The Function Room
It's no secret that the wedding industry is growing year by year, with venues opening and closing all over the country. We have thought long and hard about what we can offer our clients and have created affordable and quality packages. Some venues will charge high and quite honestly in my opinion, unjustified prices. We aim to offer a fairly priced package to all our clients.
Our beautiful function room has a modest capacity of 120. (96 seated) We boast a well stocked licensed bar, selling all the popular spirits and beers including Carling Black Label, Carling black fruits cider, Peroni, coors light, Guiness, cask beers, Tuffers old and clod hopper from local brewery The Boot in Repton. Alongside a great spirit selection including flavoured vodka's and Gin's.
A good sized stage with a full professional PA system gives use fabulous sound throughout the room. We offer package parties which include a dressed room, buffet or hot meal and entertainment. DJ, disco and a singer. (depending on package option)
Professional, reliable and affordable packages.
