The beautiful old school house provides a truly unique and unusual wedding venue.

We got married at The Old Parish Rooms this month (November 2024) and it was AMAZING. We planned our wedding in 12 weeks and only viewed one venue - as soon as we walked in we knew it was perfect for what we wanted - which was an intimate ceremony and meal during the day, and a big party in the evening! Staff couldn’t have been more helpful and incredible on the day, it was truly magical. One of the best things about the venue is the vibe that is created by having such an intimate (and beautiful) space, it meant everyone was together for the whole day and the dance floor in the evening was electric! We loved it, best day ever.
