We hosted a surprise party here and it couldn’t have gone better! The staff were amazing and super helpful, which made pulling off the surprise so easy. The venue itself was perfect: clean, spacious, and had a great atmosphere. Everyone had such a good time. Would definitely book again!

I actually hired the garden room and terrace, which is a lovely private space. And the team found us somewhere in the main venue after 11pm when the room we had closed.
