The Cricket and Community Pavilion

The Cricket and Community Pavilion in Little Berkhamsted has a beautiful position on the recreation field in the centre of the village.

Between April and September it is primarily used as the club house for The Little Berkhamsted Sahibs cricket team, with matches most Saturday afternoons. However, it is available to hire at other times and is particularly suitable for children’s parties and summer events as hirers can spill out onto the field.

Private parties, community events, childrens’ activities, dinner parties, and weddings have all been hosted at the pavilion over the last couple of years.

The main space in the pavilion measures 9m by 5.5m and can comfortably accommodate up to 60 people standing and 45 seated.

The pavilion has a modern fully equipped kitchen, a bar, which can be hired by separate arrangement, shower and toilet facilities, changing rooms, a large flat screen TV and step free access. Trestle tables and chairs are also available at no extra charge.

Free parking is available on the village recreation field.
