In January 2023, we embarked on an innovative conservation project to reinstate the roof of The Orangery to its original slate composition. It is the first Grade 1 listed building to carry out a project of this kind. This process involved the removal of the existing glass ceiling, replacing it with a hand crafted timber and slate structure.
Over the course of the last three centuries, The Orangery has fulfilled a range of roles, from a greenhouse and conservatory to a theatre, an art gallery, office spaces, and most recently a restaurant.
In October 2023, our refurbished Orangery is set to open. Enjoy refreshments at our new and fresh bar space or make a reservation for a scrumptious Sunday lunch. Experience elegant dining with our Afternoon Tea, featuring authentically British, house-made scones, delightful sweet treats, and an array of dainty sandwiches.
