Book from £125 Delivered & set up in Harwell · collection included

Harwell is really two places: the old village with its orchards and thatch, and the science campus down the road where half of Oxfordshire seems to work. We deliver party hire to both, about 13 miles from our Faringdon base, covering OX11 along with Chilton, Rowstock, East Hendred and West Hendred. Birthdays, fun days, christenings and everything between, delivered, set up and collected as part of every booking.

Harwell is about 13 miles from our Faringdon base, comfortably inside our free delivery area, so set up and collection are included like everywhere else.

The giant chess that Harwell books

A full giant chess set with its own board mat, laid out on your lawn, terrace or hall floor by us. It photographs beautifully, it slows a party down in the best way, and someone always ends up carrying the queen around.

Some hires make noise, this one makes a scene. A giant chess set turns a quiet corner of lawn into the most photographed square metre of the party. Guests who have not played since school suddenly have opinions about openings, kids commandeer the knights, and the board keeps drawing people in from the first drink to the last dance.

  • Full 32-piece giant set with board mat
  • Laid out ready to play at your venue
  • Wiped, checked and counted before every hire
  • Free delivery, set up and collection in Harwell

Venues around Harwell

Village Harwell parties tend towards gardens shaded by the famous cherry orchards, the village hall and the recreation ground. Meanwhile the campus end of OX11 is corporate fun day territory, where the 360 booth, silent disco and giant games bundle earn their keep. Marquee or meeting room, garden or green, we only need level ground and a normal socket for most of the catalogue.

Why book local in Harwell

Harwell people measure things for a living, so measure us against a national marketplace. Them: an unknown supplier, a vague delivery window, a helpline. Us: one van from Faringdon, a delivery slot we agree with you, and the owner who checked the kit standing in your garden setting it up.
