About this space

The Lounge & Conservatory is a semi-private conservatory area in the pub, defined by a long, glass-roofed run that brings abundant natural light into the space.

Design: The space features patterned tiled flooring, mixed wooden tables and mismatched upholstered chairs in bold botanical prints. The layout is long and narrow, punctuated by rows of low-hanging pendant bulbs and dark-painted lower walls that frame the seating.

Features: The Lounge & Conservatory has a built-in PA system and speakers and permits own music or a brought-in DJ, plus venue Wi‑Fi. The space offers flexible tables and seating that can be rearranged for different layouts. The area is wheelchair accessible and served by a step‑free guest entrance and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a relaxed, social setting for seated meals or informal standing receptions that benefit from a semi-private layout and background music.

What sets it apart: Direct access to the pub's beer garden creates easy flow between covered indoor seating and outdoor space.

What guests say: The conservatory is supported by attentive, helpful staff during private events. The conservatory can become uncomfortably warm on hot days because several windows do not open.
