Day Delegate Rates

Our Day Delegate Rate (DDR) packages bring everything a full day needs into a single per-person price. Room hire, catering from our partners Green & Fortune, and a dedicated team on-site, all in one convenient package. There's no need for add-ons, giving you the freedom to focus on what matters most: your event.

Two ways to book

Day Delegate Rate packages – from £77 per person
A single per-person price with room hire, refreshments and a Green & Fortune lunch all included. A HD 4K TV screen and a Yealink unit for Microsoft Teams and Zoom are included for meeting room packages; Cowdray Hall events require an AV package, charged separately.

Room hire only – from £400 per day
Hire a boardroom or meeting room by the full or half day and add catering to suit. Best for shorter sessions, board meetings or events that run to their own format.

Day Delegate Rates FAQs

Find answers to the most commonly asked questions about DDR Packages and Pricing.

What's the difference between a DDR package and room hire?

A Day Delegate Rate is a full-day, per-person price with catering included. Room hire covers the space and facilities only, and you add catering to suit, ideal for shorter sessions or events with their own format.

What's included in a Day Delegate Rate?

Room hire from 8.00am to 5.00pm, Wi-Fi, filtered water, onsite support and catering from Green & Fortune. Meeting room DDR packages also include basic AV, including a HD 4K TV screen and a Yealink unit compatible with both Microsoft Teams and Zoom.

For DDR packages in Cowdray Hall, an In-Person or Hybrid AV Package is required and charged separately.

Are there any additional costs?

DDR packages cover room hire and catering. For events in meeting rooms, a HD 4K TV screen and a Yealink unit are included.

For events in Cowdray Hall, an In-Person or Hybrid AV Package is required and charged separately. Additional catering items can also be added. See our AV Packages for full details.

Do you offer half-day DDR packages?

Our DDR packages are designed for full-day events. For shorter meetings, we recommend room hire with flexible catering add-ons.

Are discounts available for charities?

Yes. Our Purpose Package offers special rates for registered charities, with further discounts on Mondays and Fridays, and we offer reduced hire rates on off-peak dates.

Can we customise the catering?

Our menus are seasonal and carefully curated, and we’re happy to accommodate dietary requirements and minor adjustments so all guests are catered for. Additional items from Green & Fortune’s menu can also be added to enhance your catering experience.

Are there minimum numbers?

Minimum delegate numbers vary depending on the room or space selected. For some packages, including the Cowdray Club and Signature Package, a room hire supplement may apply if the minimum numbers are not met.
