This was the perfect venue for my sons 4th birthday. The room and facilities were perfect. The weather was amazing which allowed us to have most of the party activites outside in the lovely garden space

St Jude's, Southsea reviews
The procedure for booking was very straightforward and the assistance given by Charlotte was much appreciated. The Garden Room is a good, bright space for meetings and all the amenities that we required were in place. Thank ou.
A lovely peaceful sanctuary in the busy city. We hired the garden room with full use of the beautifully large adjoining garden. It was the perfect venue for our Granddaughter’s birthday party. With plenty of space for a large bouncy castle and lots of garden toys, some of which are available from the church itself. We met with Charlotte, who made the arrangements so easy and straightforward. The very adaptable indoor space was arranged just as discussed and with the use of a small kitchenette, and some equipment from the larger main kitchen, it made the party go perfectly. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire this great space again. It really is a wonderful venue for any meeting, party or special occasion.
