Five Grade II Listed Townhouses With a Rich Cultural History.

Designed in 1858 by Sir Charles James Freake, Cromwell Place was the home and studio to artists such as Sir John Lavery. Maintaining the building's period features, spaces have been transformed to house galleries, private work spaces, art storage and a Club Room.

Opened in October 2020

It is so important to have purpose-built spaces which encourage creativity and support the arts. This is why I’m delighted that Cromwell Place is cultivating a vibrant and collaborative cultural community in beautiful surroundings for its Members and visitors.

The Club Room

The social heart of Cromwell Place, our Club Room is open exclusively to Members and their guests. It's a space to unwind, connect and entertain, with a menu curated by Michelin-starred chef Ollie Dabbous and champagne from Ruinart. Designed by Lambart & Browne, the Club Room maintains the palette and aesthetic integrity of one of Cromwell Place’s most famous historic inhabitants, artist, Sir John Lavery. The space consists of two rooms which offer refreshments throughout the day, and may be reserved for private functions.

Art Storage

We offer secure on-site art storage for short term use. The fully secure, climate-controlled facility is protected by a gas supression system, biometric access control and 24/7 security. Our external art storage partner, IBI, is 30 minutes away by car and will facilitate longer term needs.
