A calendar everyone can see.
Display availability for your hall. Public events (trivia nights, fairs, open classes) show their full title so visitors can spot what's on; private rentals appear simply as ‘booked’, so renters can see availability without exposing personal details.
- Separate colors per room (Hall, Meeting Room, etc.)
- Block out for maintenance & holidays in seconds
- Set up repeat bookings for regulars (yoga, U3A, ...)
A proper website for your hall — free hosting included.
No theme files, no FTP, no third-party hosting bill. Click any element on your hall's homepage to edit it — the welcome message, the photo of the kitchen, the list of facilities. Your hall, your words. It's powered by our post home website builder.
- Free hosting and SSL, included with every plan
- Works with custom domain names (yourhall.org)
- Promote community groups and share local news
Welcome to Pepperton Hall
A central meeting point for residents and local groups. Rent the hall for wedding receptions, birthday parties, fitness classes — or just pop in for the weekly craft group.
You're always in control.
Using LemonBooking, you can set up an online hall booking form that matches your current workflow — including requiring customers to make booking requests that need to be approved by staff. You're never going to be stuck with a booking that you can't accommodate at your post home.
Automated notifications
You can set up the booking system to automatically notify you each time a customer submits a booking request so you can respond promptly.
Flexible calendar settings
You can choose how soon and how far ahead customers can make booking requests, and you can easily block out days where you know you won't take bookings (e.g. Christmas).
A printed rota for the key-holder.
Not every volunteer wants to log in to check what's on. Print a tidy weekly rota for whoever holds the key, unlocks for the cleaner and sets out the chairs — pin it by the door and everyone's on the same page.
- One-page weekly PDF for the noticeboard or kitchen fridge
- Shows each room, the times, who to call and any setup notes
- Have it emailed round the post executive committee automatically each week

Invoicing and online payments.
Give your volunteer treasurer an easy life. The moment a hall booking is approved, the system raises a clear invoice with your hall's logo and your own sequential numbers. Renters settle up by bank transfer — or by card if you allow it — and the whole lot reconciles itself.
- Simple, clear layout with sales tax details only when needed
- Add payment links so customers can pay online
- Friendly automated reminders for overdue invoices
- Syncs with QuickBooks, Xero and Sage

Member rates and everyone else.
Most posts charge members less than outside renters, and give regular community groups a lower rate again. Set up booking groups (Member, Community, Commercial and so on) and our post home booking software applies the right price automatically — no discount spreadsheet, no math on the back of an envelope.
- As many booking groups as your post needs.
- Charge more for evenings and weekends than weekday daytimes.
- Each renter only ever sees the rate that applies to them.

That special rate for the pre-school.
Do you have a long-standing deal with the local pre-school? Has the Auxiliary paid the same rate since 1995? Pin a private price to that one renter — it only shows when they log in, and never appears on the booking form for anyone else.
- Override the group rate for a specific customer.
- Only visible to that customer when they log in.
- Apply an end date for fixed-term deals.

Support that survives a post executive committee handover.
Post executive committees change, and the new secretary inherits the bookings. We set the hall up with you at the start and we're an email away whenever someone new takes over, so the handover never leaves anyone stuck. Expect a reply from a real person within one or two working days.
- We do the initial setup & configuration with you
- Email support for whoever's on the post executive committee this year
- Self-serve help center, YouTube videos & guides for new volunteers
- Screensharing for Gold plan customers
Hi! We've just gone live with online bookings. How do I set up our yoga class so it repeats every Tuesday during term — but skips the spring break week?
Hi Sarah — lovely to have you up and running! Quickest way: save the yoga class as a weekly repeating booking so the whole term lands in one go, then open the spring break week and remove that single Tuesday. There's a 90-second video attached — reply here if you get stuck.
Customer review from Trustpilot
“LemonBookings has been fantastic from first contact to going live. Before we used LemonBookings we used Microsoft Outlook. We looked at a lot of other hall booking systems but LemonBookings was the one that ticked all the boxes for us.”
Frequently asked questions
Anything we haven't covered, drop us a line.
Is there free post home booking software?
There's a 30-day free trial of the whole system with no card required, but it isn't free forever — running and supporting a post home booking system has real costs. Plans start low and are fielded for small halls, and the trial lets your post executive committee try everything before you commit a penny.
We're all volunteers with no IT person. Will we cope?
Yes. The system is built for post executive committees and post officers, not technicians. We do the initial setup with you so nobody faces a blank screen, and admin and editor roles let two or three volunteers share the bookings without anyone needing technical know-how.
How do renters pay for the hall?
Renters pay by bank transfer, or by card if you connect SumUp, Stripe, or PayPal — they just click the link on their invoice, with no account needed. Card fees go to the provider; we don't add anything on top.
Is there a post home booking system app for our phones?
There's no separate app to install. LemonBooking runs in any web browser and the calendar and approvals work on a phone, tablet or laptop, so post executive committee members can approve a booking from the sofa. It updates instantly with no app-store downloads to manage.
How much does a post home booking system cost?
Plans start at $265 a year for Bronze, billed annually. Your website, hosting and SSL are included, as are email support and the online help center, and there are no set-up fees. Halls letting several spaces or running ticketed events pay more; the pricing page sets out what each plan covers. Card fees, where you take card payments, go to the payment provider rather than to us.
Can we run our post home website on it too?
Yes — a post home website is included with every plan, along with hosting, SSL and the page editor. Each space's photos, capacity and prices are shared with the booking system, so you update them once and the website and the calendar both stay right. Most halls replace an ageing site rather than keep two things in step by hand.
Is it a post home management system as well as a booking system?
Yes. Beyond the calendar it keeps your renters and their contact details, raises and chases invoices, handles recurring bookings for regular groups, and reports on income and how heavily each space is used — so the post executive committee has one place for the hall's paperwork instead of a shared drive and a spreadsheet.
Ready to try LemonBooking at your post home?
30 days free. No card required. We do the initial setup with you so you're not staring at an empty system on day one.
