Dates are offered on either 1st option (confirmed availability) or 2nd option (provisional hold). The venue can provisionally hold dates while you make decisions. Some larger spaces may be unavailable on certain dates, and the venue will suggest alternative dates if your preferred date is not available.

The venue has minimum budget requirements and will decline proposals if the maximum budget is insufficient for their packages. For example, they declined a £60 per person budget request, indicating their packages typically start higher. They provide reduced rates for certain packages but maintain minimum spending thresholds for most event types.

The venue offers various catering options including finger buffet lunches (£32.50-£54 per person plus VAT), fork buffet lunches, arrival refreshments (£5.75-£6.90 per person plus VAT), and drinks on consumption basis. They can accommodate specific dietary requirements and have current menus available for reference. Some events can combine different catering elements rather than using set packages.

Events typically run during business hours with some flexibility for evening events until 11pm-midnight. Host access is usually provided 1 hour before guest arrival (e.g., 5pm host access for 6pm guest arrival). Setup time can be arranged, including evening before access for rehearsals (4 hours for setup/rehearsal). Breakdown time is factored into event scheduling with specific departure times agreed in advance.
