Village Hall
Arncott Village Hall is a fantastic facility of which the residents of Arncott can be justifiably proud. Owned by the Parish Council it is leased and run by a registered charity - The Village Hall Management Committee (VHMC). The VHMC also form the trust board for the charity. The decisions of the trust VHMC are guided by a trust deed which emphasises the use of the Village Hall as a local resource for local people.
Meetings of the VHMC are held on the third Tuesday of each month and are open to the general public. If you would like to get involved with the hall committee, please come along to a meeting and introduce yourself. The meetings begin at 7pm and are usually done by 8.30pm.
Arncott Village Hall is a spacious modern building with high quality facilities available for a huge variety of uses. It is an ideal environment for hosting social, business, and sporting functions.
The main hall is bright and airy with a raised stage at one end. For meeting events there is room for 135 people seated on our cushioned seats. For other events the hall can comfortably accommodate up to 150 people. We can also provide both large and small tables where required. Outside the hall there is a patio and grassed area to spill out onto and an adjoining play park for toddler age children.
The kitchen area is large and well equipped with modern cooker and cooking equipment. There is also crockery, cutlery and tableware available. The double sink and dishwasher help lighten the load at the end of a busy day.
The Village Hall has a bar area equipped with a glass washer. Fridges are also available. It should be noted that for any event involving the sale of alcohol a licence must be obtained and the management committee can assist with that.
There is a changing area and shower within the building.
The management committee is fully committed to access for all and the hall is fully accessible for all mobility needs. The hall is equipped with a high quality internal sound system with zone control that provides clear high quality sound for hearing impaired users without hearing assistance. The sound system also incorporates an inductance loop for hearing aid and cochlear implant users.
There is a disabled toilet with wide door access and the area also contains discreet baby changing facilities.
The hall has easy access for loading and unloading and an adjoining parking area with ample space for most events. Although a rural village, Arncott is easily accessible from the A41. Hotels and bed / breakfast businesses can be found in the nearby town of Bicester.
