Valentines Mansion & Gardens is a distinctive outdoor and indoor venue set within Ilford, offering a quieter alternative to central London while remaining well connected to the city. The mansion itself carries a sense of character, with wooden floors and natural light lending the interior spaces a warmth that more purpose-built venues rarely replicate.
The Drawing Room, at 75 m², accommodates up to 70 in a theatre layout, while the smaller Gallery at 44 m² seats up to 40 in the same configuration - useful when a breakout or parallel session is needed. On-site facilities include AV equipment, flatscreen display screens, high-speed internet, air conditioning, and dedicated breakout rooms, giving organisers a reasonable working infrastructure without relying on external suppliers.
Gants Hill Underground Station is an 11-minute walk away, and London City Airport is reachable in around 22 minutes by car. Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is 14 minutes by road, with London Stadium a further two minutes beyond that.
