    Corporate & private events

    A rural setting designed for clarity, focus and connection.

    A private hire setting for structured gatherings, leadership sessions, brand events and celebrations.

    Maydencroft Manor is available for full-day or multi-day exclusive hire where the same level of operational support applies as weddings.

    All events are delivered within a managed venue framework, including on-site coordination, supplier management and logistical oversight.

    This ensures consistency of delivery, regardless of event type.

  • St Ibbs Park (outdoor hire)

    St Ibbs Park (outdoor hire)

    A separate 30-acre lakeside setting available for larger outdoor-led events.

    Designed for:

    • marquee-based celebrations
    • large private gatherings
    • outdoor brand activations
    • wellness or retreat-style events

    This space is fully flexible and typically built around temporary structures such as tents, stages or event installations.

    It operates under the same managed venue model as the Manor.

How events are delivered

All events at Maydencroft Manor are delivered within a managed venue framework, with operational oversight provided by the on-site team throughout.

This ensures every event runs smoothly, safely, and consistently, regardless of format or scale.

Each booking includes structured access for setup, event delivery, and pack-down, coordinated in advance with approved suppliers.

A per-guest venue service fee applies to all exclusive hire events.

This forms part of the venue’s operational model and supports:

  • on-site venue coordination throughout the event
  • supplier management and logistical oversight
  • site operations, safety and guest flow management
  • drinks storage, chilling and handling where applicable

This structure allows the venue to operate as a fully supported countryside setting rather than a self-managed space, ensuring consistency across every event.

A limited number of events each year

We intentionally host a small number of exclusive hire events each season.

This allows us to:

  • maintain high standards of delivery
  • protect the landscape and buildings
  • give full attention to each booking
  • avoid overuse and scheduling pressure

A setting with purpose

Maydencroft Manor is part of the wider Maydencroft Group, working in conservation, land management and environmental restoration.

Events held here contribute to:

  • biodiversity and habitat creation
  • conservation grazing across farmland
  • restoration of historic rural buildings and landscapes
