Castle Grove is a beautiful, historic 19th Century Manor House located in the leafy suburb of Headingley, just a few miles north of Leeds city centre.

Castle Grove is one of Headingley’s most elegant historic houses, dating back to 1834. Originally built as a gentleman’s residence for linen merchant Samuel Holmes, the property was subsequently transformed in the late Victorian era into a grand villa with sweeping staircases, bay windows, and a striking domed roof. Its beautifully preserved architectural details — from marble columns to ornate woodwork — reflect the prosperity and craftsmanship of the era, giving the venue its distinctive sense of character and charm.

In 1934 the building entered a new chapter, becoming the home of several Leeds Masonic Lodges. This long period of careful stewardship ensured that the house remained intact at a time when many similar villas were lost. Today, Castle Grove is a Grade II listed building and one of the country’s best-preserved examples of Victorian domestic architecture.

Available as a distinctive wedding, conference and events venue, Castle Grove blends historic grandeur with modern comfort. Guests can enjoy the richness of the original interiors alongside adaptable, stylish spaces suitable for all manner of celebrations, corporate events, meetings and private hire. With its unique heritage and timeless elegance, Castle Grove provides a memorable setting for any occasion.
