Meetings & Retreats

Allerton is a unique retreat away from the distractions and noise of city life— the secluded, intimate setting offers time and space for truly creative thinking. It has become a destination for meetings, conferences, and retreats for people from all over the world.

The historic Allerton Mansion features exquisite wood floors, marble fireplaces, elegant furnishings, and breathtaking views of the surrounding Meadow, reflecting pond, and woodlands. View pictures of our meeting spaces here.

Located just outside the charming town of Monticello, Illinois, Allerton is 25 miles from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign campus, an easy drive from the University’s Willard Airport, and a short excursion from Chicago, Indianapolis, or St. Louis.


For more information about hosting a meeting, conference, or retreat, please fill out a Request for Information or contact Allerton’s Sales Team at 217-333-3287 or allertonevents@illinois.edu.
