Fantastic venue, central location near parking, room was private, food was amazing. I had forgotten to mention some dietary requirements, these were sorted very quickly and without a problem. This was very much appreciated. The communication before and during the event with the owner was great, very friendly and accommodating. Absolutely no complaints, we will book this venue again for future events.
