Library
Capacity:
20 people
Pricing: £0.00-£23.00 per hour
This is a welcoming room located on the ground floor, with an extensive bay window offering a beautiful view of the garden.
The walls are lined with the Centre’s own library and there is a seed library, window seats and a fireplace, with a round table and chairs on a sanded floor under standard and ceiling lamps. It suits reading groups, small meetings, supervision, study and quiet work.
Please note that the library is not a common area — it is yours for the booking, and it is your responsibility to tell your group which parts of the building they may use. The Studio may be in use on weekday evenings and at weekends, which can carry some noise; if you are considering private hire of the Library, please talk to the office first.

Garden / Fire Pit
Capacity:
100 people
Pricing: £0.00-£23.00 per hour
Our beautiful tranquil community Garden is a lovely place to take a break during workshops and events. Sit on our patio, wander around our permaculture garden and vegetable beds, or sit quietly by the pond or ancient holy well.
The lawn and the fire pit are what you book here, and the booking includes use of the kitchen and the toilets. A marquee can be added for weather cover, and firewood can be bought separately. The fire pit is lit only with a member of staff’s permission, or by a private event that has booked it.
The garden stays open to everyone else using the Centre, so this is not exclusive use — please be mindful of anyone in the Library or the Garden Room, and of our neighbours. There is a pond, so children and animals must not be left unsupervised. A cancellation for weather at short notice is charged in full, so if your event cannot go ahead in poor weather, please book an indoor room as a backup.
