The Wren Room at The Ned

Minimum spend requirements vary by room size and guest count. The Drawing Room requires £3,250 including VAT for up to 26 guests, while The Tapestry Room requires £7,500 including VAT for up to 80 guests. All catering consumed during your meeting counts toward this spend, with any shortfall charged as room hire.

Standard access is from 8:00am to 5:00pm for day meetings, with some rooms offering 8:30am to 5:00pm access. Setup time is included within these hours, so plan accordingly for any AV or catering arrangements.

You must add a mandatory 14.5% discretionary service charge to all food and beverage consumption. AV equipment and any third-party services (flowers, entertainment) are additional costs on top of the minimum spend.

The Drawing Room accommodates up to 26 guests in boardroom style, while The Tapestry Room handles up to 80 guests in cabaret style or 120 on round tables. Capacity may be reduced if AV equipment is required.

Full-day packages typically include arrival tea/coffee with breakfast items, mid-morning refreshments, working lunch, afternoon tea/coffee break, water throughout the day, branded stationery, and a dedicated Events Manager on-hand throughout your event.

The venue offers a 5-day complimentary hold on available dates. This gives you time to finalize details and confirm your booking without losing the space to other inquiries.

Yes, some rooms have specific requirements. For groups of 12 or fewer, you may be directed to individual reservations rather than private hire. The venue considers groups of 12+ as private events requiring minimum spends.

AV equipment is available as an additional cost beyond the minimum spend. The venue can accommodate screens for presentations and microphones for speakers, with setup included in your access hours.

Extended hours may be possible but would likely require discussion with the events team and potentially affect minimum spend requirements. Standard business meeting access is designed for 8am-5pm operations.

The minimum spend remains fixed regardless of final guest count. If your food and beverage consumption doesn't meet the minimum, the shortfall is charged as room hire to reach the required spend level.
