Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery in Ealing, west London, can be hired for company away days, strategy sessions, receptions, private dinners, award ceremonies and weddings. Its spaces range from a 12-person boardroom to a gallery that holds 250 guests standing. The venue is a Grade I listed manor designed by Sir John Soane, with a contemporary gallery, a garden events room and landscaped grounds.
Seminars and company events
The venue sells corporate events as workshops, strategy sessions, team celebrations and awards. A whole site takeover combines indoor and outdoor spaces with catering, audiovisual support and a dedicated event manager. Team building and away day packages add workshops to the day. For a summer retreat, groups choose between rooms in the historic manor and the contemporary Garden Room for sessions, breakout discussions and presentations, then move to the private gardens. Festive parties can mix private dining in the manor, craft workshops in the Garden Room and a cocktail party in the gallery. Corporate brochures for each format are available on request.
The Hub is the room for smaller sessions. It is a meeting and learning space next to the original Georgian entrance lodge and takes 12 people boardroom style, 24 theatre style or 30 standing.
Weddings and receptions

Soane's Garden Room, with large bifold doors onto the walled garden, is suited to dinners and dancing. The Colonnade, a covered stone walkway with a private entrance, works for a small drinks reception or photographs. The venue also takes parties, memorials and wakes.

History and setting
Sir John Soane remodelled Pitzhanger Manor as his country home in the early 19th century. Today it combines the Georgian manor, a gallery in what was Ealing's lending library in 1939, and the walled kitchen garden that holds the Garden Room. The grounds sit beside Walpole Park. Exhibitions change through the year, and some rooms can be unavailable during changeovers, so confirm dates early.
Getting there
The address is Ealing Green, London W5 5EQ. The venue describes itself as minutes from Heathrow, Bond Street and Canary Wharf by the Elizabeth Line.
