Please click on the photographs below if you would like to see a more detailed specification for each room.
The Witham Room
This early-Victorian room with high ceilings and lots of natural light overlooks the town. It is a great space for an all-day meeting, a fitness workshop, an intimate wedding lunch, christening party or funeral tea.

Gallery
You can hire the gallery to exhibit your work, or – depending on the exhibition schedule – you could seek to use it as a sophisticated space in which to entertain your clients once the public has gone home.

The County Room
This flexible and airy room is ideal for meetings, lectures or creative workshops (complete with discretely-positioned sink!).

Victorian Music Hall
This spacious heritage room can be set up in a variety of different ways. From an indoor market during the day to a lively ceilidh for a hundred or more the same evening, the room can be styled to meet your needs.

The Garden and Terrace
Our beautifully kept walled garden, complete with a Shepherdess Hut, can be hired as an add-on to a room booking.

Café Bar
Depending on the time of day and the event programme, you can also hire the café bar for your exclusive use.
