Shendish
Manor Is The Perfect Birthday Party Venue For History Buffs
It’s fair to say that the country house known as
Shendish Manor in Apsley has assumed no shortage of identities over its long
history. While our current building dates back
to Victorian times, the history of the site stretches back to the 13th
century, when land in the area was granted to Ralf de Chenduit – and it seems
that this beautiful spot in Hertfordshire has been very nearly ‘all things to
all men’ (and women) ever since.
For much of the 19th and 20th
centuries, for example, our building was in the
possession of the Longman family of publishers, and it served as a
British Army camp in the First World War.
The property was later purchased by John Dickinson
Stationery and became a sports and social club. Then, when it was turned into a hotel and conference centre in the 1990s, yet another new chapter in
its distinguished history began – leading to its present reputation as one of
the finest options for Birthday Party Hall Hire
In Hertfordshire.
A
Building With A Great Past, But Which Can Also Create Future Memories
While there is no shortage of practical reasons to
choose Shendish Manor as your birthday party venue, including the ease with
which it can be reached from London, Watford
and Hemel Hempstead, we have to be honest: this is a
venue for the heart, even more than it is for the head.
The Victorian splendour
of the building itself, for instance, is almost unparalleled even by the many
other fine historic venues in this most
beautiful of counties. Much the same can be said
for the 160 acres of surrounding parkland and formal gardens, and as for the
suites in which you can hold your main birthday celebrations – well, they really do have to be seen to be believed.
Whether you fall in love with the
Apsley Suite in our east wing with its elegant decor and sparkling chandeliers,
or instead the timeless Manor House incorporating such marvellous original
features as a Jacobean fireplace, sweeping staircase and high ornate ceilings,
if you are a history buff, you will be more than grateful for having made
Shendish Manor your choice.
Don’t compromise when it comes to birthday party hall
hire in Hertfordshire. Choose the dream historic venue that also makes a lot of
sense in ‘real life’ – Shendish Manor.
