Common questions
What hours can I hire an event space?
08:00 to 18:00, with a minimum of 5 hours. Evening hire may be possible too — contact Patricia to work out the details.
How many people fit in each space?
The Music Room seats 40 people theatre style. Or take out the chairs and have an empty room to decorate with your own decorations. The Blue Room seats 20 people, theatre style, or take out the chairs and use it for your dance class or art studio. The Dining Room seats 16 at tables (in Cafe de Flore)
Can I hire more than one space?
Yes. The Music Room, Blue Room and Dining Room can be hired together. For a conference, for example, use the Blue Room for sessions and the Dining Room for lunch. Tell Patricia what you have in mind.
Can I have catering for an event?
Yes. Catering is optional, from Café de Flore.
Can I hire Café de Flore for a private event?
Yes. The Dining Room is the Café de Flore space. Hiring it for the day closes the café to the public, which is rare. Patricia will confirm the date with you — if you are travelling a distance, call ahead to check we are open that day.
Can we use the lawn with the Music Room?
Yes. The Music Room sash doors open onto the lawn, so an event can run inside and out, with outdoor catering such as a BBQ, or lawn games. The lawn is 15 by 30 metres and you can put up a marquee.
