About Us

Set in 543 acres of quintessentially English parkland overlooking the Broadwater Lake, a romantic Palladian bridge and two private golf courses, Brocket Hall is an imposing 18th Century stately home of outstanding character and presence which over the years has entertained political summits and entertained royalty and heads of state. Maintaining all the ingredients of a bygone era, Brocket Hall offers an exciting variety of period and modern filming opportunities.

The Hall itself dates ... Moreback to the Regency era and was once the home of two prime ministers - Lord Melbourne and Lord Palmerston. It retains many of its original features including 30 sumptuous bedrooms, each with its own distinctive style, including the Prince Regent Suite with its hand-painted original Chinese-themed wallpaper. The Hall’s regal ballroom, complete with its Francis Wheatley ceiling, witnessed the introduction of the Waltz to England by Lady Caroline Lamb who is said to haunt the house, while the long corridors and hidden doors whisper of illicit liaisons and intrigue in high places, and below stairs.

In addition to the Hall, the Estate still retains some of its Capability Brown inspired gardens, and landscaping as well as an old hunting lodge, now the internationally acclaimed Michelin-starred restaurant Auberge du Lac which nestles comfortably on the banks of the Broadwater with magnificent views across the estate to the Hall, invoking an atmosphere of tranquillity and style.

Surrounded by its two immaculately maintained golf courses and set amongst ancient woodland, Brocket Hall is a true hide-away in the heart of Hertfordshire (and the place to which Lady Thatcher retreated to write her memoirs). Just 22 miles from central London it is easily accessible by major road, international airport and rail links and benefits from two private helipads.
