Frequently Asked Questions
What are the venue hire costs for the Marble Hall and Gallery for evening dining events?
The Marble Hall and Gallery costs £3,000 (VAT exempt) for Monday-Friday 6:30pm to 10pm hire. For weekend events (Saturday-Sunday), the minimum hire charge is £6,000 (VAT exempt) for 8 hours between 8:30am-10pm. Time extensions beyond 10pm are available at an additional £550 (VAT exempt).
What is the maximum capacity for dining events in the Marble Hall and Gallery?
The Marble Hall and Gallery can accommodate up to 200 guests for a standing reception. For seated dining events, the space works best when combined with other areas like the Library, which can seat up to 120 guests for dinner.
Can I combine the Marble Hall with other spaces for a dinner and reception event?
Yes, you can hire both the Marble Hall and Gallery with the Library for £4,950 (VAT exempt) from 6:30pm to 10pm Monday-Friday. This allows for dinner in the Library followed by reception and dancing in the Marble Hall, or vice versa.
What catering options are available and who provides the food?
All catering is provided by approved suppliers including Company of Cooks, Blue Strawberry, and Food by Dish who can provide bespoke quotes based on your requirements and budget. You cannot bring external food into the venue, and guests cannot bring food back inside if they go off-site.
What audio-visual equipment is available for dining events?
Available AV equipment includes PA System (up to 2 handheld mics and/or bluetooth connectivity to play music) for £198, LED screen for £165, and staging block for £55. All AV prices are subject to VAT and include technical support from a specialized AV technician.
Is there a cloakroom facility available for guests?
Yes, there is a cloakroom available located next to the Marble Hall and Gallery. You can choose to have this unmanned/self-service or opt for a fully staffed service (pricing available on request).
What are the booking requirements and how far in advance can I book?
The venue currently takes bookings up to 12 months ahead. Weekend events require the minimum hire charge due to the venue not usually being open on weekends, which includes 8-hour access, setup of chosen spaces, use of a technician if required, and an on-site event manager for the day.
Are there any restrictions on decorations or setup for dining events?
While decorations can be arranged prior to events, specific restrictions are not detailed in available information. The venue includes setup of your chosen spaces in the hire fee, and you'll have access to an on-site event manager for the day to coordinate arrangements.
What happens if I need to extend my event beyond the standard 10pm finish time?
Time extensions beyond 10pm are available at an additional cost of £550 (VAT exempt). This allows for late night entertainment and dancing, making it suitable for events that want to continue into the evening.
Does the venue accommodate weddings and what are the limitations?
The venue can host wedding dinners and receptions but cannot host wedding ceremonies. For wedding receptions, the same pricing structure applies with options to combine spaces like the Library for dinner and Marble Hall for reception and dancing.
