Like its inspiration, the Palace of Versailles, Wrest Park adds elegance and grandeur to any event. This festive season, make your Christmas party unforgettable with a choice of elegant gilded rooms, the airy Orangery, and magnificent gardens - all exclusively yours.

Your guests can make a grand entrance through the outer oval hall which takes you into the gilded staircase hall with its sweeping staircase, as portraits of the de Grey family in their ornate gilded frames look down from above.

Ante Library and Terrace
The spectacular view of the garden from the Ante-Library will be a talking point among your guests. The high French doors lead directly onto the terrace, which is an elegant place for guests to mingle.

Drawing Room
The rich blue Drawing Room was once the setting for extravagant balls under the masterfully painted ceiling. Perfect for drinks receptions or even for small dining parties, your guests will be spellbound in this exquisitely decorated room.

Library
The grand floor to ceiling windows in the library made it the favourite room of the de Grey family, and the library remains beautifully elegant. Lined with books and elaborate gilded plasterwork, the room provides a perfect backdrop for classic Christmas pictures.

Dining Room
With the original parquet wood floor and dramatic white and gold decoration, this room is perfect for your guests to sit down to dine before they take to the dance floor.

Orangery
Just a short walk from the main house, the Orangery used to be home to some of the largest orange trees in England. This large space is a great place to celebrate this festive season, with an ornate glass ceiling and large windows providing expansive views of the picturesque gardens.

The American Garden Marquee Site
This marquee site, next to the Orangery, can accommodate up to 1,000 guests for dinner and dancing. The pretty garden setting is shaded by mature trees and is one of the most important historic landscapes in England.
