Frequently asked questions

Planning your event

How many people can Sporting Lodge Inns accommodate?

Yes. Food and drink can be shaped around the schedule, from refreshments and working lunches to buffets, private dining and bar packages. Current menus and minimum spends should be included in the proposal.

Are bedrooms available for delegates?

Yes. The hotel has 140 bedrooms, allowing organisers to combine the event with overnight accommodation, subject to availability.
