Is there a license to sell alcohol?
Yes, we are licensed for late-night refreshments and amplified music. However, you will need to appoint a responsible person with a personal license to oversee any alcohol sales. We always encourage safe drinking/promotion only.
What time does the venue close?
Each event is different, however, we have licenses for music, entertainment and the service alcohol until 11 PM (Monday - Thursday) and 1 AM (Friday - Saturday)
Can I set up before the event?
We can be flexible on this, but only if the venue is not in use. To ensure you have enough time for setup and cleanup, we recommend booking additional time before and after your event.
What about our rubbish?
We have a general waste bin and a blue recycling bin available in the garden. However, you'll need to handle the disposal of glass bottles yourself and provide your own internal bins or bin bags for larger events.
Is there a cloakroom?
No, but we do have a clothes rail with hangers near the entrance that can hold around 20 coats, as well as storage space available upstairs.
