About this space

The Library is a private dining room in Ayers House characterised by a formal layout and period proportions.

Design: The room has high ceilings and a deep red carpet that anchors a long, formal dining arrangement. The furnishings pair gold Chiavari chairs and white table linen with framed artwork and soft overhead chandeliers.

Features: The room includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, a PA system and speakers, and it allows guest music. The layout provides a long central dining table with Chiavari chairs, space for AV setup, a step-free guest entrance and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Private dining groups and corporate teams seeking a formal, seated meal in a traditional, quiet interior.

What sets it apart: A focal wall of floor-to-ceiling bookcases and a working marble fireplace provide an original period backdrop.
