Kensington Gardens Square Garden

The Gardens are a wonderful pleasure for all of us. Key holders may apply to hold a party.

Parties with 10 people or above require at least 48 hours in advance agreement with the Committee. To avoid two parties on the same day, please check the on-line calendar for existing reservations.

There is a fee & refundable deposit which goes towards the upkeep of the gardens.

The key holder for any size event is accountable for their guests. This includes:

• Ensuring the garden gates are kept closed with someone organised to let guests into & out of the garden

• Keeping noise down so garden users & neighbours are not disturbed, most specifically in the evenings given the gardens act as a ‘bowl’ echoing sound to the houses surrounding the gardens

• Barbecues must be placed on the gravel not the grass & smoke managed so garden users aren’t disturbed

• Removing anything brought into the gardens most specifically furniture & all rubbish including cigarette stubs

• Using garden furniture within reason, which may only be reserved during the setting up process itself

• Returning garden furniture to its original position

And in accordance with the Garden Rules:

• No ball games or frisbees

• No music

• No pets

Garden parties and barbecues must end before 21:30 hours.

Party Fees

There is no charge for gatherings up to 9 people. After that the following fees apply:

• 10 to 25 attendees £75 (+ £100 deposit)

• Deposits are returned (circa 48 hours) against any damage & compliance with the garden rules designed for the comfort of all garden key holders

• Over 25 attendees, please email the Committee so we can agree how the event will be managed. A higher fee will apply

BBQs

• BBQs, regardless of numbers, carry an additional fee of £25 (no deposit)

• Event cancellations require 24 hours notice.

• We do not hold any additional furniture, gazebos or BBQ equipment due to the lack of space.

Risk & Responsibility
