Looking for somewhere to hold a conference? A training day? A retreat? Yetholm Kirk may be the space you are looking for. We are located in a beautiful and relaxing area, surrounded by peaceful hills and stunning scenery. Yetholm is far-from-the-madding-crowd, but within reach of most of the Border towns and both Edinburgh and Newcastle are easily accessible too. Within the attractive building we have flexible spaces that can be adapted for a variety of purposes.

Immediately adjacent to the main space is a disabled toilet and our kitchen. The kitchen has been recently refurbished and has a cooker, fridge, coffee-making equipment, abundant hot water, crockery, knives and forks etc. We use the kitchen for preparing food, but if you prefer someone else to do the work then the famous Border Hotel is five minutes walk away where you can get a range of food and drink. More details can be found at their website - see HERE.
The main worship area has comfortable but moveable seating, which can be arranged to suite your purposes. Tables and display-boards are located in a cupboard at the rear of the space and are easily accessible - the photo on the left shows this space in use for a social event. We have free wi-fi access throughout the building and a state-of-the-art audio-visual system. There are three plasma screens at the east end of the church and another at the west end - these can be used for presentations or for viewing live-broadcasts from elsewhere. This area comfortably seats X people theatre style or 50-60 people cabaret style at round tables.

We also have an 'Upper Room' (only accessible via stairs) - this space also has a toilet. The Upper Room is, along with the main space, available to hire on its own, but should you wish to split into two groups then this space can also be used as a break-out space away from the main meeting space below - tables and chairs can be arranged as you please. As with the main space there is free wi-fi.
Free parking is available immediately outside the kirk yard.
