Set in the beautiful terraced gardens and parkland of Waterlow Park, Lauderdale House is a medium sized venue that gives itself over to a great variety of events, from exhibitions and private function to workshops and gigs.

In the daytime there are near-constant activities for kids which means you can expect a few screaming nippers to get under your feet as you wander round. They run workshops for adults (from life-drawing to tango and everything in between) and host a programme of concerts where West End divas rub shoulders with the next generation of talent.

With a fabulous setting and great acoustics, if you get a chance to attend a party or show here, you should.
