Goodwood
Famed for the many glittering gatherings that have taken place over the past three centuries, Goodwood House is the perfect place to host dinners, weddings, landmark birthday parties and other special occasions. Inside this grand home, which lies at the heart of the Goodwood Estate, the Regency State Rooms contain a magnificent art collection that includes paintings by George Stubbs and Canaletto.
The Kennels, Goodwood’s Sporting Members’ Club, is a fabulous home-from-home that benefits from chic interiors and handsome Georgian architecture. At the Motor Circuit, the Race Control Building and Jackie Stewart Pavilion both provide trackside opportunities for private catering – ideal for corporate or private track day groups. You can learn to fly at the historic Goodwood Aerodrome or enjoy one of our Ultimate Driving experiences, which all take place within this magnificent 12,000-acre estate.
Set on the top of the South Downs, the racecourse is an unforgettable setting for your wedding breakfast and civil ceremony amidst the incomparable atmosphere of racedays.
Goodwood is the perfect place for all your business needs; a quintessentially English setting amongst beautiful West Sussex countryside combined with a diverse range of venues and a reputation for superbly executed corporate meetings and events.
