Our Spaces
The Village Hall has been fully refurbished and extended in 2020 and now offers a superb local venue for all types of uses, including formal functions, social engagements, business meetings and commercial hire.
Although housed in the original 1905 building, the facility has been brought spectacularly up-to-date with free wi-fi and internet connection, state of the art Audio Visual equipment, new comfortable furnishings and of course, the typical friendly welcome for which the village is famed.
The spacious accommodation is light, modern and airy. The oak floor is robust enough for any activity, from playgroups through to ballroom dancing, and for those summer days, why not spread out onto the adjacent terrace.
