Three magnificent chandeliers illuminate the silk-papered walls of the Waldegrave Drawing Room, where Georgian grandeur meets modern event requirements. This exceptional space at St Mary's University in Twickenham combines historic architectural details with everything needed for contemporary celebrations and gatherings. The room's soaring ornate ceiling and intricately carved stone fireplace create an atmosphere of refined elegance, while the polished Venetian flooring reflects the warm chandelier light during evening events. Natural daylight streams through tall windows during daytime functions, offering views across the university's leafy grounds. We can accommodate 160 guests for standing receptions, 145 in theatre configuration, or 105 for seated banquets, with flexibility to arrange the space according to your specific requirements. Our events team regularly transforms this versatile room for different occasions, from corporate receptions with cocktail tables to wedding celebrations with round dining tables dressed in crisp white linens. The integrated PA system and reliable Wi-Fi support presentations and speeches, while the room's natural acoustics enhance live music performances. Located just minutes from Strawberry Hill Station, guests find us easily accessible, with on-site parking available for those arriving by car. The Drawing Room sits within the university's historic quarter, originally part of Horace Walpole's celebrated Strawberry Hill House. This architectural heritage provides a distinguished backdrop for milestone celebrations, product launches, and formal dinners. Step-free access and lift facilities ensure all guests can enjoy the space comfortably. Our alcohol licence extends until 11pm, and we work with experienced caterers who understand the room's service areas and flow. Whether planning an intimate gathering or grand celebration, the Waldegrave Drawing Room offers both the gravitas of centuries-old architecture and the practical amenities modern events demand.
