About this space

Our boutique community cinema features amazing surround sound and super comfortable sofas for you to enjoy feel-good classic movies every week. We show a variety of films from arthouse to the latest blockbuster, family screenings to feel good singalong musicals.

Our cinema is also available to private hire for £225 for two hours. We can also host kids parties in the cinema room on Saturday and Sunday mornings and during school holidays (we have been told the close proximity to a bar makes these parties rather more enjoyable for the parents!)

Drinks were wonderful, as was the atmosphere and screen
Took a while for cocktails to be made as there wasn't many people on the bar - ended up only being able to finish one of the two movies we'd planned

I hosted a birthday party for my daughter, and everyone had a wonderful time. The food was excellent, and the convenient parking made things even easier. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.

Fantastic evening! Great AV facilities, loads of food provided, really friendly service (shout out to Eva in the team who was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the organisation process). Fantastic value for money and will definitely be back with my team for a future viewing.
Add some salt and butter to the popcorn!

The Cinema was well maintained and it also includes a bar on the ground floor which was helpful for after celebrations. The staff were friendly and very accommodating - They allowed us to set up early and even leave a bit late. cannot find any faults and would 100% recommend.
