About Senior Common Room
24 Boardroom
60 Theatre
100 Standing / Reception
Rich wood paneling catches the afternoon light through tall windows in the Senior Common Room, where Georgian portraits watch over gatherings with quiet dignity. This handsome space at St Mary's University brings together centuries of academic tradition with everything modern events require, from the polished wooden floors to the ornate chandelier that crowns the room. The grand fireplace anchors one wall, creating a natural focal point whether you're hosting drinks for 100 guests or arranging theatre seating for 60. Dark wood and intricate wallpaper give the room gravitas without feeling stuffy, while decorative sconces and that spectacular chandelier provide layers of lighting to suit any mood. The plush blue carpet defines conversation areas, and those generous windows frame views of Strawberry Hill's leafy surroundings. We've equipped the room with projector, PA system and reliable Wi-Fi, all discreetly integrated to preserve the historical atmosphere. The space works beautifully for cocktail receptions where guests naturally gravitate between the fireplace and windows, or more formal occasions with boardroom seating for 24. Our in-house catering team handles everything from working lunches to evening celebrations, with an alcohol licence running until 11pm. You can also bring your own drinks if you prefer. Getting here couldn't be simpler, with Strawberry Hill Station just a short walk away connecting you to central London, Richmond and Kingston. We've got parking on-site and full wheelchair access throughout. The tranquil campus setting means your guests can focus without city distractions, yet you're close enough to Heathrow and London for those travelling from further afield. This combination of accessibility and peaceful surroundings makes the Senior Common Room particularly popular for away days, private dining and drinks receptions that benefit from a touch of heritage charm.
