About this space

The Lounge, a Lounge in The Ashcroft, is a semi-private space defined by flexible seating clusters for informal socialising and meetups.

Design: Neutral carpet and pale walls sit beneath a low, sloping ceiling and warm wall lights. Seating mixes leather armchairs and patterned upholstered chairs grouped around low coffee tables, producing a compact, domestic scale rather than a formal hall.

Features: A fixed service counter and movable low tables support basic bar or refreshment setups. The space includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning and a PA system with speakers, and the seating can be rearranged to form conversational clusters or a small presentation area.

Ideal for: Small social groups seeking a relaxed, seated setting for conversation and informal meetups.

What sets it apart: A pair of double doors gives the room direct access to the venue's gardens.

What guests say: The Lounge is kept clean and benefits from helpful, attentive staff.
