St Mary Bourne Village Centre
WELCOME TO ST MARY BOURNE
VILLAGE CENTRE
St Mary Bourne, situated in the centre of the beautiful Bourne Valley, is inside the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, just 5 miles to the north east of Andover, close to Whitchurch and easily
accessible from the A34, A303 and A343 for county wide events.
The St Mary Bourne Village Centre overlooks a picturesque Recreation
Ground with adjoining lake, bowling green, new games & sports area with tennis court, play ground and Village Shop with Post Office. There are excellent car parking facilities.
Address: Bourne Meadow, St Mary Bourne, Andover, SP11 6BE
Although the Village Centre is primarily for the use of the local community, it is available for, and also welcomes, other outside
bookings. Hire charges are very reasonable and there has been little increase for some years (see under HIRE). The Village Centre does
have a Premises License which permits the sale and provision of alcohol for consumption on the premises.
Village Centre closure
During lock-down from 5th November to 2nd December 2020 the Village Centre is closed. There may be limited circumstances when the Village Centre can be used.
For further information please email smbvillagecentre@btinternet.com or phone 01264 738 158
Re-opening
We plan to gradually open the Village Centre again from 3rd December 2020 but that will only be for activities and events that are permitted by the government guidance that we need to operate under. This guidance is constantly being adjusted in line with the government’s recovery road map and more activities may then be possible, although parties and some other social gatherings may still not be permitted. This means that we cannot currently confirm bookings for definite but are pencilling in requests and will update hirers from time to time as restrictions change.

A large well-equipped kitchen and bar facilities lead directly off the hall. A stage is also available for those wishing to use it.

2. The Committee Room
This smaller upstairs room can accommodate 20 or so around tables, or 30 to 40 people standing.
With access to the kitchen and toilets downstairs, it is well suited for committee meetings, smaller displays, social occasions or buffet-type parties. 3. The Club Room
Larger than the Committee Room, having its own separate entrance from that of the Main Hall, the Club Room is self-contained with its own small kitchen and WC.
The Club Room can accommodate 30 or so around tables, or 50 to 60 people standing. It is ideal for functions for which the main hall is too large. It is especially suited for activities that involve children, such as discos and birthday parties. |
