The Marlborough
Three Earls of Marlborough lived here. On Sir James Ley’s death his son Henry became the 2nd Earl and MP for Westbury and Devizes. Sir James’ grandson, James, became the 3rd Earl but died fighting the Dutch fleet off Lowestoft.
This room contains desks and space for meeting, training or “break-outs”.
The Main Hall
This was the heart of the original Jacobean manor, extensively embellished in 1837 with a fireplace large enough for any “Fireside Chat”!
With an 87-inch presentation screen and speakers, this space easily converts into a Conference Venue/Event Space, in theatre or banquet style for up to 120 delegates.
The Conservatory
This was originally created as a “Palm House” by philanthropist Henry Ludlow in the 1800s. It then became a swimming pool in the 1970s, a Conservatory under the National Trust, and today it houses our Café.
It has AV equipment and is used for talks and conferences, as well as events for the public at weekends.

“I have been working for over 20 years and have travelled up and down the country using various venues and meeting rooms. I have to say in all those 20 years I have never experienced such excellent facilities as I did at Heywood House.”
