Toad Hall at Charlton Down Village Hall
About this space
Toad Hall is a large airy room with two separate entrances and a divider screen to enable a separate meeting to take place apart from the main meeting.
The room is carpeted and has a whiteboard for illustrations or projecting images. Toad Hall also has its own sink and light refreshment facilities to compliment the hand washing and toilet situated in a small adjoining room.
A broadband connection can be wirelessly enabled in all rooms and a laptop audiovisual projector and for those clients not wishing to use the whiteboard for the projection of images, a 72inch screen is available.
Prices
Toad Hall has a small kitchenette with kettles and crockery that enables hirers of Toad Hall to prepare light refreshments within the room itself.
No charge is made for the kitchen when used for preparing teas & coffees. The £10 charge is levied when heavy use, such as using the oven is required. Clients can book the use of the kitchen for the preparation of light refreshments. This use does not constitute “Exclusive” use of the kitchen, except where the wedding package is being taken, as we only have one kitchen and other clients may wish to use it as well.
If the hirer intends to make a charge for alcoholic beverages, the hirer may be covered by the Hall’s own license at a cost of £20.
