Canon Frome Court is a perfect rural venue for workshops, meetings, courses, receptions and events of all kinds.
Our community-run charity, The Frome Society, (Registered Charity 510337), hosts regular events and workshops.
The rooms available for hire are on the ground floor of the house and consist of the following:
The Meeting Room (20’x 31′) Maximum capacity for workshops – 20, for dinner – 60
With its high acoustic-panelled ceiling and Georgian windows looking out onto the front lawn and lake, this light and airy room is suitable for all kinds of activities. It hosts open mics, dining, meetings, breakfast clubs, and all types of creative and social workshops and events. It has a wood burning stove and polished oak flooring. The windows have curtains and shutters that can be closed to exclude daylight. Ideal as a space for workshops and rehearsals, meetings, classes, exhibitions and dinners.
The Hall (75’x 37’x 20′ high) Maximum capacity – 125
The hall provides a flexible space for a variety of events. In 1914, it was originally built as a Music room and the acoustics are sublime for all variations of musical experiences! It has since been used as a banqueting hall, badminton court, gym, theatre, and an art, music and dance space. There is a mobile platform stage and wall bars that can be pulled out to 90 degrees to create smaller spaces. The hall is well-lit with a sprung wooden floor and tall shuttered windows on three sides.
The Kitchen (20’x 22′)
This large and sunny room has a small dining area with views to the church, fields and Oak avenue. It has fitted cupboards and plenty of work surfaces, as well as a new large cooker, fridges, freezers and basic cooking utensils, crockery and cutlery for 100 or so people. Groups can be self-catering or we can arrange catering as required.
Outside
Space outdoors is also available by special arrangement.
Fees
What we charge for the use of the space varies considerably according to the size and needs of the group.
