Facilities & Hire
Due to new social distancing measurements we have changed our hire services and you can find out more below:
- Seating capacity has changed so we cannot offer our usual 80 sittings, but once we understand your event further we can advise on capacity. At present its around 30 people if people sit 1.5m apart. This includes less tables but we have lots of coffee tables. Speak to us about tables required.
- We now offer filming and streaming of your conference or event. There is an additional charge for this but as you are paying for less delegates it often works out the same. Read more.
- Our food and drink service for conferences is still available but delivered in a different way. Read more here for conferences.
- Our food and drink service for private evening parties is still available but delivered differently. Read more here for parties.
