Welcome

All Saints & district Village Hall pride ourselves in being one of the best value and most accessible halls in the district and welcome bookings from everyone, including people further afield.

Covid-19: Our Hall Is Now Closed

 

It is with regret that, due to the Covid-19 virus, our hall is now closed to all users. We intend to review the situation at the end of May but, being honest, we also have to admit that this closure is highly likely to extend beyond this date, based on current predictions regarding the expected progress of this disease. We will keep you informed regarding further developments so please check again in another two months’ time and, in the meantime, keep safe and well and our best wishes go with you.

All Saints Village Hall is a charity and Hall – serving the hamlets of All Saints, Alston, Churchill, Smallridge, Coaxdon, South Common and Waggs Plot, in the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty of the Blackdown Hills, near Axminster, East Devon.

 

The Village Hall is a hive of activity and a central hub for community life. 

 

Built with the help of local volunteers, our building was proudly opened in 1974 and is undoubtedly one of the cornerstones of our local community, where events of a wide-ranging nature take place almost every day. Locals can take advantage of our large car park, spacious interior including an offset bar area and separate large kitchen.

 

Regular customers include the village school, a local arts group, the Quilters, COGS ladies’ group, dog/puppy training groups and martial arts classes while also providing a regular rehearsal space for the All Saints Offbeats and The Three Counties Band.

 

We host the village show, All Saints Pantomime, the annual village Christmas concert, weddings, private parties for both old and young and Parish Council meetings throughout the year.  In addition, we run our own fundraising events to ensure the Hall remains excellent value to hire for everyone in the community. 

 

Our diverse range of customers and activities goes a long way to showing our flexibility as a venue while the Hall Trustees strive to further improve  our facilities, the latest example being the introduction of a fully integrated audio-visual system and broadband Wi-Fi.

​

Our Ambition

 

We strive to provide a welcoming, convenient and inviting space in the heart of our community for the enjoyment of local residents and the wider area at large.
