know that Middle Aston House can put on their own team building activities, organising all the games for you. They also specialise in product launches and have just the right spaces to host these kinds of events for you.
When it comes to catering, everything can be delivered in house. The kitchen serves modern British cuisine but can create tailored menus to suit you and your event.
