Mottisfont Abbey’s history shows, quite simply, that it is a perfect place for meetings and fine dining. It has been said that Saxon freemen may have held their village moots, or meetings on this site before the Priory was built in 1201 by William Briwere, trusted advisor to Richard the Lionheart. The monks started offering hospitality around 800 years ago to visiting pilgrims. Then, in the last century, it became something of a retreat for the London social circle, which included George Bernard Shaw. Today you can continue this fine tradition of socialising in a fabulous setting, redolent with history and surrounded by beautiful gardens and parkland.

Mottisfont Abbey has a wide choice of distinctive rooms offering great flexibility. It is particularly ideal for entertaining guests for dinner in the Dining Room, intimate meetings in The Yellow Room or a drinks reception in the Long Gallery.

The perfectly manicured lawns, adjacent to the River Test, provide a perfect location for drinks receptions, and the North Lawn and Parkland can host wedding receptions or corporate events for up to 500 in a marquee.
