About us
Wherstead Park is set within 17 acres of beautiful landscaped grounds in the heart of Suffolk - an area of outstanding natural beauty. Wherstead Park is the perfect choice for business or pleasure and combines the best of town and country. Just minutes away from the A14; one junction away from the A12, 3 miles from the centre of Ipswich and with Stansted just over an hour away, Wherstead Park is easily accessible to all. The Mansion has 15 training and meeting rooms, all sumptuously decorated and each with its own stunning view of the attractive landscaped gardens, with some rooms commanding panoramic views across to the river Orwell. The rooms vary in capacity from an intimate meeting for 6 to a conference of 60, with the two main reception rooms perfect for informal receptions for up to 100 or a formal dinner for 50.
