About Exclusive Hire (NEW.)
84 Banquet
200 Standing / Reception
When you book Exclusive Hire at The Fishpond, you get the entire place to yourself, from our restored ballroom with its spectacular vaulted ceiling right through to the sun-dappled terrace overlooking the Derbyshire hills. The main ballroom holds up to 200 standing guests for drinks and dancing, or we can seat 84 for a formal dinner beneath the original ceiling beams that have watched over celebrations here for generations. The space tells its own story through the weathered oak beams, the rustic log burner crackling in the corner, and the polished wooden dance floor that's seen countless first dances and farewell waltzes. Natural light pours through the large windows during daytime events, while candlelit tables create an intimate glow for evening celebrations. We set each table with proper glassware and fresh linens, keeping things elegant without feeling stuffy. Your guests can flow naturally between the ballroom and our Raft Dining Room, which offers a more intimate atmosphere with its own oak-beamed ceiling and character. The terrace becomes another room entirely when the weather cooperates, perfect for welcome drinks or catching some air between dancing sets. Just a short walk from Matlock Bath railway station with paid parking nearby, getting here couldn't be simpler for your guests. We've equipped the space with everything modern events need, complimentary Wi-Fi, a projector for speeches or slideshows, and a PA system that works brilliantly with live bands or DJs. Our kitchen can handle everything from formal wedding breakfasts to relaxed buffets, with vegan and gluten-free options always available. The entire venue is wheelchair accessible, so everyone can join your celebration comfortably. Whether you're planning a wedding reception, milestone birthday, or any gathering worth remembering, exclusive hire gives you The Fishpond exactly as you want it.
