Doddington Hall & Gardens

Corporate & Celebration Hire

Step away from the everyday and into the calm of the Lincolnshire countryside. Whether you are planning a corporate gathering, private celebration, product launch, exclusive hire event or filming project, Doddington offers a distinctive estate setting where heritage and contemporary comfort come together.

Shaped over centuries, Doddington is a working estate with deep roots in heritage, seasonal food, wellbeing and sustainability. Flexible spaces, thoughtful hospitality, produce with provenance and carefully curated experiences allow each event to be tailored to suit its purpose, from focused strategy sessions and team building to networking, celebrations and creative launches. With opportunities to pause outdoors between sessions and enjoy the wider estate, it is a place that helps people think clearly, connect more easily and leave feeling restored.

Filming

Doddington Hall also offers an exceptional setting for exclusive hire and filming. With its iconic Elizabethan red-brick exterior, elegant Georgian interiors, beautiful gardens and sweeping parkland, the estate provides a wide range of striking locations for television, film and stills photography. Still a lived-in and much-loved family home, the Hall combines architectural significance with an authentic sense of history and atmosphere.

Originally built for Thomas Tailor, Registrar to the Bishop of Lincoln, Doddington’s mellow brick exterior and walled courtyards have changed very little since the late 16th century. In 1749, the Hall was inherited by John Delaval of Seaton Delaval in Northumberland, who undertook an extensive internal redecoration in the light and elegant Georgian style seen today. Together, the estate’s architecture, scenery and practical accessibility make it well suited to a wide range of productions, from period drama and factual documentary to contemporary editorial and commercial shoots. With convenient links to London, the Midlands and the North, alongside luxury on-site accommodation and award-winning catering, Doddington is also a highly crew-friendly location.
