Our BBQ hire service covers every corner of Houghton Regis and beyond, from the historic town centre to the surrounding hamlets and villages. Within the parish itself, we serve the traditional hamlets of Sewell near the famous Maiden Bower Iron Age hill fort, Bidwell to the northwest, Thorn in its peaceful valley setting, and the old Puddlehill (also known as Chalk Hill) on Watling Street. Each area has its own character, from Sewell’s listed manor house dating back to the 13th century to the rural charm of Thorn’s farmland.
Just minutes away, Toddington Village Hall on Leighton Road provides an excellent venue with capacity for up to 120 guests – we regularly deliver here for celebrations of all sizes. The Parish of Chalgrave, comprising the villages of Tebworth and Wingfield along with Chalgrave hamlet itself, is equally well served. Chalgrave Memorial Hall is a popular choice for parties and events, perfectly positioned to serve residents from Tebworth (with its Queens Head pub) and Wingfield (home to The Plough). These rural communities value their village halls as the heart of local life, and we’re proud to support their celebrations with our BBQ equipment.
The proximity to Dunstable means many venues are shared between the communities – from the Grove Theatre which opened in 2007 to the various sports facilities that bring people together. Our service extends throughout the Luton/Dunstable Urban Area conurbation, understanding that while administratively separate, these communities are closely linked. Whether it’s the new developments north of Tithe Farm estate with 5,150 new homes planned, or the established Parkside estate with its London street names (a nod to the 1960s “London overspill” residents), we know every street and shortcut.
From large-scale events at Houghton Hall Park – that magnificent 42-acre green space with formal gardens, woodland trails and play areas – to intimate gatherings in the hamlet communities, we’ve got the right equipment and local knowledge to make your event special. We understand the area’s rhythms, from the Saturday morning Parkrun at Houghton Hall Park to the Busway schedule connecting to Luton Airport. Whether you’re celebrating near the Leisure Centre with its pool and sports facilities, hosting at the Memorial Hall which has served the community for generations, or enjoying a garden party in one of the quiet residential streets, we’re not just delivering equipment – we’re part of making your local celebration unforgettable.
Let's be honest – British weather at the foot of the Chiltern Hills can be as changeable as ever! To help you choose the perfect date for your BBQ party, here's what the weather typically looks like throughout the year in Houghton Regis. And don't worry, we've got gazebos at the ready, just in case those famous Bedfordshire clouds decide to join your party uninvited!
