The Great Hall

The Great Hall and the Saloon work perfectly together to provide a spectacular dinner venue. Guests enter the Palace along the up-lit Colonnades into The Long Library and through the State Rooms into the Saloon for a Champagne reception. The Saloon is the State Dining Room and the Duke and his family still celebrate Christmas here every year. Louis Leguarre painted the murals and ceiling and the two fireplaces create a warm and intimate atmosphere. The Great Hall can accommodate 150 guests for dinner and 500 for a reception; and the Saloon 75 guests for dinner.
