New and Improved De Vere Venue

De Vere Horsley Estate, located in East Horsley, Surrey, has completed a £1.3million refurbishment to its reception, restaurant and 51 of its bedrooms located in Horsley Place, a distinctive contemporary hotel which sits alongside the historic mansion house, Horsley Towers in over 75 acres of grounds.

The reception at Horsley Place has been transformed with new flooring, contemporary furniture and artwork to reflect the estate's illustrious past. The reception is now also home to the De Vere Pantry, a self-service shop which sells sweet treats and local goodies available for guests to buy 24-hours a day.

The recent refurbishment work has seen a total of 79 rooms be fully renovated in the last year. There are now 45 academy doubles, 28 deluxe doubles, 12 superior rooms, along with the creation of five new Horsley Place suites with some featuring private terraces. The newly designed rooms offer a relaxed and contemporary design, are complete with walk-in showers, Penhaligon's toiletries and smart TVs – perfect for staying wedding guests.

The Brasserie, the hotel's restaurant, has been rebranded and refreshed with new tiled backdrops and serving areas, complete with new modern artwork. The contemporary décor continues in the newly refurbished adjoining bar where guests can enjoy a selection of cocktails, wine, beer and soft drinks of their choice in a cosy and relaxing environment.

In the grounds of De Vere Horsley Estate is a 19th-century mansion house, Horsley Towers, which has an intriguing history; it was re-designed by Sir Charles Barry, who also designed the Houses of Parliament and Highclere Castle. After being the marital home of Ada Lovelace, the property was bought by Sir Thomas Sopwith, the inventor of the Sopwith Camel aeroplane. Horsley Towers is a unique venue, which features 28 bedrooms, two large event spaces, three meeting rooms and acres of beautiful grounds which can be hired out exclusively for events offering guests an unforgettable experience.
