Introducing Eaton Bray Village Hall


The hall was originally built during the 1960’s and has undergone a recent refurbishment. The interior is now one of the most modern in Beds, Bucks and Herts.

From its many windows, there are beautiful views over Ivinghoe Beacon and the Chiltern Hills. It is situated next to the Grade 1 listed 12C church of St Mary the Virgin.

The refurbishment has included installing a totally new entrance lobby, modern lighting, blackout blinds, new toilets, baby changing and facilities for the disabled, along with a meeting room which can double up for storage, use as a bar, or even a bride's room. There is parking for 70 cars.

The hall has a maximum capacity of 220 people, but can be subdivided to create any size space you require. A cool air system is installed to help keep the hall temperature comfortable.

We trust you find the information both useful and interesting and hope that you choose our hall for your event. It is ideal for any function be it a party, wedding, fitness class, business meeting, training day, fundraising, or other special events.
