Hawkesyard Estate

If you want the kind of venue that speaks of grandeur and sophistication, then Hawkesyard Estate will suit you very well. This spectacular country house stands in 200 acres of typically English parkland, right at the edge of the glorious Cannock Chase countryside in Staffordshire; naturally, it’s a favourite for weddings, but with a full capacity of 120 delegates they have all events covered here from conferences, training days, product launches and awards ceremonies through to dinner-dances, parties, exhibitions and photoshoots.

With its origins in the 12th century the Grade II listed former Spode House sits at the heart of the Hawkesyard Estate surrounded by formal gardens and well kept grounds that throw open the doors for amazing team building opportunities. There are 5 meeting and event spaces, the biggest being the Parklands and the Armitage which both hold up to 120 people and are modern in style with air con and private bars. The Lister Suite has a distinct heritage character and can accommodate a maximum of 70 guests. Perfect for those hush-hush executive meetings, the Sir Robert Peele Suite seats 14 and has impressive traditional features. The latter two rooms can be used together or separately as required.

The well-polished events team will take care of all the details for you and help to oversee a smoothly run event; up-to-the-minute audio-visual equipment can be arranged to your requirements, and a choice of menus comes via a talented in-house catering team. The venue offers reasonably priced delegate packages so be sure to take a look.

Just 10 minutes from Lichfield and 20 minutes from Stafford, Hawkesyard Estate has on-site parking for over 200 cars and is within easy reach of major road and rail networks.
