Private Hire
We all love to get together to celebrate special family events, birthdays, anniversaries, comings-of-age. Businesses are drawn to Paxton House’s versatile rooms and spacious grounds. Whatever you are celebrating, you can do it in style at Paxton House.
Private Parties & Family Celebrations
When you want to gather friends and family together, we have the perfect space. Sit down celebration meals or stand up canapés or buffets will have a special atmosphere in the beautiful surroundings of Paxton House. Depending on numbers, you can book our Hayloft Gallery or go grand in our Regency Picture Gallery. We can cater special afternoon teas, lunches or parties – bring us your ideas.
Think about including a special dedicated tour of the house or make use of our woodland gardens and riverside to make a day to remember.
Birthday parties
Take the stress out of organising a special birthday by bringing it to Paxton House. Passing through our gates, you enter a different world where everything seems possible. We can organise the catering and help you arrange all the little details that make a difference to your celebration. You can make the most of our magnificent Regency Picture Gallery or pick a theme and dress the Hayloft Gallery anyway you like.
The Hayloft Gallery is also perfect for kids parties. We are full of ideas to make it fun and the room provides a safe and flexible space for all age groups. The catering team in the Stables Tearoom can make cakes to order and devise a kid friendly menu.
Baby Showers
Every pregnancy deserves to be celebrated. Our Hayloft Gallery is the perfect space for a celebration with friends. We can safely accommodate any reasonable number of friends with babies who want to be part of your celebration and can be on hand to keep them entertained. We can make the decorations pink or blue or anything inbetween.
Celebrate a Life
If you want to celebrate the life of someone close to you in a way they would have really appreciated, book our Picture Gallery or Hayloft to allow everyone to get together to share some special memories. We can provide afternoon teas, lunches, wakes or something more formal.
The serenity of Paxton House and its extensive gardens and grounds will provide the perfect setting for remembrance. We may be able to arrange for ashes to be scattered in the grounds or from a traditional rowing boat on the river Tweed to conclude your farewell.
