Linton is less than 2 miles from Junction 3 of the M50 and the Hall is situated in the centre of the village, next to St.Mary’s Church.
Built in the 1870’s, the Hall was once the school, and it has two main rooms, its’ own walled garden and car parking facility for approximately 20 cars. The gardens are well-maintained, enclosed by stone walls, and feature mature trees, flower beds and a lawn, making it ideal for outdoor events such as garden parties, fetes, and barbecues. The Main Hall and smaller Committee Room are ideal for classes, business meetings, regular bookings and special events; from a children’s party (the ceiling is high enough to accommodate a small bouncy castle), to a special birthday party or even an engagement/wedding celebration.
It has the capacity to hold 120 people standing, and will comfortably sit 60 to 70 people. There are projection facilities, skittle alley, and PA system. There is enough crockery and cutlery for 100 people which can be hired at a nominal charge. The kitchen is fully fitted and contains a cooker, fridge, freezer, coffee machine and a microwave.
