Notley Abbey

About the venue

Notley Abbey is set in 69 acres of tranquil Buckinghamshire countryside on the banks of the river Thames.

The restored monastic building – once home to Sir Laurence Olivier & Vivien Leigh – combines an original facade with a stylish modern interior & is available on an exclusive-hire basis. Dating back to the 12th century, the Monk’s Refectory can accommodate up to 250 for a theatre-style conference or 160 for dinner, while the 16th-century Abbots Hall can hold up to 90 for meetings. Three further rooms are available for breakout activities, drinks receptions or intimate dining. There are also nine double bedrooms, as well as good quality accommodation for larger groups within 10 minutes drive of Notley Abbey. The grounds are a combination of beautiful manicured lawns, tennis courts & fields offer ample opportunity for on-site teambuilding activities and the options for both corporate and private events are vast both inside and outside. Available on an exclusive-use basis, a personalised event management service is available from RioEvents.
