meetings conferences and product launches

A Day in the Country is the ideal venue to hold your meeting, conference or product launch. The barn is interconnecting to provide two very spacious conference areas, The Aynho and Croughton Rooms. Each room offers the best of both worlds, the charm and character of an 18th century barn, combined with the sophistication of a modern conference suite. The Aynho Room is the main hospitality area where teas, coffees and hot bacon rolls are served in the morning when guests arrive and then our delicious finger food lunch at lunch time and finally tea with home-made cakes and scones at the end of the day. The Aynho Room is also used as a separate break out area for the larger conferences. The Croughton Room is the main conference room which boasts bags of natural light and a beautiful wooden floor. This room can hold over 200 theatre style and is ideal for product launches as well as the smaller boardroom meetings. Both the Aynho and Croughton Rooms lead out onto the gardens and patio area.

Wireless Internet is provided as well as screens, flip charts, pens, pads, bottled water and unlimited teas and coffees during the day.

The Patio Room is ideal for the smaller conferences, meetings, workshops and training sessions, this can also be used as separate break out areas for the larger conferences. The Patio Room leads out onto the patio and garden area and has it's own toilet and kitchen facilities. With the addition of The Patio Room, A Day in the Country offers more flexibility to cater for all requirements.
