Historic Yorkshire Country House Transforms into Unique Corporate Event Venue
The Highfield, a historic country house nestled in Yorkshire, is transforming into a unique venue for corporate events. The hotel, owned by Stephen and Katie Leach, combines heritage with modern functionality, offering business travellers meaningful experiences with a sense of place, as co-owner Andy Lampard puts it.
The Highfield's versatile design includes flexible layouts, wellness breaks, and inclusive spaces, catering to multigenerational teams. The hotel's philosophy, 'Merchant Luxury', is rooted in Yorkshire craftsmanship, rich interiors, and authenticity. It blends heritage, hospitality, and sustainability, providing inspiring and practical event spaces.
Events can spill out into the hotel's tranquil garden terraces, allowing delegates to recharge. The hotel's restaurant, The Mill & Vine, serves seasonal menus using produce from the property's own kitchen garden and local growers, promoting sustainability. The newly opened private Quarters Penthouse, featuring original art, has become a favourite space at The Highfield.
Set within eight acres of landscaped gardens, near York, Hull, and the East Yorkshire coast, The Highfield is becoming a distinctive destination for corporate gatherings in the UK. Its unique blend of history, modern functionality, and sustainability makes it an appealing choice for business travellers seeking meaningful experiences.
