Private Hire
We used to be the old pumping station supplying water to the Watford area. In the early 1970s the building was converted to provide a theatre auditorium and rehearsal room and we’ve expanded over the years to include a number of multi-purpose spaces.
So if you’re looking for somewhere a bit different to host your birthday party or other special celebration then The Pump House is here to meet your needs.
To arrange a viewing or booking please call us on 01923 241362 or or fill in our quick hiring enquiry form.
Our facilities
Our Colne River Room is an ideal space to host your special event. The room has no fixed seating and chairs can be arranged in a variety of layouts as you require, with a maximum capacity of 140 (or 100 seated).
A small stage and PA system is included in your hire rate, perfect for your live band or DJ to entertain your guests and get everyone up and dancing.
A fully licensed bar is also included in your hire rate. It’s manned by volunteers so you would need to check we have people available to staff it before you make your booking.
While we have no on-site catering you are more than welcome to bring in your own food and refreshments. Whether just snacks, buffet or sit-down meal options, please speak to our team about your requirements and we can advise what would be possible.
The Colne River Room also has its own, separate entrance to the rest of the Pump House and a foyer area suitable for meet and greets and to use as a cloakroom for guests.
