Venue Hire

The Forest Row Village Hall has been hosting events in the heart of the community since 1892.

Every week the hall is clean, warm, well prepared and ready for us to use. It’s a safe and comfortable space for this deeply connecting and meaningful activity to thrive in. We love it.

We loved having our wedding reception at the Forest Row Village Hall! The hall manager was very welcoming and helpful, and we have wonderful memories of our special day!

Nick & Jenni

I have been happily hiring the village hall for my ballet school for over 16 years. Both the Peter Griffits and Freshfield hall provide wonderful spaces for my children’s dance classes.

The Peter Griffits Hall continues to be a great venue for us. It is situated in a convenient location for students, and is close to all local village amenities.
