About this space

Garden & Café Hire at Rotunda

Our garden offers a beautiful natural backdrop that feels deeply grounding and relaxing, filled with seasonal flowers, herbs and fruit trees.
During weekdays and daytime hours, it’s possible to hire a semi‑private section of the garden with a wooden table and bench for up to 12 people, making it ideal for small meetings or gatherings. At weekends, the garden is available for exclusive use, offering a peaceful and private setting for your event.
The full garden can comfortably accommodate up to 40 people, with seating for 30 in the main square. We welcome bookings for group events and private celebrations.

Garden Spaces
The garden is made up of four semi‑private areas, each with its own character:

Main Square – a spacious gathering area with benches and tables, surrounded by apple blossom trees. This space also includes a food‑growing area and a garden kitchen currently being developed.
Woodland Area – featuring a mini forest trail and a circular green space beneath a hawthorn tree, with wooden benches that work beautifully for circle gatherings.
Seating Grove – a dedicated seating area with a solid wooden table and built‑in benches, set beneath an arch of flowering trees.


Ideal for Events & Activities
This urban garden escape is well suited to:

Work socials and networking events
Private celebrations, birthday parties and hen parties
Christenings, graduations, baby showers and funerals

The space also works particularly well for:

Nature‑themed art classes
Forest school and children’s activities
Cooking sessions
Photo shoots
Music, poetry and spoken‑word events

We welcome community groups and social clubs looking to host regular or one‑off workshops, as well as artists, yoga and meditation practitioners and children’s activity providers.

The space is extremely versatile - both indoors and outdoors! Has a huge garden with beautiful trails that take you to more benches and communal seats, as well as lots of fun activities for children and a greenhouse space! Would be equally perfect for any setting - work or a celebration.

Children's Party · 20 guests · August 2024

Small childrens party hosted by Elizabeth from Vintage Playroom. Have had compliments from every parent. Children had the space to run, play, discover and use their imagination. Was wonderful to see children that don't generally mix at school, play so well together. Each area discovered became a new adventure. Elizabeth did a grand job keeping them entertained and active. Cannot recommend highly enough.

I was hosting my friend's Arts & Crafts baby shower here. She was delighted! The Rotunda is a hidden gem. We were warmly welcomed by the team. It was very simple to book. They responded quickly and efficiently. Ella went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful time! The cost was very reasonable considering we had the venue to ourselves and were looked after so well. Cosy and colourful!
