Function Table Set Up
Functions, Social Events & Corporate Hospitality

Otley Hall is an outstanding venue for a variety of functions and social events including private dinner parties and corporate functions. The house and gardens can also be used for film and photography locations.


















The rooms for private functions hire include the Great Hall (below left) and the Linenfold Parlour (below right).   It has been said that Bartholomew Gosnold used the Great Hall as a planning and recruitment centre for his famous Jamestown expedition in 1606/7 - the voyage that gave birth to English-speaking America. The Linenfold Parlour contains linenfold panelling of such high quality that it is thought by some to be the original panelling from Cardinal
Wolsey' s closet at Hampton Court.

Overnight accommodation is available at first-class hotels in nearby Woodbridge and Ipswich.
