Meeting Room Event Facilities...
As the oldest living convent in England the Bar Convent offers unique surroundings and superb facilities for Daytime Meetings and Events or Evening Events in a magnificent Grade 1 listed Georgian building.
There are four meeting rooms available, each with their own individual character and all interconnecting, except the Boardroom.
- The Bedingfield Room - the largest of the rooms, formally the school refectory. This room runs parallel to the main Entrance Hall and is long and spacious
- The Aspinall & Gascoigne Rooms - more square with high ceilings and lots of natural light, these rooms were formerly a classroom and kitchen and make excellent training or meeting rooms, or breakout rooms
- The Boardroom - a truly traditional Georgian room with a fine oak table and chairs, seating up to 12 people in a more formal style
