Workshop · 30 guests · June 2026 · Venue Hire
The space is perfect as a blank slate to tailor and customise to your event needs! Bec was also super communicative and quick to respond to any questions and concerns
Main points of criticism would be the bathroom not having its own source of light, and the quality of the tables and chairs. One of the tables was completely bent and unusable, and some of the chairs were a bit wobbly
