About this space

The Garden Marquee is a Private outdoor space in Dunston Hall and a fabric-lined marquee that creates a room-like setting within the hotel grounds.

Design: The interior presents a neutral palette of white canvas, soft draping and carpeted underfoot that keeps the focus on table arrangements. The ceiling rises to a central peak with traditional swags and suspended chandeliers that provide decorative, even lighting.

Features: The space permits hosts to play their own music and to bring their own DJ. The space receives abundant natural light through clear side panels. The layout is step-free and wheelchair accessible, and central support poles influence how furniture can be arranged.

Ideal for: Groups seeking an intimate-to-medium-scale seated dinner or a relaxed standing reception in a sheltered, room-like marquee.

What sets it apart: The marquee opens directly onto the hotel's formal lawns, allowing a direct flow between the tented space and the surrounding grounds.
