Venues of Excellence (VOE), the UKโs leading consortium for independent venues has just welcomedย Weston Park as its first exclusive hire venue in Shropshire into its membership.
The consortium which has 48 independent venues in its portfolio prides itself on the diversity of its membership, representing many of the leading UK venues for conferences, meetings, and events.ย With a commitment to quality and excellence, the consortium has grown from strength to strength over the past few months as independent venues look to become part of a sales and marketing consortium to align their brand with.
Built in 1671, the beauty and tranquillity of the House and Park at Weston is the result of centuries of creativity, collecting and patronage of artists and craftsman, by generations of one family, the Bridgemans, Earls of Bradford. These superb collections of fine art and antiques make the House and ideal place for any business or private event. Set in 1,000 acres of Capability Brown parkland delegates can take the opportunity to embrace the outdoors and the venue regularly plays host to activity days, team building, product launches, festivals and events celebrating success.
Gifted to the nation in 1986, Weston Park is owned and maintained by the Weston Park Foundation an independent charity which is responsible for the on-going preservation of the estate.
