The Cloisters

The Cloisters is a stunning historical space that has played host to many diverse events over its lifetime. Originally a place of contemplation for those fallen in war, it has become a favoured photography backdrop for weddings due to its gorgeous arched walkway.

A redevelopment completed in early 2019 has increased the available space for events and gatherings, as well as upgrading the lighting, seating and overall amenity. Book your next event here and enjoy!
