A large, spacious hall with a newly renovated kitchen is available for hire.

The hall can be hired for events of up to 200 people or, if there is seating required, such as for a wedding, up to 150 people.  The small hall can be hired separately for meetings and smaller activity groups. Licensed events can be held here.

The kitchen is newly refurbished with a range cooker, larder fridge, hot cupboard, tea and coffee making facilities, crockery and serving hatches to the main and small hall.

There is a stage with lighting, a piano, a new sound system, a screen and tables and chairs.
