About this space

The Drawing room is situated on the first floor, decorated with wonderful hand-painted walls in a Chinoiserie design by artist Lucy Makin. The room is complete with a grand piano and overlooks a secluded terraced garden shaded by an old London plane tree. In the winter, the fire burns within the original opulent fireplace, and in the summer the French windows to the balcony provide a wonderful cooling breeze.

With a capacity of up to 60 people seated and 100 when combined with our Library

Located in Mayfair, moments away from Hyde Park, the University Women’s Club has offered itself to its members as a retreat from the stresses of London, serving well-sourced, delicious, and seasonal food alongside great coffee and delectable drinks within an elegant, secure space for over 100 years.

Our home in Audley Square was designed by TH Wyatt and built for Lord Arthur Russel in 1876 and was purchased by the members of the Russel Family in 1921.
