Germaine was an excellent venue manager who was great to work with and communicate with. The venue was beautiful and a great space for our event - we had lots of excellent feedback from colleagues and attendees appreciating the space and the food, too!
This space was everything we expected an more. We definitely needed more time that we bargained for but that was our doing. Definitely worth the money. Very versatile space and well equipped.
Selected this space for an exhibition for my birthday and can honestly say I'd love to use this space again - it was perfect. Not too big or too small, accessible location with loads of on-street parking within walking distance. Sasha is a gem!
Such a sweet lovely host and a beautiful space. We loved our time and would most definitely book again!!
Wonderful service, our host was absolutely lovely. They were very understanding of our last minute changes in numbers.
The location was nice and the staff were friendly. The food was nice. It was great that we only had to pay a £200 deposit.
Great service and really easy to work with. Ordered way too much food but it was all delicious. Team went out of their way to make it a great event
The studio was amazing! It was filled of excellent equipments. Quina was very friendly and helpful. I definitely go back! :)
