Whether it’s a milestone birthday, anniversary, family celebration or simply an excuse to get everyone together, finding the right venue can make all the difference.
At The Boars Head Hotel, we host celebrations and events of all shapes and sizes, with flexible food options, plenty of space and 23 guest bedrooms for anyone wanting to make a night of it.
A Venue for Every Occasion
No two celebrations are quite the same, which is why we offer a range of options to suit different events.
From birthday parties and anniversaries to private dining, banquets, family gatherings and other special occasions, our experienced Events Team can help you plan an event that works for you.
Whether you're picturing a relaxed afternoon gathering or a bigger evening celebration with music and dancing, we'll help you bring everything together.
Food to Suit Your Celebration
Food is always an important part of a good party!
Our event options include afternoon and evening buffets, traditional afternoon tea and our three-course Function Menu, giving you the flexibility to choose something that suits the style of your occasion and your guests.
Our three-course menu includes a choice of starters and mains, followed by a selection of our homemade puddings on the day. Children's options are also available for younger guests.
For a more informal get-together, our buffet options are perfect for bringing everyone together without the formality of a sit-down meal.
Make It a Proper Party
Want to get everyone on the dance floor? You're welcome to arrange a DJ, singer or band, and we can also recommend a DJ if needed.
You can decorate the room too, whether that's table centrepieces, balloons or a balloon arch, and you're more than welcome to bring along a celebration cake. A black and white dancefloor is also available as an optional extra.
Drinks Packages
If you're planning a larger celebration or sit-down event, we also have a choice of drinks packages available alongside our Function Menu.
Options can include an arrival drink, wine for the table, water and a Prosecco or Champagne toast, helping you get those little details sorted before the big day.
Stay the Night
One of the biggest advantages of holding your celebration at The Boars Head is that there's no need for the night to end early.
We have 23 guest bedrooms, including Double, Twin and King rooms, available for you and your guests. It's ideal for celebrations where friends and family are travelling from further afield – and means nobody has to worry about the journey home after the party.
