Private Venue Hire
Ham Court is available to hire as a venue for your events.
We often host creative workshops in The Studio and the garden and grounds have been used as photoshoot locations by a number of well-known fashion brands.
There is a range of spaces at Ham Court available to hire for different events, including both indoor and outdoor spaces.
The Studio
This is a bright and airy space, converted from an ancient Cotswold Stone barn. It can hold between 30 and 40 people comfortably, depending on how the room is laid out, with room for them to participate practically in classes or workshops. It is well-lit, with tall windows and doors which open on one side to a small courtyard and the other to a grassy area surrounded by the moat. There are two Belfast sinks in a counter worktop, with kettle and coffee machine, and a small loo.
Matthew uses The Studio as his daily work space, so it bears the marks of a working office and creative space; reference books, pottery samples and archive designs line the walls along with many of Matthew’s late mother, Pat Albeck’s, tea towels.
The studio would suit a creative workshop or class, such as floristry or block printing, corporate away-days, or brand retreats.

The Dairy
Recently transformed from a disused farm outbuilding, The Dairy is the newest space at Ham Court. A simple but smart dining area with a maximum capacity of 30 people. The bones of the barn it once was are still visible through the exposed rafters and high, small windows, this space has a relaxed, paired-back feel. The roaring log burner welcomes you on colder days, and in Summer months the doors can be held open to encourage a cooling breeze. There is also a disabled access loo in The Dairy.
The Dairy has its own self-contained, fully professional kitchen, however we do of course recommend our in-house chef, Dave Cross, Head Chef of Fools Delight, for your catering needs on the day.
Please do get in touch with us to see sample menus, pricing and to enquire about external caterers.
See our gallery below for more pictures of The Dairy and kitchen.

The Cart Shed
The Cart Shed provides an area for outdoor dining under shelter, it is situated between The Studio and The Dairy Kitchen, making it the perfect lace to stop for lunch during a day in The Studio. There is a large, solid table which seats up to 14. The table looks over a cobbled courtyard with surrounded by gravel garden, planted with fig trees, almonds, sage and eryngium.
This space is a good option for lunch on a warmer day and can be used instead of The Dairy if you are hosting an event here.
