Dartmouth House; home to the English speaking union, is an elegant
mansion set in the heart of London’s Mayfair, providing the perfect
setting for a variety of events. The house offers a unique
atmosphere for any occasion and can be hired exclusively or rooms can
be taken individually.

English-Speaking Union since 1997 and with years of experience at the
venue, along with Silverleaf, we will assist you with the logistics of
your event and come up with delicious summer menu choices.
Dartmouth House and Leith’s have become synonymous with both grandeur and quality.
Dartmouth House boasts one of London’s rarest features – an enclosed
Courtyard, perfect for receptions and summer parties. The
fountain, architectural style and wrought iron tables and chairs
combine to create the atmosphere of a chateau terrace.
The Revelstoke Room, named after Dartmouth House’s previous owner, has
French windows leading out onto the Courtyard. The striking rich,
gold and green colour scheme gives the room a warm and luxurious feel.
The magnificent staircase provides a wonderful summer photo opportunity and can also be the setting for welcome speeches or signage.
Overlooking Charles Street and decorated in late 18th century style,
the long and small drawing rooms feature an Adam’s Fireplace,
beautifully draped full-length windows and an ornately carved
ceiling. The rooms are connected by large double doors, which can
be opened to allow them to be used simultaneously.
Featuring some of the finest Louis XIV walnut panelling in the country,
the Churchill Room overlooks the Courtyard and is a striking and
atmospheric setting for a range of summer events. The Churchill is
licensed for civil ceremonies, is popular for receptions and ideal for
dancing due to the sprung flooring.
