Event hosting at Babylon

View through the greenhouse at Babylon

We are able to offer a bespoke service for private hire and private events at Babylon. Located within the Ashdown Forest – an area of outstanding natural beauty – our location is a stunning and peaceful setting for your special event.

We have three areas at Babylon that are available for event hire, either separately or exclusively as a whole and our outside decking area is a wonderful space for your guests to mingle beforehand whilst admiring the local landscape and enjoying a glass of English wine.

The Greenhouse

You can dine in our greenhouse, surrounded by plants and enjoy the sparkle from our disco ball when the sun starts to set. Our greenhouse can comfortably seat up to 30 people, or more if informal gathering is required.

The Courtyard

If you are looking for an outdoor area then the Courtyard provides a flexible space with options for alfresco dining. The stretch tent provides an undercover area, perfect for shading from the sunshine, but with an airy feel and views across the nursery.
