Welcoming Your Events at Gaunts House
Here at Gaunts we have the capacity to host groups large and small, enough workshop spaces, and bedrooms in the house and stable-block, plus camping, to welcome most events. There are exclusive use options available, and discounted prices on larger groups.
As well as having your own retreat workshop room, there are various shared areas around the main house and grounds. These include the Drawing Room and Old Hall, Dining Room, Bar, Gardens, huge woodland grounds, swimming pool and much besides.
Determing your group size
Once you have determined what size your group/course will be, we can discuss the best place to host you. Each booking comes with one of our workshop rooms. The Barn Theatre is our largest workshop space, the Ball Room our most elegant, the Library our most peaceful, and the squash court, a satellite space in the stable block.
