Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum guest requirement for booking the Business space at Ravens Ait Island?
The venue requires a minimum of 45 guests for any event booking at Ravens Ait Island due to the size of the rooms. Events with fewer than 45 guests cannot be accommodated.

How does ferry transport to the island work and what are the costs?
Ferry collection and drop-off is complimentary for all events. The venue operates a shuttle-style service with 2 boats running back and forth continuously, taking only 30-45 seconds to reach the island with no waiting time for guests. A larger 50-seater boat is available for 1 hour on arrival (subject to availability).
What are the venue's operating hours and music restrictions?
Music is allowed until 11:45PM and all guests must vacate the island by midnight. The venue cannot organize coach or shuttle services between hotels and the island, so guests must arrange their own transport to the ferry departure point.
What deposit is required and when must it be paid?
A 50% deposit is required to secure the date if the event is within 6 months. All dates are secured on a first-come, first-served basis, and the venue cannot hold dates during the consultation period.
What bar services and discounts are available?
The venue offers a 10% discount on all pre-ordered drinks. Bar packages can be arranged as either a bar tab or pre-order system, with typical minimum spends ranging from £1,200-£1,800 depending on group size.

What accommodation options are available nearby?
The venue recommends Hampton Suites, Warren House Hotel, and Crowne Plaza Surbiton for accommodation. Guests must arrange their own accommodation as the island venue does not provide overnight stays, and transport between hotels and the ferry point must be organized separately.
