Garden games like giant Jenga are permitted, and unamplified string duos/quartets are allowed for background music. However, fairground rides and inflatables are strictly prohibited. Outdoor speaker hire is available for background music, but amplified entertainment options are limited due to location restrictions and Crown Estate regulations.

Crown Estate approval is required for garden bookings but is described as a 'speedy process.' Payment terms and deposit requirements aren't specified in the available information, but the venue indicates flexibility to adjust proposals for different needs and budgets.
Are there restrictions on timing, setup, or event types?
Standard daytime hire runs 9am-5pm, with evening options 6pm-11pm available. Gardens must be vacated by 9pm due to Crown Estate regulations. The venue accommodates various event types including conferences, weddings, summer parties, and corporate events. Setup and breakdown timing isn't specifically detailed, but same-week bookings may have limited catering options available.
