About Ponsbourne
A very warm welcome to Ponsbourne.
After undergoing a substantial renovation, we are excited to welcome you to a spectacular vision of 21st Century hospitality, now realised at Ponsbourne.
Perfect for relaxing breaks, weddings, private dining, conferences and delectable dining facilities in our restaurant and bars. This peaceful oasis is a breath-taking statement in contemporary interior design complemented by high standards of food and service.
The house, dating back to 1876,
offers a blend of classical elegance brought stunningly up-to-date by stylish and creative design. The main house, now boasting superb function facilities, offers tradition and comfort in keeping with the period, yet still offering the superb modern facilities expected today. Set in landscaped gardens, Ponsbourne has retained many of the original features which have been complemented by later additions.
Set in the heart of 200 acres of beautiful Hertfordshire countryside.
Ponsbourne is an ideal location just 15 miles North from central London, 15 minutes from J25 of the M25 and a 45 minute drive from Stanstead airport. Our closest train stations are Cheshunt or Cuffley station.

In recent times, the opulent Ponsbourne Hotel has been both a school for children in the countryside during the Second World War and St Dominic’s Priory.
It was taken over by Brian Comer in 2018 and subsequently restored to its former glory, with original features being perfectly complemented by the addition of modern facilities and luxurious furnishings.
The challenge of renovating such a classical building is one that was not undertaken lightly, as experts from around the world were brought in to make sure that everything blended together perfectly. Here, our guests now have the opportunity to enjoy both the old and the new, their own personal slice of history in the modern world.
Given the serene location in which the hotel is set, it is easy to see how the lines between a blend of classical elegance and up-to-date style blur together seamlessly here. The main house manages to offer a glimpse of tradition whilst also offering all of the extras that you would expect from a world-class hotel.
During your time with us, you will be presented with every opportunity to explore some of the modern facilities that have been added to our property, including an array of superb function facilities and ensuite rooms. These have all been specially designed so that they can be used for a multitude of different purposes, from extravagant weddings to large conference meetings.
When our guests are not relaxing, exploring the hotel or indulging in some of their favourite activities, we like to make sure that they are well fed. In our opinion, the quality of the food that a hotel offers should always be second to none.
The Ponsbourne Hotel is home to the 1876 Empress of India, a place that has been carefully considered to offer you a dining experience that is just as chic as it is contemporary. West Indian-born Head Chef Tyler Dawson recently joined our innovative team, bringing with him years of culinary experience. In his previous role, he was appointed Executive Sous Chef for Marriot Autograph Hotels. Guests are also invited to enjoy British cuisine in the Ponsbourne Brassiere.
