About
St Audries Park
St Audries Park is an exclusive-use country house venue set within approximately 100 acres of private deer park in West Quantoxhead, Somerset. Surrounded by the Quantock Hills and overlooking the Somerset coast, the Gothic-style manor house combines grand period interiors, extensive grounds and onsite accommodation to create an impressive setting for corporate events, private celebrations, weddings and residential gatherings.
With multiple reception rooms, dedicated dining and party spaces, bars, in-house catering and accommodation for more than 100 guests across the estate, St Audries Park can host everything from meetings and corporate away days to gala dinners, Christmas parties and large private events. All events can be arranged on an exclusive-use basis, with one-day, evening and multi-day options available.
Event Spaces
The Orangery
The light-filled Orangery is one of St Audries Park's signature spaces, combining impressive architecture with extensive natural daylight and views across the grounds. Used for ceremonies and receptions, it provides an elegant setting for presentations, drinks receptions, launches and private events.
Banqueting Hall
The Banqueting Hall is the principal dining space at St Audries Park, overlooking the rose garden and deer park. Accommodating up to 130 guests for a seated dinner, it is ideal for gala dinners, awards dinners, corporate celebrations, wedding breakfasts and formal private dining.
Great Hall
The Great Hall provides a dramatic centrepiece to the main house and transforms particularly well for evening events. Furniture can be repositioned to create a large dance floor, with space for live entertainment, and the room can form part of events for up to 250 guests.
Champagne Bar & Night Club
A dedicated evening entertainment space incorporating a second bar and nightclub room. The nightclub itself accommodates approximately 80 guests, providing a separate area for dancing and late-evening entertainment alongside larger events within the house.
Reception Rooms
A collection of characterful reception rooms throughout the manor house provides additional space for meetings, networking, breakout sessions, hospitality and smaller private gatherings. These spaces also allow organisers to create different areas within an exclusive-use event.
Gardens & Deer Park
Approximately 100 acres of private grounds provide extensive possibilities for outdoor events, team activities, corporate fun days, receptions, photography and alfresco dining. The venue specifically offers both indoor and outdoor bespoke events.
Facilities and Services
St Audries Park offers an experienced in-house events team, catering, licensed bars, dining facilities, accommodation, exclusive use and extensive outdoor event space. Catering can range from multi-course dinners and canapés to afternoon tea, BBQs and street food.

Why Hire
St Audries Park offers considerably more than a traditional wedding venue. Its exclusive-use model allows corporate and private clients to take over the country house, event rooms and grounds for anything from a single evening to a multi-day residential event.
The combination of formal dining for 130, receptions and parties for up to 250, dedicated entertainment spaces and accommodation for more than 100 guests makes it particularly strong for residential celebrations, corporate retreats, gala dinners and company events.
