The Temple of Pan

This venue although modest in size is not modest in its design. The internal walls are decorated with original plaster reliefs that stand out beautifully against rich green paintwork, giving an opulent feel to any occasion. The entrance is covered by a pillared portico which provides the building with the grandeur it deserves. The Temple of Pan makes the perfect backdrop for photographs of your special day.

The building can accommodate up to 40 guests, making it ideal for an intimate and relaxed wedding.
The surrounding gardens offer the perfect spot for a celebratory glass of champagne at the end of the ceremony.

Venue History: This neo-classical house makes a particularly grand statement of classical refinement.
Osterley Park was completed in 1576 by Sir Thomas Gresham, commercial agent and financial adviser to Elizabeth I, and it was described at the time as 'a faire and stateley brick house'.
The house was acquired by Sir Francis Child in 1713, a self-made man who rose from apprentice to owner of a firm of goldsmiths.
Two generations later this wealthy banking family commissioned the fashionable architect Robert Adam to transform the existing Tudor mansion into the palace of palaces.
The stunning interiors are one of the most complete surviving examples of his craft, with beautiful plasterwork and exquisite furniture, all designed specifically for Osterley Park.
