About
Great Fosters
Great Fosters is a five-star historic country house hotel in Egham, Surrey, set within around 50 acres of gardens and parkland close to Windsor and Heathrow Airport. The main house dates from 1550 and combines Tudor architecture and historic interiors with dedicated conference facilities, private dining rooms, extensive grounds and residential accommodation.
The estate offers a particularly broad events proposition. The historic Tithe Barn provides the main banqueting and celebration space, while the Orangery, Painted Hall and dedicated Coach House meeting rooms provide options for conferences, private dining, meetings and breakout sessions. The grounds can also accommodate team building, outdoor events and summer entertaining.
Great Fosters has 56 individually designed bedrooms and suites, allowing residential conferences and exclusive-use events to be accommodated entirely onsite. The whole property can also be hired exclusively.

Why Hire
Great Fosters combines a genuine historic country house setting with considerably more event infrastructure than its appearance might suggest. The Tithe Barn provides a distinctive large-scale event space, while the Orangery and Coach House rooms allow conferences and corporate programmes to incorporate plenary sessions, breakouts, dining and social activity across the same estate.
The grounds are another significant advantage. Rather than simply providing gardens as a backdrop, Great Fosters actively uses the estate for team building, incentive events and outdoor entertaining, with activities ranging from archery and lawn games to more structured team challenges.
For residential events, the hotel can be hired exclusively with all 56 bedrooms and its meeting and private dining spaces, giving organisers considerable control over the entire guest experience. A separate exclusive-hire option is also available for the Coach House and Cloisters, incorporating 27 bedrooms and dedicated meeting facilities.
